      What is a “state of play”? When googling a 2009 movie of that name seems to feature prominently on the results page.

        state of play is sony’s counterpart to “Nintendo Direct”. With the death of E3, all major companies have their own showcase of shows digitally, while some of them will just announce it in the general show (Geoff’s Summer Game fest, the “generic e3 show”)

        basically Sony if showing off their own games, has 2 shows:

        State of Play is sonys version of, includes 3rd party companies producing content on playstation

        Sony also has a different showcase called “Playstation Showcase” thats directed specifically to 1st party stuff

        just for completion sake, Microsoft’s game info show is called “Xbox Game Showcase”
