Sony E3 2014 Conference Thread
- Thread starter ULTROS!
- Start date
Main takeaway:
Must have been awkward as a motherfucker in those places for the middle half of that. Someone teach these people pacing.
Nintendo please
people went to theaters to watch this...

It dragged a little but good nontheless. And im not sony fan.
Too little surprises maybe and too much exclusive this exclusive that (for some time). The games that showed were impressive, if those are real uncharted graphics (although I dont think so), oh my.
Little bit surprised with the grim fandango remaster. in a good way.

Rather disappointing and similar to the MS conference, some games that looked great when we saw actual gameplay footage, plenty of disappointment in seeing too many cgi trailers of games with vague 2015 release dates and a lot of stuff I'm not that interested in...Sony ending on Uncharted 4 just rounded that feeling off too, I've played through them and just never really understood the love they get.
There are the odd few games that do look fantastic for both PS4 and XBO though and the Grim Fandango announcement was also great.

Conference was ok, bit bloated, 2014 wasteland wasn't really filled out. Not a big fan of LBP. Best games were third party (MK and AK), but I plan on picking this up on PC. Having doubts Uncharted will make 2015. Some of the indies looked good but there wasn't any "gotta get this" exclusive PS4 ones. TV talk (please don't deny this, it was there and occupied a good portion of time) & other talking points. Bloodbourne needed some gameplay footage, guess I'll go look up the leak now.
So far, from a primary PC gamer perspective/PS4/3 owner,
Microsoft >>> Ubisoft = Sony >>>>> EA
Looking forward to Nintendo.

Sony's 2014 lineup is pretty terrible...

Underwhelming for sure. Only Bloodborne (and mayyyybe Uncharted 4) really has my interest and there wasn't any gameplay footage, which sucked.
Screw TLG, where was Deep Down? :S

Average, mediocre conference. Very boring at times, and there was some terrible things shown, such as LittleBigPlanet 3. Bad pacing; the movies/TV part derailed it. Didn't care for mostly everything they showed.
The highlights were the indie montages, including Devolver Games, Grim Fandango announcement, and No Man's Sky.
That, and the meltdowns about no The Last Guardian

EA: N/A (didn't watch)
Ubisoft: C
Sony: C
Somebody save this mediocre E3 please

I did not think this one would be worse than Microsoft's, but it was. This one had just as many third party games, but also a heavy dose of back patting, and boasting, and they still managed to have less exclusives than Xbox. I feel disappointed. Both conferences were bad, but Xbox came out ahead, they never lost momentum and only showed games. To Sony it was all about talking.

Sagged horribly in the middle but it was solid overall. I personally thought the MS & Ubisoft conferences were a little better though.

Well, nothing blew me away.
I think it's a tie between Microsoft and Sony.
Clearly 2015 will be the year of reckoning.

Underwhelmed honestly. Not a bad conference, I just wanted a little bit more. Just one big bomb would have done it.

Agree with that list. SOny had soem great stuff to show, but not only was the presentation very, very boring, but they didn't show TLG after the stink it made this weekend.
And the Vib Ribbon cocktease just dropped them even lower for me.

I really liked conference and genuinely laughed at some spots. Solid A from me.

Pretty great conference overall. Nothing too major for me, but a few of the indie titles really caught my eye. No Man's Sky, I'm looking at you.

That was great, lots of exclusives and you just have to talk about the tv stuff a bit like they did, Im interested in that stuff also personally, you can see the raw power of this machine, I give the show a A.

Bullshit. Don't make me avatar quote you.
"Game after game" except for the 45 minutes of droning. The first half was strong, but then they completely killed the momentum with garbage PR in the second half.
Last Guardian is still probably dead and I don't care what Sony says.

Nothing Sony showed made me want to buy a PS4 this year. Conference would have been fine but that middle section was so bloated and the technical difficulties really made it feel amateur.
Still, a white PS4 and Destiny is kind of tempting....

What's with shitposts like this? I thought ConsoleGAF wants to be taken seriously.
Also....
Pretty damn good conference, definitely the best of the show so far. Ton of games, a lot of which look great -- No Man's Sky was especially impressive, but the Arkham Knight gameplay and Uncharted 4 reveal looked fantastic too. Also really enjoyed the spotlight on indie games.
My only issue with the conference was that it ran too long and definitely didn't need to be upwards of 2 hours. But all in all, I liked what I saw. Another good year for Sony.

Both conferences were very similar. No real megaton surprises as everything was either leaked or heavily hinted at.
Yet both still showed great games.
Not sure how to feel. I was hoping for one of them to drop a major bomb. But again, what was shown at both was still good.
