Watching The Last Guardian on big screen will be amazing !

I admire your optimism.

 

[djplaeskool]

I'm in.
I had a fun time last year.
The atmosphere of the event definitely changes when you're in the midst of a congregation of fellow gamers.

 

[ViciousDS]

You're with fellow PlayStation fans watching world premieres and announcements live. Everyone reacting and getting hyped is worth it.

and that BO smell......it was strong with this crowd lol.....can't miss out on the feeling of possibly dying breathing through your nose.


Was fun, but not driving an hour again for it this year.

 

[darkwing]

jelly of the swag

 

[BronsonLee]

At least people have an idea of the swag level this year, too. Last year got out of control!

 

[Choomp]

I'll try and get tickets if there's any near me. Sounds like a lot of fun.

 

[Americanmushroom]

I can do all that in the comfort of my own home. It's like going to the cinema, just to watch trailers, or random adverts... why... just why....

Ok I'll try to make this clearer:

- To enjoy a giant screen instead of a small computer screen
- To enjoy better sound and picture quality then in your own home
- To enjoy the presence of other PS fans aroundyou being excited about the same stuff as you. ( Its like seeing a disney movie in the theaters and having a bunch of kids around you laughing, its great dude)
- To enjoy doing something outside instead of staying home in sweatpants like all the other days
- To enjoy doing something different then usual, takes you out of the routine
- To enjoy TLG trailer at its fullest

 

[Trevelyan]

Think I'll hop in this year - unfortunately couldn't make it last year. Hopefully they have one either in south bay or on the peninsula - I really don't want to have to drive up to San Fran to watch it.

We didn't have that problem in our theater

But there were a ton of people, I think some of those who didn't sign up in time had to sit on the sides and the floor lol.

 

[MastaKilla]

The return of Socom, book it!!

 

[Signet Son]

Please come to Indy!

 

[A.J.]

Are there theater listings yet?

 

[ZarKryn7]

I had a blast last year, definitely going this year.

 

[Evo X]

I went to this last year. Met up with some local gaffers. Was pretty cool, but they had some intermittent issues with the stream. Not sure if I will go this year.

But I will be super pissed if they give away Uncharted 4 beta access or something and I miss it.

 

[brickwalker0]

I still dont get how this type of thing is fun.

i went to last year's and met a lot of nice people that share my interest/passion. the mortal kombat gameplay trailer was a lot of fun hearing the "oooooh"s and what not.

if you don't like people, i wouldn't recommend it.

 

[jackissocool]

I want to go but that trailer makes it seem like it's gonna be all Destiny DLC and Batman. Blah.

 

[BronsonLee]

IIRC, that came with the ticket signups.

I could see them doing UC4 alpha and/or SF5 alpha.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Probably safe to say that a Street Fighter V beta invite will be one of the giveaways.

 

[TetraGenesis]

Fuuuuuuuck YESSSSSSSSSSSS!

 

[pager99]

Great Now Sony just make the actual stream available on the actual fucking ps4, I'm pissed off hooking up my shitty laptop

 

[Kyoufu]

I can do all that in the comfort of my own home. It's like going to the cinema, just to watch trailers, or random adverts... why... just why....

You get to watch the megatons live with others.

 

[Nephtes]

Of course they would have it in Louisiana at someplace like Baton Rouge because of LSU and college kids...

But in June all the LSU kids will be back home in New Orleans... It should be there.

Good job Sony.

 

[Magnus]

YASSSSSSSSS

Excited. Great way to spend the evening after work!

Hoping Toronto lands on the list again....but I mean, it has to, right?

Edit- Surprised at all the grumps in here. These events are a ton of fun. You get to take in the spectacle, the highs, the lows, the megatons, the surprises, the embarrassments, all of it, with a live crowd. It's like real GAF. It was so much fun last year.

 

[bombshell]

I want to go but that trailer makes it seem like it's gonna be all Destiny DLC and Batman. Blah.

?

There's also footage from Uncharted 4, Bloodborne, Ratchet & Clank, The Tomorrow Children, Until Dawn, No Man's Sky, Star Wars Battlefront, Street Fighter 5, The Last of Us, Tearaway.

In a 1 minute trailer.

You expected them to reveal all their surprises?

 

[Cthulhu_Steev]

I still dont get how this type of thing is fun.

Ha, that's this guy's worst nightmare. If it was an xbone special he'd be all over it.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I admire your realism.

fixed.

 

[v1lla21]

There better be a theater in San Jose!

 

[iosefe]

it was a great experience last year, and i'm really excited to go again

 

[Elandyll]

I still dont get how this type of thing is fun.

Then don't go?

Last year was tons of fun and a great atmosphere. Hope I can nab a ticket next week (Also hope that there is an AZ location like last year)

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

Nice, I had a lot of fun last year, and the free swag was worth it alone.

 

[Owari]

... Nah. Much rather just go to the actual event.

 

[BronsonLee]

... Nah. Much rather just go to the actual event.

You know this is for people who aren't able to do that, right?

 

[HardRojo]

It would be nice if Sony LatAm could work something out and provide at least a couple of rooms in Peru

 

[AmanoBuff]

That's grea....

U.S. and Canada only.

..oh, ok

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

... Nah. Much rather just go to the actual event.

LOL, you act like it is an either/or for everyone.

 

[TheAbsolution]

oh come on, why US and Canada only again??!

Because IFAIK, the company they work with only does it for theaters in the US and Canada.

 

[pharmboy044]

Across Canada huh? Maybe this year they'll actually have it in more than two cities.

They did. According to the blog post, it's now in three cities.

Spoiler

Hey my fellow Peruvian! Yeah I also hope they did that in other countries. Living in Asia now, so the time is definitely conflicting.

Still, it sounds like a hell of an experience.

 

[pharmboy044]

The post says it will be available on the PS4 via the Live Events viewer.

There was a really good vibe in the theater last year. Cheering and excitement over certain games. It was a lot of fun to participate it and it was great getting to watch all the trailers on a massive screen

I'll be going to one of the St. Louis ones!

 

[Wakka212]

Was great last year!

15 minute drive, great energy and enthusiasm by the fans, and some free stuff. Can't go wrong there, perfect way to cap off work day filled with hype.

 

[Artex]

Cool, but I'd rather be at home and on GAF

Spoiler

watching it crash.

 

[RiverKwai]

Might be able to go again. Hope the stream is better this year.

 

[PshycoNinja]

I still dont get how this type of thing is fun.

Because you get to hang out with other people that share the same passion as you and you can take in all the reactions people are having to announcements. It is a good time. Provided I am allowed to, I will go again this year.

Cool, but I'd rather be at home and on GAF

Spoiler

watching it crash.

I checked in on GAF every few minutes in the theater too. It's not like you can't do that.

 

[iosefe]

who will be making this year's Spreadsheet?

 

[HardRojo]

Hey my fellow Peruvian! Yeah I also hope they did that in other countries. Living in Asia now, so the time is definitely conflicting.

Still, it sounds like a hell of an experience.

Hey there! Yeah, time would definitely be an issue for you guys living in Asia
It would totally be an amazing experience since I know plenty of people involved in the local media who are also videogame fans, plenty of them are actually going to E3 this year. Definitely a nice opportunity to watch the event with some friends in the big screen. Still, I'm planning to do something similar at my friend's building since they can accommodate their small projection room, kind of like a smaller theater, so there's that.

 

[pager99]

Oh shit my bad

 

[Conduit]

So, PSX come little earlier?

 

[Acquiescence]

It's cool that they're doing this again. Shame it's still only limited to the U.S. though. I'd like to be in front of a big screen when The Last Guardian is re-introduced to the world.

 

[VicDaMoan03]

How much are tickets? At work so I can't click the link.
