What if Sony decided to reveal PS4 Project Neo tonight with the same specs as Project Scorpio and is releasing on Mar. 2017?

I would say its stupid move. They need to show games and price to go along with Neo instead of announcing like MS did. For me, MS announcement is a bad move and they seem to forced (afraid of Sony PS VR and Neo momentum) to announce just to make Xbox one also powerful and supports VR from next year. I hope Sony goes with their own plans instead of bumping specs (which increases price, powerful console wont win and its affordable/balanced console which wins in sales) this year as they can launch powerful PS4(5?) in 2018-19 instead and they can easily ride with PS4 and Neo for next 2-3 years as they are in leading position.
 
A very subdued E3 so far.
EA and Bethesda just did what they always do.
Microsoft flopped trying to sell people on their new vision for the XBOX platform, without showing any especially new or compelling franchises.

Hopefully Sony will have some nice surprises to reveal, and show some promising new games.

I wasn't hyped for this E3 at all, figuring nothing would beat last year, and so far I'm justified (and thus not disappointed!)
 
man after ffxv TERRIBLE DEMO and scalebound's okay display

i fear for "future" action jrpgs

i'm really curious the direction god of war will go.

i'm halfway expecting a reboot with the story going a different direction in the middle of the game.

obviously kratos will have a female side companion, while killing hunky gods like thor
 
Somehow I think the Sony conference will also be a bit of a downer this year. No way they gonna hold the level from last year.

Kinda hoping to see RE7 at the conference. Was honestly expecting to see it at the MS conference.
They don't even need to be on the level of last years show like 3 new games with some gameplay and they already won

I have somewhat high hopes for Ubisoft tbh.
 
Nah. There really isn't a need to do that. They can release now and just be the big kid on the block for an entire year. When Scorpio is released, people will be so entrenched in their ecosystem, it won't even matter.

I meant locked in this early, if it's not coming till fall they don't need to announce it in June. They can still tweak things for several months.
 
Well, Microsoft's conference was completely disappointing, hopefully Sony has new games that haven't leaked.
 
No reason for Sony to try to match Scorpio specs. How many people will actually buy it? Neo upgrade will be enough especially with great first party lineup.

and it'll be affordable most likely.

To me this E3 hasn't been awful. It's just a bunch of updates on games we already know about so far.

Ubisoft will have the annual new IP but don't expect much in terms of newness from them.

Sony is really what I have no clue about. We've gotten so man teases but who even knows if they are happening.

It likely won't match last years (it'll be tough to match TLG, FF7R, Shenmue) but they have so many big games both announced and unannounced still that I think they have enough to not be anything like a downer. As long as they choose the right reveals.
 
I really doubt Sony has any new games to show considering what we know of the developers work timeline. The games we would see is Horizon, maybe some independent sponsored games like Abzu, perhaps Dreams and something new from Suckepunch.....

I wouldn't raise expectations to be honest, it's best that way, so we can get excited even if they showed something very little.
 
Xbox conference was bad IMO, Scalebound gameplay looked poor. Forza looked great but does a forza game come out every year now? I was expecting a new IP but nothing, been a little bit disappointed by everything so far from all conferences.
 
As someone who only games on PC, the Xbox conference was amazing. Gears 4, Scalebound, Forza 3, Dead Rising 4....all coming to Windows 10. I'm a happy camper. Plus MS will still receive money for their first party titles.

Seriously, I want L4D3 already. I hope it's announced at Sony's conference. If not, I'm gonna be super disappointed.

i dunno man. ps4 has done well partially because of the "better/most powerful" perception by both enthusiasts and regular consumers. word of mouth spreads. capturing the hardcore/enthusiast crowd is important.
 
IMO, Sony was smart to not show Neo this E3.

The Scorpio announcement was such a joke. I guess it's good for die hard Xbox fans but that's about it.

The best thing to do is to not expect it to match last year. That shouldn't be hte bar for any conference because it's going to be near impossible to clear.

Well we already know new games thats going to be in Sony conference like GOW4, Suckerpunch New IP and DDR(bend game). The main reason for MS conference was disappointing due to bad gameplay demos, no new IP's, no real exclusives(everything comes to Win 10) and no wow visuals. Hope Sony games does have wow visuals, better gameplay demos and fresh new IP's.
 
Me too. I'm excited for the For Honor campaign demo, the Watch Dogs 2 demo and they always come with a surprise announcement.

But if Sony has RDR they've already won.

sneaky press fuck hinted on Twitter we may be seeing their Pirate MMO game. Definitely gonna check out their conference now.

Sucker Punch is not even hinted to be at this years show... I think you are confusing them with Insomniac and their (supposedly) Spiderman game.

PS4 didn't sell better because it's the most powerful. It sold well because MS literally fucked up. PS4 was also $100 cheaper.

I doubt Sony is "spooked" they've probably known about Scorpio longer than any of us, and neo will be on the market for at least a full year before Scorpio even releases. Don't see how Scorpio will mess up Sony's business model with PS4.

Why is that disappointing? I don't own an XBOX buy I get to play XBOX's games now, plus MS gets more money. nothing bad with this, unless...
 
people expecting Sony to "save" E3 setting themselves up for disappointment.

Sony always wins, baby. Sony always wins. You can't beat Sony!

That conference gonna be

It might suck and I'll just have to live with that.

Oh, that could be great. Really liked what they did with AC4 so if it is built upon that foundation it would definitely have my interest.
 
Well, considering that Take-Two said that they're coming to E3 in a big way and that still hasn't happened yet, I think there's good reason to be expecting some good announcements at Sony's conference.
