EA:3/10
Bethesda:4/10
Microsoft:5/10
Ubisoft:5/10
Sony: 9/10

Pros:
- KOJIMA REVEALING HIMSELF
- Resident Evil 7
- Spiderman
- Finally sold me on Horizon
- That fucking pacing
- NO corporate sales bullshit whatsoever

Cons:
- Not a massive fan of GoW
- Crash only slightly less disappointing than what we thought
- Didn't stick the landing

Now we just got Zelda tomorrow. If it's good as I hope it'll be then Sony and Nintendo, damn.

Not biased at all lol
 
Amazing conference. Very little talking, and tons and tons of games. Not just trailers even. Real honest to goodness games. Insomniac Spiderman is a dream team!
 
Weird Press Conference, little info, some great games here and there, but pretty underwhelming.

Not sure why they showed Days Gone for the closer, looked really boring.
 
Sony didn't just knock it out of the park, they knocked it into the next town over! Blow after blow of great looking games with very little talking in between. The only low points were Skylanders and the ending demo. Otherwise another stellar E3 from Sony! An easy 9.5/10! Nintendo can release Mega Arcanine for all I care tomorrow. Sony still wins.

Rankings:
1: Sony (9.5/10)
2: Microsoft (7.5/10)
3: Ubisoft (7/10)
4: Bethesda (5.5/10)
5: EA (2/10)
 
Good conference. Great showings like Horizon, that wierd Kojima game and God of War and some bad ones like that last of us wannabe game, Skylanders and another David Cage snoozefest


Rankings:
1: PC (9.0/10)
2: Ubisoft : 8.5/10
2: Microsoft - Sony (7.5/10)
4: EA (6/10)
5: Bethesda (5.5/10)

Now to see where Nintendo fits in
 
Don't worry Zelnick stated Rockstar will be there in a HUGE way... Amazing Rockstar doesn't make games anymore...

Must be some serious internal things going on inside Rockstar since no Benz....Oh well maybe 2020 for there first gen game...
 
It just goes to show - quality over quantity. Keep it neat. Keep it snappy.

I'm glad I miraculously got a perfect stream to experience it with - not a single stutter (watching on an Xbox One).

Day's Gone wasn't quite compelling enough to end on, especially considering that they revealed it earlier in the press conference.

A solid 9/10 press conference. No fat on it, but it didn't launch into orbit at the end.
 
It made me legit want ps vr, and was so fast paced great job Sony, not as mind blowing as last year, but that is not a fair comparison.
 
Ending with another glimpse of Days Gone makes it seem to me that there was something cut at the last moment. I wasn't impressed by it, but I don't like zombie games.

Last year's E3 felt somehow better.
 
You guys realize that only Horizon and TLG have release dates right? And TLG is only this year with Horizon early next year. Nothing else even has a YEAR of release. Did Sony get spooked by Scorpio and just blow their load and show everything even if its not near ready? Seems like 90% of those AAA's arent coming until late 2017 -18 at the earliest.

This right here is what really impressed me.
 
With the conference being much shorter than usual and MS announcing Scorpio there's gonna be a ton of speculation that they're rethinking the Neo.

Can't wait to get the scoop on what's going on there. It's supposed to be out in a couple of months.

People will be pissed if you need NEO to make the VR games look like that, but it was good for Sony to make sure people think that they'll all run like that on a base PS4. Otherwise they'd have killed PSVR at the knees.
 
Um...

6.5/10

- I 100% do not think the way they're going with God of War is a good idea. Going from a hack-and-slash to an over-the-shoulder action is just...man, that just doesn't work for me
- I can't imagine people wanted that out of Crash
- VR stuff in general was yawn
- Spider-Man looks pretty good, but I'm kinda sour on Spider-Man
- Horizon looked good, but I'm cautious over how it plays. It looked extremely weighty
- No indies
- No Vita (again)
- I need more on RE7
- Terrible ending. Just...terrible.
 
9.5/10

Only docking a half point because that was a poor game to end on. That and I'm not entirely sure I like the new direction for God of War
 
No RDR/RDR Sequel.

I know man I want it too.
 
Horizon looked interesting as expected. New GoW and TLG also got my attention. Nothing cringe worthy, even CoD looked good. 9/10 lacking FFT2.

Also, how come FFXV looks better on Sony stage than on MS? They really need to find a beeter player to demo everything.
 
Really great conference, everyone else should take note. Great pacing, no unnecessary blabbing, forced voice overs, cheesy dialogue. Just loads of cool looking games. So good.
 
A damn fine follow-up to last year's, ending was a little weak but was fine, a new GoW, Insomniac Spider-Man game, Horizon looking great, TLG got a release date, new RE game, Detroit and Day Gone both looking decent too.
 
Loved the Sony presentation - I would have liked some more talking about each of the games but still my favorite so far.

Really interested to see how much these single mission VR games are going to cost.
 
They had a much better presser than Ms, but their pertinence on having games that won't come out soon is soring me up.

Ms had a terrible presser, that actually took some of the hype away from me, but it was pretty much: Here's what you are going to play this year (With the exception of Scalebound, but even that is early 2017), and that lineup sounds amazing.

Sony having a exclusive Spiderman is a huge win though, it's gonna sell gangbusters no matter when it releases.
 
I didn't think I would be surprised by anything this year but I really liked that conference. More than a few things I wasn't expecting to see or to be introduced to.

FFXV VR...yeah, no
I'm not liking how much the word "experience" gets tossed around.

Insomniac Spiderman game ma be the best thing I've heard about so far. They will crush it.

Days Gone is weird. At first I wondered why when you have the Last of Us.
Then I was waiting for some kind of twist so it wasn't just a zombie game.

By the end of that trailer I was into it and kind of impressed. We shall see

The last Guardian gets a release date!
 
It was easily the best, but that's more a testament to how awful the rest were. I wasn't really that surprised by anything but Kojima and Death Stranded. Vita on suicide watch, JRPGs shown the door.
