Sony E3 Conference 2016 |OT|

What are you most excited for?


Results are only viewable after voting.
I might get the Crash remasters. That's probably about it as far as games that got any sort of stage presence (though that barely got any).

Conference itself was solid though, apart from the weak ending.
 
Score compared to other conferences this year 20/10

On it's own, it's a 9/10 conference, amazing and one of the best I've seen, but needed more games, could show P5, GR2, some anticipated indies, otherwise it was amazing.
 
Eh... I still think MS had the better showing.

Sony VR looked bad and if it's going to be "experiences" and not games then count me out.

Horizon looked good as did the spiderman game. That was about it to me.
 
I don't really know why they don't reshow many games with new footage, or relegate some to tiny snippets in a reel. Could've shown trailers for P5 etc.Very short for Sony, not even a graph
 
Really? A 9 for Sony and 5 or below for everyone else? God of war was the best part. Horizon looks good too. But the rest wasn't mind blowing. Crash is just remasters. Not even a new one.

I would give Sony a 7/10. MS a 6/10. If I were to grade the two myself.

Funny. All people trolling down this good conference have Gears or Halo Avatars. Just saying :)
 
Few expected Rockstar to show up

It's real to me, damn it!

But really, it was a good conference. Strong start, the VR stuff is when it lost a bit of steam, but it stuck the landing well enough. I liked that it was basically "we'll let the games speak for themselves" rather than the usual stuff.

I'm legit a bit disappointed at the lack of some big surprise like Rockstar or something, after all the speculations. But I ain't even mad, really.
 
In my opinion that was a terrible conference. They showed a lot of cool games, which is great, but they didnt really have any talking hype to go with it, kind of just a long list of trailers.

Excellent games were shown, dont get me wrong, but as a conference it was kind of terrible. haha.

What the hell am I reading.
 
RE VR and the Kojima game probably grabbed me the most. I hope to God Spiderman is not PS4 only, I don't think a Marvel game has ever been console exclusive before, correct me if I'm wrong.
 
Good Conference, specially if you compare it to the others.

Did what I personally like which was showed content without much interruption.
 
Standard reminder to all that E3 is a NA event and the games presented are for that audience. You get on Gravity Rush, Persona, or Japanese, well, anything, because those are extremely low volume games compared to what got shown. Hell, Gran Turismo is Sony's biggest IP and has a release this year and it got 3 seconds in a montage. They're showing what the target audience wants. They're here to sell Americans on games.
 
Klepeck has a point on twitter: Microsoft showed off more stuff we'll actually be playing soon. Sony's conference was mostly spectacle. Most of Sony's games won't have real release dates for a while, probably won't be out before next E3.
 
HORIZON has already tons of trailers and gameplay footage

Your point doesn't stand
Horizon is one of Sony’s biggest IP though, Gravity Rush is likely going to appeal to Japanese gamers first, I’d say expect it at TGS or something. Then again, maybe it’s just not ready yet? I dunno...

I love GR btw, I’m just saying I don’t get people knocking a conference for games that are already announced. I would have been fine not seeing Horizon again. Same for the MS people asking about Crackdown, I mean, it is coming...lol
 
8/10

+Horizon
+Spidey
+Kojima
+RE7

-The only thing that looked good about God of War 4 was the graphics
-Days Gone bored me
-Crash
-No DMC or FROM game
-No Persona
 
Didn't have the spectacular announcements as last year but a better show.

God of War 4
Days Gone
The Last Guardian
Horizon: Zero Dawn
Detroit

All looked incredible.

Resident Evil VII
Spiderman
Death Stranding

Crash return was cool as well though only remasters.

So many amazing VR games, holy shit. PS VR was the Star of the show for me.

Overall amazing conference.
 
COD looked fun. Gave me Ghosts vibes with the space combat, though also some Black Ops 3 vibes at fighting robots, and Reach vibes at "hey, here's some space combat too".
 
9/10

days gone gameplay was underwhelming.

If last year wasnt the year of dreams then e3 2016 would have easily been elevated. No messing around rapid fire trailers and gameplay. Great stuff. Best pacing theyve had in a conference.

So Sony took e3 by neck and held it down 2 years in a row good stuff.

I want to play Spiderman ps4 so bad.

Time to rewatch all the trailers now that this is over.


-1 point was for no Gravity Rush 2
