Giant Bomb @ E3 2016 | WEED3

Wow, surprised at how down people are on that... thought it looked interesting and would take that any day over Dead Rising.
Which part looked interesting? When he kept stopping for no reason to shoot at the endless swarm of zombies? None of what happened in that demo made any sense.
 
That was a bit of a soft ending, all told.

Still, quite a show.

Kinda hoped for more of Persona 5 than just a second of Igor though. I think it had more last year, even. I wasn't expecting a lot (wouldn't have minded, though), but still.
 
No Persona 5, No Gravity Rush 2, no interesting indies I've never heard of. Not a great conference for me uh. More games I liked the look of at Xbox's, & I've never owned an Xbox.
 
TLOU's influence is everywhere in Sony's games. Lots of "realistic" cinematography, over-the-shoulder walking segments, grounded survival-ish combat, middle-aged bearded guys, dramatic monologues, etc.

All of that is fine, but there's not much variety. Kojima's thing looked crazy at least.
 
I'm honestly fucking shocked by the lukewarm reaction here and on stream. That was fucking fantastic. By far the best conference.
 
Very strong showing of retail software. No indie segment is weird. Not much talk on hardware or the system software or policies.

Kojima segment make it the best E3 thing this year.
 
Dammit, I want a beer now. Damn you Austin and Dan and your beer shenanigans.

I can't fucking wait to see the madness that Kojima has cooking.
 
That was a really middling conference. Some really interesting stuff in the likes of Kojima's new game and Horizon (obviously), but the PSVR stuff looked really iffy, especially considering two of the five games shown were "experiences." I'm definitely not sold on PSVR and even the regular PS exclusives they showed other than those I mentioned didn't really strike me as great.
