Same here. So many posters missing the larger picture with this and assume everyone on the planet cares that they "could" have just build a PC, without thinking about how most people don't care that much about video games and want options based on what is easiest or cheapest for them. Microsoft wants xbox to be a platform and for people to upgrade or not as they please. People are too caught up in being console warriors trying to find any possible negatives in the MS "strategy".

Microsoft's conference was really good for what they are pitching, moving away from the legacy of Xbox One's launch, promising more impressive hardware and transitioning to the PC market.
In response Sony did exactly what they needed to do - games, games, games for the 40m+ people who have already invested in their platform, which has melted away fears of the upcoming Neo.

Indeed.
Giant Bombs coverage of the pressers have been awesome so far.
The voice chat bit in the Ubi Wildlands presser was hilarious!
Haha. They learned from last year and disabled comments.

It's going to have a sad ending. It will be so easy to evoke those emotions in people when you have played the whole game with the rat bird and you have that kind of soundtrack.
Oh yeah, either the kid or the bird will die.
Nah, that's just the livestream archive. The regular one has comments.
I hope you're right because I'd love to see the game get more attention

I could give a shit about any company and think Sony had more game I'm interested in but I'd say MS had a better conference where Sony had a Sony Direct that they were pushing as a Conference and it ended up being a bad conference with great games.
I would have taken that Sony Direct at any point of the year, but it just wasn't a good conference for E3.

I hope it's the kid.
That kid in God of war will be lucky to last beyond 3 hours I reckon.

The creature. It will be like The Road crossed with Pete's Dragon where the kid has learnt to care for himself with the help from the rat and there will be a touching scene of him taking his last breaths with the kid hugging him or some shit and I'll be crying like an idiot.
You will last long around here. I can feel it in my bones.
E3 is the best time to show upcoming games that will get people excited about the platform. It's the time of the year when you can reach the most consumers.

Maybe he didn't realize how GoW, Horizon and Days Gone were all being played live? I don't know how that, all scored by a live Orchestra, is supposed to be just as good as a Direct thing.

Real insightful comment. I don't even know what "SJW garbage" you might be talking about here.
Thinking about it, it might be better even. I know there's so many games that I find interesting from the indie showcases and the like at these conferences and totally forget about them as they just get lost in the noise. If they do give it some time and say it's already available, I'd be down to grab it right there and then.
Southern Jeff Warrior? I dunno, I thought that segment during Ghost Recon was pretty good.
South Park bro.

What the hell is SJW?
Edit: Oh, just looked it up. What a dumb comment.

Maybe the twist is mild-Kratos dies and that makes his son really, really angry.
Shiiiiiiiiit, I missed that yesterday.

I think its the newest form of Super Saiyan.
Social Justice Warriors. It's what reactionaries call people who care about other people.
Social justice warrior. No idea what it's supposed to mean in this context lol
Or they both live but the world is destroyed ala Never Ending Story and they live on a rock in space forever, alone, sad.
Hoping its not too cheap. I am actually interested in the game now, but lord knows I wont have the time to play it.

Super Jumbo Wallet.
Talking of wallets, I recommend people looking into Mighty Wallets. Pretty neat things, but not as your go to everyday wallet.
They hit that demographic hard didn't they.

That's someone's throw away account if I've ever seen one.

finally finished up watching my quota for today. Pretty happy with the entertainment factor this year. Maybe next year if I have a job I'll take the time off, definitely not the same just crashing on my couch after work compared to the last three years staying up until 4am in the crisp led lights of my monitor

I think South Park fans are more touchy than most other fans. Even anime.

I understand that but while there is some stuff to get excited for there was a lot more to have questions about that just wasn't answered or conveyed really well. That seems like a poor job.

I should get on that, PC2Respect has given me a lot of amusement
I think anime fans are just used to being berated by now. This is the first swipe at South Park fans.
Right in the bulls eye. And that season didn't really end up in their favor, but all they see is the PC Principal and OH MY GOD HOW FUNNY LOL etc. It has been a ride to see the South Park community transform.
