Support NeoGAF

[mozfan12]

I thought the God of War demo looked fantastic, even the story was interesting. Liked the whole dynamic between the kid and Kratos, I'm not even the biggest GoW fan and it definitely interested me.

 

[Miggy]

The ending was weak. Other than that, solid conference.

 

[Alavard]

They did nothing but show games. Less than 5 minutes of talking the whole time, and no damn buzzwords.

9.5/10 conference.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Holy shit at that conference.....

 

[Simo]

Enter the dragon said it to me bro, on Twitter.

Frankly I'm not getting my hopes up now.

 

[bender]

Missed most of the show and I know the answer is probably no but did Sony show Hot Shots Golf at all?

 

[Dash_Riprock]

No Neo news (as expected), makes me curious...

 

[Beats]

That was okay I guess.

More enamored by the art of some of the games than anything else though. Release dates look like they'll be fairly far away for most titles.

 

[Elandyll]

Amazing from start to finish imo. They even managed to get me interested in a COD game, which I never thought would hapen. I guess the Space Opera setting is more my thing

The only way they could have topped it would have been to have Rockstar presenting RDR or Agent, and a new price at $299 (I guess it will happen closer to the PSVR release).

Insomniac's Spiderman looks bonkers, Detroit, Days Gone, Horizon, Kojma game, TLG, RE7 VR ... Wow.

About the complaints of missing titles, Sony also has shows in Europe and Japan, so as usual they keep some things in reserve.
I hought not having GT Sport at all was a bit weird though, being confirmed for Nov 2016.

 

[Atomski]

Wow I didnt expect such a positive reception from this conference. I thought it was pretty mediocre..

 

[darksagus]

Some really cool games. The live orchestra was awesome, but the conference seemed short, especially compared to Ubi. No Persona was a bummer.

 

[Anarckhy]

Link?

[pompidu]

We're people expecting Jesus Christ to resurrect during this conference or something? It was great, they should nothing but games!

 

[Bluenoser]

Not really anything to get me excited except kinda Spiderman and RE7.

Meh.

That's what they are going for. Not everyone is going to like every game.

 

[Phediuk]

Sony utterly owned it this year. Better than last year imo.

 

[Mollymauk]

AAA games : Playstation
Indie games : Xbox

 

[Sparkedglory]

well... they're right you know

Oh I agree completely! Just didn't expect it.

 

[dyergram]

Weird watching this on giant bomb because I feel like they didn't enjoy the conference. Whereas I thought they completely nailed it again. Loads of games be looks amazing resident evil blew me away. As did gow and horizon the pacing was perfect I was waiting for the boring talky bit but it never came bravo Sony.

 

[Teknoman]

If you like games at all, aside from maybe the hardcore sports game fan, I dont see how this conference could have not caught your attention.

 

[RellyRell28]

Sony won based off the fact that they made me want to play CoD

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

In terms of how many games I will actually buy:
EA 0/10
Bethesda 0/10
Sony 3/10

I thought Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare looks really, really good. Like a Killzone game that was actually fun. Was shocked by that.

Horizon: Zero Dawn AND God of War both looked worryingly derivative. I don't really know about those. I'll probably wait out the hype and reviews for the long-term impressions.

VR looks good but I'm not getting VR on a PS4.

 

[thecouncil]

Hey, where's the new Red Dead?

 

[Morning Star]

People saying the conference was not the best showing we've seen this year.

 

[Vashetti]

Why did everything look like the Last of Us?

During the initial Days Gone trailer, I was thinking it was some sort of Last of Us teaser, looked really similar to the artstyle.

 

[Rellik]

Lol bad pacing😂😂. Wait u actually wanted to c people talk for like 10 minutes in between gameplay and trailers 😳😳

I think some people actually enjoy the padding crap that Ubisoft provides every year.

 

[Neonep]

9/10

Only con, NO GRAVITY RUSH 2 NEWS

Could be something at TGS.

 

[DJwest]

Where is Rise of the Tomb Raider PS4?

 

[Bsigg12]

No Neo news (as expected), makes me curious...

Andrew House last week said they weren't going to talk about it.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Respect on that pacing. I loved having game after game without some suit droning on for tens of minutes between each.

 

[KaYotiX]

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.

Yeah he made a great point

 

[Ramsiege]

Sad no update on Shenmue.

 

[Draper]

I was kinda hoping for a ps4 slim...my launch system is starting to die on me.

 

[NullPointer]

So...

When is God of War coming out?

 

[Pathfinder]

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.

Sony's E3 last year was the same way.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Some people are really salty at a good press conference. Fucking pathetic.

Some people have different tastes. I like quirky japanese games, of which there were zero (I'm not really counting FFXV as particularly quirky). Horizon looked interesting, and beyond that nothing else caught my attention. I have no attachment to Hideo Kojima as a creator, so his game trailer just left me bored and confused and with no idea what type of game he was even working on

 

[Hedrush]

What a show. The orchestra, the games, the whole presentation was just amazing. Good job Sony, a very good job indeed.

 

[Asriel]

Fantastic looking games, but very forward thinking. When will we play any of this stuff?

Agreed, good stuff but no idea when they will be released? That's a big negative for me.

 

[nnarum]

Funny. All people trolling down this good conference have Gears or Halo Avatars. Just saying

How did I troll? Just being honest. Plus I gave them a higher score if that kind of stuff even matters.

 

[eFKac]

The Last Guardian got completely buried for me. The fucking Last Guardian! What a conference!

 

[Nielm]

Graphically GOW put UC4 to shame.

Not really.

 

[CREMSteve]

They did nothing but show games. Less than 5 minutes of talking the whole time, and no damn buzzwords.

9.5/10 conference.

This.

I don't know how anyone can be disappointed by it.

Best E3 show ever, by a mile.

 

[haxamin]

2014: Why does Sony talk so frikkin much? Just show the games.

2016: They barely talked. Pacing is now ruined.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

i was so sure this year level 5 was ready, i guess there's always next year...

 

[LuuKyK]

New game after new game after incredible live demo after new game. That was crazy.

Only bad part was the not so good Days Gone finale, that zombie horde and infinite bullets just didnt seem that fun.

Easily the best conference this year though.

 

[Generic Power Ranger]

was 10 out of 10 for me. Wouldn't even have minded a few padding breaks where people talk.

It was an awesome conference. So many things I didn't expect. Days gone looks great !.. Heck, mostly everything showed looks great !

 

[Mixolydian]

MS gamer here. But...

Fucking bravo, Sony. Truly one of the most hype conferences I've seen.

Realllllllly want a PS4. Not getting one. But want to

Great conference. Congrats Sony gamers.

 

[Euron]

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 in the name of fuck do you expect from a games conference then?

"God of War 4 will be releasing today for free to all NeoGAF users"

 

[Elitist1945]

I just realized. Where was the UC4 DLC?

 

[Coffinhal]

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

The Last Guardian too is known and coming
Horizon is known and coming, had a trailer a few days ago
COD is known and coming too

 

[Camwi]

Sony's decision to use a live Orchestra was a good one. Live music has that special quality that pre-recorded lacks.

It really added so much to the gameplay videos.
