I'd rather they show a gameplay trailer tbh - we can see all we need to that way instead of a bloated onstage demo. Unless the gameplay is like... completely unlike the previous games in the series, which is unlikely.

In a dream world, Valve helps designed the new PS4 UI. Gabe is introduced to give a quick briefing of it and as he scrolls around you see a crowbar with a 3 and he says "whoops didn't want to see that yet?" and leaves the stage.

I think they want people to stream them later through PS Home (btw, been there yesterday for the free theme, and really disliked it - too many pervs around).

I really hope they don't spend too much time on awkward stage demos during the conference. No one wants to see that...
Totally agree.
Unless what they're showing is super innovative and different to the kinds of gameplay we've come to know and expect, there's no reason at all to have stage demos. Especially considering most demos we see are just scripted up to the eyeballs from start to finish.

I am really surprised how QUIET Ready At Dawn is, absolutely zero hype from those guys.

They should just have a load of trailers, and have the gameplay demos at GamesCom or wherever.
Man, this thread moves fast. Caught up and lol at these two gifs.

Who knows what's going on with those guys, at one point their game was set to be on PS3 or am i remembering wrong?.

Why would Sony allow a competing digital platform on their console?

Gameplay demo of infamous is something I can't wait to see.
And ready at dawn being so quiet just makes me think they have something big coming and have instituted a nobody say shit policy.

Yeah, Sony listen to this guy right here.
I don't know, the Watch Dogs stage demo is just about the only lasting memory I have of E3 2012. Yeah, they're usually highly scripted but when done right they do way more to sell a game than some chopped up trailer.

Absolutely.
I want something simple but stylish. Something like the Xbone really, although that's a little chunky for my tastes.
Well, besides E3 2012 being pretty boring overall, that could have just as easily been a cool pre-canned demo. No reason to risk another Assassin's Creed II glitch or Modern Warfare 2 controller malfunction. Just record something, stress that it's real-time gameplay on whatever platform, and show it.
That Watch Dogs demo was awesome though. One of my most anticipated of this year.
Some devs really like to surprise people when they show things at E3, especially if it's at a conference.
ooooohhhhh giggidy

wonderful, thanks for chiming in
I wonder if Naughty Dog will show something? That might lead to a conflict of interest with RAD.

Nope, they're working on a next-gen game.
Lymle was the creepiest character ever.

I think a good 'chopped up' trailer is a better way of showing off a game than an on-stage demo, which offers only a very limited glimpse of gameplay. I'd rather see loads of characters/locales/elements of the game than a short sequence played on stage by somebody who looks as though they're about to pass out with anxiety.
Well, a pre-recorded playthrough is basically the same thing. Either way it accomplishes more than a 2 minute trailer.
kaaaaay~
Why would it be a conflict of interest? Not that I think ND will show anything, I think they'll reveal something at the VGAs like they have been lately.
good isn't enought!!!

while it's rarely the case, the Uncharted 2 live demo was freaking brilliant
The "when I'm alone I feel so lonely" line never gets old.
Yeah, that demo was really something else. A demo like that for Second Son would do wonders.

He has promised to drop another bomb (if he gets it confirmed) before Monday morning, but it will most likely be Xbone related.

My expectations are low. I'm just expecting this:
- Infamous
- Driveclub
- Killzone Shadow Fall
- Gran Turismo 6
- Naughty Dog new IP
- Sony Santa Monica new IP
- Destiny
- Watch Dogs
- PS4 reveal
Still, I'm excited for the conference - all the above games, to me, sound fantastic. So I couldn't be happier.

You can only do so much with the source material.
Then again they could have done a lot more.

Watch it be something else that got wrong with the Xbone.
This cutscene literally hurts to watch. It's one of the worst things I have ever seen.
One of the top rated comments on Youtube sums it up well.

No one other than the known players (like Evolution, Media Molecule, Bungie and Sucker Punch) are really making any noise about E3. Everything else is on lockdown.
Where?
