The E3 '08 Sony Prediction and Discussion Thread

well, after what nintendo's doing atm and the conference for microsoft yesterday



sony can at least do no harm
E3 just isn't what it used to be. More new games really need to be announced.
 
Well, Microsoft and Nintendo had some pretty bad conferences, it's all on Sony to prevent this E3 from becoming a huge disappointment.
 
well MS conference was pretty bland and tame, apart from the FFXIII megaton
the Nintendo conference was the worst thing ive ever seen

let's hope Sony can redeem this E3
 
I'm going to go into this with lowered expectations, expecting the worst (i.e. the "leaked" conference). Despite the popular opinion, I thought MS' conference was horrible. Even the FFXIII announcement couldn't salvage that mess, since I do not care about RPGs at all. It's up to Sony to make this E3 worth it.
 
After Nintendo's underwhelming conference, if Sony can come out with some big new games, they could very well reverse the damage of the FFXIII announcement. BELIEVE


But sorry to Nintendo, I actually play the trombone, and honestly, I would feel like an idiot putting up the Wii controller and pretending it was a sax....

Edit: Let me correct myself. Underwhelming to the more traditional gamer.

MS wasnt that bad, the FF announcement made zero effect for me too (dont really care about RPGs let alone JRPGs :lol ) but the games they showed at the begining looked good.

IMO, MS conference peaked right at the beginning and tapered off. Nintendo's never peaked. :lol
 
After the facking awful reality check of Nintendo's conference, all I want to see is some decent content :lol Microsoft won in the drama stakes, no contest. I just want Sony to pick up where MS left off and show some nice games.
 
My prediction: The Official E308 Sony Conference thread won't be larger than the E308 Sony Prediction and Discussion Thread.

Yes. Why the fuck did they put the Wiimote to their mouths? What the fuck!

Even the Nintendo thread was bigger and that was painful to watch.
 
I know I'm in the minority here since I don't play RPG's, but the FF thing is sort of meaningless to me. Although I'm sure I'll be hearing about it from my friend at work who claims it and Metal Gear are the only reasons to own a PS3.

Sony just needs to show a GOW3 teaser and they will be redeemed in my mind. Add something from Uncharted 2 plus more footage from Infamous, and I'll be really happy.
 
personally, god of war 3 is what i need sony.
as for the rest of gaf/gamers to be satisfied, you better show more than kratos's return...
 
My bold prediction for Sony's conference:

They'll talk about how they're beating Microsoft in sales, but unfortunately forget about Nintendo. They'll show some footage of games we already knew about, and announce that they're working on Home and it'll go into beta some time in September, maybe. Everyone will cry.

What defines save?

People are expecting surprises.... that's where we all fear they won't deliver. We are already expecting all the things listed throughout the thread as a bare minimum to make up for the massacre yesterday.

I just can't help but feel pessimistic.
