That was a conference...while what they showed was good it was almost like SONY didn't want to be there. hmm, its how to word but overall it was pretty weak compared to last year's SONY conference.

I think Sony didn't like the common criticism that they announce games that are still years off, so this year they kept it within a shorter time span.
But yeah you can tell it was middling from the audience. Maybe Sony will feel more comfortable following Nintendo and Bethesda's example?

That might be the first good Spiderman game since....what, Ultimate Spiderman?
Granted, this game was around 4 hours long.
Also, why Capcom?
Why?
Thanks man. Granted, it looks like it'll only be seasonal work, but it's work I suppose.

I am kind of surprised Dreams wasn't shown at all. I kind of wonder what the deal is with that game. I know they do updates all the time but I feel like Sony has given them an incredibly long leash in terms of producing actual money making content.
If you don't have at least one big surprise don't even show up.
Microsoft had one, only no one liked their surprise.
At least MS got to show Dragon Ball. Even though I'm just going to play that on PS4.
I'm not mad at this conference, just very disappointed. Mad would be something like the Kinect showcases or Nintendo 2010.

Not really feeling this E3 this year.
So far Dragon Ball is the only thing to really excite me and knowing Nintendo is probably only gonna show it's 2017 titles kinda kills the mood.
Hopefully I'm wrong.

Sony's Conference was okay. I think people set their expectations too high for some type of megaton, like them bringing Hideo Kojima on stage last year. I like the fact that they only announced games that actually are on the horizon, and not just starting development.

Yeah, that's also my sentiments on this year.
They won't be able to show much since it is only 30 minutes tomorrow
I think Monster Hunter looks awesome myself. Seeing the fact monsters can seemingly chase you to the ends of the Earth through all manner of areas and spaces was really cool to see. Looked like Monster Hunter meets Dragons Dogma and that sounds like a great combination to me. I'll wait to see more and hear others takes but it was honestly the coolest looking game shown at the Sony conference to me.
Ehh, never really liked Blazblue or the Persona fighting games.
Only really got into GG.

A lot of people are DBZ fans, and Arc System is an AAA fighting game developer who is finally handling the franchise after a long stretch of casual to mediocre DBZ games.

I think the general lack of excitement from this E3 is the lack of fresh new IPs. I'm looking forward to a lot the sequels shown, but I was looking forward to a lot of them before the show.
Also, Days Gone straight up didn't look very good to me.

Who actually runs away from monsters though? I mean, outside of the egg delivery quests.

Sony's conference was eh to me. The big surprises like MHW and SotC Remaster/Remake were leaked out through trademarks along with other announcements so they weren't as shocking to me. Didn't blow me out of the water, but wasn't completely bad. Good thing it was fast paced with trailers and stuff.
Just Nintendo left tomorrow.
Just Nintendo left tomorrow.
Well it seems far more dynamic than past Monster Hunter games which interests me a lot. While I enjoyed the MH games I felt they were often a little too stuck in the past and this seems like a nice change of pace while still retaining a lot of the original spirit.
I think Sony made a mistake announcing EVERYTHING in the past 2-3 E3's. Now all they have is upcoming stuff and things that won't be out until 2019. To add insult to injury the games that DID show gameplay looked baaaaad on stage. Spiderman was a lackluster showing and Days Gone was a snoozefest up until zombear. It is pretty bad when your biggest announcement is a remaster of a decade old game.
Basically. It literally has nothing going for it outside zombear. Ooodles of zombies? Dead Rising did it...4 times. Running zombies (plus an interesting plot)? The Last of Us. Last Light and other games could fit the mold too. I feel bad for the developer because it is obviously too far along to cancel but I legit forgot it even existed until today. The Last of Us 2 wiped it from my conciousness.
What? Nintendo 2010 was awesome are you sure you're not thinking of another one?
Super DBZ was like a budget version of this new game and was okay.
I don't know why a DBZ fighting game and a Mario/Rabbids crossover are the two games I'm most interested lol.
Nintendo spotlight should be solid just for New Donk City hype, but I hope we get a new Pikmin revealed or something.
Yeah that game has to be in some sort of trouble. I think there was supposed to be beta late last year.
Edit: Didn't even realize Ni No Kuni 2 got a release date. I'm looking forward to that.

Ni No Kuni was in the pre-show along with Undertale PS4 and Vita reveals. The pre-show might have caused the hype for Sony's and one reason why it failed since there was stuff like those games mentioned above, Supermassive's first game, and Crash stuff. Doesn't help Sony's past conferences have been great. Microsoft having some stuff that could have been in Sony's doesn't help like Dragon Ball FighterZ, Metro and Anthem.
I agree that Mario + Rabbids looks surprisingly good. I was more accepting of it than others, but they did a good reveal of it at Ubi's Conference.

It is all good, no worries
E3 week has been quite the distraction.

So back to me sucking off Hunter Hunter but I really like how the Phantom Troupe don't really look like anatagonist from a design standpoint(well at least some of them do) they more or less come off like a quirky group of people a la Fairy Tail
E3 tends to have that effect.
No idea why you would think that *clicks on an another hour long demo*

I agree though. When I initially jumped in the middle of the Phantom Troupe Arc, I didn't even realize they were antagonists, initially.
Also, I think that's an updated (or old) picture of the Troupe. It looks pretty different than the current makeup.

Better resolution:
Also that grey-haired man in the bg is an anime-movie-only character.
Peeps have said that Togashi had involvement with the film, but I think it was only as far as the couple special chapters he whipped up
Don't watch the HxH movies.
You can watch the first couple minutes of the Phantom Troupe one since that portion is kinda canon, but outside of that it's not worth it.

First minutes were alright, but overall not so good imo. I slightly preferred the musicals from 2000-2004 more than it. (They were all written in a similar fanservicey way)
Comparing it to the rest (I never thought I'd say it but) Devolver and Ubisoft arguably had the best conferences.

I think the only straight up villain looking dudes are Chrollo, Feitan and Uvo. The rest are just normal looking people for the most part. Chrollo is so over designed that you just look at his line art and go, "yup...that guys evil" he is also Jojo as fuck. Where the fuck is Shizuku? Fuck that movie. At least they kind of fixed Pakunosa.So back to me sucking off Hunter Hunter but I really like how the Phantom Troupe don't really look like anatagonist from a design standpoint(well at least some of them do) they more or less come off like a quirky group of people a la Fairy Tail
I liked the intro with Killua and found that puppet girl cute, the rest is shit.

Uvogin is the life of the party. I do find it odd how pretty much him, Franklin, Shizuku and Pakunoda are the one easier to reason with...Nobunaga as well. Gon and Killua wouldn't have been able to make nice with Feitan for example. Feitan and Finks are so loyal to the Spiders they were like "Fuck Chrollo" when he got captured.
