That's why it's a PSX conference instead of E3.

I like how they have much improved the pacing in the last couple of conferences. Most of their previous shows could put a glass eye to sleep.
Some decent content too and their console might finally be purchasable for me in a year or so.
7.5 / 10

The best conference from anyone (Nintendo Direct's included) since Sony's E3 2015 conference. It had everything: major first party announcements, major third party announcements, indies, VR, a sprinkling of nostalgia and just a shitload of games.

The conference itself was good but most of AAA announcements were personally underwhelming as fuck. This is probably the first time since PS3 launch when I don't look forward for anything from SIE 1st party studios (well, GOW maybe, depending on how it will end up in future trailers).
So exactly what they aimed for. PSX = Celebrating PlayStation and it's fans.
Very good

I have no sympathy for modern Naughty Dog games, but you gotta give credit where it's due. 9/10
You can't really go better when it comes to pacing, amount and variety of content - mid-tier projects are back! All the trailers for games I was already looking forward to beforehand were also pretty good to great.
It might be one of the best non-launch conferences I've ever seen. Only the VR- and indie reels were as uninteresting as usual, plus the crowd was a little embarrassing at points.

at one point I couldn't react fast enough so much awesome stuff was shown
The only thing I was missing was a new game by FROM Software

Did you guys really get annoyed when the audience got excited? I think it's pretty normal, they're fans after all.

Sure many games which I expected to be shown again weren't and us fans were told as such (Insomniac's Spider-Man and SSM's GoW4) but the games shown were amazing. TloU Part Deux, Uncharted TlL alone made this a 8/10. Anything after that was icing on the cake. Like MvC4 Infinite.
No PSN ID changes reaffirms to me that this will never happen. Sony doesn't have the engineering acumen to pull this off apparently. Other little niche things like game install support on external drives would have been cool but that's not something folks get riled up for.

There's two Knacks! Cerny is a genius
8/10
It was all about the games, Sony has done a great job in spreading out their reveals and footage over this year. Overall, they have a fantastic and diverse line up and the exciting thing is that they didn't even show stuff like Spidey, GoW, Days Gone, Detroid: Become Human, and Dreams here.

Very nice! I'm all in for Nier Automata, Nioh, Persona 5 and Ni No Kuni 2. They're all so close which helps even more. Love every single one of these games.
Wipeout is fucking awesome. I don't really care at all about Knack, Crash and the PaRappa but some people do so yeah I'm happy they exist. Oh, Ace Combat 7 and the Uncharted thing also are great although I'm for whatever reason less hyped about them. Hope they surprise me!
The Second of Us look AWESOME, it's a bit far most likely but I can wait, loved the first one.
So yeah, overall it was great and I feel we should have more gaming related events like this close to christmas, it just sets the right mood.

would you have expected Marvel without the leak? I'd call that a huge surprise and should be counted
Getting two Yakuza announcements wasnt on anyone's radar either

Rockefellers. Skull and Bones. Microsoft. Al Qaeda. A Cabal of Bankers. The melting point of steel. What do these things have in common? Wake up sheeple, the landfill wasn't even REAL!
Vita being still alive is the real news

Why not FF7Remake? It appeared in 2015 (with gameplay footage at PSX 2015), and now in 2016 it disappeared again.... Not even a short trailer.... Dat f*ck?
Why not Biohazard 2 Remake?
Where is my Dino Crisis 4?

It was great.
The only negative I have is that I was lead to believe Shenmue III was going to make an appearance. ;_;

Good variety of games were shown. Showing UC4 expansion at the beginning and TLoU Pt 2 at the end was nice. More Yakuza games coming to the West makes me happy. Hopefully more people can get into the series with the remake of the first game. Shawn seemed really out of it with this conference though especially compared to when he hosted E3 he was really fumbling towards the end. Other than that I thought it was a pretty solid conference.

The only thing I can really give points off for is the CoD tourney portion 9.8 outta 10. Everything else during PSX was spot on and they showed off quite a few games I'd love to play.
Huge props to:
-Ys Origin
-Ace Combat 7
-Ni No Kuni 2
- Nier Automata
-MvC: I

It was game after game after game.
Sony is doing everthing right this gen, and my god does next year puts PS4 exclusives library on the map for good. They also have given Indie developers massive exposure and more so than anybody in this industry this gen.
It was a solid 10/10 for me. Up there with one of their best conferences.
