I watch it for the stage demos, and Sony really doesn't give those away early. I really don't care if announcements are made there. If they are then that's great, but i'm not going to be upset if they aren't. I actually preferred the way that Konami did their conference last year. They dumped a pre-recorded conference instead of doing it live. That way I was able to skip over everything that I didn't care about (which would be the majority of it) and I was able to go straight to the KojiPro section. If Sony did the same thing then i'd be able to skip over all of the Vita and Move nonsense and get straight to the PS3 stuff. Instead i'l have to sit through all of that just to get to the stuff that I really want to see.

Nintendo has always had a strong showing of E3 exclusive, and titles that got the market to buy their games. Wii Fit, Wii Music, etc. Just because they look absolutely ridiculous on stage flailing their arms playing Wii Music or the like, they still get attention from the market.

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!

True. You only have to look at Rockstar's success for proof of this.

Sony does tend to blow their wad before E3.
But even so, there E3s tend to always be pretty good and there's generally a few surprises thrown our way during the press conference.
Last E3 the big surprise of the show was the price announcement of the Vita being $250 when most were expecting a lot more.
But generally their E3s are a good watch because they'll reveal a game prior to E3 and then have a stage demo of gameplay and release an awesome trailer for it during the show.
This is what happened with UC3 and UC2 (great stage demos, plus a fantastic new trailer).
So even if I know about the games already, you get to see substantially more during the conference.
The months leading up to E3 are mostly announcements so that the gamer public is aware the game exists, then they blow them away even more at E3. And I'm fine with that.
Another God of War game coming out isn't much of a surprise anyway, to be perfectly honest. Surprises need to be left for games that are genuinely a surprise - new IP, and so forth. And Sony has generally reserved these reveals for E3 proper.

Just put "Sony Computer Entertainment" or "Sony" in the owner's field. Or any other company you'd like to spy on! Quite useful, unlike the American trademark database.

Nintendo sells most of its games to people who wouldn't be following e3 in the first place. It doesn't really matter for them.
Sony and MS target the enthusiast crowd so it's better for them to unveil their stuff at a big trade show when their audience is paying attention. Sony just announced a new GOW which should be a big deal for them, but I bet hardly a fraction of the ps3 crowd was aware of it.

They still show these games at the E3 press conference in a big way, so it's not like they're somehow not given any presence at the show just because they were revealed a month before.

This is terrible news, am I the only one pissed about this?

The same people that would've taken notice of an E3 announcement are aware of the GoW:A announcement. GoW:A's announcement was basically in the spotlight on every major gaming website. Do you think that would've happened at E3 with everything that tends to be announced there?

Yes. What exactly what overshadow a new GOW, Killzone, or Uncharted? There's not much that could do it. Those games actually would be doing the overshadowing.

Who knows what else Sony has? And they would be battling it out with whatever MS shows at their conference since they take place on the same day. With GoW:A's announcement there was no competition. It received the gaming worlds full attention.

Can't believe Sony opens a new studio and then has them make what we all know is going to be B game Super Dupper All star whatever. Waste of resources.

Why so dismissive?
Isn't Superbot formed by former Sony Santa Monica / Naughty Dog and other employees?
The game will probably be awesome.

Here you go
LOLOL, good stuff.
Indeed, and it was headed up by the woman who was producer on god of war. She's back at SSM now though, but seemingly not before she got the studio the contract to develop this game.
I really think this is GoW since that was just announced and why would Sony announce two exclusives with in days? E3 is close and they would want to show something then too.
Now, now; some games cannot be rushed such as Team Ico games, and ThatGameCompany games. You can't rush art.
And what about THE LAST GUARDIAN , it isn´t suppose Sony will realease it this year...

That website is really cool... I like the scrolling background thing.
Hah. Too bad Geoff isn't here reeling us along himself. That was hilarious in the thread prior to The Last of Us being revealed. Hopefully he'll show up once it's closer to showtime.
Please point out where someone said that there should be no announcements at E3. I sincerely doubt anyone actually said that. People are just saying that it's stupid to hold back every single announcement until E3 just for the sake of something meaningless like "winning" the show. There should still be announcements and stage demos at E3 of course, but it's stupid to hold back every single little thing until the conference.

A new ratchet and clank game
I always feel like a kid at a candy store around E3 time. So many great announcements If this one happens to be a Smash Bros type game Im gonna scream like a girl. Sony better have some great coders on board to make sure the fighting mechanics are top notch, and please not 2D.

Yeah I hope the gameplay is not in a 2D plane similar to Smash Bros. I would prefer it to be more similar to PowerStone.
I think I'm ready for another one. I'm pulling for it to be this now.
