Serious question to people with some business knowledge: should I buy Sony stock ahead of the E3 conf? There's also a shareholder meeting June 20th. I'm probably looking for the 3-5 yera investment time period.

Also, LOL asking random strangers on the internet for investment advice.

If it's 'LOL' it's stupid, don't be stupid with your money.

And best music is Shadow of the Colossus by a country mile for me.

I invested in Sony a little while ago near the time when they bottomed out, and I've made quite a bit on their stock since. The past week or two has been very volatile as an activist investor called for the spinoff of their entertainment business. It jumped to about $23, and over the past few days has fallen back to about $19.50. Long term targets tend to put Sony in the mid 20s for the next 12-18 months, so at this point I would wait until you see it drop below $19 or $18, and then jump on it. The E3 conference will be unlikely to move the stock much at all in any meaningful way, so don't use that do determine your purchase time.

Good point, I guess it's easy to overestimate the business importance of E3 since it's so important to me personally.

I remember last year Sony announced a couple of games prior to E3. This year seems like they want to announce them all at E3.
 
Had a weird dream that I was watching the conference.

Jonathan Blow was talking about The Witness, only it wasn't a puzzle game, but a Minecraft-style survival game with realistic graphics. He was showing his house in the game, which was in the middle of a deep hole with a mechanical ladder down.

It actually seemed like a cool game!

Am I going insane?

Maybe Minecraft is headed to PS3/PS4? Sony has been very friendly to Notch lately.

Chrono Cross was well received, it's a good game, but it fell short of greatness, really the issue was always that it's not a worthy successor to Trigger, more than any real issue with the game itself.
 
Wasn't Sony forcing Insomniac and Naughty Dog to make Shooter?
I blame Sony :(.

Don't know about that, but they made Disruptor on PSX back in the days and it was a very good console FPS. Resistance 1 was great too IMHO, so I can't really blame them ;)
I hope that on PS4 we'll see less shooters from Sonys 1st/2nd party developers though, leave that to EA, Activision and co.

I couldn't agree more, I had so many issues with cross, but that soundtrack was beyond incredible.

Yes.

And as an aside I had a dream they opened the show with Uncharted 4, the camera panned through the desert to find Drake lying in the sand, and as he got up, there was a closeup on his face. Everyone around me said "god those skin shaders look bad", and they were right. It looked awful.

And then Nathan wiped his face, and said to the audience "It's just makeup". And it looked glorious underneath.

Then I woke up.

Man I told myself I wouldn't get all tripped up in E3 this year, but man o man these last few days have been rough on my attention span. I've been discarding every bit of news that doesn't contain the words "Sony" or "Ps4". A bad time to announce cures for disease in my head :O

Gravity Rush. I even feel bad for such a good music to be on a handheld game. People should enjoy this kind of art on their bigass audio setups

I once had a dream that I was holding Last Guardian in my hands. My hands trembled as they tore the plastic cover. I then tried to open the case but it wouldn't open. I tried using scissors, my kitchen knife, a screwdriver, to open the case but for some reason I could not open it. It was teasing me, taking the piss out of me, laughing at me. After 5 years of anticipating this game, I had had enough. I took the hammer out to smash the case open. The deed was done. The case lay there, shattered in pieces along with the disc.

The I woke up.

Xenogears.

Still unmatched after all these years. Sometimes I actually start a new game only to reach Doc house and listen all those memorable songs.

Valkyrie Profile. Getting me super pumped up and then completely depressed in the same OST.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

Just had a thought and hope someone can answer

Probably Shadow of the Colossus then. Very hard to choose though, I enjoy the OST of many games.

I also have some hope for Beyond's soundtrack, since Heavy Rain's was so great. Really unfortunate that Corbeil died.
I'm not the biggest fan of Balfe's output when he works alone, but since he is pretty excited for it I hope he puts together something great.

This is a hard one. So many great soundtracks. Xenogears, Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts series, etc.
Guess I'll go with my most recent favourite:

Chrono Cross. No contest. Yasunori Mitsuda was at his best with this and Xenogears' soundtrack.
