Can anyone tell me why people thought EA conference was bad? I missed it but they showed Mirrors Edge 2, SW Battlefront, and Mass Effect right? How bad could it be to compare them to Nintendo?
Mass Effect and ME2 were short, ~2 min cinematic trailers. Battlefront was 5 mins of gameplay.
EA had a 90 minute conference.
People have a problem with no real Mirror's Edge 2 gameplay and what took up the other 80 minutes (sports sports sports, mobile mobile mobile).
Nope
Edit: Here's Adam Boyes confirming that the game's a no show this E3

Yes, all of today's news - including Nintendo Direct, PC show and SquareEnix stuff - will be added sometime tomorrow. I just got so busy with the audit today and when I came home I had a little personal emergency I had to take care of.
Unfortunately this is the IGN one with 60fps->30fps down conversion problems (duplicate/overlayed frames)
So basically the 60fps feed is lost from the face of the earth forever? This is ridiculous.

So due to a friend who works event planning, I got guest listed for E3 today. I'm leaving in a few hours.
I'm not sure if today is a public or press day still, in which case I could just end up waiting in line all day.
Either way, I've never gone. Anyone have any tips/suggestions for a first time E3 goer?
Thanks!

Oh that's a nice list 'cause it shows I missed some things. Thanks
You're doing good work. Nice to see everything in one place.
Honestly it doesn't usually feel like work, for some reason I love collecting data points and putting them behind bulletpoints. It's soothing to me for some bizarre reason, ever since I was a kid.
So making these threads is something of a treat. Plus, I get tons of help from GAFers, which makes it easier.
Here it is, starts at 9 hours 2 minutes, Sony pre-show is from Ubi - Sony. My Spoiler Free E3 2015 Google Doc has archived all conferences with multiple streams if you want more GT/GB/ other conference links.Timestamps are included. Enjoy. Here is the corresponding Spoiler Free E3 2015 Thread as well.
Cheers, much appreciated!
On the show floor? Not sure. But Geoff Keighley was interviewing someone from Capy about Below on Day 0 I believe.

Maybe Battletoads for Gamescom? They moved a lot of big games to Gamescom, and Sony doesn't even have a conference this year there. So they have an opportunity to get the media all to themselves.
Tenchu's time will come. After this conference I have faith that anything's possible.

Is Sony going to do their own show after Gamescon?

Below was on the floor... didn't get a chance to play it though.
After coming back from the show here's my top picks (I checked out mostly playstation 4 stuff so forgive me if this isn't comprehensive.)
1. Uncharted 4: What Naughty Dog is doing... jeeeez... After watching the extended trailer there in it's private viewing area. I walked out of that room every other game paled in comparison... like guppies in a shark tank. I saw the best looking game at e3 and it was definitely uncharted. They really raised the bar as it's cinematic and gameplay blends so smoothly.
2. Star Wars Battlefront: This game is the real deal... from it's graphics down to the gameplay it all felt good and looked unbelievable. I still dont think it's going to ship looking that good.. i'm looking forward to being let down for some... weird... reason.
3. Street Fighter V: This was my game of show... probably because it was the most accessible on the floor. Graphically it's top notch but the game is more fun and feels more aggressive than SF4. Nash felt good to play with, Ryu as well... Birdie is stupid OP... felt like fighting a boss character with his damage output. I didnt get a chance to try the others but seeing oother folks play with them... it all moved really well.
Middle of the road picks
1. Ratchet & Clank: The game looked great and ran smooth... but the camera got in the way when trying to jump from platform to platform leading to a couple of unnecessary deaths.
2. Star Fox Zero: The game looks better in person than it does in the online videos... but honestly it gives off a "been there, done that feel" as far as gameplay. Gave up the controller a couple of minutes in because i felt like i've done this already in 1997. Still think it's going to be a great release for fans... it just didn't move me like i thought it would.
3. Cuphead: This game is my 1B for best looking game of the show next to Uncharted... the game definitely has an arcade vibe to it with cupheads super being a super beam similar to Ryu from Marvel vs. Capcom... it was all cool looking but then i realized that the game is a series of boss fights and i'm not sure what replay value is there. Might get shallow quick for some.
Disappointments
- Nothing really... everything looked good but there's not enough of the game to be played to truly feel like it's going to come out and be a dud...on Second thought...
Capcom / Konami's Booth - It was like they really didint need to be there... Street Fighter V was prominent in Sony's booth and outside of Resident Evil Zero there was nothing there. The only redeeming quality of Capcom's booth was Ono showing up and the excellent hiring of the Cammy impersonator... she was spot on. As for Konami... well... it was a Metal Gear Solid booth... the japanese big publishers weren't as prominent and that was disappointing. I hope next year is more promising.
Sleeper of the show
Until Dawn - This is a gorgeous game that no one seems to be talking about. It plays like being in a B horror movie but visually it's up there with some of playstations best. There may be something i'm missing here but what i played made me want more.
