Honest question - Why do people dislike Days Gone? I think it looks great! Like open world Uncharted

because its cool to say you are tired of zombies

but seriously, game looked cool, the TLoU comparison is lazy imo, but I can see how people would look it over, it didn't give me a "wow" moment just "ok that's cool".

i will buy it tho

 

[Inuhanyou]

GOW footage was on base PS4.

suspected as much is very impressive

 

[Vinc]

Im blown away that people didnt like this. Amazing show with SOTC remake dream announcement.

 

[YaBish]

Unless Nintendo is amazing tomorrow we are in a world where Ubisoft had the best press conference.

Truly the darkest timeline.

 

[lovely ladies]

The whole conference changed once MvCI was shown lol. I love Marvel vs Capcom but the cutscene they chose was dreadful. It would have been way better if they introduced a few new characters and showed some gameplay/tag combos.

 

[Andronicus]

So Destiny 2 is a console launch exclusive for ps4 right? it comes out 2 days earlier. lol

Edit. all consoles pushed up

 

[Diablos]

As strange as it may sound some of us are interested in the VR stuff and want more games announced and shown. I don't know why you would care anyway, it not like the VR stuff stole anything away from a lackluster showing.

Suit yourself. I didn't say they'd have a stellar conference by combining but I just think it would have made for a better presentation as it's not diverse enough to split up between pre show and conference this year.

Really most of E3 sucked this year.

 

[heathen]

I thought they would have one more big year before a pre-PS5 lull, oh well.

[Aesthet1c]

Feel like that conference was pretty rough.

They announced almost nothing new, most of the games they showed we already knew about and are 2018 at the earliest. Spider-Man was incredible, God of War looked pretty good, and SotC was probably the biggest gasp moment. Overall pretty disappointed with their show. It wasn't nearly on the same caliber as their conferences they've been having the past few years.

 

[Dusktildawn48]

I feel all they had to do different would have been to announce FROM SOFTWARES new game and you'd all be gushing. A+ conference! 10/10! Dsuuj/12!! OMG best ever!

 

[TheStruggler]

GAF, we still have TGS and PSX for more unannounced games!

I'm fully expecting a trailer for whatever Sucker Punch is working on. It's either going to open the show or close the show for PSX.

As for tonight's conference itself? It was a good show but compared to their last few conferences it's underwhelming and that is understandable because they can't keep dropping bijou bombs every E3.

Really want more of Days Gone and I believe they're going more in-depth later this week right? Also can't wait for more God of War!

Forgot my rating..... I'll give it a *thinking to himself* Where's Sucker Punch/10 ��

I get it however E3 is the superbowl of gaming conferences, big announcements should be present here. I didnt feel any

 

[LifEndz]

knack 2, yakuza kiwami, ni no kuni as a console exclusive, and uncharted & horizon story dlc

Days Gone is 2018?

 

[KORNdoggy]

I thought it honestly made MS's look barron in comparison. Especially considering what MS are trying to sell off the back of their conference (a new 500 dollar machine) i mean going into MS keynote i was expecting more games akin to what sony was showcasing in terms of big budget impactful epic trailers and gameplay demos that pushed graphics and animations to new heights... And i found it kinda weird that the guys making this super powered console are largely only showcasing third party indie games that could run on an old phone. It just seemed so backwards to me and i dont really understand what MS was thinking with that one.

sony was just relentless though. I think i read last E3 they had a 70/30 split for games and talking. This year must have been like what? 95/5? Thats all i want really. An onslaught of new content. I dont care about a new porche tbh *shrugs*

Also, the cool projections/snow/hanging bodies stuff was really impressive. Not orchestra levels of impressive, but cool non the less. I wanna see more of that!

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Hahaha, yeah, Sony's biggest enemy was Sony.

What's coming the rest of the year, exclusive-wise?

*console exclusive

They offically announced and gave a trailer for Knack 2?

 

[Chuck Norris]

Honest question - Why do people dislike Days Gone? I think it looks great! Like open world Uncharted

Other than that I though the conference was just OK. Although this is the first Spiderman game ever I actually care about. If it's open world and looks/plays like that it will be amazing!

I thought last year's demo was a lot more unique than this years. Options are cool and all but this years demo felt ripped right out of TLOU's playbook

I think the demo would have been stronger showing more of the open world

Could still be great but the demo was weak

 

[Elandyll]

Days Gone is 2018?

Days Gone was not dated at all...
Same for Gts weirdly enough...

 

[Hippopuncher12]

They offically announced and gave a trailer for Knack 2?

Yes on the preshow. In fact the preshow was probably better than the regular one.

 

[Shadax the wizard]

Days Gone is 2018?

Devs didn't want to talk about date/year when asked by Geoff.

 

[Abstrusity]

Eh. That's pretty much all I can say about it.

I don't like Monster hunter that much but maybe Monster Hunter on PS4 will kill the Switch in Japan :^)

Some indie platformer stuff, Ace Combat 7, Maybe Knack 2, nothing else really up my alley.

If AC7 requires a PS4 Pro I'll be maaaaad.

[Dark_castle]

Hahaha, yeah, Sony's biggest enemy was Sony.

Sony's biggest enemy is VR. Man fuck VR. VR sucks, and always without fail drags a conference down no matter.

 

[UberTag]

Man, that was a pretty boring one for me. I was pretty excited, but that didn't really have much for me.

BTW, am I the only one who is looking at that zombie game and thinking that games with such realistic graphics need to stop having such dopey looking AI?

You're not the only one. We're branching into uncanny valley territory with AI these days.

Developers don't seem to want to make advances in this area which is why we're left with either tightly scripted experiences or massively multi-player games where they don't have to bother with it.

 

[LifEndz]

There was no date listed at all.

Wow. I could've sworn that was holiday. Next year is going to be jam packed.

 

[renzolama]

COD looks really out of place against all of the fantasy/scifi games in development for 2017/2018. I guess we'll see how big the "boots on the ground realism" audience really is, personally I think that franchise is headed for another big sales drop this year.

 

[Chuck Norris]

I get it however E3 is the superbowl of gaming conferences, big announcements should be present here. I didnt feel any

I mean that's kind of up to Sony. PSX was a huge success for them last year and I expect they will continue to use it as a launching pad for announcements where they've got all the focus

 

[CharminUltra]

I joke about the Vita, but seriously, presentation was fine. It was about on par with Ubi and MS, PLUS most of the games they showed are coming this year or next instead of god knows fucking when, and that excites the hell out of me. Hallelujah!

 

[Torkith]

Days Gone was not dated at all...
Same for Gts weirdly enough...

Could've sworn I saw 2017 for GTS in the pre-show

 

[Shadax the wizard]

David Cage on stage now with Geoff.

 

[Slackerish]

So Destiny 2 is a console launch exclusive for ps4 right? it comes out 2 days earlier. lol

No, PS4 and XB1 date bumped up to the 6th. PC is Oct 24.

 

[Elandyll]

It's just so weird they gave a huge spot to a title coming to XB1 (MHW), and nothing for Ni No Kuni 2 which is a defacto console exclusive (at least for now)...

Just weird.

No way this CoD doesn't outsell infinite warfare.

 

[Hendrick's]

I feel all they had to do different would have been to announce FROM SOFTWARES new game and you'd all be gushing. A+ conference! 10/10! Dsuuj/12!! OMG best ever!

So true.

 

[EtherMagic]

May have just been to keep the trailer internationally usable.

Been hoping the same thing man, i hope so. We know STEAM has 2 different server streams available already, one strickly for Germany, and one for the rest of the world. It does point to a censored and non-censored version. Fingers crossed! I just want the most Authentic WW2 shooter us gamers have ever had, thats all.

 

[StoOgE]

Sony had better content but weaker presentation.
Microsoft had better presentation but weaker content.
Both came off feeling flat for different reasons.

Bethesda's structure was the tightest out of everyone.
Ubisoft had the overall best show with a nice mix of surprise announcements and tight pacing.
EA remained tone deaf like always but people will keep opening their wallets for them so whatever.

I think Sony and MS have a similar problem which is all of the best looking stuff seems to be multi plat.

So while it's great to show some amazing looking games, everyone sort of shrugs and realizes they can get it anywhere.

I think Sony had a good enough show but is clearly paying the piper for throwing haymakers the last two years. Both in expectation setting and not having enough new stuff to show.

 

[libregkd]

I thought it was a pretty weak showing overall but not necessarily bad. Expectations kinda got out of control given their last 2/3 E3s. So disappointing but still solid and probably still probably the best conference this E3 so far. Days Gone, God of War, Spiderman, and Shadow of the Colossus being the highlights.

This E3 in general has kinda sucked. Sony didn't announce anything new (outside of the SotC remake) and the same goes for MS (outside Forza 7...which is really a known quantity at this point) and with Nintendo saying all their stuff is 2017 I can't imagine there will be much revealed tomorrow either.

*console exclusive

Thanks for this. Sony screwed up big time by not pushing many of these games to the fore at the presser. But I'm glad you posted this to show folks that Sony isn't lacking in exclusives. None of them are as strong as proper Sony 1st party IP (like a GT proper and the HZD and Uncharted stuff are dlc/expansions) but that is quite a list of exclusives.

I agree its up to sony which is why this conference fell flat in my opinion

Weird. I though that demo was great. In each direction he looked I kept thinking "I can go there"... I might be wrong, but I wasn't bored even for a second during that demo. And the atmosphere is just amazing...

 

[Suzushiiro]

Honest question - Why do people dislike Days Gone? I think it looks great! Like open world Uncharted

Because it looks like a game in an overdone genre and an overdone setting (one that's extremely similar to another major Sony first-party IP) and nothing we've seen so far makes it look particularly unique.

I get the feeling that a lot of people may warm up to it more as it approaches release, assuming it's actually good.

 

[Mushroomer25]

So Destiny 2 is a console launch exclusive for ps4 right? it comes out 2 days earlier. lol

By this logic, every EA release is an XBox console launch exclusive, due to EA Access.

 

[Blue Ranger]

Can't believe i am going to sleep right now
Truly sad, i expected way too much i guess..

 

[Shadax the wizard]

Script and motion capture is done for Detroit. Motion took about 1y. Same for script.

3 characters.

 

[kuhnbeast91]

Very conservative approach. It looks like Sony looked at their release schedule and said if it wasn't coming out in 2017 or 2018, the game wouldn't be shown. Very Nintendo like, luckily Sony has 3rd party.
