I've been playing games for 30 years, I can call games I will like pretty accurately. This is not rocket science.
For instance I don't even have to see it yet, tomorrow Zelda will be the most impressive thing at E3.

Just watched it spoiler free.
I thought it was pretty good, not their best but a solid showing of games.
God of War reboot looks surprisingly great.
Days Gone looks pretty good, though a bit clichéd (I groaned slightly when I saw the red barrel).
Spider Man game looks promising.
Last Guardian coming in four months.
Horizon still looks fantastic.
Some promising VR exclusives (though still not sure if I'll buy a PSVR).
The main downer for me was no indie segment.
Also not sure what to make of the Crash announcement being "remastered" PS1 games, but we'll see.
Anyway I thought it was much better than the MS show just on the strength of the new games that were shown.

Nope not at all.
I definitely forsee the PlayStation 4 Neo and more Final Fantasy 7 gameplay to be shown at PSX

Wow 10/10 - second only to E3 2015 IMO.
I can see the criticisms (especially looking at that release date slide they showed), but MAN, I loved everything at that show. Makes me happy about a purchase of a Neo given that we'll be getting awesome games well into 2018.
Favourite game shown was God of War. Dad of War Kratos is the best Kratos.

To be fair they didn't talk all that much and keep the trailers rolling. Good length imo but I sure would take more if they had it and presented like that.

That was an awesome E3, can't wait for a lot of those games! Actually got more hyped for Detroit Become Human, and still can't wait for Horizon as well! Glad to see a release date for The Last Guardian as well

Man you wanna talk about haters? I'm not a "fanboy" of either but the Xbox conference thread was awful to be in. Thought a game looked cool? Try wade through 50 posts of people saying "forza looked cool, until they showed the cars lol"
It was almost impossible to get hyped. Dat gaf I suppose.
release date was new

Thats what I'm saying. That price is fucking ridiculous.
Should have been $299, max. How the fuck am I supposed to convince my wife to allow me to spend ~$1000 for PSVR, a PSNeo and games, that I would never allow anyone else in the house to touch? I'm incensed.
A fucking shame, I say. No early adoption for me.

They said they'd release the console or talk about it more when they have stuff ready for it. And I think that's fine. They have a shit load of time to come out with it.

Wait, where the hell is Rise of the Tomb Raider?
I thought some sort of an official announcement, on Sony's part, would be due by now.
Is this still a thing?

MS's 4k player will be out in august is all im saying.
not really looking to buy a xbox one s, but it's looking tempting with the PS4k further out. the only other option is the 400 dollar samsung product.
I thought it was a good presentation. Perhaps not as exciting as last year, but I would definitely not call it disappointing.
-God of War looked great and I loved the setting, even though I'm kind of indifferent towards the series.
-Not really excited about Days Gone
-The Last Guardian is releasing sooner than I expected, that's cool
-Horizon still looks gorgeous.
-Resident Evil 7 looked... great? I certainly didn't expect that, I was actually ready for something that seemed like 6 again
-The VR games were okay I guess.
-I'm actually okay with the idea of a Crash Remastered trilogy, but I'm a bit afraid of that Crash is more or less fueled by nostalgia and it won't deliver. Still optimistic that we'll get something good though, I liked the games.
-Death Stranding looked... intriguing. A nice surprise.
-The Spiderman game was probably the highlight for me, the surprise factor would have made the reveal even better, but we already knew it was coming. Still, nice.

I think the structure of the show left this feeling way worse than it actually was, God of War looked surprisingly great, Horizon still looks amazing, it just definitely felt like there was a Neo shaped hole at the end where they decided to drop a gameplay demo that probably would have just happened behind closed doors otherwise.
I can understand why they didn't want to put Neo out there with MS having hung this 'most powerful console ever' jab out there for Sony to either avoid or walk straight into but it might have been better to take the shot and just say "We don't need to wait a year, here's your most powerful console this fall".

Cute? Thats it?
I want to know and play the games you people have been playing.
I sometimes think I'm an outlier, gaming for 20+ years and I still haven't become jaded.
god of war got kind of boring for me after 2 and i'm lukewarm about horizon because guerilla games.
if spider-man can recapture the feeling of the PS2 games then it will be amazing tbf
besides that it was like, idk, mostly stuff we already know? except resi 7 which i can't evaluate.

Remember, One is still pushed as an all-around multimedia player (especially if it still has the dual HDMI ports and the now new IR blaster), so it coming out with a slim version of it's big as hell console and just upgrading it to 4K for the Blu-Ray, is fine. I think it's better for Sony to wait to show off the new console and not have a separate new SKU like with the Slim + Scorpio being announced at the same time.

Did you check the gameplay for Horizon? It was dope.
And GoW4 looks completely different than the previous games, tonally and gameplay-wise.
I don't know. Like I said, maybe I'm just different.
I'll agree with this, but I've only checked out ReCore, SoT, Gears 4, DR4 and multiplats from MS' conference, so I may be missing some hidden potential. Hardware < Software, at least during E3, for me.

I loved loved loved the orchestra, but did they really have to do the Verdi Requiem Dies Irae? It's such an overrated, pretentious piece of music
No.

Maybe it's a typo : D
I thought this conference was even better than last year's, in terms of what I'm actually interested in. Horizon (game of the show probably), God of War, Spidey, Days Gone, Last Guardian, RE7... all highlights. With no downtime and drawn-out segments, Sony is getting really good at doing these and giving us what we want...
aside from a David Cage game of course

So, please correct me if i'm mistaken.
1. No FF7R
2. No Shenmue 3
3. Kojima showed game that has no engine picked yet and will be released somewhere between 2020-2025.
3. RE7 is now first person horror
4. God of War is now Last of Us with Kratos.

Just watched the conference spoiler-free and unfortunately not that many games were interesting to me.
Resident Evil VII would be, but I hate first person games so that's out.
Basically, it's Spiderman (which looks fantastic!) and The Last Guardian (which looks ok, but I've waited too long to skip it).
Horizon also looks pretty good.
The rest is not my cup of tea.

Its not a typo, just trying not to come off as a fanboy... I thought it was immensly better than MS conference which was pretty bad at several points...
Its not that I am not happy Sony had such a powerful show, just that it seems they are on a different league now. :/ (see i did it again
)

I said PSX 2015 was the worst conference I'd ever seen.
This was the best conference I've ever seen. Every single exclusive looked great and it was so well paced, the conference was basically in autopilot with very little talking.
Can't wait for Spider-Man, Horizon, God of War, Detroit, TLG and Days Gone. Looks like Sony's first party has finally arrived.
No Indies and Boyes was a relief too.
The only low points were:
RE7 being first person, that's literally bull numbingly stupid for a series claiming to return to its roots.
COD - I thought it played and looked so shit because it was a low budget VR game.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
I'm home, missed the conference, catching up. Seemed good for fans of the games shown. Well paced (ABOUT FUCKING TIME SONY), tons of stuff, good footage of existing games, long footage of new games.
Just a shame most of what was shown is unappealing to me personally. I assume PlayStation aficionados are very happy though, and that's the main thing.

Why no Bloodborne 2, DemonNite? Does Sony not know that Bloodborne is the best game they produced this generation, and a sequel is a must?
