I was in that thread hyping but I constantly reminded people the fun of hyping is dreaming impossibilities and in the hype itself. I didn't think people actually were serious about those games. I saw them as fun pipedreams.

If it wasn't for Uncharted 4 gameplay, Yakuza reveal and Suikoden 2, it would've been bad. But with those three things I consider it a "meh".
They should've ended with Uncharted 4.
TGA was better, by a mile.

Fortunately, I wasn't expecting much.
Decent conference all the way, until the last awful part.
There were a lot of games, which is great, but a lot of PC port. Also not many games that really stand out or that I would consider "must have".
Still no reason for me to buy a PS4 yet as a result.
On the bright side : Suikoden & Yakuza 5 !
Also, they remembered the Vita exist, for a moment.

Yep. Me not liking a conference means I can be berated by a bunch of overly defensive people, be called a "dumbass" (nice hilariously ill-timed edit by the way, I don't see how you think that does any good, hahaha), and that I have no friends.
Truly classy.

I am absolutley baffled by some of you. What the hell do you expect from a fan event conference in the middle of December? It was great and they accomplished what they set out to do.
Let's hope this encourages Microsoft to do similar events in the future. Saving everything for E3 is boring in my opinion. I much prefer "smaller" events like this and direct online approach Nintendo has taken.

I didn't say.....YOU didn't have friends. I said that the game itself looks quite fun, if you have friends.
The fact that you are on this"interactive dvd" crap is nice though.
Some of the negative reactions are silly and/or trolling. Not going to point 'em out. But others are fine. Not everyone will have the same oppinions on the same games as you. Nothing wrong with that.
With that said, I can agree that the conference was pretty good. I think a lot of people got swept up in the month long hype. Not surprised by some of the reactions.

Great show. But the ending was meh. And screw Square Enix.
I was actually enjoying the show, but Square had to ruin everything.

That doesn't excuse a poor showing like that FF7 "reveal" and peter moore coming on stage just to announce "FREE GAMES! but they will be 2 bargain bin games from 4 years ago and a DD title and only for this weekend" and whatever the point of that Persona 5 moment was
tbqh the "big games" were really uninteresting.
-Uncharted 4 was like Uncharted 3.5, the game need a change in it's formula and style asap, even the graphics weren't that good and don't scream "next gen" at all. animations were janky as well as the bad water effect.
-No Man's Sky is just boring, there is no goal and there is no "game" inside this thing other than going to see the moons, which is pretty bad design to do and I can see myself play this for 5 mins then never touch the game again.
-Bloodborne is really nothing new, From is a one trick pony and this is another soul game with different color, people might like more of the same thing but I just don't care.
-The Order 1888, everytime they show it it's feel really boring. the weird thing this time is that it feel like whoever was playing was having hard/bad times or maybe was just bored out of his skull.
-SF5. yeah Ono seems like he is following Namco with not doing huge improvement anymore.
-Until Down was just another interactive movie like telltales and QD games and they don't even bother to make it seamless anymore.
-David Jaffe game seems like it'll be cool if it was early PS3 era, now yeah I just don't feel it.
Yakuza 5 announcement was the best thing (and maybe only good thing) about the entire show for me.

I was hoping this experience would give me a reason to buy a PS4. It gave me Yakuza 5, and Suikoden I&II, and that's it... none of which are coming to PS4.
If Sony thought this conference would get me to rush out and buy a PS4, they failed. In that regard a 0/10.
Megatons? 3/10. Street Fighter V was leaked beforehand, and while hoping for Crash and TLG was pushing it, is it really too much to ask for a new DMC or Dragon's Dogma? Gravity Fucking Rush 2? A new Siren or some shit. Sony is failing so hard right now in this department, I am resulting to buying older consoles to play games I missed out on.
I'm sorry dozens of Indies wasn't enough to make me enjoy this conference Sony. I'm starting to think the only people who have it straight right now is Nintendo. Sony is not catering to same audience that grew up with a PS2, and the PS4 looks to continue the trend the PS3 loosely started. Now it looks even worse.

Agreed. It offered a lot of exciting and unique stuff. Until Dawn was definitely one of them. I'm really excited by the prospect of playing that with family and friends as a "choose-our-own adventure" like the guy was doing with the crowd.
I thought it was very solid for their first show. A lot of cry babies here.
If it wasn't for FF7 remake trolling (which I have to say, the reactions here, PRICELESS!), then the reactions here would be a whole lot calmer. But no, just one trolling and suddenly the whole show for them sucks. Yeah ok.

I think its more a problem with your perspective then the games.
Hey look, I know what you mean about those DVD games and you're not entirely wrong about it being the same kind of thing.
Some of us are interested in playing that kind of thing when done well though, I grew up in a time where Dragons Lair was considered an interesting bit of gameplay and that was the father of all QTE games ever made.
It looked decent, there was no unfair level of hype with it, it was scary. It will probably be cheap too. All good things but you posted the equivalent of tagging a Steam game with 'not a game, walking simulator'.

It wasn't. Did we not watch how amazing the game can be when you have people yelling at you to make a decision?
How many horror movies have you watched when you wished you could change the action of the actress. It looks like a fun game to play with friends. I wasn't insulting his personal life, just stating another situation in which it could be enjoyed.
Sorry some of us can come up with way to make what seems boring into a fun activity.
You should probably sell your PS4. If this is what you thought of the games shown

If you actually took the hype seriously, you really only have yourself to blame for your disappointment.
Lot of people don't consider indie games actual games.
It's a fucking sad world we live in I know.
If you want to look at it that way. The only "indy" game that I've played and not regretted it has been MInecraft. I've pretty much given up on those games but at least with the high budget games there's a better chance than not that I'll enjoy my experience.

Nonsense!
They act up like they know "stuff". THEY DON'T! "Megaton", "GIGATON", they know nothing.
You want hype? I can give you hype before these conferences start. But I won't pretend like I know top-secret stuff and post it on a gaming forum.
Stop listening to these guys and laugh at them. THEN, you're gonna enjoy these events much more.
+Uncharted 4 looks amazing.
+Free games from EA.
+Street Fighter V cross-play with PC online
+Yakuza games being localized
+Some other good announcements
- No megatons. Someone (insider) from Gaf claimed that there would be 3 megatons!
-No Crash and no TLG. These games were perfect for the 20th anniversary of PlayStation.
- FF7 Return.... Fuck Square Enix!
7/10 . Good.

I love the genre, so Until Dawn is up my valley. Last gen visual novels and point and click were almost dead.
I am happy with the resurgence.
I take pity on these people because they will never play the best platformer of this year.

The Yakuza 5 announcement and Bloodborne gameplay were really the only interesting parts of the entire keynote. Felt like I wasted my time.

Yup.
I thought we knew the Crash is a pipedream due to Activision.
I thought we knew that development for Ape Escape and the rest of them were down to money issues and the original teams being gone.
Like, i'm not about to get myself hyped up for games I know aren't happening anytime soon...especially not in the first year of the system. Come on now. I think some people really need to fall back with these outlandish expectations.
This is not the first and won't be the last. Square was fucked up though.

Somewhere behind good and very good. A lot of games were showed. Uncharted 4 is all I want it to be. The Order might be a very cool adventure. The Day of the Tentacle remaster announcement made me shout like a little girl. Tearaway looks as charming as ever. Bloodborne keeps on being awesome and No Man Sky makes me reach huge levels of hype.
Skytorne and Severed are games I definitely want to know more about.
Thank God, no Crash Bandicoot announcement. Please keep furries away from my Playstation, thanks. Nobody should lose their time on such a project. Nobody. Ever.
And Square Enix can go fuck themselves.
