IGN - Mercifully, Sony finished off the show with The Last of Us, a far better exit than Microsoft’s earlier reliance on Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Sony showed flashes of brilliance as always, and its two stars could well figure in many folks' lists of top five games of the show.
The old company is weighed down by its own troubles, under-performers like Move and Vita and a crappy stock-price. This 2012 showing demonstrated its positives and negatives. Sony, ultimately, is all about shifting hardware. Note the crucial difference between its laudable plan to connect its own Vita with PS3 and Microsoft’s plan to connect any tablet or smartphone with Xbox 360.
We may soon forget this event as, next year, a new generation of hardware unfolds. But we’ll always have two games that promise much, standing out against the year’s host of meat-headed shooters.

I mean, they have Gamescom to continue rolling out console exclusives, but they really needed to strengthen the image of their handheld now.
* GOW: Ascension gameplay
* The Last of Us gameplay
* Beyond: Two Souls reveal
* PS1 classics on Vita, along with unique COD and AC.
* Free full PS3 game downloads monthly for PS Plus!
* PlayStation Mobile for new Android devices.
But I think Ubisoft have won E3 so far. Waiting for Nintendo.
Couldn't believe how brutal The Last of Us was! And how gorgeous it looks!
I was surprised there were no price drops. Its been a while and PS3 needs to be $199.
what I liked about e3:
MS - halo 4, gears spinoff, forza and the smart glass/ie9 announcement.
Sony - all star battle royale, last of us, god of war and the playstation mobile announcement.
Ubisoft - rayman legends and I just watched the watch dogs this morn on ign and was really blown away at what I saw.
Last of us had great gameplay footage but watch dogs is the one to watch.
Microsoft didn't do a bad job, they just didn't do a good job; they focused too much on services, which made me almost turn their conference. That Black-Ops footage was 100% animated, by the way. I'll be talking about that in my blog this week, Lord willing.
Nintendo won't be much better, if not worse; the Wii U is just an animated controller and I don't care for that much, although I did hear about the Wii zombie game so I'm excited about that.
I'm looking at the webpage ad on the left of this page with Bud Bundy talking.... Who the $*#* says "pwned" anymore?
through the net. the last of us was game point. sony won.
he is talking about PSVita, what does the last of us has to do with anything?...
i dont really think its that hard to miss that sony basically ignored the Vita during the conference
They were supposed to convince gamers as to why we should get a Wii U soon instead of waiting a year or so for the next PlayStation or Xbox.
But they showed older multiplatform games and new games that can already be played on current PS3 and 360s.
They needed at least 1 or 2 big Nintendo exclusive announcements to make me want to buy a Wii U. The whole time I was like "where's the big reveal!?".
Its cheese not cheese pizza. At least get the saying right.
Not many that I'm interested in that have a release date/timeframe, unfortunately.
Gravity Rush-6/12: Might get at some point.
MGS HD Collection-6/12: Own the PS2 collection.
Lego Batman-6/19: Nope
Sound Shapes: No thanks
Madden 13-8/28: Bought this 7 years ago.
Fifa 13-9/17: Not a soccer fan
Persona 4-Fall: Atlus Fanboy
LBP-??: Will buy
Silent Hill BOM-10/1: WTF is this Konami?
Assassin's Creed 3-10/30: Need to see more first
Call of Duty-Fall: Hate
PASBR: Need to see more, but I already have Super Smash Brothers
Moving on past my release date analysis, I think the current release list is pretty lackluster. None of those games are going to bring the Vita sales out of the dumpster either.
Let the hatred begin, my Uncle Frank is calling me.
lol anywhere else and you'd be considered "off topic"
@--Onilink--
it doesn't You're talking to a die-hard sony ps3 fanboy who spreads his Cheer all across n4g, he doesn't care about the vita, ps3 issue. He's just a brat, simple as that.
Probably a reveal at TGS :)
"PS4 reveal. Too expensive. Very disappointing."
Have you seen God of War, Tomb Raider, Watch Dogs and the Last of Us?
Next gen can wait!
Dude how can you say Nintendo knows this gen is over , when from what I've seen the graphics barely surpass this gen xb360 or ps3
Of what I seen the wii u just showing another gimmick with the LCD controllers just like what wii did with the wii remote
Console war between Sony and Microsoft? The console war was not created by neither Sony or Microsoft, it was created by fan boys like you
Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo are in this for profit not for a console war
The middle of the conference was a snoozefest. Battle Royal crap (i don't get the appeal in this game). Hardly any PSV software (not a good sigh for the future of the console). God of War, Last of Us and Beyond: Two Souls look good, but too far away. Sony has no big exclusive for the rest of 2012.
Both had games that catered to their install base, I just feel like Sony's show overall was not better than MS this year.
It's a shamde because Last guardian would have parted the seas..
Evil
sony atleast showed off 3 of their new ip's. thats infinite times the amount MS has shown us in 3 years since MS hasn't had a new IP since the mediocre alan wake.
Sony's conference was fine, stop whining
I liked MS's press conference but they are focusing so much on non-gaming features that I am wondering what audience they really care about. There are tons of options for entertainment in today's age and while I like that they are moving the 360 towards an entertainment hub like Sony has done with the PS3 ... I don't buy gaming consoles for movies, music, or internet. I have a game console to play games.
Like Halo 4 a lot, but after that I think Sony showed the reason we even care about E3 ... Video Games. Looking forward to see what Nintendo brings today.
Again both had highlights and games to look forward to, but as for overall show, MS won IMO..
Evil
I observed both conferences with no preferences in mind, and I saw Sony was better than MS. Ubisoft though dominated both.
Looking forward to Nintendo conference.
I can't really decide who was better content wise, but I know this:
Microsoft was better than I expected.(yes, I expected that little)
And Sony was worse than I expected.(although I wasn't expecting much.)
I think we all need to admit that Sony had a powerful setup and completely dropped the ball. Microsofts conference was better than last years, even though it wasn't great, and Sony's was worse.
Ubi topped them all so far though AND was a major factor at both ms and Sony's conf.
Ubi topped them all, though
And Wonderbook? My God, if MS had came out with that there would be memes for months based on it. Why it needed so much conference time I don't know.
Not a great E3 for Sony whichever way you spin it. It was slightly better than MS, but that's not something to jump for joy over.
E3 floors open today in full and we'll be seeing more about a great many things, including Vita titles that were not in the presser.
It's also laughable to hear people discount Sony because Sony didn't announce a rumor into which a poster here placed far too much stock. Not that the person actually cared about the rumor being true, rather they are grasping any straw going over the cliff which they can throw at Sony.
The industry that has been so hard on Sony this generation on the whole acknowledges Sony fared far better yesterday than did Microsoft. However some people are so devoted they are going to say and believe anything.
Case and point:
http://n4g.com/news/924461/...
As publicly requested, words were marked.
You may think that Sony was "all about the games", but at least the three 360 exclusives that MS showed actually have release dates, or release windows (spring 2013) in the case of Gears of War.
When is Beyond coming out? When is Last of Us coming out? I guarantee that both games will be at E3 2013 as well.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - Sony bulks up it's E3's by showing games that are years away from release.
I guess it all comes down to personal preference. Do you want to see games that you won't be playing for at least two years, or games you'll be playing within a year?
i've been saying the same, but i get flame every time.
@Evil - You sir are delusional. If only you didn't had that blatant "360" at the end of your name, I think I wouldn't term you a "360 fanboy".
So let me get this straight..I'm 'delusional' because I said that in MY opinion Micrsoft had a better conference than Sony?
GTFOH..I at least back up my opinions. Take off the fan goggles and back up yours. If not keep it moving.
@ DK
I've been saying the same thing. Sony did show a couple of cool games, but the actual games that meant something didn't have release dates. Naughty has been upfront from day one that the game might not make it this year. But then what does that actually leave for the holiday season?
Evil
This is coming from a neutral standpoint. I don't think anybody won E3 this year unless you include Ubisoft.
They ALL dropped the ball somehow.
At least Sony had games.
Halo 4 - second E3 appearance
Fable: The Journey - second E3 appearance
Ryse - had it's second E3 appearance last year
Gears of War 3 - announced early 2010, released fall 2011
Fable 3 - announced August 2009, released October 2010
Halo Reach - announced at E3 2009, released in fall of 2010
Star Wars Kinect - announced at E3 2010, released a few months ago
That's the bulk of MS's major releases, and almost all of them had two E3 appearances.
Of course, you guys spin it to sound like Sony is the only one that does it. The only two games you mentioned were Beyond and Last of Us.
Funny that you ignore PS Allstars, Ascension, LBP Karting, all of which were announced in the past few months and releasing this year, but could have just as easily been announced at E3. Or two years ago when Socom, MotorStorm, Infamous 2, Killzone 3, and LittleBigPlanet 2 were all announced in the few months prior to E3. Or Uncharted 2 and 3, which were announced under a year before their release.
Yeah, Sony probably does show more games at E3 that are further off than Microsoft does. Probably due to the fact that Sony offers more games, period, and spreads their other announcements out throughout the year. Sony doesn't need to hold back all their announcements to pad their E3 showing.
LMAO @ Beatkiddie that was sooo original after I used it as an earlier comment..is that all you got? See not only are you STILL wearing the Sony goggles, but now it's apparant you graduated to the entire helmet and visor. But remember..you came in here and started it
Let me school you on E3 appearances..
There is a difference between making an TRUE appearance on the E3 stage and merely showing a slide that shows the title of your game or a quck teaser that simply gets the announcement out there.
Halo 4 had a quick teaser last year with the announcement of Holiday 2012..guess when it going to be released. as advertised.
Fable: The Journey got a demo last year on the E3 stage and Micrsoft just simply showed the trailer and it will release this summer
Ryse was originally Codename: Kingdoms an announcement..then it got a teaser trailer announcing the new name..then it was announced that it would skip this gen entirely.
Gears made the stage twice because it got pushed back from it's original slot to the Halo September slot.
Etc Etc ETc..
BUT the TRUTH about EVERY one of those years..those games were NOT the big game Micrsoft was pushing for THAT particular year.
Micrsoft has almost perfectly executed it's huge releases and promotion of them at every single E3.
The only game that got killed was Alan Wake getting killed by Red Dead deciding to change it's date to match Alan.It ended up still doing a million plus.
This year it is a FACT, that Beyond, God of War, and Last of Us got some primo stage time at the show..All great games ..but NONE will be coming this year.
If you REALLY want to hype the fact that Super Smash Sony or the Little Big Karting game are coming instead then missed the point entirely.
See what is amazing is that those two games are casual games no matter how you slice it. But, NOW it's ok to say that it's oool to release casual games after non-stop hardcore hardcore hardcore is all that was heard from the rafters of the MS haters.
This post E3 is classic..
Evil
Only you would need to make up rules about what qualifies as a "TRUE" E3 showing and treat it as if it's fact. Just mindblowing. Only you would find a way to knock Sony on the basis that when they show games, they actually SHOW THE GAME.
By the way, I love the "beatkiddie" thing. When it comes to wild spin and childish, immature name calling, you never fail to disappoint.
'Only you would need to make up rules about what qualifies as a "TRUE" E3 showing and treat it as if it's fact'
LMFAO @ your fan helmet screwed on so tight that you can't dispute ONE point I made as not being FACT so you resorts to calling it 'damage control'? LOL
Wheres the damage? You jumped in the convo tried to call names because you predictably were so b-hurt as usual at ANYONE daring to say ANYTHING that isn't negative spin like yourself.
But when someone direct that same negative right energy back at you and shows a counterargument you can't even come up with ONE point to back up your originl claims.
Same ol' Same...you keep jumping up to get Mr. Beatdown again and again.
Now that is Classic..
I gotta stop having too much fun poking holes into this lame console elitism from the usual suspects. Thank god REAL fans of consoles arent like this offline..
Evil
Are you even capable or carrying on an adult conversation without resorting to name calling even grade schoolers would find lame?
I don't need to dispute your little excuse arguments individually Evil. As I said, you made up your own little rules, and each one of them is irrelevant because only you want to play by those rules. Publishers don't. Gaming media don't. Gamers don't. Well, at least the logical ones.
When a game is revealed, it's because the publisher wants us to know about it. They want us to anticipate it and ask about it. If they want us to care, it counts.
But no. You act as if major announcements are non-existent, because they are revealed with a crappy teaser, or even worse, are revealed without a name attached. Like I said, only you would spin a substantial reveal as a negative. Because without those rules you've conveniently invented for yourself, you have to play by rules that the rest of the planet plays by, and you don't want that because you're desperate to find one more way to prop up Microsoft.
'More childish names. Sad.
Are you even capable or carrying on an adult conversation without resorting to name calling even grade schoolers would find lame?'
So let's keep it 100% real..people with eyes can see
As usual I'm minding my business when Mr. Beatdown comes @ me with...
'I see DK and Evil have the Microsoft goggles on again'
Then when you responmd to his attack he comes with..
'Classic EVILDEAD damage control.'
But, if you simply tease his lameness he the cries wolf on N4G to try to iply he's sooo insulted..but ignores thst FACT that he always starts it.
'Are you even capable or carrying on an adult conversation without resorting to name calling'
LOL..look my original point stands, I could care less what this lamde thinks. He will go on and on and spin negative but when you respond he puts his thumb in his mouth and literally tries to claim you are doing exactlty what HE'S been doing from day one.
Nuff said point original point still stands
Evil
It's amazing what nonsense you come up with.
And don't get me wrong. I'm definitely not insulted by such zingers as "beatkiddie" and "fan girl" that you've thrown out there. I find it more amusing, and indicitive of what kind of person it is I'm talking to. Name calling speaks volumes about a person's maturity.
It's also quite ironic that here you are saying "your original point stands" yet you were the one telling me I couldn't dispute what you replied to me with, even though I did.
You've invented rules to play by, because the logical, reality-based approach the rest of the gaming world takes doesn't give you the opportunity to sing your praises for Microsoft.
It's also kind of funny that thus far, I've listed nine games that Sony will or have released in under a year from release, in addition to seven recent MS games that were announced over a year ahead of time. Both lists represent the majority of Sony and MS's releases in the past two years or so. In two ways, I presented factual evidence the proves both you and DK wrong and even portrays the opposite of what you and DK suggest.
The best you could do in response was make up excuses about what qualifies as being shown to prop up MS. Like I said, only you could twist and warp the showing of actual game footage and an abundance of details surrounding each game into a negative that counts again Sony, while treating the announcement of a game but being unable to provide any information, footage, or in some cases, even a name, as a positive.
Ironically, you accuse ME of spinning things into a negative, but all I pointed out was that both companies do it. Only you would percieve being on par with Sony as a negative.
Of course, I wouldn't ever expect you to budge from your ridiculous stance. You never do because you're out to either fool the people reading your comments, or fool yourself. I'm not sure which, but it's pretty depressing either way.
Microsoft's completely sucked (Trey Parker and Matt were hilarious though)and Ubisoft's conference was actually above average.
Hopefully Nintendo can reveal a decent line up of games for Wiiu, it's down to their show today on whether or not ill purchase their console
Without the jump on Microsoft, you think people in the US are really going to take a risk like Sony over Microsoft especially after the network fiasco that happened last year? Not unless they can make up for it--and they're not even doing that. Loyal fanboy or not, you've got to be an idiot to disagree. We're late into next gen, devs have been gnawing at the two giants to move up and they're just playing it safe. I don't care if Sony's had a big falling out with the tsunami, 24FPS is not okay for new $60 games. Remember when we were saying CoD:Black Ops was "visceral 60FPS?" That was 40-59FPS. Well, this is "visceral 30FPS;" or 20-30FPS. From Crysis 2 to Skyrim, The Last of Us, FarCry 3, Assassin's Creed 3, and the list continues! The hardware is simply not good enough for the games.
they could've shown only The Last of Us and then ended the show saying "come at me bro" and I would've been happy.
now the more important part, who is that girl in that ign video?
As for their Vita playing with the PS3, everybody seemed fine when Nintendo made a tablet for their system. Why is it okay for Nintendo but stupid or silly for Sony?
Microsoft:
Gears of War: Judgement
Forza: Horizon
Halo 4
Ascend: New Gods
Sony:
Beyond: Two Souls
The Last of Us
God of War: Ascension
PlayStation All-Star Battle Royale
They had pretty much the same amount aside from Kinect and casual crap. If anything, Ubisoft stole the show with Watch Dogs alone.
Wreckateer, Matter, Mark of the Ninja, Lococycle, Happy Wars, Dance Central 3.
Your point? Both conferences sucked.
@Virtual_Reality - Really? Another crappy FPS, oh boy.
''Your point? ''
That PS3 have more for the Core audience (not an opinion as you can see).
its like two homeless men fighting over a half bottle of beer thrown in the street.
OT: I don't care for all the moaning, but I saw a bunch of games that I am getting. Period.
I can't believe Sony did not announce anything and people think they "won" E3. We knew about every game except Beyond: Two Souls.
Calling the 360 wimpy makes you sound like a 12 year old fanboy.
You do realize that Watchdogs was running on a PC, right?
Its left for nintendo to save e3 2012!

luckly for them, the last 5 minutes or so of the show was good, so they could finish the show with a good touch, unlike microsoft that i just closed the tab with the feed when Black Ops 2 started...
still, they did best in the past, this one was so-so.
Giving away free content to attendees and announcing little to nothing for the gamers you "respect" and thank so much just came off as "please like our show, even though we have almost nothing.".
That's happening this year.
-Vita got left out in the cold big time (good thing that they are in L.A.).
-The PS3 games looked amazing, but weren't all of them previously announced?
-Wonder Book kept me laughing the entire 15 minutes or so. It will be great ammunition against Sony fanboys from now on.
It sure as hell beats this - http://gifs.gifbin.com/1120...
I'm sorry but your fanboy is hanging out. You might want to zip that back up.
Good: The gameplay demos shown were really good.
Good: Even though we had seen videos of AC3 and FC3, they showed new footage to make up for it, though the visual diference from the PC version at Ubisoft conference was a little "shocking:
Bad: Not too many games shown, only one was a surprise (maybe 2 if you count AC Liberation)
Great: Beyond and The Last of Us footage.
Decent: Playstation All Stars BR and GoW Ascension(not bad by all means, but nothing surprising since it still was good'ol GoW
Terrible:Wonderbook demo, the tech looks interesting, but the demo dragged on for too long.
Terrible:Almost complete disregard for the Vita
Meh: Playstation Suite presentation.
So overall, a good show for the PS3, terrible for the Vita
I love that the PS1 games are finally coming to the PSV. I just hope it's all PS1 games available on the PSN and not just those few titles that they put on the screen. I'll be disappointed if i cant play Vagrant Story since i recently started playing it again for perfect stats.
As well as that the only game worth playing on it is still only Uncharted GA, got it the day it came out and still not finished it. I am quite far into it, mind you, but still...
I do think that LBP coming to Vita will be the next game I buy for it, and im looking forward to that to some degree. Other than that though, the E3 conference did make me decide to buy a PS+ subscription (once the games start being offered later) and was like "Cool there is still a good few decent quality PS3 exclusives coming."
But as for the Vita, I am a PlayStation gamer and have been actually considering selling the Vita, while it is still worth something.
After watching an awesome demo gameplay footage of The Last of Us, I can't help but see the symbolism of Joel and Ellie (the game's protagonist) with that of the worldwide Sony gaming community. The struggles of Joel and Ellie to survive in a world gone decrepit greatly parallels the struggles of the superior and civilized Sony gamers fighting for true, traditional hardcore gaming in a gaming world gone casual. The savage, bestial foes in the demo represents the gamers who have degenerated themselves into allowing a certain "motion gaming" destroy the beloved Star Wars franchise; and for letting "Big M" rape their wallets for an ever increasing online access fee (for no reason at all but for greed). In all, the premise of The Last of Us symbolically represents the Sony gamers' fight to keep traditional gaming alive!
However, since E3 is an event for all gamers, including the Nintendo, PC, and Xbox gamers, I will not say anymore statements of ill intention. I'll admit that I'm happy for our 360 gaming brethren as it is rumored that Microsoft have an exciting, Kinect exclusive game called "Rear End Pump Action" where the 360 games get to play a gritty, British character called Ben Dover. For once, the classy, mature, and intelligent Sony gamers should be happy for them, and rightfully so!
Sony Gamers Lead the Way!
"My fellow Sony gamers", and pressed disagree and bubbled down.
Um, no...I did the same thing. I admit, I'm hardly a badass. Thanks anyway.
So what are you expecting from nintendo tomorrow?? Mario, more wiiU specs, WiiU demo, revamping their online community and the usual suspects of 1st party games...if that's all they show will you also say they sucked??...and you call yourselves gamers? More like spoiled, impatient, self-centered brats...un-freakin real.
Nintendo has 2 conferences, one for Each of their platforms. 3rd parties have been touted by Nintendo for months, and several big name media gamers are saying that the lineup for wiiu will be epic.
So yes, I DO expect a lot out of Nintendo.
Can those be AGENT, FF vs.13, GTA5...who knows but at least there is gonna be surprises.
Very sound logic, bro...very sound.
If they would have simply put these games names rather than 'secret' than where would the excitement be.
I know that sounds pompous, but Nintendo is all that's left, and if you think that it would get a re unveil without new titles than you're kidding yourself.
But the Sony conference began strong and ended strong and I can't begrudge that. More surprises would have been nice, though. Well, there's always Gamescom.
I knew Sony wasnt going to show much about Vita games which would suggest that Sony is going to focus on the Japanese market. Come TGS, you will see a whole host of Vita games announced.
Was The Last Guardian shown?
If you want to watch a reply, visit Gamespot.
By the way, to the disagrees... What exactly are u disagreeing with me about?
Microsoft only showed halo and splinter cell with game play.both looked great but all the rest were videos not real time and usher dancing, not even showing the game he was dancing for, and plenty of new sports channels and Mexican bing search and Kinect angry birds.
Don't insult true gamers intelligence and compare the two conferences as "equal".poor deluded fools
I honestly was expecting the Sony conference to be huge but it wasnt which adds to the disappointment factor.
@garos82 I can seriously call it even. And no.. I am not a "poor deluded fool" thank you very much.
I agree with Jazz4108. I actually thought I seen more games from MS? They had the Loco Cycle, Matter and that cool game Ascend. Maybe they just paced their conference better around features vs games. I nearly tuned out with all that Windows tablet talk.
Sony started strong, too, but the problem was that everything other than Beyond and that murder-worthy Move game were things we'd already known about. Still, Last of Us finally gave us a view of what the game will be like, and Beyond was a potential show-stealer.
I agree with everyone else, though, if PS Vita is supposed to hold people over until PS4 or is supposed to be an extension of the PS3, they didn't really showoff or announce anything memorable for it. They had an opportunity and squandered a lot of it on that terrible spellbook game.
I'm sorry but on the Molyneux scale that spellbook game was an 8/10
At least sony pumped full retail new ips with them listening to feedback on consumers.
Microsoft showed Halo 4 which looked good but after that it was really meh tbh :/ fast fowarded a lot of the trailers.
Cool logic, bro.
Those games were good but not huge blockbusters that i come to expect from E3. they could have shown those games at any confrence.
MS made their confrence way to much like CES.
showed a small amount of games and then mostly crap. My logic is sound give the trailer a chance if it bores me move on and tbh they bored me. Gametrailers top ten what we want from microsoft summed up the whole confrence in number 8 before it even aired.
One word: Predictable.
The conference was decent with some really good games shown but at least it was much better than Microsofts.
as for the sony conference i was very happy with what they showed THE LAST OF US is a day one purchase for me and all the other games they showed and yes they could of shown more psvita stuff but i am sure there will be more shown on the show floor and there is other shows to come and they do need to show some new stuff there or everyone on here is going to say that that show sucks because you are all trying to get information about new stuff before the shows and they cry that there was nothing you did not know about just like this conference.
its is sites like this that spoil shows like E3 for all of us
Because it took up WAAAAAAYYYY too much of the conference and overstayed its welcome. A simple 2 minute trailer would have sufficed, but instead, we get about 10+ minutes of a painfully boring and akward gameplay demo that nobody except mothers who are looking to get their 3 year olds to play games cares about.
Almost anything else would have been better. How about some Last Guardian footage? ANY footage from some upcoming PS VITA games like killzone? Some information on The Agent? Any extra footage from Far Cry 3 like they did with AC3? A name or trailer from the new game sucker punch is working on? Any multiplatform footage where the dev has some kind of deal with sony (EA, Ubisoft)? Some Overstrike footage? There are tons more rumored and confirmed things they could have shown or announced in that time they wasted on that wonderbook crap.
This was a pretty disappointing conference. I love ps3, but I wasn't impressed by what I saw with God of War Ascension or The Last of Us. As for "Beyond", well the premise looked pretty interesting, and I like the fact that Ellen Page is the main actress, but we still don't really have a clue as to what kind of game it is or how we will be playing it. Is it a complex quicktime event game like Heavy Rain mostly was? Is it a third person game? Is it something new entirely? I don't demand gameplay from them, but I'd like some details at least.
I don't think there was a single thing that actually shocked me at this E3 other than Watch Dogs.
Microsofts conference managed to suck even more.
In tht sense Sony rocked it, they def stood up for ppl that have been gaming since the good ol days, and cattered to the massses to get more paper for their company over all.
Pls pls PLZZZ stop comparing the MS Conf to the Sony one, there was no contest.
Have to say, very disappointed that the Last Guardian and vsXIII weren't shown. Once they actually show these games it might be too late, what with the next gen being around the corner and all.
It's not looking good.
Beyond looks great, but other than that nothing new of note.
God of War and Last of Us looked fantastic though. Especially Last of Us. When I saw that the guy playing the demo has no ammo left I thought now he's going to get killed but then Ellie comes and throws something in his face so that he can crush his head on that commode. I mean wtf? That didn't look like it was scripted.
Wonderbook, sounds like a failure.
I guess I was right.
So far we haven't seen HL3, GTA5, AGENT, and numerous other games. The nicest surprise was Watch Dogs which looks fun and interesting.
