Support NeoGAF

[gamergirly]

One thing about both MS and Sony's conferences is....where are the price drops? Do they fully intend to release next gen systems with current gen at the same price over the next 1/2 years?

 

[Xplatformer]

Sorry Vita owners.

Can't see the Vita...in the end...getting more software support than the PSP.

And god help them if Apple comes out with a home game console and Sony has to put most of it's game R&D only behind the PS4.

 

[antonz]

Where are all the Vita games?

Wondering that too. Guy swearing up and down Diablo 3 would be announced said 30 vita games being announced lol

 

[Papercuts]

Yeah because Nintendo's conference is so great this year.


Oh wait..

It's saying they just have to show up because the others handed them the win.

But ubisoft is secretly king.

Giving People Free Seats in the Audience So That They Clap Because Journalists Don't Clap Enough
- Scummy, and I'm glad to see journalists on Twitter call it out.

Game Journos going rouge when it doesn't matter....

 

[Nilaul]

+ Beyond looked amazing
+ PlayStation Plus shows much more value as a service

- Nothing for the PSP2 besides a COD logo


2.7 out of 10

And that Cod will probably come out even to your mobile phone (ported to everything)... so.. it actually should be --

The Last of Us
- As always with Naughty Dog, excellent tech and visuals. Fire effects on the molotovs were wonderful.
- Also a good understanding of dynamic pacing rather than ALL BOOM BOOM ALL THE TIME
- Like the appropriate ammo scarcity and lack of heft
- Like the hostage taking, but I don't get why the guy put the gun to the hostage's head AFTER trying to shoot the other guy. The point of taking a hostage is to make people not shoot at you. When you shoot at them, they have no reason not to shoot at you.
- The girl looks younger than she speaks.
- Enemy banter stale.
- Love that inventory menu. Some much needed depth.
- Seems even more heavily scripted than UC.
- That facial shotgun shot with the thug letting out a desperate "don't" was very well directed and appropriate brutal. An economical approach to brutality in comparison to God of War's positively braindead caveman gore.

it looked like the hostage was getting rowdy and the gun to his head calmed him down

dunno why the other guy hesitated after being shot at though

 

[jman2050]

When was that made?

Dunno, found it on another forum. Funny thing is, it could've been made last year and it would still apply the same.

Yeah because Nintendo's conference is so great this year.


Oh wait..

The joke is that Nintendo didn't even need to do anything.

 

[thiscoldblack]

Pretty much.

 

[tycoonheart]

As a Vita owner that got the FEB and bought into Sony's hype, I'm pretty pissed. Sony seems to not give a care as to whether or not the Vita actually succeeds. The cupboard looks like it's quite bare aside from a few 3rd party scraps.

I'm pissed because I let GAF hype me into fucking buying the Vita, which I haven't touched since 2nd week of buying that piece of shit.

 

[Razdek]

I agree with the post about why they would use an adult to demo the Wonderbook and still fail at it. When MS demos the kinect they use happy fake brats but at least they know the audience they're trying to target.

 

[kingocfs]

You people throwing out B's and 7/10's must not own Vitas.

 

[perineumlick]

I feel the same way. They had that long montage at the beginning and spent about 25 minutes talking about that book - which is cool, but not for me. MS packed in more actual gaming content.

Halo 4. That's it. COD BLOPS2 was lame. TLOU showing was better than MS' whole conference.

 

[Tingfrmnongpradu]

E3 isn't even worth getting hyped for anymore. Unless there is a new console reveal it's just fucking lame as shit, for EVERYBODY. Sony fanboy, MS fanboy, Ninty fanboy, it don't matter.

Luckily for Ninty they have a new console to reveal!

IE on 360? OH THE JOY! ORGASM!!!!

And Wunderbook? No words for that POS. It'll be lucky to sell 100 fucking units.

And VITA? WTF? Where's the games? I gotta agree the future is not too bright for it, and of course I had to buy the fucking thing.

I need more alcohol, and Dragons Dogma to wash away the disgust I feel right now. Smfh Sony. TLOU was fucking awesome though. Day 1 for that one.

 

[EatinOlives]

you're clowning yourself if you think that 8 games....count it, 8 games shown at sony presser is better then what microsoft showed today. that is fucking laughable to even compare the two pressers.

those who are defending this press conference is crazy.

You're clowning yourself if you think MS's showing of 90% random filler was better than 8 actual games. I take it you're a fangirl of Usher?

 

[Ithil]

+ Beyond looked amazing
+ PlayStation Plus shows much more value as a service

- No Last Guardian
- No Kojima
- No South Park
- No price drops
- Nothing for the PSP2 besides a COD logo
- Anything Ubisoft related
- Anything Move related
- A fucking book
- GoW the same shit
- Uncharted with zombies

2.7 out of 10

Uncharted HAD zombies, and how in god's name was that Uncharted with zombies? Did you even watch the gameplay video?

 

[DisenLedZep]

The Last Of Us made this conference SO great...
This game and Watch_Dogs are on my top tier, must watch close, list.

 

[clav]

How are you people rating Beyond positively when there was no gameplay shown?

 

[Globox_82]

Solid conference imo. Better then last year. GOW, Beyond, LOU looked insane. They get B + from me.

 

[Jotamide]

sony should pay ellen page and make her the official mascot of the playstation brand.

Incoming All-stars new character!

 

[Tuck]

What happened to Overstrike from Insomniac?

 

[Majine]

Some score adjustments after some thought.

Microsoft 3/10
+ Matt and Trey
- Long periods of no games being shown
- Final game wasn't an unannounced one
- No real megatons

EA 5/10
+ Very little bullshit, just game to game
+ Simcity
- No Mirror's Edge
- Boring

Ubisoft 9/10
+ Far Cry 3
+ Rayman Legends
+ Assassin's Creed 3
++ Watch_Dogs
- Annoying co-host
- Bad start

Sony 5/10
+ Cool Stage
+ The Last of Us
- No Big Vita game that wasn't a port or a spinoff
- Too much time spent on each demo
- Especially the magic book
- No final reveal

 

[ari]

this is some sad shit that sony gets better grades then microsoft after that wonderbook shit.

How in gods name are you people rating this conference higher? seriously? wow.

 

[Liquidus]

And that Cod will probably come out even to your mobile phone (ported to everything)... so.. it actually should be --

Hence the minus besides it but I agree.

 

[Fezan]

How can any one give sony above F .
The GOW graphically looks like top of the class it almost look cgish but nothing new was show.yes picking up weapon and magic doesn't count> they should have just show on big boss fight but no normal enemy
the last of us looks great but we have seen trailer before.beside that nothing was even remotely intresting. and that magic book thing.EH

grade :F

haven't seen the ms conference so cant compare.

 

[elty]

Where is
- Game Streaming
- Diablo 3
- Vita price drop

 

[test_account]

damage control is really spinning tonight. lol

If you have played Smash Bros and seen reviews from the first unveiling of Battle Royale, you would probably also know the difference

 

[Razdek]

I'm pissed because I let GAF hype me into fucking buying the Vita, which I haven't touched since 2nd week of buying that piece of shit.

I'm with you. At least it has a nice screen or whatever.

 

[Finalow]

beyond and the last ot us only games that looked pretty good.
bad conference by Sony but still better than MS.

 

[RellyRell28]

Yeah because Nintendo's conference is so great this year.


Oh wait..

That's the point of the gif. They did nothing and Sony, EA and MS destroyed themselves.

 

[ToHrU AdAcHi]

Did we really need that much Wonderbook stuff?

That was one of the blandest presentations they've done.

 

[Kandrick]

My review, reposted from the other Sony E3 conference thread:


Giving People Free Seats in the Audience So That They Clap Because Journalists Don't Clap Enough
- Scummy, and I'm glad to see journalists on Twitter call it out.

What ? There seemed to be extreme clapping and cheering for about anything, guess that explains it.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

The disappointment from Nintendo’s conference will be delicious.

 

[scorpscarx]

Not interested in any of these games really besides Shootmania.

That FarCry trailer was sexy as hell and I definitely want to play through that when it hits bargain bin on PC. Same goes for AC3, naval battle was cool.

 

[zroid]

laughed out loud. am still laughing. the best!

 

[SolidusDave]

mh, just remembered the Diablo III rumor from earlier, I guess it's not true then.
That would have been a cool thing to announce. Just like when Gabe went on stage to announce Portal 2 w/ Steamworks for PS3.

 

[Barry Burton]

Ubisoft: B+
Sony: C-
EA: D
Microsoft: F

No other way around it.

 

[LOCK]

So either Nintendo has GTAV or R* is not releasing it this year, or they will show it latter.

 

[Alucrid]

The disappointment from Nintendo’s conference will be delicious.

I dunno, I think it's an easy first from Nintendo solely because of a new console

 

[The_Monk]

my PS+ is running out in November and I might just get another year. I just hope the hardware to keep alive.

The lack of Kojima saddens me a little.

 

[Tookay]

Sums it up.

 

[The Technomancer]

this is some sad shit that sony gets better grades then microsoft after that wonderbook shit.

How in gods name are you people rating this conference higher? seriously? wow.

Microsoft spent like half an hour talking about things that don't involve games at all.

 

[Struct09]

God of War and The Last of Us looked great!

 

[Melchiah]

Standings so far:

Sony: B-
Ubisoft: A (HOLY CRAP)
EA: C
MS: D-

What was on the Ubisoft conference? I missed it.

 

[Bolt Vanderhuge]

People leaving the conf. :

Is that "bored translator guy" or am I just racist?

 

[antonz]

The disappointment from Nintendo’s conference will be delicious.

Nintendo is going to have to take a shit in everyones seat and mail a box of shit to everyones house to somehow disappoint. They have 2 seperate conferences covering games

 

[Liquidus]

Uncharted HAD zombies, and how in god's name was that Uncharted with zombies? Did you even watch the gameplay video?

Sorry Uncharted: Drake's Zombies Revenge.

 

[falconzss]

I guess it wasn't just me who noticed the lack of vita games..
WTF Sony????

 

[clav]

The disappointment from Nintendo’s conference will be delicious.

Yeah that GIF needs to be switched to Ubisoft for now.

Wonder why it has Nintendo on it as of today when Nintendo's conference is tomorrow.

 

[ari]

I'm with you. At least it has a nice screen or whatever.

there is no difference. its a fucking ripoff.
