Sony showed off enough content that I want to result in me being very happy with their conference.

Overall, it did exactly what I wanted and was able to match the MS conference for me. I'm so happy to see ALOT of games in my future for both consoles.

Oh and..... Grim Fandango!!!!!!!

The only minuses I would give Sony would be based on a few parts that got really slow and took some of the edge off the excitement of the games, and for the lack of detail on games I really want to see (The Last Guardian and Project Beast come to mind)

Oh yeah I was so annoyed they didn't show TLOU gameplay. Given they said thats what is different. They said they used Cutscene models ingame. So showing us slightly sharper cutscenes isn't good. I want to see part of a level played. 

The problem with the MS games is that even their new games aren't that interesting this year.

 

Sunset overdrive looks pretty damn great.  There big highlights were remakes of Halo and a remake of Crackdown though.  I get that Halo sells and people love the series but announce new games, not stuff we played 5-10 years ago.  

So that's it?

 

Well overall feeling is a meh. Neither Sony nor Microsoft showed anything particularly noteworthy.

So many remakes and sequels.

I'm more disappointed by Sony's lineup than Microsoft's, I was expecting a little more variety from Sony. But no, just the same old rehashed stuff. About the best thing between the two conferences was Insomniac's surprise trailer. 

 

All aboard the Nintendo hype train I guess. 

Time to crash :sleep: These E3 marathons don't get any easier :p

 

Now don't you guys be trolling while I'm sleeping. I'll catch up with you tomorrow :rofl:

 

Have a good one and see you for Nintendo. I'll update the OPs with as much news as I can later today.

I felt like sony was trying to troll Microsoft with the TV and camera things ...


I have no interest in Sunset overdrive, give me Uncharted instead anyday!

 

For my own taste in gaming the most interesting exclusive shown in both conferences was The Order.

 

Sunset Overdrive looks really nice tough imo.

Regarding Project Beast, you guys were right, but my mistake was confusing that name with Capcom's Deep Down game. That was the game that I was hoping to see more of.

Sunset looks bad, the gameplay may be fun, but looks bad.

So The order is not a multi-platform?

please, lets refrain from making statements based on opinion and pushing them as a general truth.

The Order is PS4 only.

Sunset looks bad, the gameplay may be fun, but looks bad.

So The order is not a multi-platform?

Ah so graphics are more important than gameplay? The Order looked dull to me, but oh well " ooh shiny "

I think both conferences were actually weak. To the point i'm not even sure i'll buy a new console this year. I'll play all multiplatform games on PC anyway. There's no way i'm gonna play Witcher 3 or the new Batman on consoles while i can play them with real next gen gfx on PC.

 

I can't recall all exclusives shown and i'll surely forget one of two but for the most part it was meh.

 

Fable 3 : i've yet to play a great Fable game. They are okay but ...

Forza Horizon 2 : i'm interested i like Forza serie but on another hand i like GRID/Dirt series too and i can live with only thoses.

Sunset Overdrive : looks cool i want to play it.

Crackdown 3 : I liked the first one but it was also lackluster and a disappointment so i'm not holding my breath too much.

Dead Rising 3 DLC : AWESOME TRAILER hope it is coming to PC too.

Scalebond : looks bad but i'll need to see more but is it like Pokemon for adults ???

Halo 5 : was not really shown :( .

Halo 2 HD with all the bugs that killed the original at high level on XBox forcing people to use trial accounts to start at low level again and avoid all the exploits in the game : yeah GREAT move to include the stupid superjump. ***** the map you said you loved so much while playing was almost **** unplayable at high level because of the stupid superjump. Educate yourself about a game before you go to speak in a press conference. What's next the return of bridging just for Halo 2 HD ... hope they did not forget triple weilding for extra ammo. It was a hard to do exploit but with needlers it was deadly.

 

The Order : looks awesome don't care about the black borers it looks really cool.

Uncharted 4 : never cared that much about uncharted and probably never will.

LBP 3 : looks like a great family game again. I could see myself playing that with my daughter no doubt about it.

Entwined : looks nice but well definitely not a system seller.

Let it die (not sure it is exclusive) : did not see enough but looks meh right now not a big fan of Grasshopper anyway.

Bloodborn (not sure it is exclusive) : did not see enough of it but it is From Software should be a good game at the very least.

Last of US HD : really want to play this one. One of the two PS3 games last generation i wanted to play on my 360 (with Journey).

Second Son DLC : looks nice but not a fan of Infamous either.

 

Anyway dunno i feel like in both case it is missing something. Specially something new. I mean Horizon 2, Crackdown 3, Fable 3, Uncharted 4, Halo 4, DLCs, lot of sequels few original content. I'm dying to play Last of US tough.

Sunset looks bad, the gameplay may be fun, but looks bad.

 

 

Who cares if it looks bad. Lifeless Planet gfx are average at best but i would still play that over a new craptacular Call of Duty.

Regarding Project Beast, you guys were right, but my mistake was confusing that name with Capcom's Deep Down game. That was the game that I was hoping to see more of.

 

 

 Me too it was a big letdown to be honest to not see that Capcom title.

Never understood the hype behind LBP. Would take Uncharted any day though, but unfortunately that's about all...not enough to get me to shell out for a PS4.

 

People have kids. Would you play Gear of Wars with a 9 years old girl ???

 

Nah you play Little big planet or Lego games or Mario games.

    • If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.
    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
    • A bit like the steamdeck, this probably isn't for you.
    • Gamers Nexus already did their review, and building your own will be faster and cheaper, so not very convincing.
