Official Sony E3 Discussion Thread

same ****, different thread...

edit: really sick of reading the flamewar bs, takes too long filtering out the crap to get the good information, give it a break.

Seriously, why is make a difference if the conference is going on?

From above

ps. Dhan - It's downright disrespectful and a complete mess to start going on about MS and the 360 during the Sony E3 conference. Many of you 360 only owners wouldn't have liked it if me and popisdead were in there saying "Sony are doing this better" DURING the conference - When people are trying to read news from the conference, not read forum arguments.

You KNOW how these forums are on comparisons, it's a pain in the ass for anyone reading at work or anything else following the E3 topic to be reading pages of arguments.

I said none of us done it during any other conference, so why do it in the Sony thread? Why?

same ****, different thread...

Prime example of why I told people not to start the "360 done this first/better" arguments DURING the conference.

It was a pretty dull E3 if you ask me, being a Sony fanboy and all I was expecting some secret ultra-news, but that didn't happen... :(

yeah, it felt quite deflating.

E3 isn't what it used to be, roll on tokyo game show.

So that makes me right about saying Sony's keynote was going to be a disappointment?

Badge is in the post. The line up of games wasn't a disappointment though.

It was no different in the Microsoft thread,

New Dashboard looks really nice!

Avatars look like they belong on the Wii (N)

"The magic of software" :)

I lol'ed

This part of Ms's resopnce to Sony's HOME, right?

I really want to see pix >__<

These three console compete and the comparison is inevitable.

It's the sad state of affairs that stops me posting as much as I would love to on these forums. Nothing can be done though it seems.

[Cornman]

Was boring though. I had to go play a game until it was over. :D

[Coldgunner]

thank you for the cleanup!

I think its safe to say that E3 will slowly disappear over the coming years, hopefully something else will pop up.

Whereas today we couldn't mention that it had already been done before OR PS3 is now catching up to what MS has done with the 360.

Oh well.

TGS is pretty much the new "E3"-esque convention we were used to. Things are definitely more exciting that time of year too with the holidays soon after.

Sorry guys, I got carried away.

I'll be changing my act around here, enough is enough. This topic is the epitome of pathetic. However no, I'm not taking the full blame for it, many of us are to blame.

Just know me acting the way I did was because I put all this effort into corrugating E3, getting links and topics for all you guys, and I thought we could avoid any of the little jokes/hits that have turned so many other topics into battlefields.

But hey, that's part of being a gamer. I'll deal with it.

It would be nice if some of you chilled out with the remarks in genuinely important topics, but hey, do what you want. If it's against the rules a mod will clean it up, not me. If it's not against the rules it will stand, and those are the rules everyone follows on NW.

Sorry again for rabbiting on and causing any arguments, and I hope some of you will follow suit after this. Let's clean this place up, get to know each other better as gamers, so we CAN genuinely have a joke at Sony, or a joke at MS/Nintendo from time to time, and know each of us are joking, not trying to cause trouble like a 13 yr old fanboy.

Enjoy the rest of E3 like I will be! :D

I hope Sony unveil Heavy Rain soon, my biggest disappointment not shown today :(

Would've liked to have seen

* more on 3rd party trophy support, especially for current AAA titles (GTA, MGS4/MGO, etc.)

* more on Home w/ definite release date for open beta

* more on 3rd party exclusives (Heavy Rain, Unknown R* Game)

* more on current online-capable games, emphasizing that, yes, PS3/PSN does have an online experience for gamers (MGO, Unreal, CoD4, RFoM).

* Word on FFXIII Versus, or whatever it is that Squeenix is producing for PS3, to blunt news of FFXIII going mult-plat.

Loved the part on the new download service. Everything else PS3-related was already known, including GoW3. No big "bomb". Hence people being disappointed.

Good ideas, good possibilities, but we need to see some stuff materialize.

I wasn't actually around to see the conference live yesterday or the Nintendo one earlier. I would have commented on them just as much if I was, just like I have for the past few years. But yeah, no need to tell people what to do and only let them talk about something when one person gives the go ahead. Especially when said person isn't a mod (N) .

As I said, there is nothing wrong with people posting their opinions, its a forum, almost everyone has an opinion about everything.

And I couldn't care less if someone wanted to rant on about how Avatars are a Mii copy, or how much better Microsofts press conference was to Sonys.

But people don't have to post like jerks on here, it only starts trouble, someone else argues with them, people get warned or banned, nothing is achieved beside a silly little argument when we could just get along if people were more civil.

I don't think telling people what to post and when will solve much, it rarely does, but if people could post in a better fashion and not like some 13 year old "fanboy" (no offence to any 13 year olds out there :p) then we wouldnt have so many problems.

That and some development for the PSP. It seems like a failed "platform" unless they actually do something.

[Coldgunner]

the video store is a nice *little* suprise I guess...

Would of been more of a surprise if they hadn't shown images of it a couple of weeks back, lol.

Streaming movies from PS3, Resistance on PSP, and a few other games. Seemed okay on that front to me. I don't own a PSP, so I didn't watch much of that part.

That's good of you to say that AB!

I'm sure people admire your hard work for the links, information etc. and the fact that you tried to avoid arguments, it just got a little too harsh imo.

I'm looking forward to the rest of E3 now the 3 main conferences are done with :D

Hands down the best part of Sony's conference. I don't know if that's a good thing or not, but it was pretty damn cool! :)

I guess nothing came of this? Such a damn shame. My cousin and I got so excited about that. He even said he'd buy a PS3 just for a new TM game.

Nope (N)

Jaffe said it's in the works, but Sony mentioned nothing.
