I'm surprised that PS4 and Vita didn't get a price drop announced. Maybe at Gamescom this year?
(Unless Sony is confident that the PS4 can still sell at $400 despite the Bone being $50 cheaper)
 
As a PS4 owner, the announcements get a big meh from me. It's a lot of stuff we expected, some stuff we expected didn't get shown, and otherwise there is too much "coming to PS4....you know, first, but not actually exclusive". I expected a good E3 from Sony to outline an upcoming fantastic 2016. Instead I'm questioning if it was even worth buying a PS4 this early.
 
Shenmue 3 comes to PC and the FF7 remake is only "first on PS4"? So still no need to get the console?

Thanks for bringing those titles to my attention, Sony! :P

Now we need a port or HD remake of Shenmue 1 - not many people own a Dreamcast and the nullDC emulator still has Ryo's hair glitching... :D At least we can play Shenmue 2 on Xbox 360.
 
So...

Sony won E3?

They "won" me with a FF7 remake, but timed exclusive and a powerhouse PC, I can wait. Outside of that, there's nothing PS4 can offer me. XBONE on the other hand, backwards compatibility and arcade purchase transfers is very appealing.
 
That all?
I expected more from Sony, far more..
They don't need to do more though, they're still smashing it for sales.... If the console suddenly starts tanking THEN they can go all out with their E3 conferences. With that in mind I thought it was a decent showing actually, MS's was certainly better and it turns out the rumour of PS1/2 BC was just that, but otherwise yeah, Shenmue and FFVII remake = :D. CoD's new home on PlayStation, well that didn't exactly rock my boat hehe, 'Dreams' looked awfully similar to Project Spark, which is arse by the way.... Uncharted 4, when we finally got to see it, certainly didn't disappoint though!
Overall... not bad for me! E3 hasn't exactly finished yet either, maybe they're saving a BC announcement??
 
I missed the event but this seems... disappointing. Seems like nothing big was announced except the FFVII remake. I don't care much about it. Most everything else was known about. Hell they didn't even get fucking Dark Souls III related stuff and Sony has been the foremost home of the Souls games since their inception.
 
There's a Mario game almost every single year? Where's the hype?
There was no mario game last year and I said a PROPER 3D Mario game. Not 2D, not a 3D side scroller, not a mario world, not a Party, not a Maker, not a 2D side scroller, not a spin off.
 
Fairly lackluster conference. I was hoping for some Project Morpheus announcement.

Dreams looks interesting, but until any real footage of the game is released i'm not too hyped.

Also they should've remade FF7 Crisis Core instead. Soo much better. Would've been amazing.
 
as far as the conference goes, it was pretty good but I felt it lacked things

was expecting a new gow ps4 game
no mention of r&c remake? or the movie for that matter
gt7? I guess this is a sign its going to be delayed several years again
ps4 and vita price drops were expected
vita content? (we a got a whole 5 seconds of indie game content!)
TBH I did not mind the lack of vita content on this E3 because they had so much to show it was really hard to fit Vita in there.
Last year it was just disgusting because they talked for 20 minutes about some uninteresting PS Plus Series instead of the Vita.
And we are still getting world of final fantasy for vita and Persona 4 DAN is playable on the E3. It's something.
 
Also they should've remade FF7 Crisis Core instead. Soo much better. Would've been amazing.

I'm glad they didn't - but wait a few years and that dream will come to reality for sure.

And yeah, they got me with the FF7 Remake. Now I've got to buy a PS4.

And because the Microsoft Conference was shit. :mellow:
