Come on Sony, show of some of those 500 pound gorillas you're keeping backstage.
Nice forsight on them calling Gabe out.
I never ever type this in a message, but FUCKING LOL!!!

This is probably the closest I've ever gotten to having a sixth sense.

Who else noticed when they were introducing something "new for the psp" someone shouted "A PRICE DROP!!" I lol'd

Personally I loved the look of the Sorcery game and it looked like a lot of fun, and Playstation move seemed overall a lot better than Kinect, and I personally thought it looked pretty good. Only bad point was the price, I mean $80 for a motion sensor controller? That will be around £50-60 in the UK which is just insane imo

Of course saying that, I expect Kinect to cost more, but looking at what came up at E3 it looked dire.

The entire press conference was disappointing. The only interesting thing there was Kevin Butler and the only note worthy game announcement to me was portal2. It was funny how they were say how they were the only ones with 3d when Nintendo had it as well.

Sony's conference was kinda meh. Nothing in it really got me to excited. Then again it is hard to top about 50 attractive women strapped to Nintendo's new 3DS, just damn good marketing right there. The Portal 2 announcement was good, seriously though how long did Gabe Newell spend eating his shoes with that deal?
However, going on and on about 3D gaming I for one am not sold on the idea.
The Move looked good, (with Sorcery not Tiger Woods) but I'll have to experience it in comparison to the Wii.

Okay, so now I just finished watching it, and I gotta say that I'm fairly impressed. I didn't have my mind blown to smithereens, but it was a good showing if it was slow at the start. As much as it pains me to say it, Nintendo seems to have won this years E3 if only in terms of sheer number of announcements.

Seeing Gabe Newell show some damn humility on the stage made me a happy panda :D

No showing of The Last Guardian made me a sad one :(

Overall though, a good showing, and a helluvah lot better than Microsoft.
I would have agreed with you on Nintendo winning, if it wasn't for the fact that stuff doesn't even work. I mean just look at the Zelda game in the very beginning. Only about 1/3rd of Miyamoto's actions worked, either he was playing the game for the first time, which he wasn't, or I guess the presenter was right when he said hardware was only tools, only problem is that their tool is broken. That and the fact that all their announcements is just more milking of the same franchises from the last 20 years.

I would rate it as Kojima > Sony > Microsoft > Nintendo

Ha, yeah, I sort of snickered when Miyamoto said "As you can see, the Wii Remote registers my movements 1:1!" and his arm wasn't anywhere near where the sword was.

But looking back on the Sony conference, I do have to say I'm a bit more impressed then I was letting on. The Move demos actually did look fun, specifically the "Sorcery" demo, and some release dates were announced.

Though it seems odd that they LITERALLY glanced over "The Sly Cooper Collection" and "Patapon 3". I mean, seriously, they just showed a video with their names on it! How about a formal announcement, damnit!

And no "The Last Guardian" still makes me a sad panda...

Twisted Metal looked interesting, and so did the comedy that Kevin butler provided. If anything, Sony has the best advertizers. Apart from that the only good games were multiplatform anyways. I myself dont own a ps3 or have any space in my apartment for another console, so i guess i will miss out on Twisted Metal.

To the guys sobering over titles that were nowhere to be seen, remember this. It will be much better to see something once it gets to some point of good quality than seeing it prematurely and saying it sucks. Last Guardian did not show up but we got Twisted Metal WITH gameplay. I was kind of upset as well but has ever Team ICO led us astray? No.


What I really wanted to see was Castlevania. Eh, maybe later on. And let's face it, when you walk away knowing that you just got a friggin PORTAL 2 announcement for the PS3, that's pretty much better than any other day.

The new subscription service on the PS3 was hilarious, I'm not entirely sure why people are going to pay $50 a year for extras, when they already get online for free.Twisted Metal looked amazing but, unfortunately for Sony, was the only thing that looked amazing and was exclusive, sure GT5 will be great (I hope) but, it's not as if they actually showed us anything except a trailer at the conference, Killzone 3 is something to get at some point aswell. But I don't know if it's worth buying a console over, although PS3s do have nicer graphics and are more powerful than the 360, so there might be some advantage there, although Xbox live is just so much better I can only see a major advantage in single-player games. Nintendo clearly won this years E3 with the 3DS. Microsoft's was utter shit, Kinect makes me hurt inside although having said that the already confirmed Reach, GoW3 and Fable 3 look fun as hell.

Yeah, I agree Kevin butler was the only person in the whole of the 3 E3 presentations that made me laugh.

They showed Valkyria Chronicles 2! For a little bit...but yay!

Didn't really do anything for me. I can get battery-powered dildos that are a lot more fun for a lot less money thanks. I'm still more impressed with Kinect's technology than a camera watching some ping-pong balls. They had to add buttons onto that shit or people would just stick golf-balls on their hands and get the same experience.

And the PS3 exclusives? They look good enough but nothing to write home about.

I still vote for the 3DS as the most interesting new technology this E3. Sony bore me and MS put out too much shovelware at the same time as some genuinely intriguing titles. Seriously, wtf have Rare been doing? Worse. Studio. Purchase. Ever.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by the move, with some proper games i think it'd be interesting seeing as it actually has the whole 1 to 1 motion thing under control. I guess we'll see.

Still haven't finished watching Nintendo's press conference, but unless they're sending me a free 3DS with Pokemon Black & White, then no matter what was in their press conference, if we get any news on FF versus by e3's end then Sony takes it for me. (not that anything released after the press conferences really counts toward best conference, but shh! I really want versus!)
But if they announce versus going multi-platform then we're just back to square 1 again...

Sony absolutely raped Microsoft and Nintendo this year. I'm actually excited about the whole 3d and playstation move stuff now.

I would actually go so far as to say that this conference was better than Nintendos.

They could nail a ping-pong ball to the top of the PS3 so it matches their controller

I was thinking that Nintendo's was the best, until I saw Twisted Metal and Portal 2.

Helicopters and GLaDOS ftw!
