7.5/10.......

Then the price came up.

9/10.

I'm a bit bummed that no amazing new exclusives were announced for the PS4, and nothing new was announced for Vita (I think Sony is abandoning it), but hey PS3 is getting some really nice late life support..

I want to give it an 8/10 because they games didn't wow me, but the fact that PS4 is only $400, and can play used games, that made a HUGE impact on me.

----

Question is, can I pay for PS Plus on a monthly basis? I hear it's $5 a month, or $50 a year, so I think you can, and if this is the case, then I'm still happy. Problem with XBL was always that it only offered long term subscriptions. I'm the type of gamer to play a lot of online for a month or two, and then play single player the rest of the year, so this isn't bad.

Still I'm set on getting a PS3 first, going to get Destiny for PS3 and play online for free. $400 is not much, but I've had poor luck with first gen Sony consoles, so I'm going to wait it out a bit and enjoy my 360/Wii/PS3 and likely soon my Wii U for now.

Great system, that's what's the most important thing. I love how Sony listens

I completely agree with the italized paragraph. Thats exactly how I am too.

Couldn't care less about online gaming, so if it is indeed pay to play online no tears will be shed.
It would have been a 10 if there were new vita announcments (Not ports).

Overall o solid 8 for me.

10/10. I would go with 11/10, but that's reserved for any conferences that contain Tales talk and information.

Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts III, no used game DRM, no required internet connection, and $399 makes Sony the winner this E3! I mean I'm sure Nintendo's showing will be strong, but it would require a Tales game to top Sony at this point, and that's extremely unlikely to happen with Tales games not moving to the next wave of consoles for some time.

MS put on a really good show from what I am told(Didn't watch either conf but researched all the games). Unfortunately, the plethora of non stop gut punches with all the indies, 1st Party Exclusives, Functions and connectivity, FFXV and KHIII..........its over.

The no DRM video and the showing of FF15 and KH3 put Sony's conference up there but they had some few down moments and the PS+ multiplayer requirement kinda dampen things a little but the price was okay in the end.

Hopefully they announce more games as the convention moves along or something and as always Sony needs to do more for the Vita.

So the way I see it:

Microsoft had the more entertaining press conference but Sony had the golden gun and shot microsoft multiple times. First at the zero used games restrictions/online authentification and again with the price. Overall I'm fairly disappointed with sony's showing though, i wanted to see more exclusives and I thought their press conference was poorly paced and unnecessarily long. All the launch titles + Infamous deserved much better showings as opposed to 30 second trailers. They skimmed over these titles as if they had a ton of other exclusives to get to but that never happened.
-The Order Looked great, we've yet to see gameplay but of all the exclusives I'm looking forward to that the most closely followed by Infamous.

Still the ps4 is going to have the best launch in History.

Also I don't think FFIV and Kingdom Hearts 3 are exclusives. They never uttered that word, yet if it was sony would definitely have said so.

9/10, fucking outstanding. Bravo, Sony.

Sony easily won. They did everything right!

Gave it a solid 7 or 8. A bit of a shame, but I think Sony stole their own thunder a bit by revealing Killzone and Infamous at their console reveal. I did like the London horror thing, but it's CG so I don't give it too much excitement.

Like the MS conference it focused too much on multiplat games and not enough on exclusives.

Really felt VITA could have been pushed more.

I rated it higher than MS's conference due to the good news on DRM and price though. In the UK it's nearly £100 cheaper!
