Were you really expecting a price drop after 6 months when the console has been sold out for half of them? I think the reason you found the conference disappointing is that all of your expectations are completely unrealistic.

I wasn't expecting a PS4 price cut, but they stated that install base was more important to them than profit, just recently. With Microsoft's aggressive move of a $100 price cut, I thought they might do it. However, a PS3 price cut and Vita price cut were expected by Pachter and myself. As I said "It's high time."

Some of the games I mentioned like The Last Gaurdian and Wild Arms 6 were rumored and reasonable to hope for. Especially The Last Guardian, since Sony just confirmed it is not cancelled. How many freaking years does it take! Just like FFXV/Versus XIII!

Anyone expecting Last Guardian didnt' think it though

The very fact they came out and said "it is not cancelled" shoudl have let you all know it was a no show.  If they were going to show it, they would have stayed quiet and let the trailer talk for them.  But since it wasn't at their conference they needed to clarify that its not cancelled.

E3 wasn't terrible. What kind of stuff did you guys expect to be announce. They announce mostly everything the fans wanted, Halo, Uncharted 4, Crackdown, a new Tomb Raider, new IP.

the only game that would make me insta buy a PS4 would be the remake of FFVII, if they announce something like that would blow me away, anything else would be just wait and see if it's worth it.


lol, if they remade it, you'll probably complain that it sucks when it launches


only if they changed to much from the original:P may be they should start with FFIX remake or FFVIII and see the reaction xD 

the funny part is they say they listen to fans..and some remakes that ld probably sell like hot cakes (even consoles) they really dont give it a try (lets instead keep trying to revive tomb raider). 

Dude, if you know anything about the FF Fanbase, you would know that it's not possible to "listen to fans". Everyone wants something different. They can't just improve the graphics and call it a remake, many other things will have to change and even something as simple as voices will cause issues because someone doesn't like how Cloud sounds. IMO, they are better off leaving the classics alone or porting them to handhelds with maybe some extra content.

Why are you so sure FFVII remake will sell so much anyway? It just cannot be as good as the original because we have experienced all it has to offer before. A graphical tweak alone simply won't cut it.

Full blown remakes are just asking for more controversy. It's just better to use the effort on brand new games.

Thats why you should never believe rumors.

You said "No Dark Cloud 3, Wild Arms 6, Legend of Dragoon 2, The Last Gaurdian, Battle Royale 2, Sly Cooper, Gran Turismo 7"

You wont see anything from Gran Turismo 7 until next year, they don't want to overshadow DriveClub.

Wild Arms 6, Dark Cloud 3 and Legend of Dragoon 2 as much as Id love them to be made...They probably never will :(

The Last Gaurdian you have a point here.

Battle Royale 2, Sly Cooper will probably never be made either due to both selling kinda bad.

I am not so naive to believe all of them, but I wish some would have shown. They should have shown some of Drive Club.

Microsoft didn't do a price cut.  They removed features and it was out of desperation.  Sony had no need to do the same.

People are suggesting it as a way of a Fatality, Finisher, Final Punch, twisting the knife, ect.

I mean imagine if Xbox One removes Kinect and cuts price $100 (they did), then PS4 adds their Eyetoy (kinect) and doesn't raise price. 

Or I recently read that PS4 is making profit on each unit sold now, so they could lower price and do the loss again.  So just lower price $50 and bam they are cheaper AGAIN versus Xbox One.  

But instead they kept the same price and same features and now it will be a battle, a fair battle one could say and interesting to see what system peopel jump onto when upgrading now.  Seeing as 90% of both conferences were Multiplats with touting Early access to dlc, features, beta ect.  Each system has their own exclusives enough to make the system appealing over the other.  So what will be the deciding facotr now in purchasing.  The $100 barrier isn't there anymore.

Come on... you enjoyed saying that a little didnt you?

I completely agree with you. Like what is wrong with sony??? Showing U4, LBP3, the order and whatever crap else they chose to show. And that silly looking infamous strike first or whatever its called!! And the most annoying thing is having to bundle the white PS4 with destiny, that should have been the color the PS4 was released in to begin with, instead its just another black box.

And they wasted 20 whole fucking minutes talking about playstation vita TV and the stuff they are going to add to PS+, and lets not forget that horrible playstation now. who told them I want to be able to stream crappy PS3 games on my PS4??? And then don't veen get me started on the indies, ABZU? wtf kinda whack name is that?

What I wanted for this show was FF15 gameplay and released 2014, GT7 shown and released 2014 and supporting their VR headset, GT6 coming out last year isn't an excuse. Also wanted legend of Dragoon, Syphon filter, the last guradian, GOW4 shown and released this year, wipeout for the PS4 and wanted them to drop the price of the PS4 to $299. A $50 price drop just wont cut it, being almost 4M consoles ahead of the XBO is not an excuse to become complacent, now the XBO is also at $400 with PS4. Sony should know that MS will start outselling them now. And all those silly multiplats they were showing, to hell with exclusive content. Damn, I should have bought an XBO......

I respect your opinions, but please don't use curse words on my posts. I am a Christian. I had forgotten about GOW 4! Where was it?! The answer to your question is no. I did not enjoy bashing my favorite game company, but I am an honest person and not a blind fanboy as some think.

I was actully being sarcastic, if i really said what i was thinking you probably would have taken offence more than you did. I'll give you the edited version.

 

  1. I completely disagree with everything you said.
  2. your expectations are the most unrealistic I have ever seen.
  3. How can you expect them to show GT7, when GT6 came out less than a year ago. If you are remotely a fan of that franchise (like myself cause i have plaed and owned every single one) then you wil at least have an idea how long it takes them to make a new entry in the series. We would be lucky if we get a demo for GT7 prolouge next year.
  4. FF15? KH3? you listened to the rumors and ignored the press release from square clearly saying that they weren't going to show those games. Besides, you realize thi is just one of 3 confrences this year right? And unlike nintendo and Ms sony fully participates in all 3. Has it crossed your mind that the japanese centric devs may want to reveal their games at TGS?
  5. GoW4? The PS4 was released around 7 months ago for crying out loud, you ound like you want them to release every major PS franchise in the first 18 months. 
  6. Price drop? To counter MS? please......

I could go on but dont see the point..... you expectations are just flat out unrealistic. Even worse, you make it hard to take what you are saying serioulsy considering you simply just downplayed everything that they showed and demanded everything that they didnt. Whats even more funny, is that you say you were most excited for the $99 PSTv, however, that is the one thing you dont need if you already have a PS4.

The most interesting thing to me was the Playstation TV. For $99 that's not bad. 


PSVita TV is a PSVita! i mean , it plays PSVita games has the PSVita blank card slot and hooks upto a TV supports a output resolution of 1080i on the TV so it may not have a built in screen , or the touch pad but that is where the DS4 comes in anyway, so the cost being $99.00 is one hell of a price cut in my opinion for a playstation Vita
