Forums - Gaming Discussion - With Sony out of E3 2019, are you ready to admit E3 is not the climax of gaming news it used to be?

E3 is boring and not what it used to be when ps3 and xbox actually had a rivalry now its like watching the warriors pound the cavs in the finals and nintendo doing its own thing in rebuild to conquer mode like the celtics were
Sports analogy +1

i think its an opportunity for MS to blow the lid off the place.

loved the presentation by MS this year, disappointed hugely by sony. and still being disappointed. Thanks poor mans austin powers layden. i like shu much more.

granted they have some big first party titles coming out this upcoming year but it seems they have moved on to gearing up for ps5 a bit too early, which makes me think what about BC with ps4 for ps5?... getting that vita feeling of abandonment as a ps4 owner.

Seriously? You are having Vita feelings of abandonment as a PS4 onwer?

Vita was abandonned after a bit more than 1 year, while PS4 already have top of the industry exclusives by Sony to hit as far as 2020, the year the system will be getting to be 7 years old...

Yeah...

please tell me how i feel. 

im ready for a ps5 anyways. i just dont feel any enthusiasm for ps4 with the way it is being handled in the final year. i dont expect you to understand, or to agree, i dont really care.



 

Looks like Microsoft is going to have the biggest show again, and more publicity to Microsoft during the biggest event of the year. All those fresh big name AAA games with the Xbox logo beside it. It's a good thing to have before the end of a generation jumping into the next. E3 2020 should be a major fight if Sony decides to put their all into that one.

To make things clear, I also don't care a single bit about how you feel.

Your analogy was just nonsense, that's about it, feel however you like to.

If releasing Days Gone, Dreams, MediEvil Remake, etc. is equal to abandoning the PS4 in 2019, I'm slightly confused as well. Of course, you can't argue against an opinion but that doesn't mean you can't express your disagreement and ask the person to elaborate.

Even one of the big TBD games (The Last of Us Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, Death Stranding, etc.) could potentially launch on PS4 in late 2019 with a re-release/BC on PS5. Personally, I don't see that as abandonment but to each their own of course.



Seems like E3 will lose importance... but with leaks all the time E3 had lost value long ago.

Yeah...

I would like to see his sentiment regarding X1 when it had much less 3rd parties and 1st parties released or that will release until end of the gen.

E3 hasn't had importance or relevance since 2008, we had the WiiMusic debacle and both the game and platform not only went on to do well that year the platform itself had one of the best years any platform has had in history this showed that what happens during E3 and how the market performs are exclusive of each other hence why ever since Nintendo reduced their involvement with E3 other companies have followed suit. R* don't even bother with the event and haven't for years yet still had the biggest launch of all time in RDR2.

Fact is E3 went from being an important marketing event during the pre-streaming era before the likes of Youtube and Twitch to just becoming a passing day dream for forum goers and companies are catching on to the fact that they can do their events and streams at more strategic times and save money as well. Don't be surprised if all companies eventually have their own Nintendo Direct like approach in future.



Today a company can make a live broadcast to announce shit on youtube at a much lower cost than attenting a big event like E3.



TGS sucks.

The End.

Sony will be back in 2020. I'm sure of that.



In terms of announcements, definitely not. E3 is still easily the most important event.
