Why do people keep forgetting that Sony showed off Watch Dogs? That was definitely one of the highlights for me.
That being said, Sony's conference wasn't amazing. In fact it was a little too long and had a little bit too much tech demos. It was gamer focused though, Sony knew who would be watching the reveal so they catered to them. Microsoft knew the same people would be watching their reveal, yet they did their best to disappoint gamers.
We went half-way through the show without a single game being shown or even announced. Then the games they did show were some sort of sizzle real from EA Sports combined with buzz words such as "realistic", "experiences" and "content" and the obvious such as next-gen games will have better animation and graphics.(duh!) Quantum Break was the only surprise at the event, although it looks like some sort of Tv Show/Game hybrid which is weird. Forza 5 reveal wasn't impressive. It was expected, it didn't look next-gen and anyone would believe it if you told them it was coming to 360. Call of Duty's new engine didn't look impressive, we've seen current-gen games that look better than that, at least on a graphical level. Without any real gameplay demonstrations, it didn't leave a strong impression. |
Just wanna say that PGR5 was expected and Forza 5 wasn't expected to be a launch title. You can really tell the fanbase inquality when GT6 gets unviersal praise and hype, and Forza 5 reveal is dismissed. Sigh.

Forza 5 reveal is kind of dismissed because I think people are burnt out on it. There were 4 Forza games released on the 360 in its lifetime, its the same thing pretty much every 2 years. Heck, a new Forza has come out now for 3 years in a row, 2011, 2012, and now 2013. It is becoming the next Assassins creed where sure it will sell, but eventually people will get tired of it. Now, how many Gran Turismos have come out in the Ps3's lifetime? One. Gran Turismo, over the course from 2005-2013, has seen only 3 releases. Compare that to Forza which has been released, in that same time period, 2005-2013, 6 times. Gran Turismo is always a special thing when it comes around because nobody expects it, while people know that MS will continue to milk Forza every year. Heck, look at the graphics between GT6 and Forza 5. GT6 is much better looking, and it is a Ps3 game compared to a Next Gen Console. I can agree with you on PGR5 being expected and not Forza 5, but we all knew that Forza 5 was eventually going to come sooner or later, and looks like it came sooner.
