not sure what to make of this i suppose. the note about this falling on the same day as halo 5 is pretty relevant,.. obviously sony wants to steal their thunder and a price cut announcement would be good for that.

in the broader picture i like the move. having a conference in June and then another in August is pretty close to each other. much like games themselves,.. i like having announcements peppered throughout the year instead of all at once.

imagine this scenario,.. as a rule E3 announces games landing in the following Q4 and Q1 while this paris thing announces games landing in Q2 and Q3. no more waiting years for releases!! every announcement is 3 to 9 months away which is, imo, the perfect amount of pre-release self hyping time.
