I don't think so, seriously this was the conference of a lifetime!

Horizon alone is beyond legendary and it's coming next year.
For me at least that was the only real thing to blow the Fallout 4 reveal out of the water and I'm in an emotional state after Shenmue 3, the Final Fantasy 7: Remake and The Last Guardian all got announced as well.

That Horizon though, I mean given who's involved in making it, the team that Guerrilla Games has built to make it a reality are among the best guys in the field of making enormous open world western RPGs.
Dreams, that Uncharted 4 gameplay, my god this was the best E3 since 2009, may even have topped that one too!

Even if Nintendo announces a proper open world Pokemon game, a new mainline 3D Mario, F-Zero and a stunning new Metroid title they'd still not be close.
I hope Nintendo does all of the above, along with announcing some amazing new IPs, but Sony just showed they're beyond serious about this generation!

But did Sony really? Almost everything they showed were multiplats or indies. Its not like the entire lineup was exclusive to ps4. Even FF7 and Shenmue are on multiple devices. All the Sony E3 conference did was be the place where the games were announced, and that's it.

No, just no!

You're ignoring Horizon: Zero Dawn, you're ignoring The Last Guardian, you're ignoring Dreams, you're even ignoring Rigs, all of which had real PS4 gameplay and all of those titles are new, AAA IPs, made by Sony 1st party studios.

 

Horizon alone is utterly phenomenal, Guerrilla Games basically hired the best people in the world at making enormously huge and densely packed open world games, seriously John Gonzalez is the Lead Narrative Designer/Writer and he worked on Fallout: New Vegas, Shadow of Mordor and Tom Clancy's End War.

Then there's a bunch of staff from CD Projekt Red also working on the game's systems, quest stuff, it's been in development since early 2009 when Killzone 2 shipped.

 

Shenmue 3 is a console exclusive on PS4 (yes it's also on PC, but it's not on any other console) and FF7: Remake is coming to PS4 first. People though neither of these things would ever happen, same thing with The Last Guardian, but they're all happen, they were all confirmed to be coming to PS4 at Sony's conference.

Then there's that new Uncharted 4 gameplay, I mean it topped the E3 2014 reveal it was that stunning.

 

Horizon was unquestionably a contender for game of the show, if not game of the generation.

Multiplats and indies took up way less space in the conference than you're saying, this was a phenomenal conference, the best since 2009 and I stand by my opinion!


Batman, FF7, No mans sky, Destiny, CoD, Shenmue 3, etc. etc. Almost every big game that was announced was a multiplat. Even SF5 is a multiplat. See thing is that in the end, you could count on one hand how many actual exclusive megatons were there on the Sony conference. UC4, Horizon, TLG, and even then we knew about the other games for years. The only surprise of the whole thing was Horizon. You can't even count Shenmue either. Its a kickstarter and not even guaranteed.
