Ok, but what about Gamescom? It still exists. And once again, next year is next year. I don't like waiting till holiday 2016 for games. E3 should be showing off games for this year, and Gamescom for next year. You can say whatever you please, but I'm not a corporation, I am a gamer. The practice is anti-consumer (but no, its good for Sony, and you should "suck it up"). 


@bolded: and Sony have brought game this year, and are bringing a lot more. Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Persona 5, Rime, Tomorrow Children, MLB, No Man's Sky (though it is timed), Tearaway, Until Dawn, The Order, Bloodborne, Uncharted Collection are all coming out this year or came out this year. thats without other third party multiplates, yes they are on other platforms but that does not dismiss the fact that they are on the PS4 as well. last time i checked, PS4 has more games coming out this year than any other console, so no, you dont have to wait till 2016.

 

what about gamescom? due to marketing reasons Sony made their confrence during Paris Game week. MS are going ahead with a gamescom confrence. so how about we about we wait and see both confrences before we even talk about them? 

 

again, these exclusive deals help sell console, which help devs continue their business which help devs make more games. personally i dont give two shits about timed DLC or an extra bland side mission in an open world game which has tones of missions and side quests. so me getting DLC early or late has never been something i cared for.

i understand it can be annoying to some, and i agree it has its stink of "anti-consumer". but it really isnt a big deal, and its expected when Sony are dominating hardware sales like they are now. but Sony is investing in all kinds of games, from all sorts of developers and for all sorts of audinces. indie, AAA, VR, indepedent, F2P, JRPG's and all sorts of games. and thats why people really dont care if Sony gets CoD DLC a month earlier, its just not a big deal when Sony as a publisher is still doing their best to put out games, take risks and grow as a publisher. 

Really, well the Paris Game week is at the end of October, while Gamescom is at early to mid August. Sony isn't bothering to show its 2015 lineup, as it isn't going ahead to Gamescom. Microsoft will be showing off a 2016 lineup at Gamescom, but we already know that, since they've finished off their 2015 lineup. And as for Sony's great lineup, explain why they didn't bother showing it off at the 2015 conference?
