I’d say SoP was an easy A (9/10), though my hype has settled back down. I got very overwhelmed seeing a list of like ten major announcements lol— in retrospect, it was a *very* solid partner showcase. Not so much a Sony showcase, however. Only thing first party we got was more info on Saros, Marathon, and Tokon, and reveals for GoY DLC, GoW Trilogy Remake (that is early in development), and 2D GoW.
Again, super solid presentation, no doubt! But I can definitely see where people are let down… to an extent.
Nintendo Partner Showcase was a solid 7/10. We got lots of news and info on upcoming third-party software (finally!) dropping on Switch 2, though nothing new (this being a Nintendo Partner Showcase, however, that’s kinda to be expected…). Nintendo would save a heavy-hitter third-party likely for a Nintendo Direct (e.g. like what they did with Silksong in the 4-2 presentation).
