Sony didn't really announce or show off anything unexpected besides 8gb GDDR5...


yeah of course they just showed 8gb GDDR5 for like 2 hours and 4 mins.......Ridiculous comment


Read my post. I didn't say that they didn't announce anything besides the RAM. I said that was the only unexpected announcement. Everything else was pretty much par for the course.


So you expected Bungie to show exclusive content, blizzard to turn up , The witness, drive club etc etc?

I expected them to push the cloud and social gaming, I expected them to show tech demos of new engines, I expected them to show off indie games, I expected them to show off third party multigenerational titles, I expected those multigenerational titles to be better on the PS4, I expected them to show off a racing game(it'd been rumoured before), I expected at least one new Sony IP, and  expected them to have several developers worshiping their machine. They delivered on all of that, which is in no way a bad thing, but there were no "OMG" moments for me. I guess Diablo 3 was kind of a surprise, though. I kinda forgot about that one. Oh, and SE's portion came as quite a shock as well. ;)

oh snap!

They made a developer friendly console and they got rid of my fears of possibly going the direction that the other two companies did last generation and shove some control scheme down my throat that doesn't exactly improve the gameplay - but pretends it does.

When haters that aren't going to buy the system's biggest complaint is that they didn't show a black box with the PS4 logo on it, they did something right.

The main emphasis is still on games (and showed non FPS games too), and not multimedia features.  Yeah, Sony is still on good terms with me.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials 

 

Conservatives:  Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.

I'm sure they'll redeem themselves at E3 with a CG trailer for the next FF and a promised exclusive multiiplat release date of 2013 2014 2015 TBA.

Ah, pity. Well, maybe next E3.

Back on topic: :P

I don't think M$ has much to worry about. Well, I hope they don't, because if they weren't expecting Sony to bring their A game then they don't deserve to be in this race.
