i just got back from watching sony's conference at the theatre where everyone was clapping and cheering thoughout the show and left with massive grins on their faces. we saw awesome footage from third pary games like batman, destiny, farcry, mortal kombat, metal gear.  we saw amazing exclusives like little big planet 3, the order 1886, uncharted 4, blood born, entwined, suda's game, the infamous dlc.  some improved old games in grim fandago, ratchet and clank, the last of us.  a neat free show in powers.  a bunch of now doubt awesome games even if they are from small developers like no man's sky, nuclear, bro force, the one from the guys who made journey that are now called giant squid.  ...i'm going from memory here but someone else can probably fill is some of my gaps. 

now i didn't catch MS show but i know we got a new tomb raider, an exclusive from platinum, i believe 2-3 good looking indies, forza horizon, and the halo complete collection.  i'm sure i've got even bigger gaps here cause i only caught the headlines so far. 

point is this was a hell of a great day. i come back from the show expecting to see lots of excitement and what do i find,.. negativity almost exclusivly.  and why?,. because a game is multiplat? because the trailer was (possibly) gci.  because someone leaked the announcment to the internet and ruined your ability to be surprise?  because old awesome games aren't awsome when remade to be even awesomer? because you can't enjoy a game that has a lable of indie or free to play?

you guys are ridiculous

I am tired of people complaining about remasters of games. They make them because there is a market for them. Nobody forces anyone to buy it....

I watched Sony, Ubi, and the EA show and I thought all were good (Sony being the best) but I am a bit disappointed to be honest not as many great (Sony) games announced as I would have liked. With that said I am buying LBP3 Day 1! :)

I'm actually quite hyped and never expected to be, all for grim fandango.

This E3 was fantastic for both Sony and MS.

I don't see how someone could watch both conferences and not want both systems eventually. They both look like they are going to have an incredible line up of high quality software.

I'm sorry that your theatre misled you and that everyone doesn't think what Sony did was absolutely amazing.

Welcome to the console wars, where people take sides on which one is better and who had the "better" conference. Gamers are VERY picky as well, unfortunately.

Our theater was dead silent. No joke.

Did you guys have all the audio/video problems we had, too? It was hard to get edited when the lack of frame rate was giving everyone headaches. Then they all booed when they announced the giveaway. LOL 75% of the room doesn't have a PS4, so it's pointless except for $5 of PSN credit.

Agreed. I think it has to do more with unrealistic expectations. So many of the AAA franchises that exist in the industry today were getting love on stage at one or more of the conferences. Somehow, inexplicably, this is not enough.

don''t forget gamescom and tgs which sony typically has ~2 good announcements for as well.  an actual trailer for uncharted and announcing blood born and little big planet 3 is a typical e3 conference. entwined, rachet and clank remaster, infamous dlc makes for gravy imo. 

How did the public react to the 20 minutes of painful talking of the new CEO?
