Forums - Sony - Why Didn't Sony Win E3 Hands down?

To me its because there 3 big announcements were for people who have played the game, played to 2 games before it, or allowed themselves to be pulled along for 5+ years

I guess the E3 hype is over and people are starting to see reality.

Get over it man. Most people agree that Sony had the more impressive show. Your constant whining on the subject isn't going to change people's opinions. 


By most you mean most people on vgcharts?  Also who is whining? I will play whats coming to Xbox One and whats coming to PS4 so I am covered either way.

Most people everywhere? It's not exactly difficult to figure out the general consensus. Just take a look at the GAF poll.

So GAF means everywhere? Reminds of when people said the internet was broken because GAF went down.

It's the largest gaming-related forum on the internet. Seems like the best place to draw a general consensus. You show me a poll from a gaming site that large that thinks Microsoft had the best conference.

All that shows is what GAF thinks and belive it or not less then 1% of gamers visit GAF. E3 is over and the hype is over with it. Just give it a couple more months because you aint seen nothing yet.

- The Last Guardian.....a niche game that has been in development for years
- Final Fantasy 7.....a remake of a PS1 game
- Shenmue 3.....an announcement of a kickstarter campaign
- Dreams.....a demo that honestly didn't make much sense/seem like a game
- Uncharted 4........we already know about this game



OR:

- The Last Guardian.....a game that everyone said was cancelled and made fun of fans for waiting for it in vain. People said that if they were to announce TLG, they'd win E3. Suddenly they do and it's .... niche so it somehow doesn't count. Interesting


- Final Fantasy 7..... The most requested remake of all time, and perhaps the most requested GAME of all time. The insane sales of FF7 on psn show how much demand there still is for this game. Also, youtube comments. This was a gigaton no matter how much people want to downplay it. Not even SE expected it to ever be made.


- Shenmue 3..... An announcement of the game being made, which will start as a kickstarter and continue with the suppor of Sony and Sega. Hardly, a kickstarter. I don't see how people keep using that word as if it means it will be made on a 2m budget and ignore Sony's deal with them.


- Dreams.....A MM new IP. A studio that has proven itself with each game they've made. Looked great and personally can't wait to hear more about it.


- Uncharted 4........We knew about Halo 5, we knew about Tomb Raider. So what? It's not like they showed a trailer we had already seen. The trailer was excellent and showcased the game perfectly. What are they suppose to do? Never show a trailer of it just because it was already announced? For all we know it the game could have been worse, but the trailer makes it look promising.



There is no poll on the best of e3 that agrees with or even suggests your observations.

The majority and their pet fish all seem to agree that Sony won e3. There will always be that vocal minority though

I'm still waiting for you to show me a consensus of Microsoft winning E3. Since you clearly believe that the vast majority of gamers preferred Microsoft's conference then it shouldn't be difficult for you to prove it right?

I never said what the vast majority of gamers think because how would I know? One thing I will say about E3 is that it has shown me that people will indeed eat anything if they are hungry enough.
