To be fair on Saints Row IV, THQ went bankrupt in the making of it, so it was moved over to Deep Silver.

[Ryan57]

Sony's conference is on June 9th at 2am our time.

Microsoft's is on June 9th also at 5:30pm our time.

[Tom4784]

I'm really looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to the (likely) MK10 reveal.

[Smithy]

Saints Row V :amazed:

[Tregard]

Nintendo will be showing off their take on Skylanders, should be interesting.

[Scarlett.]

Saints Row V :amazed:

Remember thats only on the maybe list, lol.

[Tom4784]

Kingdom Hearts 3 is another one I'm looking forward to, I'm interested in seeing what new worlds they'll pick. I'm guessing Frozen is a given but it'll be interesting to see if Disney allows Square to use any Marvel or Star Wars properties.

[Ramsay]

Keyblade Lightsaber :amazed:

[Tregard]

Star Wars x Frozen is the one thing I never realised I wanted until now

Elsa and Luke Skywalker fighting the Heartless side by side does sound fantastic.

I don't know what to believe at the moment!

Jeff Gerstmann and other folks who were at journalist week are saying there isn't too much to be excited for, yet Sony are going to be showing their conference live in US cinemas. Why would they do that if they had a lackluster show?

Microsoft is claiming they have a lot of stuff to show, and Nintendo are definitely showing Zelda, as well as claiming they will be showing a lot of games, including those "not far into development" (The next mainline 3D Mario?)

I really want this to be a brilliant year :worry:

[Tom4784]

It's looking like the next Mortal Kombat will be announced tomorrow and then showcased at E3.

Thanks. GAF members saying that journalists don't get to see the surprises. I sincerely hope that's correct.

Thanks. GAF members saying that journalists don't get to see the surprises. I sincerely hope that's correct.

They'll have only seen some of the playable stuff, and they wont have seen any of Microsoft or Sony's "massive surprises" I would've thought, just so those have no chance of being leaked. I doubt they'll have seen any of Nintendo's stuff either, so I'm hoping we've still got some good shows coming up.

I've got a feeling we'll be seeing Left 4 Dead 3, I'm very hopeful!

[Scarlett.]

Journalists wont see the big reveals until the big day, thats like the whole idea of a press conference, lol.

Apparently it's a very colourful cover, so it could be Uncharted, or perhaps some platformer?

So what's everyone's predictions for the surprises?

RE7 will be one I think, I think Square might be prepping for something big as well since KH3 and FFXV aren't going to be there. I think we might get word of the next Street Fighter or maybe even Darkstalkers.

I did hear rumours of FFXII HD, I think XIV is going to be their main FF focus this year though, and that Kingdom Hearts II.5 thing. I do hope we hear of the new Deus Ex/Tomb Raider, I cant wait to see how Uncharted 4 looks.

[Scarlett.]

"Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris" and "Rise of the Tomb Raider" domain names have been registered, its likely the Lara Croft game will be a sequel to the isometric Guardian of Light and the Tomb Raider game will be a sequel to, well Tomb Raider.

EA to show a CGI trailer of FIFA 15, like they did with 14. Spout crap about Ignite like it is some special new engine.

I'm expecting:

EA to have ruined Mirrors Edge reboot
Ubisoft to tease Beyond Good and Evil 2 and it to not show up again for 5 years
Microsoft to force me to buy an Xbox One by showing Banjo Threeie
Nintendo to show HD remakes of many GameCube titles
Sony will spend too much time on Project Morpheus, and we'll see Agent and Last Guardian

IGN are making utter twats of themselves after they published "The Last Guardian officially cancelled", Sony quickly denied it, now IGN is trying to shift blame on Sony? Perhaps they should stop printing rumours as fact, and remember that they are journalists.

I wish there was more conferences, I kinda miss companies like Square and Konami having their own events.

[Tom4784]

I reckon The Last Guardian is most likely cancelled or has been put on indefinite hold, there hasn't even been a single screenshot or concept art of it released in years.

Them and EA are such lazy so and so's. And both are such liars.

Geoff Keighley saying TLG is in full development. Don't see why they'd cancel it as, even though we've heard nothing for years it's still the one game the majority of PS4 owners want.

Someone on GAF says there's a Destiny demo during Sony's conference lasting half an hour. Please tell me this is BS.

Edit: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2014/06/09/the-last-guardian-an-apology

Mistakes happen. He had to go with the story as if it had been true he'd of been held in high regard forever more.

Can't see Sony dedicating so much of the conference to a multiplatform game coming out in a month or two :p

COD have basically just taken every other shooter and put them all together to create this.. it no longer looks like COD at all

[Tom4784]

CoD looks midly interesting, still not too bothered about it though.

In for CoD and rise of the tomb raider

[Tom4784]

Hyped for Tomb Raider but I wasn't too taken with the rest of Microsoft's conference. Pretty much no surprises whatsoever.

I couldnt get a decent stream so im just reading and watching vids

When is sony??

Sony's conference is at 2PM. Try Gamespot, IGN or Twitch for streams.

Don't think I'll get it anytime soon as my desktop messed up and my laptop couldn't possibly get any slower, I think it'd blow up.

I'll give Microsoft credit, they're already trying this year to sway my opinion, Mass Effect and Tomb Raider :love:

[Black Dagger]

Oh wait, was Mass Effect 3 multi-platform? :suspect:

[Ramsay]

Doubt the new Tomb Raider is exclusive :laugh:
All the Mass Effects are multi. Ps3 were a bit late to the party but yeah they eventually got them all lol

[Black Dagger]

Oh I just assumed it was exclusive, hopefully it isn't :laugh:

Oh and FIFA can bore me, same game every year. Same with the WWE games, I long for them doing an updated HCTP.

The corner flags move this year with Fifa, incredible.. Well worth spending another £50 on.

Not yet, I'm guessing they're going to be on show at Sony, since Sony seem to be the RPG sort of console. I am willing to bet MGS will be the intro to the conference too.

[Scarlett.]

Less than an hour to Sony!

Unless they're fashionably late like usual.

[Tom4784]

I don't think we'll be getting any big surprises but I do hope that we see a bit of MKX.

What more do these people want? lol.

I think I'm a little disappointed with the conferences this year, Tomb Raider looks great as does MKX but nothing else really wowed me. I think I was expecting more surprises.

But after Nintendo's Press Conference, I REALLLY Need a Wii U

Also Mario Party 10 has finally been confirmed. That really needs online multiplayer.

[Kyle]

A lot of things caught my eye on that Nintendo direct but the one that had me most excited funnily enough was that amiibo. Just watched a seperate video on nintendo youtube channel that tells you more about it and by using them in smash bros you can enhance their stats and everything. The link figure especially looks amazing.

Never fancied skylanders or that other one but this nintendo Amiibo looks the real deal for me. Would love to know what it has to do with Mario kart 8 though.

Really enjoyed that presentation.

Urgh people are so annoying with this whole 'RIP XBOX/NINTENDO/SONY'

Fanboys everywhere, I think all 3 showed signs of great potential for this gen, all 3 have got games that I want to buy and play, it's just deciding what my first console will be (when I get a job ofc) but I think PS4 is for me rn.

[Tom4784]

I didn't think anyone's conferences this year were that great.

[Black Dagger]

Yeah they weren't spectacular, but they all at least showed something that I was interested in!

[Tregard]

Nintendo's conference was by far the most interesting of the three, all had a few things of interest but neither Sony or Microsoft showed enough for me to buy a console.

My favourite new IP of the bunch was Splatoon, but it didn't have a lot of competition tbh. The conferences were very fast paced, but strangely didn't seem to be showing much. All sort of proof-of-concept, teaser trailer stuff. Also a LOT more remakes than I'd have liked (I find it funny that Sony's big PS4 titles this year are Last of Us and GTAV, last year's big PS3 titles).

Hoping we hear some more interesting stuff over the next few days, and maybe Gamescom will have some better titles to show off.

[Scarlett.]

I liked the announcements of Uncharted 4, Ratchet & Clank reboot, Final Fantasy Type-0 and Rise of the Tomb Raider.

I wanted to see big showings of Mass Effect 4 and Final Fantasy XV though, lol.

To be honest, exclusives are a dying breed, which isnt a bad thing at all.

Uncharted 4, Ratchet & Clank (reboot), Bloodborne and No Man's Sky? Not to mention Last of Us Remastered. Also note, 90% of PS4 games shown are coming in 2014/2015, and aren't just concepts of what might come out in 2016/17.

Also, I care for stuff like Youtube and Playstation Go, even Playstation TV, stuff like that is mentioned for people who have the console.

I don't even get why Nintendo earn so much praise, when they're just showing more 2D platformers and Mario games. Zelda looked good though.

Nintendo showed a hell of a lot more than than, even if you exclude the 2D platformers (Yoshi's Wooly World, Mario Maker), they showed:

-Bayonetta 2 (w. Bayonetta 1)
-Hyrule Warriors
-Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
-Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
-Splatoon
-Mario Party 10
-Xenoblade Chronicles X

Plus updates on Smash Brothers and Miyamoto's new projects.

Frankly it was a little embarassing how much new stuff Nintendo had to show off with actual gameplay in comparison to Sony and Microsoft's Teaserthons.

I am looking forward to Grim Fandango though.

[Scarlett.]

Nintendo showed a hell of a lot more than than, even if you exclude the 2D platformers (Yoshi's Wooly World, Mario Maker), they showed:

-Devil's Third
-Bayonetta 2 (w. Bayonetta 1)
-Hyrule Warriors
-Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
-Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
-Splatoon
-Mario Party 10
-Xenoblade Chronicles X

Plus updates on Smash Brothers and Miyamoto's new projects.

Nintendo are a year ahead, I guess, anywho, my aim wasn't to attack Nintendo, I was just pointing out that Nintendo always seems to get a free pass, they can release similar Pokemon games every year and people just eat it up, CoD dares do the same and gets nothing but **** for it. I do say all this as an actual owner of the Wii U, remember. :joker: Microsoft and Sony have all the multiplatform games too, which are some of the ones I am most looking forward to (Tomb Raider! Final Fantasy Type-0!)

At the end of the day though, Nintendo fans love that stuff, just like Microsoft and Sony fans like their stuff. Pretty much all the conferences were equal IMO.

[Scarlett.]

Oh yeah, regarding Zelda...


It was hinted that the character in the trailer....WASNT LINK O_O

Uncharted 4, Ratchet & Clank (reboot), Bloodborne and No Man's Sky? Not to mention Last of Us Remastered. Also note, 90% of PS4 games shown are coming in 2014/2015, and aren't just concepts of what might come out in 2016/17.

Also, I care for stuff like Youtube and Playstation Go, even Playstation TV, stuff like that is mentioned for people who have the console.

I don't even get why Nintendo earn so much praise, when they're just showing more 2D platformers and Mario games. Zelda looked good though.

Uncharted 4 showed nothing special. Just a teaser.
Ratchet and Clank is just a remake.
Bloodborne, not personally fussed for it.
No Man's Sky, skipped the presentation of that as I got bored of it. Just another Indie game in which most of Sony's launch was built on.
Last of Us remastered, remaster. Nothing to write home about there.

Youtube was mentioned. Crowd cheers despite not knowing what the plan was. Which sums up how many Sony fanboys must of been there. Cheering over the mention of the word 'Youtube'... srs?

PlayStation Go, nothing new there. We knew about that. They've not mentioned any details of how much games will cost.
PlayStation TV, not fussed. Can see how some will be though. Although we'll get raped on the conversion as always.

Personally more interested in Nintendo's offering. Sony's presentation was so long winded, in which we had the life story of the head of SCEA who couldn't keep his hands still. The fat blonde guy, Boyes something was on stage too long spouting dull crap.

Again, pathetic pot shots at MS. That got old a long time ago. Wasn't really funny at the time, tbh. Especially seeing as though they were in MS' position the generation prior due to pathetic arrogance.

Definite Sony bias within the gaming press. CVG's analysis the presenter said something along the lines of, 'Microsoft's conference was decent but everything Sony showed made you go 'WOW''

Really?

Remaster of a PS3 game. Amazing, big wow.
Entwined which looked dull as dishwater. WOW!
LBP 3 in which the players were cringe worthy.
A mere mention of PS Morpheus is a WOW?! Really?
Disney Infinity? Wow? Really?
Powers? WOW! A dull guy on stage after the long bloody talk shows a bit of concept art.
Wowed by GTA 5 announcement? Despite the fact it's multi-platform
Wowed by Batman Arkham Knight gameplay, granted it looked amazing, yet that is multi platform.

And those letters... deary me. If this was MS' conference there'd be constant piss takes of the letters, audio glitches and Boyes on stage talking crap.

Now I respect opinion, some will of found Sony's conference to be good. However, for the moron at CVG to say he was wowed by everything Sony showed... fanboy at the highest level.

[Scarlett.]

Why so angry? lol

[Ryan57]

Yes, I'm angry over a Sony press conference. So angry, I've been unable to sleep. Infact, I'm gonna go smash some plates and glasses to try and curb the anger that is running through my body at this moment in time.

Simply making valid points. The MS fanboys are right, there's a clear bias in the gaming press towards Sony.

[Scarlett.]

Who cares? It's just a bunch of conferences? Not even the full line up of games for either console was shown (stuff like Doom 4 and FF Type-0 for example), People make waaaaaaaaay too big of a deal about these conferences. Also, who really gives a damn about the gaming press? Gaming journalism isn't even worth paying attention to, I don't even trust them for reviews.

[Ryan57]

It's not just the gaming press. NeoGAF was masturbating furiously over Sony's conference.

Twitter as well. It's staggering how many Sony fanboys are around. Totally forgetting about last gen, whilst heavily criticising MS for this generation.

Lot's of 'Sony nailed it'... lol. Even Greg Miller, the guy who epitomises Sony fanboy, wasn't all that impressed.

The best one is harping on about how the PS4 is more powerful than the One. Yet both are old technology really.

**** Sony fans for enjoying a conference, right? How dare they enjoy what Sony had to show.

Also, from what I saw of Neogaf there were people who loved it or hated it. But still, its just a conference to show of the upcoming line up to.... investors, because thats actually why E3 came about in the first place. Gamers love E3 for the craziness it brings, and for the announcements, fan boys of each console just turn it into a war. All three consoles had a fair range of decent games.

[Ryan57]

I understand that some people liked it. It's the whole making it out as though it was fantastic. As though Uncharted 4 looked like the best thing since sliced bread despite the fact barely anything was shown of it. And the fact the game will probably not end up looking like that when it's running.

For a company of that stature the conference was very very poorly put together in my eyes. It could of done with a lot of editing. Would of been better to have some interesting things to talk about rather than what felt like padding the conference out.

You have to wonder also about when we'll get to see some of the stuff shown. Such as PS Now. We're usually treated like crap despite paying the most.

[Ryan57]

That said, EA and Ubisoft's showings were worse. Which is no surprise whatsoever.

Yeah, but keep in mind, Uncharted 3 looked like this on PS3

So it's gonna look even better on PS4, people underestimate Naughty Dog.

I enjoyed the majority of the conference, except from that bit with the comic book guy, talking about a show that was still in pre-production, lol. The letters thing, while cheesy was cool, because it came with trailers for a whole bunch of games. At the end of the day, fanboys are always going to make out that their thing is better than your thing, so its easier to just ignore them. It's like /r/gaming on reddit, PC gamers **** on everyone elses opinion over there, yeah, they may have better machines and ****, but they're still assholes, and its much easier to just block them out, lol.

Sony definately wasnt as energetic this year without Jack Tretton on stage.

[Ryan57]

Uncharted has differed from the trailers shown at E3 before. Hope it does look like that. Naughty Dog are an amazing studio so if anybody can match what was shown the other day, it is them. And even if they don't, it'll no doubt still be an amazing game.

PC gamers are definitely the worst. Despite the fact they often port beg for console only games. Personally prefer consoles' exclusive games.

The conference, looking back, felt as though some things were perhaps removed late on. Such as TLG. Perhaps saved for TGS. It's unusual to see the likes of Powers spoke about, to then only reveal some concept art. Stuff like that is usually mentioned for like 30 seconds. It felt like it was rushed in.
Lot's of talking about stuff that, really, that wasn't relevant also adds to the possibility game presentations were removed late on.

Not hugely impressed by Sony's 2014 line up if I'm honest. Although, the same goes for all the others. The best games look to be 2015, unfortunately.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Halo 5
The Witcher 3
Uncharted 4
Scalebound
Crackdown 3
Zelda
Splatoon

That's just off the top of my head. Roll on 2015. All three consoles will have some top notch titles.

[Scarlett.]

2015 does look to be really awesome, as long as there is no more delays, lol. I did notice some weird absences for Sony's conference too, stuff like Rime, Deep Down and The Witness were nowhere to be seen, and Square announcing Type-0 on stage would have been pretty awesome. Infact, that is generally what Sony was missing this time, JRPGs I kinda think these conferences at E3 might be reaching their end, especially with exclusives generally dying out (unless they're by MS/PS publishers), Nintendo does it best with the Nintendo Direct thingy.

Personally I can't wait for TGS, since we're finally gonna see some more of Final Fantasy XV, not to mention the expansion for A Realm Reborn. Sony's niche is JRPGs too, so I really hope to see some announced there too, hopefully something by Level-5 (Ni No Kuni, Dark Cloud). A strange absence was Persona 5, I expected that to be mentioned at some point, given its popularity.

[Ryan57]

Hoping to see TLG at TGS.

And yeah, I like Nintendo's way of doing things. Wouldn't mind Sony and MS going down a similar path. Hopefully making their presentation shorter like Nintendo have. Less talk, more games.

Although the Reggie vs Iwata was a bit cringe. :p

[Scarlett.]

Reggie is always a bit cringe, to be fair, but that's what makes him so loveable :p
