I missed Ubisoft and Bethesda's press conferences, as well as the one for PC gaming in general. So far, I think the main things that I'm interested in are Beyond Good and Evil 2 (though from the looks of it, they only showed concept art), Wolfenstein (hope the new game has the same sort of run-and-gun gameplay as Doom (2016)), and Spider-Man (not enough to sell me on a PS4, but I'm glad to see more developers making Arkham-style superhero games).

Nothing from Microsoft really grabbed me - the Sea of Thieves trailer had solid narration, but the gameplay looked like all of the fun of sailing in Wind Waker, with none of the story to move things along.

Won't be able to watch Nintendo's conference live due to work, but hopefully there's something exciting.

Kind of a weak Sony E3 IMO. But hey, at least three good things for me.

Doctor Strange reconfirmed for Infinite, god damn Spider-Man, and a new N. Sane Trilogy trailer.

And Detroit's pretty neat too, but that's not new.

Edit: Oh and console Undertale.

Well that was pretty all right. Solid B.
Came in, showed some games, and then left. All they needed to do and I don't mind that.

Now to see Nintendo.
Who have an entire day to themselves in terms of presentations.
Oh dear God.

Standalone SOTC trailer. Other than Spiderman, this was the game I'm most attached to from the Sony presser.

2017, the year where I can say that I enjoyed Ubisoft's E3 conference more than Sony's.
I hate to admit it, but I agree with that.

This was very disappointing, considering Sony usually knocks it out of the park.

Spider-Man looks great (at least it ended on a high note) and Dad of War seems interesting, but nothing else really stuck out. A lot of the games really blended in with one another.

If I were to rank the ones I've seen so far.

Sony<Ubisoft<Microsoft.

Hold the **** up.

Now hold the **** up.

Did Sony reveal more new games in the Pre-Show then their actual press conference?

That was... a really bad conference
I can't believe we live in a world where Ubisoft had the best presentation, because I don't trust Nintendo enough to pull a good one, especially when their trump card was announced before E3(!!!)

The Spider-Man trailer looked solid, but the conference overall was okay at best.

And I saw Zero and Grandmaster Meio in that MvCI trailer, Capcom! ...They're going to be DLC, aren't they?

Have you seen this game?

If so, please contact Square Enix as soon as possible
What's actually happening is that Nomura's running around naked in the SE building throwing zippers and belts at everything

Grandmaster Meios and Rathalos? I think I saw Rathalos in that trailer

Of all the E3 press conferences I've seen, that was certainly one of them.
You don't say...

----

Ok so I missed the first bit of the sony conference...but some thoughts on what I saw...

God of War still looking epic....Frikking Jormungandr shows up and is like "PLEH!!....this your's?"

Shadow of the Colossus, reminding me that I really should play the game at some point...because **** me that looks amazing...

Moss looked like a glorified escourt mission....

Spiderman game looked pretty decent...

Nothing really caught me as much as Microsoft's conference however...Haven't seen Ubisoft's conference due to work but Mario+Rabbids and Beyond Good and Evil 2 were more exciting pieces of news than what I saw for Sony...Still leagues better than Bethesda...

Nintendo really has the opportunity to really flatten the competition this year however...which now makes me think they'll drop the ball but we'll see...

I missed the Strider character, not sure about Rathalos since he'd have to be a giant character and afaik we don't got one for Marvel.

Maybe I just didn't notice, but I didn't see Ant-Man in the trailer.

On one hand, I'm hoping he's still in the game. On the other hand, maybe he was there the whole time, but was really tiny. :p

I liked Sony's conference a lot more.
At least it didn't spring up a crossover including one of my most hated characters in gaming.
Or spit in my mouth with a prequel that's trying too hard to be cool after 10-ish years of waiting for a cliffhanger to be resolved.
Showed a lot of games.
Has something out NOW to test with.
Closed strong.
And made VR almost look apetizing.
Solid 6/10.

Microsoft a 4
Bethesda a 2.
Ubisoft a 2.
Devolver a Meme/10.
EA a solid like 3 for battlefront 2 alone.

I heard American Kaiju and Fin Fang Foom, but we need ****ing Leopardon if Marvel's getting a giant character
Actually, now that you mention it.

Rathalos and Foom could be DLC, this would leave the Strider character out though.

The reason I say this because I'm 99% sure the pack is gonna be 3 Marvel/3 Capcom characters, and they would fit the two spaces perfectly. That said, I wouldn't hold my breath on it.

I see the general consensus is that Ubisoft is somehow on top this year. Wacky.

Sony nearly put me to sleep, a bunch of uninteresting stuff and then Spiderman quick time events.

Bethesda just keeps milking Skyrim dry, but at least MS had Ori 2.


Good guy Ubisoft coming in with BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL 2 tho.


Nintendo has to reveal Smash just to equal Ubisoft at this point for me.

My only complaint you mentioned is ignoring my Leopardon suggestion

Oh, and Nintendo's basically guaranteed to show Kirby and Xenoblade 2. That alone is better than this conference

So I thought Sony's was decent. Nothing entirely new, but there are games I do want, so I say it was decent for me. Definitely going to get Shadow of the Colossus. Very interested in the new Monster Hunter. Also, Spiderman and MvCI looked nice. Either way, there are games I want, so I say Sony did alright for me.
