The PlayStation E3 Press Conference Thread | Persona 5, And Other Things Too

@dakur: What game is that? I have been playing since ghost and goblins and never heard of that. Must be an import.

why did they turn gow into ryse?

I wish Sony didn't end with Days Gone. That game looks really generic.

Because of the success of Last of Us and Uncharted.

E3 really brings out the best in people.

it really looks like Ryse. Which is bad.

Man the new God Of War game is different in a strange way. Since when is GOW a emotional game? And plus the gameplay is way too different from its original counterparts. I like change but not this much. They should of just had a Norse setting with a new character and story but with the familiar gameplay of GOW instead of being Horizon Zero Dawn or The Last Of Us.

What's up with Rise of The God of War ?

They turned God of War into Daddy problems of War. Kratos biggest challenge now is babbysitting that annoying brat and hope the kid doesn't open Pandora's box or release the pet Kraken and crap.

Am so sad from what I saw. The combat was slow and ass. At least in Ryse you had a shield. This was simply shat

Sony having a mediocore E3 showing doesn't make Sony any worse of a company, or the PS4 any worse of a console to play on. I think some of the people here think that way though.

That being said... I was more impressed with what MS showed this year. Opinions are opinions, but it is really hard for me to see how anyone could think that Sony won E3 this year.

I feel the same. But you must give them credit for a very focus showing. This was the most game centric Sony conference I have ever seen and that is commendable.

God of War looked amazing, easily the best game of the show. I don't know why you guys are complaining, I bet you are gonna get it the moment it releases. :D

What was amazing about the gameplay?

Besides graphics, what exactly did GoW have? And then there's the inevitable 30fps action game thing...

The show was really cool, I liked what I saw. The future looks bright with upcoming exclusives.

lol @ lemmings in this thread trying to downplay it.

Ryse was open world?

After owning the PS4 for 2 and half years.... Looks like I will finally have more then 2 games for it and a reason to turn it on. Zero Dawn is for sure an instant buy. Like the new GOW. MS still hasn't given me a single reason to buy their console. Meh, pretty sad how gaming has slowed down over the years. Went from buying 1 or more games a month... To only 3-4 a year and only on PC.

Was God of War?

I rest my case. You have been beaten.

I am talking about this one we saw, in the end scene it does look like open worldish and it seems that you "discover locations". I mean I could be wrong, willing to make a bet? :P

Then it is safe to assume you gave MS a 2.5/10 for showing a plethora of multiplats and announce new hardware without showing anything :)

Not willing to make a bet, because I'm Christian.

My condolences, didn't know :(

Parish Games Week. Keep up.

@freedomfreak: Why do you have such bad opinions bro? >.> no wonder Italy beat you :P

I liked Sony's showing the best of the bunch.

Horizon looks really good, the new ip did get gameplay shown (though weird it was the closer, but the trailer was played so early in the showing, that bemused me), I get the reason for The Last Guardian not showing gameplay, plus I've at least seen gameplay of that game last year and that game has a release date this year. God of War 4 makes me wonder why the game is even God of War since the only thing God of War about it is Kratos and the title, would have been cool if they went all the way with it and just made the game it's own thing, but at the least it won't be a samey sequel. Plus more fucking importantly, their initial reveal of that game has fucking gameplay.

Spiderman I didn't care for (beyond my general lack of care for Spiderman), because it was snippets of what could be gameplay and not an actual demonstration of the game. The rest of the conference I mostly liked, because they just kept going and going. Some of the VR stuff I get is hard to demo, but announcing teasers for Rocksteady projects or whatever is a bit much. Again show me a damn game. Ditto Kojima's shit which was just one giant, look, we saved Hideo, give us a cheap pop. For a trailer, that's not even remotely close to a video game.

Could have been a lot better, but I came away wanting to play some of Sony's stuff (Horizon and The Last Guardian). I can't say the same about Microsoft, because that only applies to Scalebound, and it wasn't for the footage I saw of Scalebound. I also like the pace of their show, I could do without some of the dog n pony show, but it is what it is.

One thing I'd like more, is that I remember after E3 07, Microsoft was trying to pimp out these early E3 demos, I kind of wish that blew up into a bigger thing. It be nice if some of these demos were downloadable for the general audience for some of these games. I get the big games not taking a chance, but some of these smaller teams could totally take a gamble. So in that regard I guess I'm glad Halo Wars 2 and Resident Evil 7 have a demo the audience can play. It's more or less their get out of showing me gameplay free card.

All in all, meh.

@Pedro: They didn't show much gameplay, but even what they showed was quite promising. The change of the perspective, the boss fight, the combat in general looked quite fun. Also I suppose the gameplay in general would be revamped and there will be more exploration and puzzles. I love God of War but that series kinda got old fast and that's exactly what it needed.

The people complaining about the new direction of God of War must have wanted another tired rehash like Gears 4.

People are complaining about the new God of War? lmao

Then again, I guess it makes sense, this is the industry where people line up to buy Call of Duty, EA Sports, and Assassin's Creed for $60 each every year, so of course they're pissed that something was actually changed for its, what, seventh installment now? After six identically playing and structured installments at that.

@Desmonic: I'm sporting Italy, bruh

It is interesting that the gamers who complain CoD, AC etc is always the same are also probably the ones that are now complaining that GoW is going different, I guess gamers quite often are self entitled.

Lemmings are upset because Santa Monica knows how to rejuvenate the franchise while their precious Gears 4 was probably the most stale and boring looking game at E3 so far.

@charizard1605: @_Matt_: I don't buy CoD or Assassin's Creed. I've never even bought a God of War game. What turned me off was how generic and shit the "combat" looked. Also the melodrama was cringe worthy. So no, not everyone who is complaining about this game wants yearly rehashes. Just because a game in a series switches it up, doesn't automatically mean it's good.

@freedomfreak: God you're awful lol

These so called "gamers" will always complain no matter what you do lol.

Ohhh, gotcha. Yeah, that isn't racist. Shortening the word could probably be seen as such (nip -- directly referring to a Japanese person), but not Nippon.

Even then, i'd just say it's xenophobic, and not actually racist.

Sidenote: I would have bet a million dollars Rockstar would have been at Sony's conference since they said they would be there, I wonder what and when they'll show off what they have.

Hilarious isn't it. Knowing damn well they were ready to rip the game had it stayed the same

IDK where to even start with this..

How the hell do you praise GOW "new direction" which looks like uncharted, tomb raider, or anything cinematic this day and age(therefore not being anything new), but call out COD, Ass Creed, etc for also doing what everybody else this gen is doing?

After Kratos kills the Nord gods he'll go and kill the Christian one and its minions due to the Christianization that will go on in Scandinavia. His son will be killed by priests or some angel or crazy shit like that.

Making God of War like a generic off the shoulder third person game is not a good change. Bundling the people who are calling out the the game to COD, EA Sports and Assassin Creed players is equally stupid. What relation does this game has to any of those games? Seriously. What the hell are you talking about?

You haven;t played the game at all and have barely seen anything of it. So how can you make such radical conclusions? LOL

The new GOW didn't impress me all that much and no I don't care for Ass Creed, COD, and EA.

But at least it showed gameplay but the combat looks worse then the previous games.

Here's day 1 of the E3 2016 live cast
