Easily the best Ubisoft conference in a few years.
This E3 is still relatively unimpressive compared to every other E3 this console generation, not that there's anything that could be done about it. Here's to hoping Sony pulls the usual and kills it tonight.

IT LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL.
Same, it was the only like new thing that impressed me ha. Well that and Horizon DLC technically. Spiderman looks so good. As expected but yeah.
Why is every video game a movie now? Why was there literally no emphasis on fun gameplay mechanics AT ALL this conference? I'm extremely let down. Every single game was a cinematic 'Press X to Cool' simulator or another goddamn shooting game. The extreme emphasis on storytelling has got to end.
I'm at a point where I am extremely happy that I have other good things going on in my life, because if this was my sole hobby, I'd be really fucking bummed out.
The only trailer throughout this entire E3 that I liked was Rare's new Sea of Thieves game. Everything else has been a letdown.

Oh so you didn't see the Spider-Man trailer. I guess you also don't know that the week following the press conferences is when the press actually gets their hands on gameplay and gets more extended demos, which is then sent to us.
That was an amazing conference, so many great games. Easily the best of E3, I can't wait to get my hands on these games. Bravo, Sony.

To be fair, Launchpad has a point. Just because we saw some decent gameplay from certain games doesn't detract that there IS an issue with cinematic trailers/cinematic gameplay being the focus at presentations at times.
But at the same time, you also then have people who would rather see multiple trailers instead of a single game and a gameplay demonstration.

Sony's conference was pretty boring, honestly. And it went by really quick too.
Didn't Sony say there was gonna be a lot of weeb shit this time?

Actually, I did. It was shit. It was bland, trite, overly cinematic garbage for brainless consumers. A 1-1 ripoff of the Batman games, same shit, different label-- just keep tapping buttons to keep killing the guys with no thought whatsoever. The game slows down to tell you what button to press to make a cool thing happen. It's completely idiotic and so are you for what you wrote.
I can't believe the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra was actually the best conference during this year's E3.
I think a lot of people felt it was redundant because we were seeing the same gameplay at conferences that we were seeing throughout the week, and with E3 now open to the public that means more hands are going to actually be on the games. I think the conferences are becoming big press releases for all of the games shown, and they're using the public and the press to let out more hands on opinions and extended demos on sites like Twitch and Youtube throughout the following weeks. I think it's a longer game they're playing with marketing.
I mean, I do get your point though, that we're not seeing more hands on games directly at the conferences, highlighting exactly what it is that makes these games special and differentiate from one another.
So what is the point of Insomniac making a Spiderman game if they're just making a one-to-one clone of Beenox's Amazing SM games?

because they aren't clones, Insomniac's Spider-Man is obviously building its own universe and has much more polish to it. it has environmental interactions, and traversal more in vein to other Insomniac titles like Sunset Overdrive as seen with the wall running. literally everything that can be done with Spiderman has been done in earlier titles, I'm happy that the developer is perfecting what works and scrapping what doesn't, rather than trying to clone the Arkham games and fail like Beenox' spadahmane titles.
All I wanted to do was see what people thought and what do I find but children complaining. It's okay to have a difference in opinion, but name calling is truly childish.
I went in with pretty much no expectations and was really surprised. Difference between Sony and Xbox is Sony showed me games that I was excited about.

Welcome to E3, buddy.
And I'm glad to see that Insomniac has decided to ameliorate this byyyy....... ...literally doing the exact same thing. Innovation!
Let's be real here. This game is Amazing Spiderman 3. From the Arkham combat, to the pseudo-stealth, to web rush, to quick-time events. If this game looked any more derivative, Activision would've put a Call of Duty logo on it.
