One presumes this will likely see the reveal of the box itself, a price point and release window. The box is easy, as long as it's not super-huge I won't mind overmuch. The price point is up in the air - M$ have set the bar reasonably high, so anything around that is a win for Sony. Release window is hopefully similarly close together, if not earlier.

Tech demo. Could be an awesome concept for an eventual game, though.


More importantly: FINAL FANTASY XV and MOTHERFUCKING KINGDOM HEARTS III YOU AWESOME BASTARDS SQUARE ENIX1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jakovasaurus]

ha ha ha ha ha!... absurd!

[Defiance]

Meh. Kingdom Hearts 3 will be great for fans of the franchise (my girlfriend is sooo excited about this one), but I can't bring myself to be excited about Final Fantasy XV. Nothing in what has been showed so far suggests it will be anything other than other recent entries. Fancy cinematics and scripted events don't impress me.

Elder Scrolls Online on consoles? Didn't see that coming.

Bullet points to counter everything Microsoft has been getting hammered for. #BUUUUUUURN!

Is it just me or does it sound like you need PS+ to play online multiplayer on the PS4?

[Lucifer's Heaven]

Sony - "For instance, we support the ability for used games" - Biggest cheer of E3 I've heard so far.
Followed by more when:
"When you buy a game you are free to play it, lend it to a friend and trade it in" - Applause
"You won't need to validate anything online. If you want to play offline you can" - Applause
"It won't stop working if you don't log in every 24 hours" - Laugh and applause.

That's paraphrased, because I'm listening to it as I type.
Also, I haven't caught up on this thread since I last posted.

It did sound like that. Damn. Ah well, I don't blame them for that, much as I wish we didn't need to, I'm not surprised.

They're ending weak... not strong, IMO. #LosingMomentumSony #NotTheWay

Thief 4 (or just Thief) reminds me a lot of Dishonored. I've not played any of the Thief games, so is that basically saying Dishonored reminds me of Thief 3 - aka Thief: The Dark Project (and earlier titles)?

[Defiance]

Really? I thought that was a pretty great ending. $400, great games, and avoidance of draconian DRM means this is a day 1 purchase (hopefully).

[Jakovasaurus]

Confirmed: PS4 available Christmas season 2013 for 400 USD (aka $400). ProTip: Biz 101, when the differentiation between your product and your competitor's product is negligible, always, ALWAYS! undercut them with price! #AdvantageSony #SonyWinsThisGeneration #ShiftOfPower

What are you talking about?
I didn't see Thief 4 at all and I thought they ended well. The Destiny gameplay stuff was pretty cool, but I know it was huge to a lot of people. Heaps of people have been waiting to see more Destiny.
And ending on the montage was a nice way to go.

EDIT: Also, dude, this isn't Twitter. Please stop using hashtags, they don't do anything here and you have as many characters as you want to actually say what you mean.
(Just to be clear, this is me asking as someone who is annoyed by out of twitter hashtags, NOT a moderator telling you to stop)

To @Defiance and @Lucifer's Heaven . . . . I was disappointed with the Destiny demo to end the Sony conference. I felt that it fell short and Sony should have ended stronger with another title.

The Thief 4 comment was from an earlier conference (Microsoft). I guess I should have seperated it. I was trying to convey that it reminded me a lot of Dishonered. But I've never played any of the Thief titles, so I was suggesting that maybe, in truth, Dishonored is copying Thief..... does that make sense?

Can't wait for Watch Dogs, it looks bloody amazing. Also I was getting excited about The Order 1886 but wouldn't ya know it, it's PS4 exclusive, dang nabbit.

The solution is simple: BUY THE BETTER CONSOLE. Don't fanboy, be flexible.



On E3: So, more or less, Sony just knocked E3 (and this generation's console war?) out of the park with a series of points which basically catered to every aspect of the Xbox One which gamers didn't like (with like a two minute segment pointing out why media is already in the package for PS3/PS4 owners - loved the comment about actually being the preferred Netflix deivce) and then a price tag a whole $100 US less than the X1? That's more than I was expecting, and my lord does that basically seal the deal. Massive respect to Sony for pulling out all the stops and then some (nuclear option = FF:XV and KH3, because let's face it, even if you're not a fan of the series those are big names to drop in your keynote, given the fans clamouring for them).

They took aim, fired, and it struck home right in M$'s face. Good job. Guess I'll be buying a PS4 this gen then.

[Obdigore]

Ok I'm at work and will watch Sonys conference in a couple minutes. Reading the gossip, I anticipate MS is going to bite the bullet and lower the price of the XB1 or they are just straight fucked at this point.

That said, Titanfall is the game I want most that I've seen so far. Looks much better than BLUE ORANGE BLUE ORANGE of BF4 (although I'm sure I'll get that too)

And Silencer, no, most 'gamers' don't give two shits about Final Fantasy anymore, Squeenix has burned us with the last couple games. Kingdom Hearts has never interested me much, but I understand there is a rabid following.
