Sony had the most exclusive titles while xbox one didnt have any. Only thing i liked that Microsoft showed was the powerful console with the scorpio. Actually they didnt show the scorpio but spoke about the specs. Sony had the best showing of games. All xbox one games will be on the pc which makes all xbox one games multiplatform games

Sony is releasing psvr and over 50 games for it this year. Also theyll have the last guardian and gran turismo this year.

Scottyxboxoneandps43632d ago (Edited 3631d ago )

Console exclusive. Ever heard of it cindy?
I agree sonys games look awesome, especially GodofWar, always loved that series. Like the over the shoulder view point now, looks cool.
But i was a little dissapointed they only had a release date for one first party game, so the others are a long way off.
Another thing was no neo, if that things coming this year, where was it??
But very happy to see microsoft talk about the scorpio, shows they are not going anywhere in the console space, with a serious kick ass console.
Its good we have this competition, we all win.

@EDMIX
What the hell are you talking about?? Console exclusive isnt coming to a rival console so it is exclusive to that console, is it not??
Most console gamers do not have a PC or a PC powerful enough to meet the minnimum requirements of most AAA games, despite what you guys want to believe. So they are exclusives to most console gamers.

Geez, this sites biased as f@*k!!!

competition so good that M$ has learned to put out standout AAA titles every year...oh wait

RiPPn3632d ago

Funny that people are knocking the Sony conference for not having dates, yet if we look back at Microsoft's past E3's, they announced titles that have since been cancelled, like the Coalitions game, Phantom Dust and Fable Legends.. and where is Crackdown 3 which was last years Xbox darling? Not to mention all the CG trailers they've shown.. Then this year they just reshow games that were announced last year, or are now on bi-annual release schedules and that is considered a better showing because dates..? More goal post moving it seems..

It is apparent that Sony is using E3 as a place to showcase their future and using Gamescom, PGW, TGS, and PSX for all the other nonsense.

Pongwater3632d ago

Watching that press conference and listening to their plan made me wonder what reason there is to buy an XB ever again. It won't surprise me at all if Scorpio doesn't sell very well, but we shall see. I'm a PS guy but I didn't expect the generation to go this well for Sony, so I don't claim to be psychic about these things.

Back to that plan though, MS could stop making console hardware altogether and still basically move forward with what they were talking about because of Windows. If Scorpio flops, the shareholders will be talking about that very option.

_-EDMIX-_3632d ago

LOL! Scotty be like "XBOX control exclusive"

Me- But Scotty that is BF1, its on PS4.

Scotty- "no bro, its not XBOX control exclusive doe is it, no its on a PS4 controller"

lol

Sorry but if its on another platform, by default its not exclusive.

ie No Man Sky and SFV are not exclusive no matter what fancy wording someone uses, but neither is ReCore, Gears 4, Scalebound or any of the major titles MS has shown to be coming to PC.

If it is somewhere else, it isn't exclusive to. Its that simple.

leoms3632d ago

There is competition? What competition? Oh, you mean the Euro 2016? Matches have been pretty underwhelming to be honest

jessionpc3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Sony could have had no release dates and people would have shit just the same.

1 company brought passion, another brought $$$... WONDER who that was...

M$ is in it's death throws with the XBOX. They could have a 20 grand pc inside a console, and ship it free to all of us, "I wouldn't accept it, I have integrity.", and it wont change the fact that people rightfully HATE M$.

M$, a bronie zombie smasher, an aged unevolved franchise, "Gears", ANOTHER Halo game... "My GAWD"... A racing game, and probably the only game worth noticing, State of Decay 2. B-BUT SCALEBOU- AUG!... Just HEARING that protagonist speak made me cringe. A bronie mutliplayer whiney kid coop auto target game with no skill? Oh yea. I'll pass... HARD.

Edit: I'd take Kojimas new exclusive any day over M$ entire lineup.

... And I HATE that narccisistic lunatic.

darthv723632d ago

Both MS and Sony had good stuff. GoW is my favorite on the software side and XB1 slim is my favorite on the hardware side.

Both had highs and lows but overall we are the real winners.

badz1493632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

people mocked Sony for using the term "console exclusive" earlier this gen with their indie games and then came SFV and the upcoming NMS also with PC release, and xbox fanboys were like "not an exclusive" banter. but now, all Xbone exclusives are going to PC, they are the one right now championing the term "console exclusive" to justify their games not available on the PS4! karma is a biatch isn't it?

just accept the fact that the xbone now has no exclusive. it was a clear sign earlier this gen when DR3 and Ryse went to PC. at its current state , Windows store games are not performing like they should have been on PC due to limitations put by MS (or is it incompetence?) like RoTR Steam version running better than the Windows store version. but if MS is ever adamant and committed to PC gaming and sort out these issues, all these xbone games will run far better on PC than the Xbone will ever be able to and yes, this includes the Scopio because in terms of PC gaming, 6TF GPU was highend LAST YEAR (2015) while the Scopio will be next year! 2 years gap with high end GPU.

so I'll say this again, Xbox One has no exclusive!

OB1Biker3632d ago

Many complains were precisely about giving dates and then delay. I actually appreciate they don't give BS dates. As for the games being 'a long way off' well many games are only a few months away for PSVR and other games coming in the next few months were not even needed to be 'shown off' in the conference.

killer_goat3632d ago

No one said that neo was supposed to be out this year

3632d ago
Errorist763632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

There are many games releasing this year or early next year that they didn't even mention at the press conference, that's how understated they were. GT Sport, Gravity Rush, Nier, Nioh, Rime, Tomorrow Children just to name a few are all exclusives releasing in the next 9 months.

I don't get it so because the games Microsoft presented will also be windows 10 that means xbox has no games that makes sense. People on this site are so fucking stupid sometimes. On topic I didn't realize e3 was a competition and if Sony won what did they win. Nothing just more fanboys like you waving there flag which is worse for the brand since people like you drive others away.

OB1Biker3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

I understand what your saying. But honestly you shouldn't be surprised people pointing out that xbox has no real exclusives when so many times we got the 'PS4 has no games' ridiculous spam by fanboys.
I totally agree with you that notion of 'winning' E3 is a bit ridiculous and comes around every year but that's the articles prompting the discussion. So let's all complain about gaming journalism.
I must admit I have no interest in xbox but it seems to me most of what they shown were games already introduced last E3 and even from E3 2014 (scalebound) and definitely no new IP at all plus a video of people talking about a console but no showing any of it or its games. DR4 and xb1 s were the notable reveals.
Sony conference was all about what Phil was claiming being the champion when he came in charge : 'games, games and games'.

3632d ago
leoms3632d ago

No need to spin the truth, bud. People say that Xbox has no exclusives since they'll be available on PC not that they have no games even if they are rinse and repeat games releasing on the last 3 months of each year. Sony won consumers. ''Nothing just more fanboys like you waving there flag which is worse for the brand since people like you drive others away.'' that's rich coming from someone insulting people for having their own opinion.

Microsoft showed plenty of games that wont be available on PS4. Most notable were Sea of Thieves, Halo Wars 2, Forza Horizon 3, Gears of War 4, Scalebound, Dead Rising 4, and State of Decay 2. You'd have to be on drugs to say that Microsoft didn't show any games. But then to top it off, they had two hardware announcements, which put them well over the top at E3. Xbox Scorpio, with 6Tflops of computing power brought down the house, and to say otherwise is just plain stupid.

Bathyj3632d ago

God of War 4?
Freudian Slip?

BossBattle3632d ago

You said it best. Nothing else needs to be said.

Doabarrelroll3632d ago

Yeah your right we won't see those games, but you know who will?....PC

You know who's going to see horizon, God of War, crash remaster, Spider-Man, days gone, GT sport, nioh, Neir 2, Gravity rush 2, P5, dreams, The last guardian, Detriot etc. only PlayStation and that's the point. Games are what matter the most hardware after. The PS4 doesn't need a slim, that makes Xbox slim annoucment a non winner. As for Scorpio, you guys act like Sony can't just beef up Neo.

hells_supernova3632d ago

6T/Flops is less powerful than a 1070GPU keep in mind this console is a year out and it is already far outdated. there goes your power advantage. show me games I want to play.

The ps2 was the greatest console of all time or at least of its generation and it was NOT the most powerful. Power means nothing if you do not have the games. And why would I ever buy an xbox now my pc will play all of its games and the online for PC is FREE

Pongwater3632d ago

The problem is they showed little or nothing that will only be on XB1.

Saying a game isnt going to PS4 is fine, but if it's playable on multiple other devices because of Windows the question remains, why buy an XB? People can simply buy an XB controller, play on another device, and still have the game on their big screen. With all the Cloud talk I think that's what MS is angling for eventually anyway tbh.

BattleAxe3632d ago

@ Pong

Absolutely, then all you need to do is go and either build or buy a PC that will perform the task of 4K gaming in a year and a half. Lets meet back here at around that time, and compare the costs between Xbox Scorpio, and a computer that performs at a similar level. My GTX 780 is 3.977 Tflops, and I have an Intel i7 920 CPU and a motherboard from 2009. Do I upgrade my PC, or do I just buy an Xbox Scorpio at 6 Tflops? I suppose it all depends on how much I want to spend at that time. My PC works great in the mean time, but it will be totally obsolete in 1.5 years time.

madmonkey013632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

The gains from scorpio are about the same percentage gain as from 360 to one, and it is 18 months or so away. its essentialy a way to start a new generation early, without too much trouble with early adopters after the failure of xbox One

madmonkey013632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

@ battle

My laptop was £350 and does 4k gamin on windows 10.

you can build a gaming PC around the specs of Scorpio for £400 no problem. with the new AMD card anyway.

£400 is about 570 USD,

My Laptop is a HP Envy with a 950M GPU and i7 CPU, 16GB RAM, Obviously it isnt going to be as good as higher end, or perhaps even the Neo or Scorpio. I was just pointing out it is possible without spending a huge amount of money.

BattleAxe3632d ago

@ madmonkey01

I don't deal in pounds, but what you're say is total nonsense. Show me a parts list, and where it says that you can do 4k gaming for that price. By the way, you would need two AMD RX 480 GPUs for 4K gaming., which is $400.00 USD...then you need your Memory, PSU, Motherboard, CPU, HDD and Optical Drive...add it up! Not to mention, if you're starting from scratch, you need a case and some fans also.

notachance3632d ago

Utalkin2me3632d ago

@BattleAxe

And most of the games MS showed has been revealed already, and you dont need a Xbox1 to play them on either. Just as you stated about the PS4. And far as the hardware announcements, i thought that was the weaker part of the show TBH. I mean it wasn't as corny as the minecraft bit or the voice overs on the Gears characters or as bad as the map design.

Sony's conference slapped MS conference all the while MS calling them daddy as they did it.

Unspoken3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Did someone just compare the Scorpio with the 1070!? That amount of power in a console is going to be beast! Can't wait to have 4K gaming sitting in my entertainment center.

It's funny how now that Xbox games will be on PC as a bad thing. MS just increased the player base and brought more games to everyone and Sony fans think we care that we don't have a Playstation... Yeah.. Ne-oooooo. As in N O. No thanks

They also make it sound like every gamer is going to have a decent PC gaming rig by next year. Where did they get this rational idea from? There will always be a market for fixed hardware sitting alongside PC gaming. Hello, wake up and look around. It's been going on for decades.

Wait, you just bought an Xbox game on Windows (after spending money on a rig which helps MS) and now you want to cry about those who bought an Xbox game on Xbox (which also helps MS) ?

Playstation fans are going to say Sony won, Xbox fans will say MS won. Point blank.

Bathyj3632d ago

I dont see many Xbox fans saying MS won. Youre trying to imply everyone simply sides with their favourite, but its pretty clear who the majority think had the better show, brand biased or not.

BossBattle3632d ago

That's because N4G is mainly Sony fans where they submit articles themselves in their own favor. Isn't N4G based in the UK? I'm in the US.

Pongwater3632d ago

Yeah the consensus seems pretty clear. Even more so than last year.

Utalkin2me3632d ago

@BossBattle

What does N4G have to do with all the journalist there saying Sony took the show?

Doabarrelroll3632d ago

Really cause I'm pretty sure we've seen several Xbox fans admit that Sony E3 was better

Apart from the heavy fanboys like rookie etc. majority prefer Sonys E3, can't blame them

PutridPlop3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

I could say that I'm a Sony fan and that Sony's E3 sucked anyone can be a fakeboy who cares.

Sony didn't show anything up and over what MS showed it's all just more of the same fanboy hype bs. Anyone can disagree with me I don't care I'm just sick of hype. Sony showed games MS showed games which are better is subjective and doesn't equal fact just because a certain group has a majority on this site or anywhere for that matter.

I can't believe that 2 major hardware reveals mean nothing aside from all the games MS showed. Especially when most of the games Sony showed have no release dates and many were already shown at last years E3. Has everyone lost their minds? Who really cares about what makes sense, or if what's said has any shred of truth to it because what it really all boils down to is what brand you're cheering for. Sad. smh.

leoms3632d ago

Huh? What? If NG4 is based in the UK, it is mainly Sony fans? Interesting deduction...

TheColbertinator3632d ago

N4G is actually is based in Sweden. Originally this site was all Microsoft fanboys too.

Themba763632d ago

they say microsoft won because of 6 teraflops and thats it.

BossBattle3632d ago

Sony fans say they won because of 2017-2018 releases. Sony will be showing these same games next year at E3 2017.

IIFloodyII3632d ago

@BossBattle
So it'll be like MS' E3 this year?

Utalkin2me3632d ago

Like MS did last year? And they still didn't even show any new crackdown. And i seen tons of gameplay with those new announcements. Seems you're awful salty, it will go away over time.

Doabarrelroll3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Funny isnt that how long you Xbox guys have waited for scalebound and crackdown(which wasn't at E3, but but but the DA CLOUD)?

how long did Quantum break take before its lackluster release? How long have we've known about gears?

I know you Xbox guys are salty about Sony having a killer E3 but quit this whole Sony announces games 2-3 years away already.

Maybe if Sony didn't release gameplay I'd understand the whole sony announcing games too early. But guess what they showed gameplay, so expect those games games soon.

madmonkey013632d ago

At least there is Halo, Gears, Forza this year, or ws that last year, or the year before. oh wait even those are not exclusive anymore.

Pogmathoin3632d ago

The megatons from last year...... how are they doing? The megatons from this year.... how long for them? At least show games that will be out within 6-9 months..... Salty is Sony fanboys, you can smell it when you lot talk....

lastking953632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Honestly the sony camp comes off as damage controlling. I personally would take new and improved hardware, confirmation a 6tflop monster is in the making and gameplay of games all releasing with 12m. Over teasers of games 2+ years away. Not really surprised not like a die hard would actually admit the other had a better e3.

Doabarrelroll3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Because MS didn't have a better E3. The damage control of Xbox guys is crazy, MS won because they announced a new console. I thought it was games that matter, sounds like all you guys care about is flops and POWAH. As if Sony can't just delay the Neo and make it stronger. MS showed why you don't need an Xbox, Sony showed why you need a PlayStation

you know what was announced two years ago?.....scalebound and crackdown. Where are they? Stop praising MS for showing games from years ago and criticizing Sony for actually announcing new games WITH gameplay. Sony showed more gameplay with their new games at their E3 than MS has with more than half of their exclusives in the last two years.

TLG and GT this year, horizon, Nier 2, P5, and Gravity Rush 2, MLB 17 early next year, GOW and days gone showed really good gameplay so don't be surprised if they come next holiday same with Detroit. Only Kojimas game and Spider-Man seem like 2018

And the best part they still got more with sucker punch, sony London, etc. you want games well Sony has them, and they are REAL exclusives

lastking953632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Doa lets have a serious talk not for console war sake for gaming understanding.
Did you like everything Sony showed?

Are you excited for TLG?
What is your favorite thing about the game and what part of its preview trailers/gp got you excited?

Was there anything ms showed, you thought was interesting?

Are you not a fan of a 6tflop console?

Because ms wants to unify all their w10 platforms makes their game reveals meaningless?

You would rather have a teaser of a game that just started production without any info over a revised console with new and better features?

Would you have perfered for Sony to have revealed the NEO over revealing kojimas game and CoD?

ABizzel13632d ago

@lastkins95

I'll answer your question.

Did you like everything Sony showed?

Just about, literally 99% of the showings were potential buys whether Day 1 or discounted.

Are you excited for TLG?

Absolutely. The multiple Trico's, the potential of the story and artistic design, and the pedigree of the developer are all reasons to be excited.

Are you not a fan of a 6tflop console?

It's nice to have power and I'm all for the Scroprio and Neo, but at what cost will that power come. The Scorpio is looking like a potential 2017 $499 console which is fine IMO, but at the same time it's looking more like a successor to the XBO than a revision like the Neo is rumored to be, which is kind of a bummer besides the fact that XBO games will all work on it. The hardware is more than acceptable, but.....

Because ms wants to unify all their w10 platforms makes their game reveals meaningless?

I have a gaming PC already with an i7 CPU in it, 16GB of RAM (more if I wanted), and I'm buying a GTX 1070 soon, so I'll already have a PC that's practically a slightly superior XB Scorpio that will also get the majority of games the XBO and Scorpio will have (at this point literally close to 99% if not 99.9%). Why do I ever need to buy an XB console again when my Windows 10 PC can play all those games as well as play with all my Xbox friends. I'm all for the Scorpio for people who don't get into PC gaming, but for someone like myself there's little reason to ever own a Xbox again when PC has 99% of it's games.

For MS this is a good business on the software side (which is where the money is), but it pretty much removes the need for any PC gamer to buy a Xbox console ever again, which has the potential to keep Xbox hardware stuck in a cycle of 40m - 60m units lifetime sales per generation unless they make the Scorpio practically a Steam Machine / upgradable gaming PConsole, with universal PC apps, and the brand recognition and price to own the low-end / mid-range PC enthusiast.

You would rather have a teaser of a game that just started production without any info over a revised console with new and better features?

I buy consoles to play games, and all the games show at the PS conference had great gameplay demos shown at E3. What's the point of new hardware if there aren't new and exciting games to show?

Would you have preferred for Sony to have revealed the NEO over revealing kojimas game and CoD?

NEO will come when it's ready. New hardware is always exciting, but so are new games and while Kojima's game is likely 2 years away, the rest were 2016 - 2017 games and to me that's more important, than a new console will that will play those games at higher resolutions with better graphics settings.

PizzaSteve3632d ago

You just laid the smack down on lastking95 lol.

lastking953632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Lol just what i thought youd say. You sir are simply a fanboy to the extreme lol. Sorry cant put it any other way.

You claim your okay with 6tflops but bring up cost then in the very next answer talk about having a a powerful pc thats way more expensive!

All sony games show interested you lol (surprise)

You seem to love nithing but console sales. Does it honestly matter rather ms sell 60 instead of 80 million due to releasing games on w10? They make no profit off consoles sold its the software. It like complaining sony releasing games on vita or something.

MS show new hardware and games soo.....what the problem? Shouldnt you be happy theyre coming to w10 pc? Just odd your complaining about ms supporting a platform of theirs that you paid top dollar for.

Excited for the neo but not the scorpio -_- tells it all right there but tyrns out to be the same type but one is 6tflops while the other is rumored 4 lol. Hope to see you online via crossplay i can teach you a thing or two ;)

Anyway as i said in my first post this confirms it, damage control no doubt. Thank you for the talk removed the doubt and hope for you guys.

ABizzel13632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

@lastking

No you sir aren't lacking in the intellect department, because I also said "The Scorpio is looking like a potential 2017 $499 console which is fine IMO".

Everything in that PC I already have besides the new $380 GPU, which is the only expense I will need going forward. On the flipside I could buy a $199 RX 480 and just overclock it and have the XB Scorpio now.

I bought a $400 XBO this generation ($500 for some gamers), and in what 4 years if I upgrade to Scorpio that's another $500. For console gamers that's $1,000 and costly, and in comparison a gaming PC can be made or bought with significantly more functionality, a compact console like design, and from that point forward a simple GPU replacement if MS continues in the direction of all games Xbox and W10 exclusive.

For someone like myself I have no reason to buy an Xbox, because I have a PC capable enough to run anything thrown at it. For non-PC gamers there's still the XBO and Xbox Scorpio. What's the point of me spending $380 on a GPU, and then $500 on a console that share 99.9% of the same library.

You sir are simply a fanboy to the extreme.

If a console doesn't sale enough hardware then the need for said consoles hardware will soon become a company liability and possibly removed. Look at Nintendo's position and PS Vita. And all the console manufactures are making profit on their hardware at this point.

Show me where I said anything negative about MS conference for the fact that their games are coming to W10. I could care less, because I have the PC to play them, the problem is for MS they gave multiconsole/PC gamers like myself a reason to not buy an Xbox, since we can use our current hardware.

"It's nice to have power and I'm all for the Scorpio and Neo,"

The only things you can teach are idiocy and bigotry.

You would take a more powerful hardware over games? I don't know why but I believe you. It's not like you need GAMES for a console or anything

@Unspoken
Strange, I always heard Sony fans talk about games giving examples of the PS2 having less power than the Xbox or the Wii having less power than the PS3 and Xbox360. You know, less power but still winning the generation but you must be one of those ''shills'' trying to spin as such,eh.

lastking953632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Lol ill take both thank you ;) recore looking pretty good aswell as scalebound co op. Dr4 looks fun but i wish it was more serious and difficult. I wonder how itll take advantage of the scorpio power. Forza is unstoppable i honest thought h3 wouldnt be much of an improvement over h2 but WOW i was wrong. Dev said itll use the XO slim hdr cant wait to see the comparison. Next 8 months of gaming is gonna be great. New XO, awesome games and after that 8 months......a monster will appear damn i cant wait.

madmonkey013632d ago

funny how suddenly more power is important to xbox people. When they used to say it was all about the games. Well for the next 18 months the xbox still behind on both fronts, and we do not Know about a new PlayStation yet.

Unspoken3632d ago

It's also funny to see the reverse and have Sony fans say power means nothing now, its all about the games. You need the hardware first to make the immersive games. If you want to play PS4 games forever, more power to you. I never believed there was an issue with the Xbox One's power as I knew it was temporary and I would still enjoy its offerings. Would I turn down the convenience of a versatile semi-future proofed console? Absolutely not. Especially in between stages when I'm upgrading my PC to a newer card.I get to keep the same games library and app as they are released on both platforms. I keep my PC in the office with mouse and keyboard and my Xbox in the living next to my 4K screen.

Having choices isn't a bad thing and I don't get how these shills are trying to spin it as such. You now have the option to go gaming rig or streamlined console, have cross-platform play, cross-platform saves, and have accessories work with both.

Doabarrelroll3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Yes okay I'll prove I'm not all talk or some blind fanboy and give my honest opinion.

Yes I liked TLG I can enjoy story games, I have a feeling it's gonna be a story about mystery and friendship and really tugs at your heart kind of games, that's the vibes in getting from looking at it. Definetly gonna play and beat it,

Crash remasters, dont even have to ask day one buy. I don't care for GOW but a lot do, Detroit looks cool, I liked heavy rain and if it's anything like it I'm sold. Horizon, open world Dino bots all I gotta say. I don't care for Spider-Man games but I'm still gonna get it and play to show my support for insomniac, and I'm trying to play more games I never wouldn't have played in the past. Days gone, day one buy, zombies and such plus I was hoping Sony gets their own zombie exclusive game, my wish was granted. Kojima, unknown need more info but he has my attention. Yes I really liked what Sony showed and keeps me looking to the future game wise , I'm already stacked for the holidays and early next year so I'm not bothered about no release dates as I'm very patient.

Now for MS I won't lie I'm salty about FH3 because Sony doesn't have a great open arcade racer and FH is best at it. I prefer GT to main forza and don't care what any says I personally feel it's better. Recore looks cool like R&C to me and scalebound and is the best game MS has coming(dragons that is all). I was salty about SOD2 and DR4, not anymore. As for halo, I don't like future shooters. And gears looks cool, MS showed a lot of cool stuff and I guess their stuff is cool with the whole PC thing, and honestly if I had time and money I maybe would buy and Xbox to play games but my needs have always been satisfied by PS that I just never look back or care

Now in terms of hardware and features such I'll be honest, I don't care for that. I just want games with gameplay which is what Sony showed me, the only features that I can think of that I would like for Sony to add is to change your PSN ID, larger party, that's it, don't care for netflix, or any of that, maybe others do but I don't. Once Sony added friend notifications I was happy, i'm not interested in the NEO at all, honesty I'm glad Sony didn't waste time showcasing it, I'll take COD( and I hate cod only buying it for COD4)or Kojimas game over it.

And I don't care for power or any of that I know fanboys have talked about it nonstop and such since this gen and the roles are about to reverse again but here's my take.
Ill admit to making fanboy comments on this site, I'll admit to not calling out Sony fanboys enough, I'll admit to Xbox live being better than PSN and ill admit I need to practice on how to accept people opinions better so I'm not a hypocrite. BUT if there's one thing I've never ever EVER done is brag about power and resolution. Last gen I didn't even know what FPS and resolution was, no joke that's how much I care about it. Which is why this whole Scorpio announcement doesn't mean much to me, to me truthfully it looks like MS's attempt to quickly move on to next gen and start over because of PS4 beating XB1.

If people say MS won E3 cause they prefer their games fine, everyone has opinions, but people keep saying MS won cause of Scorpio not games. And keep ranking on Sony with the whole 2-3 year game thing, which is what MS did this year with some of their games and it's annoying to me. But that's my honest opinion I don't what else to say to try and prove I'm not a fanboy also I think I'm out of bubbles

lastking953632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

Now youre coming around. Ppl that say ms won say it cause the prefered the games AND hardware.

You keep contradicting yourself you say ms had games youre interested in but then say youre not intrested in new hardware to play these games at better exprience lvls but also said previously youre interested in the neo? Wtf?

So xbox has things youre interested in but you bash anything xbox and hype anything ps. You can only afford to support ps okay nothing wrong with that. So why would you say ms showed no games and their e3 wasnt good but now youre saying it wasnt so bad but simply prefered sonys? Which is it? Understand how that making you look? You can like one more without bashing the other you know?

objdadon3632d ago

Lol, feeling good about needing a next gen console in only a 4th year is hilarious. Did you see how good god of war, horizon, and days gone looked on just the regular ps4 compared to everything that Microsoft showed??? That's what having great studios that actually know how to make great games and optimize a console's performance looks like buddy.

notachance3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

what I don't get is why XB1 owners want to spend obviously more money to buy Scorpio when they could've use that to buy PS4 and NX and have the entirety of console gaming, I know I'll buy NX instead of Neo when it comes out.

Just use that money for PS4 and be done with your cause, now you can genuinely excited about games instead of feeling obligated to hate the other camp.. which was rocking the god of war GAMEPLAY, ooh I know many of you hardcore XB fanboys were excited for it

Errorist763632d ago

They won because they announced a new console three years in?! One must be pretty hard fanboy to render this desperate move as a good thing.

Utalkin2me3632d ago

@lastking95

I mean thats great logic maybe for you. But im a gamer and want new games and games that will appeal to me. Correct me if im wrong, but there was ton of gameplay to alot of the new announcements. You say 2+ years away, but alot of them seemed farther along then that. But your precious scorpio is a year and half away and all the did was make a announcement. And it's already outdated and still a ways off.

P.S. Not really surprised not like a die hard would actually admit the other had a better e3.

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose27d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE27d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername27d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy27d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde27d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8627d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8627d ago (Edited 27d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300027d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
