Starcraft Ghost it is then.
I don't think bethesda or sony even really needed a conference this year, they both used the stage to talk about 2 times and they didn't even last long or say anything worth saying. Would have been fine with a digital event.
The live orchestra and low rent cirque du soleil do nothing for me.

Starcraft Ghost + Geist crossover we all wanted
Good until after the MH/SotC one two punch, then muted until God of War demo picked them up a bit.
The biggest problem I had with Sony's conference was that they didn't really show off the games. Take Monster Hunter for example, that game really needed a gameplay demo with someone to explaining the systems on stage.
So far I'd rank the conferences
Bethesda
Ubisoft
Sony
Microsoft
EA.

No. There's plenty of time to explain things. Don't put me to sleep when it's already 3am at that point.
Format is great. They just needed more #content.

The MH video demonstrated its game mechanics very well without a single word.

Kyle was genuinely delighted by God of War but other than that...he seemed more snarky than usual?
i'm not sure if it's the trademark 'leak' that started it, but i got the impression he was upset about something

Thank you. I'll check a look.
He was upset about the conference if anything. Kyle is snarky and what they showed was easy to be snarky about.

Well everyone did tell him that he shouldn't spoil it ahead of time then after it happened everyone once again said that they were glad he didn't spoil it but he wanted to talk about it.

Smells faintly of rancid stilton.
Nah it Warcraft 2 remake
Yeah I know it's cool to be all games, games, games / no talking allowed but it can be taken too far. A giant trailer reel can create a disconnected feeling.

Huber comment about "too much marvel" also did not make sense to me, because a) he loves marvel and b) Spider-man is the first (and currently only) triple A game under the new marvel video games initiative.

I feel like psx 2016 was better than every conference this year aside from uni.
He's not talking games, he's talking Marvel everything. Like I could take a dump later and I'll half expect Iron Man to come out.
Plus Marvel Heroes Omega, Marvel V Capcom, Lego Marvel 2, Guardians of the Galaxy games in just games this year... Doesn't matter if it's AAA or not

Did he say that? lol. After defending Assassin's Creed by saying it's like the MCU to him? Haha.

I actually went to bed after Ubisoft last night. Couldn´t make it trough the whole night (i miss my early twenties -.-) so watched Sony just now.
Was a good conference, good games. Monster Hunter looks cool, the rest was basically just updates on games that were announced a year ago (yes i count the SotC in that too).
I like the whole game after game after game thing, though it felt like some of them needed some time to breath. Explain some systems etc. i don´t know. That theater stuff they were doing was cool at first but went kinda stupid as the conference went on.
Rankings thus far.
Ubisoft
PC Gaming
MS - Sony
Big space between
EA
Big space between
Bethesda - 2 games - wasn´t needed.
Devolver - It´s time to stop.meme
Time for Nintendo to steal the show. I want some nukes to go off.

4pm
Yeah, weird analysis. Especially after the Slumber Party at GT.
Thanks. Wonder if Damiani will be hosting it
Yeah, came in wanting Mario looking good, Zelda DLC and Splatoon 2 with maybe 1 announcement and I'll be happy. I'll stick to that.
Was Damiani on any of the panels so far? Think he prefers being on the desk.
I need to watch their version today.
Man, the Gamespot pannel was so down on the show you'd have thought someone shot their collective dogs.
I think after 2015 and 2016 the expectations were too high, but the presser would imo hsve been better by including the preshow in it.
Have no idea why they split that...
He was supposed to be on the desk for the PC show with Kyle running XSPLIT, but as Kyle came a bit late, Damiani just ran it even when Kyle offered to switch. Even if he's not on the main desk, I'm sure he'll have things to say, but he has always seemed to be a guy who prefers to absorb the information and then give a measured response rather than react with hot takes.
Yuuuuup
Yeah, because of the 25 minutes thing I'm actually keeping my expectations pretty low, Sony helped too with that. Show me some of that Mario Odyssey goodness and I'll already be pretty pleased

woops wrong thread.
So far they've had 3 of the 4 podcast hosts do a panel. It would seem right for him to host his subject but I can also see him choosing to do comp duty
So excited for Odyssey, hoping we get to see a new environment that hasn't been shown yet in the trailer
I heard that it's a switch only showcase and 3ds is mainly tree house stuff
If you think that's all there is to Monster Hunter, you're in for a huge shock.
I think Spotlight is going to be Switch only. They have 1hr of Treehouse stream afterwards for 3ds games.
Spicy.

you know how Microsoft's conference was good because it was just game, game, game, game, game, game.... but then it kinda wasn't good because in the back of your mind you're thinking "yeah, but I can play this on PC and/or PS4 also, so so what?"
Nintendo's in a situation where, obviously any first party game (unless it's another Federation Force) is going to be a "holy shit," but also any third party game is going to be a "holy shit."
it's going to be so easy for them to steal E3 right here.
