Oh ffs... this is the same god damn line up as EVERY YEAR. HALO...check, BF4... check, driving game....check. where is Madden?
This is MS. MS has been Forza / Dudebro shooters / ESPN for years. $499 - dead silence. Surprised no Epic presence. Maybe they'll be at Sony?

This of course means the PS4 is gonna be like $600, but whatever.

Didn't sony announce some sort of deal regarding the unreal engine and the ps4 back at their initial reveal? That might explain alot there.

So they have dudes who can hack into stuff remotely, but not drones? Why is it always dudes with guns in the future?

I see them going for the throat and selling it at $300-$400 this gen. They're already making licensing dollars for Blu-Ray off Microsoft for every single XBox One sold/made. Also, they have an actual chance of fucking crushing both companies in one generation. This does not happen often - and has not happened since the SNES. The PS1 and PS2 eras were pretty dominated by Sony but it wasn't like the SNES crushing the Genesis into a protein compound unheard of by man up to that point.

If Sony is going for the throat they'll have their guy walk out, say "$299" or "$399" then drop his mic and walk off stage.

I'm not sure what's worse, the fact that there was almost no gameplay footage of anything, or what gameplay footage was shown.
I've seen this game a hundred times.

In this case, their "guy" should be Pharrell. Then Get Lucky plays and everyone gets a free copy of The Last Guardian.

Did not enjoy guy, try again with a game that actually makes sense. Hire better designers.

So which one of the brown games with guns and severe framerate drops/texture popin should I play first?
The series I never cared about? The series the devs forgot the point of? The series that's always better on PC? Or the new shooter that no one will play because all of the above series and CoD being "better"?

There was not a single thing even remotely exciting. My expectations were low but I was expecting a couple of surprises or at least a couple things I would want to play.

That BF4 looks like every other shooter on rails  BF 4 is I think the final piece of the EA Acquisition puzzle. It's the last dryhumping of a successful franchise before the slow decline caused by not actually doing shit to make the later iterations of the franchise better or even remotely fucking different. This is Command & Conquer, the FPS version. Also, $500. FUCK YOU. There has literally not been one thing this console has shown me that even remotely makes me interested in it.

I'd like to see the Ubisoft conference just out of the hope that Patrice will cause a chandelier to crash on stage or shut the lights off and kidnap one of the presenters.

Reports are coming in that some of the footage shown was PC footage due to technicalities encountered.

There was a "Press Backspace for Battlelog" thing in the BF4 video.

Yes, that's... kind of my point. I think their recent actions are worse than anything EA has ever done.

Usually when I decide not to buy a console I know I'm missing out on at least some good stuff. Here though the decision is so easy.
Dead Rising 3 is the one thing I might have missed, so thanks to them for turning it into a game I can safely ignore.
