I've got the app thing installed on my One, but don't normally get home until about 5:45.
Might see if I can sneak out a few minutes early, drive a little more aggressively than normal, and go down the shortcut that I've shunned for the last couple of years due to the ridiculous number of potholes - and possibly be home for 5:30.

Not a bad conference, but is it enough..? Only one Megaton unleashed in Crackdown 3 right at the end, I think Sony is going to blow this conference out of the water tbh.

Good to see Conker too, love that squirrel! ;D ;D ;D

Theres still fuck all games to buy a ps4 for, so they need to show a lot of exclusives to beat that imo,  they sure showed a load of games, the master chief collection could well be the best collection ever made

Biggest surprise for me was how much fun Sunset Overdrive looked. That's one I'll definitely be picking up. Ori & the Blind Forest looked good, as did Inside (Limbo sequel?). The Division looks like a day 1 purchase too, hope it doesn't suffer a graphics downgrade.

Never touched Halo but I feel I must give the Master Chief collection a try. If only all HD collections had that level of effort put into them!

No "mic dropping" moment, but a reasonably good E3 for MS. An aggressive attempt to win back the US market with all the Halo stuff. Kudos for not mentioning TV once during the whole thing.  :P

I'm not as excited as most folk seem to be by Sunset Overdrive (looks good fun, but I don't need to change my underwear every time someone mentions the game) - but that trailer was fantastically done, cutting in on the soldier hiding in cover behind the crates. =))

Awesome to have the Master Chief Collection confirmed. And not just confirmed - but looking so well packaged, with over 100 maps and custom playlists. I'm a little surprised they're using the old engine - but will definitely be buying it anyway, partly to replay the four campaigns, partly for all that multiplayer, and partly for the halo 5 beta. :D
(Oh - and the TV show. Meh.)

Looking forward to Limbo 2, too (I forget it's name, but it was unmistakably Limbo).

And Witcher 3 looks amazing. I've never played a Witcher game before (have got W2 in cellophane somewhere) and feel I've made a mistake by not trying it yet.

I'm so happy to see the return of Crackdown - so long as it's a new game and not just a reskinned port. Probably my favourite reveal of Microsoft's presser. :D

Cod looked nice, as it usually does - especially the Matrix-style swarm of bots - but I couldn't shake an overwhelming feel of "this is like Titanfall but played at a snails pace instead of freerunning" and that sounds like a poor sell. But there's always Kevin Spacey...

And The Division looks great, natch.

Lol @ PGA tour using Frostbite 3 - allowing "levolution" like a battleship crashing through the course as you play.

Think battlefield has had its day to be honest, well for me anyway, Bf3 was gimped and nowhere near as good as Bf2, and Bf4 was plagued with bugs and did nothing new

I think the reason Sunset Overdrive appeals to me so much is the obvious jet set inspired gameplay and the fact it doesn't take itself seriously

The MC collection is everything I wanted, so glad they aren't messing with the multiplayer, but you do forget how much the graphics have come on in 10 years.  I cant wait to play classic Zanzibar again, I love that map so much

Unsure if crackdown is a remake of the first game or an actual 3rd game.

Looking forward to reading up on Sony's conference tomorrow morning.  Also looking forward to finding out a bit more of civilization : beyond earth.

I was a bit disappointed there was no shenmue news from MS  :(

Battlefield may look great but unfortunately with DICE involved you're pretty much guaranteed that the game is going to be brokenwwhen it launches. :-\

The last Battlefield had big problems (mainly on PC, but also some problems on consoles) but they have a good pedigree and I have high hopes. And the heist mission they showed looked fantastic fun.

Aisha Taylor's winning e3 once again.

Ubisoft done.

I missed the first ten minutes, so missed all the Far Cry 4 stuff - will catch up on that later.
Edit - oh man, I can't wait. This dude might be even better than Vaas. Looks fantastic from that intro :D

I'm liking the look of both Took Clancy games. Rainbow Six Siege is looking great, with fantastic environment destruction. Division looks to have a great story and gameplay looks good.

I'm not one for fitness games, but Shape Up looked good. Not sure if that's because it's good, or they just put on an entertaining show of it. Looks like it makes great use of kinect.

Assassins Creed Unity looks to be more of the same (which is fine) but with some co-op multiplayer missions. I don't do much co-op so I'm not sure about that.

The Crew looks like it has potential, but I don't think they showed/told us anything we hadn't already seem.

Not sure about Valiant Hearts. I'm wary of bringing out a WWI game on the 100th anniversary of the war, but I hear it's tastefully done and it looks pretty and emotional.

And there's the dancing game. Yeah, no thanks.

Didn't watch the Ubisoft conference because that woman is VERY annoying lol.

Did they announce any kind of Expansion Packs for Rocksmith 2014..? Have been expecting BluesSmith for a while.

No, I don't think there was any mention of Rocksmith. Was a great presentation by Ubi all in all.

Missed most of the Sony presser, but highlights seem to be:
Uncharted 4
Little Big Planet 3
Plus a few games for 2015, and a couple of last gen games being ported to current gen.
Sounds like I didn't miss much tbh.
