Starting point is 00:00:12 What's up guys? Welcome to the Kind of Funny Games cast for Sony PlayStation's E3 2018 post show analysis. I'm Tim Getty. He's joined by one of the coolest dudes in video games, Greg Miller. And the number one game's journalist, Andy Cortez. The last of us. That was your weakest one. Sorry, guys. You've been killing it all day. That's who you end with?
Starting point is 00:00:33 Sorry, man. I don't know about that. We just saw Sony's press conference. We've been doing every one of the E3 press conferences live, doing watch long as a little pre-show. We do our post show analysis like we're doing right now. At the end of this, we're going to rank all the conferences so far. It's a fun little thing that we've been doing. You should follow along.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Let us know in the comments below what you think about the press conferences. Let's start it off. What do we think about this one? I thought the content was great. I was a big fan of every demo. I think they put out there, right? I wasn't bored. I wasn't like, why are we showing this?
Starting point is 00:01:05 Why are we wasting time on this? I liked the dedication they had to the four titles they talked about that they were going to go big on. And then I like the way they inserted stuff, right? Call of Duty Black Ops for getting inserted, talking about these maps from Black Ops 1 and 2 being remastered coming to 4 as well as three, three being shadow. You were in the bathroom for this part. Shadow dropped tonight as a PlayStation Plus game, Black Ops 3.
Starting point is 00:01:25 Oh, cool. So you can pick that up and go. That's cool. But it's like same thing of like, okay, well, I'm not a big call of duty guy, but we moved through quick and we got there and I understand it. I thought the remedy announcement was huge. I thought the remake announcement was huge. Trevor saves the universe isn't huge, but it's cool.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I like that idea. another kingdom hearts trailer. The best kingdom hearts trailer. Right. I liked all the... I enjoyed this one a lot. The problem is, what we're going to talk about,
Starting point is 00:01:48 obviously, is just it was a... Holy shit, we're... Why is the... We're in this weird barn. The audio on Sean's mic sucks. Okay, here comes Gustavo.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Okay, this is a slow, weird entry. Oh, it's last... Oh, last of it. It's like the barn and last... All right, cool. Fucking amazing Last of Us 2 demo. Holy shit. And then the end and like,
Starting point is 00:02:07 all right, cool. We're gonna kick to Sid and Ryan. And Sean, while we moved to another room. Yeah. And it was like, wait, what? And that was a weird, like, boom. They could have just not done any of that and just showed it all in the big room and everything would have worked smoothly.
Starting point is 00:02:20 And this would have been easily the best conference. And more than that, I feel, I feel like me. Yeah, me too. But more than that, I feel like they could have just had multiple locations. And yeah, not everyone in the room is going to get to move to each one. But it's just like, this is, like, you can't rely on the 100 people, like 1,000 people in the room. It needs to be way more than that.
Starting point is 00:02:37 It's the people at home watching, right? Sure. And if they were, I had four different locations that were decked out and super dope, that could have been really cool. It was weird in the beginning, but it could have had a great payoff. But how they did it, that's a hard no from me. I'm glad they didn't because I wouldn't want to keep kicking to the desk to. No, no, but I'm saying if they had four different locations at the same time. So four different locations and there's a hundred people in every room.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Cut to the trailers and the third party stuff. Then we cut over and there's somewhere else like shoe hayes at one place, laden's at one place. Gotcha, got you gotcha. That'd be fucking awesome if they did it that way. From a presentation standpoint, I think once we got done with the intermission, that's when things started getting through there. That's the whole thing is once they were done with the intermission, we're into what I predicted, which was a pretty traditional Sony press conference. Because I got worried, you know, because when people were to do the four dives on these four games, people were like, oh my God, is it going to be like PSX where there's so much talking and not as much gameplay. I was like, no, no way, you're misreading.
Starting point is 00:03:30 And when Sean Linden walked out in the barn, I was like, fuck, is it going to be like, are we going to, and it wasn't. We got out of that and then it was fine. And then you rolled into announcement, announcement, trailer, trailer. Once we got out of that, it was like, let's fuck. And for me, it's like this conference, why I love this one the most is for the same reason why some people may out there love the square. Enoch's one the most because those games speak to them where like death stranding, I'm 100% in. I'm obviously super stoked about Spider-Man. The Last of Us is phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Like these games speak more to me and my taste and the games that I'm excited. about to play in the future. Yeah. And so, you know, despite that problem in the beginning, I thought it was still my favorite conference so far. Yeah, I mean, I have to agree as well. I think it was just pound for pound similar to what we were talking about with Ubisoft, whereas like, I'm into pretty much all these games.
Starting point is 00:04:22 We're seeing something into these games. Let's run through the blow by blow. As we talked about, we opened with The Last of Us Part 2 after Sean Landon come out after Gustavo played again. We get an older alien in a barn. They're having like a hoe down. Maybe it was a church. He described their room as a.
Starting point is 00:04:35 church. The thing looked like a barn. Either way, I guess it's a church. They were in there having their old dance party. She was drinking a bit. She's an older person. A dude walked over and asked her about, or started talking about her old man. Billy is the man who walked over. Started talking about Ellie's old man, who we assume is Joel, which I think is awesome that at this point they're just like, yep, we're father and daughter. That's how you're, you know, this is how our relationship is. Then I was, Ellie and Billy were watching two people dancing. I got a little confused. Was Billy referencing that he used to date that girl? Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Okay, okay. Yeah. And then the girl comes over, gets Ellie, and they have a very sweet moment. And then they go out there and they start smooching. You know what I mean? Or get ready to smooch? They smooch there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:16 They smooch there and the animations looked fucking amazing. And it was a great fucking turn of this beautiful warm setting, which we're not used to. And I use warm as I mean the color profile of, we're in this place and it's clearly you can get the vibe of we know it's hot because she's talked about being hot. It's got that lovely, you know, red, orange, yellow vibe of it. it's a warmth environment and then turn it to this dark blue, desolate, like,
Starting point is 00:05:39 yeah. But wait, so going back a little bit, what, what happened there? So, Billy was with the girl, broke up and was like,
Starting point is 00:05:47 oh, there's no more chance. And then Ellie's like, no, no, no, I give it two weeks. You'll be back together.
Starting point is 00:05:51 And then the girl came and grabbed Ellie and she's like, I, one week. Yeah. What's, no, it was that Billy asked her. Did you hear,
Starting point is 00:05:59 did she say anything? Yeah, why did she say something? Like, okay, one week, because clearly you want to, you want to get back together with it or something.
Starting point is 00:06:04 But yeah, then I guess they got to assume that in the future there's not a whole lot of people around and the commie, you know, people fucking, right, left and right. Yeah, you got to, yeah. You know what I mean? But then we get into gameplay there where they go through. It was a brutal, brutal scene that I'm sure, obviously we know the people on Twitch watch with us.
Starting point is 00:06:19 If you're watching there, you have to go watch it. Of them, yeah, Ellie is marching through the leafy area, not a jungle, obviously, but in the tall grass, popping out of it, stabbing people, brutal, brutal action. I mean, for the people who were worried about that one cut scene for Paris Games, we being too violent. This was definitely fucking up there. Not the game for you.
Starting point is 00:06:38 And she fucking stabs a woman underneath your jaw and then takes the hammer and buries the sharp end into the dude's skull. I love the variation and animation we saw for the different kills. Yeah. For the gameplay of it, it's like, man, if they can add so much more of that, it's like when they announced last was part too, of course I was stoked. But it's like, can they really outdo the first one? Yeah. This is the first time that I'm like, I think they can. can. Yeah, no, this whole thing looks awesome. I'm super, I thought it was awesome. Yeah, I mean, the, the violence, the
Starting point is 00:07:09 action, it seems like there's more of a, we saw some moves that I wasn't, I don't really remember from part one of the last of us where Ellie has that dodgeback move to sort of avoid hits. I don't really remember that being in part one. Maybe I just, I'm misremembering. Yeah. But it seems like there's a little bit more in terms of like melee combat but that's like one of the most intense trailers we've seen so far that's i mean it was still gameplay um i i was just blown away by it like i and i'm honestly i'm kind of glad we had that really long like shitty intermission because i knew just time to fucking breathe you know what i mean yeah um i mean i'm not excusing the intermission it was still bad right one of the things you brought up they're having problems they weren't sure when they
Starting point is 00:07:51 were going to get going you know one of the things you brought up during the last of us demo i liked a lot was how barren the screen was in terms of a HUD. Like there was a little circle down in the right corner, right? And it wasn't until Ellie drew her bow and arrow that it popped up, that that was happening. Then she picked stuff up and I saw a wrench pop up for crafting mechanics. And like, same thing for when she started using a gun finally. Very minimal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Then yeah, though. Then it ended and we went into the weird intermission. That was just a total gear shift. And I don't personally know or I don't believe it was worth doing the barn. dance to then move to this. You should have just started us in the room and gone. Start the big room. Don't waste time. Yeah, exactly, right? Like, just get there and go
Starting point is 00:08:33 because it was weird than to have people transitioning over. Sean, he came out and talked to the guys, though, talked a little bit about that. The most important thing that they said there was that God of Wars getting a new game plus. Okay, cool. That's rad. You know what I mean? That'll come down the line. Sid said'll be on the blog eventually. Then they... Dreams and emissions the entire time, by the way,
Starting point is 00:08:50 with no payoff. Yeah, well, I mean, they said they weren't going to talk about it, really, right? But it's weird they're even there because I feel like that's like the type of thing that gives some context for. Yeah. Then it was Call on Duty Black Ops that you're talking about out there as well. You know, hey, guess what? The lists or the, some maps are getting remastered favorites from Black Ops 1 and Black Ops 2.
Starting point is 00:09:09 They're coming over to Black Ops 4. However, if you, they're also coming to PS or BlackOps 3. And if you're a PlayStation Plus member tonight, you can download PlayState or God damn it, BlackOps 3 and be ready to go. Then they recapped the pre-show stuff they'd done throughout the week. So Days Gone's release date. Beat saver coming on, et cetera, so on stuff. A weird thing I didn't understand why you do that, but whatever. We jumped back.
Starting point is 00:09:30 They had, or they didn't jump back actually yet. They had another thing for Destiny. That's when the Twitch stream died, and by the time we got to the YouTube stream, was already gone. I don't know what they said about Destiny. Me either, yeah. We just saw that. No, no, I don't want to, case somebody watched it.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Oh. Kate Sixth died. Yeah, yeah. But he didn't really die. Who knows what that was on the ground? Yeah, okay. When that ended, though, it was into the Ghost of Sistashima, another one that opened with a actual musical performance from a guy.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Then they jumped into... Real quick. Yeah. Which I'm happy about because the last of us won't last it a little too long. And then they jumped into the demo itself of the game.
Starting point is 00:10:02 A Mongol invasion, day nine, I think it said, but I'm rusty on that. What? Yeah, it did. Okay. Day nine, that's what I'm more rusty on. It said day nine.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Well, the guy playing the flute went quickly for us because we switched to the tuition. I still think it was a little bit too long. Oh, maybe. Yeah. Then we met the main character, Jin.
Starting point is 00:10:20 He was out there with his sword. I thought it was... I think the game's beautiful. I didn't like his straw thing or whatever I thought that actually detracted because it I was like that should be blowing more when he's on the horse or when he's doing this thing I feel
Starting point is 00:10:32 but whatever that looked great him going through the fields looks great the actual scope of the landscape being able to see out across the environment to see that in HDR it's gonna be so fucking hot yeah it's beautiful it did not grab me at all
Starting point is 00:10:47 nipples were not hard guys as gorgeous as it was the combat just seemed like kind of every other game that we'd expect, which I, you know, what can you really expect at this point? Yeah. But yeah, like I mentioned earlier, it reminds me of that, you know, we're, I guess people are finally getting the Japanese assassin's creed, sudden, you know. Sure. Samurai swords and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Yeah, it just didn't really do much for me, unfortunately. I thought the combat looked cool. I thought the sword fighting looked cool. I, yeah, I mean, it didn't look like it was reinventing anything. It was like shades of Arkham, and I think Arkham does it better in certain respects. but I'm interested still. Like I love Sucker Punch. You gotta see how it feels and stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Yeah, exactly. I want to play it myself and see what's going on with it. Up next then, Control. This is from Remedy, published by 505. Remedy, of course, the folks who started Max Payne, just did Alan Wake and then did Quantum Break. They're no longer under just their Xbox exclusivity. Coming over and doing this,
Starting point is 00:11:43 the gameplay and the trailer looked rad. It looked a lot like quantum breaking sections of this girl, being able to kind of freeze time, play with time, shoot stuff or gun moves, weird stuff. She's flying. It looked trippy as hell and it looked cool. You thought it looked too weird at times. No, no, no, at times. I thought that I kept vacillating between being like, this is the
Starting point is 00:11:59 perfect type of out there, what the fuck's happening stuff, and oh, this is the this is two out there, and I don't like how it gels with the rest of the visuals that we're seeing. I'm more interested than this than I've ever been in one of their games. Yeah, yeah, that's true. I was 100% in. I was like, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:12:15 You piqued my interest. I'm going to check that off as like something that I'm like looking forward to. Yeah, I thought I was super stoked on it. It was weird. like inception shit, but just floating blocks and like, man, I am so stoked for whatever the hell this game is. Really excited about it. Then it was Resident Evil 2 remake. So hype. Nice trailer. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Yeah, Claire looked a little weird to me, but everything else. I was like, yes, this is exactly what I want. This game exists. I was almost convinced it wasn't going to ever come out, let alone be announced in real and all this stuff and coming so soon. Yeah. January 25th? Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:51 Yeah, that was the big shock for me is that it's that far along and it's right there. I love R. Radio Dark for so long, right? We're in DMC5 and RE2. What? Yeah. Yeah, it looks awesome. I want to see more of it.
Starting point is 00:13:02 I loved the PlayStation 1 being in the... So cool, man. So fucking cool. Then it was Trover saves the universe on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR. Quick one. It's from Justin Roylin and Squanch games from Accounting Plus and the Rick and Morty VR game. Love Accounting Plus. Need to get to Rick and Morty still.
Starting point is 00:13:19 But I'm stoked. I'm cool more of that. Again, if it's not your thing, they didn't waste too much time on it, right? Exactly. I love Riland's humor. Yeah, exactly. Then we did Kingdom Hearts.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Of course, Breaking News, January 29th, that game's coming out. They showed a different trailer with the pirates in it and stuff like this. And Real Talk, man, that was the best trailer we've seen in the last week.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Like, I know that we saw Two. For Kingdom Hearts. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Drew Talk, best trailer of B3. Kingdom Hearts. But that definitely got me the most hyped.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Seeing the Pirates stuff. Like, that was one of my favorite parts of two. I think it looks really great. in the engine for Kingdom Hearts 3. Yeah. And yeah, the story elements we got there. I'm really interested what they showed at the end there.
Starting point is 00:13:58 I don't know what the fuck's going on with Riku. But it's like that's the type of stuff that I'm like, that's what I'm here for Kingdom Hearts. So I thought that was way better than the other two. Still had the weird audio. Still not a great trailer. Of course, they at the very end of it showed that there's going to be a PlayStation 4 Pro Special Edition.
Starting point is 00:14:15 That is King of Hearts theme. That's cool. Do we already know that? I didn't know that. Okay, cool. And then they showed this. PlayStation 4 Kingdom Hearts package. Yeah, with all the Kingdom Hearts games in one package.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Very, very cool for people that I don't know. I don't know who exactly this is for. Yeah. This would be great on Xbox. Okay, because they don't have any of those games. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I mean, you know what? Whatever. They're going to sell millions of copies no matter what.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Then it was Death Stranding coming out, actually seeing gameplay of Norman moving around throughout this universe, getting a little bit more story from it. We were obviously excited in the beginning. There's a lot of stuff. we're listening off the TV. I thought the woman asked him what's your level. And then he said he wasn't as high as her. He can't see them,
Starting point is 00:14:58 but he can sense them indicating to me. We've all been talking about like, you know, Kajima in Mads being, look, the scuttlebut being that you're already playing this game. It's going to tie in. It's going to have all the us work together.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I wonder if there's level to my Norman to Andy's Norman. If we were doing something together, how does it work? If I could be doing something when the game comes out, to level my character up to do more in it. Who knows? I mean, outside of the game, obviously.
Starting point is 00:15:19 he's a delivery man walking around they kept you know Hadeo kept putting up different things like give me your hand in life give me your hand in death give me your hand in flesh give me your hand in spirit
Starting point is 00:15:30 apparently I think playing into a whole bunch of different themes that'll be in there the most obvious it seemed throughout the trailer being that Norman had a photo that looked to be of his family of some respect whether it be his wife
Starting point is 00:15:40 or sister and then she was at the end there when they put up give me your hand in spirit so I assume she's already died but they're trying to get back to her who the hell knows because nobody knows
Starting point is 00:15:48 what the fuck's happening in this game whatever the things touch they affect time yeah there was a lot of time of talk there right Nick what was the woman's name Lee Sudo for in she's from a bond movie
Starting point is 00:16:00 she's from a bond movie which she's done a bunch of films Mission Impossible too I believe right she was the villain in a ghost protocol the Dubai one or Abu Dhabi no she wasn't a villain I think she died in the first part of it I think she was the one that died in the record store
Starting point is 00:16:13 Oh okay Weapon X-29 says what if the trophy level affected your death straining character I'd fucking beat it day one. I don't know. I don't speak French. Yeah, she was there and there was talk of time, right? Where at some point when Norman at the very end was getting ready to move out, and I guess Norma's name, the character's name is Sam, by the way.
Starting point is 00:16:31 When he was getting ready to move out, the guy over the radio was like, you'll come back, but there'd be a huge crater and everything would be fucked up or whatever. Okay. And then we had a weird thing of the woman eating a bug going on a crypto bug a, a crypto bug a day keeps the time flows or something that effect away. So yeah, there's something going on with time and what's going on. Earth is keeping you grounded maybe. His little thing looking at all these. It's just so weird. And I just fucking, I'm here for Kojima to be weird with me, man. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Like the, this fucking little flapping thing is just, obviously we saw that last year. But it, it gives me such a like Ridley Scott vibe. Um, I don't know, man. I, I, I am totally into this mind fuck of a sci-fi game. Yeah, really into it. Me too. Yeah, we'll see how it comes along and does it. Yeah. I feel like this is not going to be a popular take. This was by far, the least into death training I've ever been. Seeing the stuff. And I know this is the first time we've seen gameplay at all or anything from it. But I'm like,
Starting point is 00:17:26 it seems kind of boring. Seems like not much is happening. And for all the sci-fi stuff, I'm like, I liked the weirdness of Kojima being in a grounded situation like Metal Gear. Him being weird with sci-fi stuff, I'm watching this trail. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:17:41 I'm a little worried. It's not going to come together. Too weird for me. That like, nobody's going to understand this. There is going to be. No actual plot. At least with Metal Gear, you can follow it through and be like,
Starting point is 00:17:51 there's some weird things. Chat, big time behind you? But don't you think this is the first time we've seen it? And don't you think that this is like typical Kojima? We're like, yeah, we're going to show you the walking thing. And that's going to be maybe 20% of the game. Yeah, there's more game than just delivering bodies and babies. But the other 80 hours is going to be also such a crazy shit.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Yeah. I don't know. The first time I am concerned about this game. Interesting. We'll keep our finger on that pulse. I'm still in, but I'm in, but I'm in. I'm still in too. I love the Gima.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I trust it. I don't know. way like that. Up next was Neo 2. Short trailer. Coey Tecmo. Get on, man. Team Ninja. Fucking cool. Yeah, it's back. Let's rip some horns off our heads. All right, cool. Neo 2. And then it was Spider-Man to close out the show. Spidey and his cop friend whose name I can never remember because I haven't played the game. Once I play the game, I'll remember it. Taking a helicopter ride out to the raft where Electro is causing all sorts of shenanigans,
Starting point is 00:18:40 letting all the bad guys out. We get some amazing gameplay and over the course of it. Electro, Rhino, Scorpion, Vulture, all team. up to take down Spidey. A lot of cool swinging, a lot of cool mechanics. I can't wait for this game. The gadgets were awesome. The combat looks so good. Right. Oh my God. So everything about that, I'm like I'm so stoked. I'm so happy. It's so close. And I feel like they did a great job of giving us enough reasons to be even more hype than we already were. Yeah. Like I, we predicted going in that they were going to show some villains. I feel like they did a great job of it of not blowing too much of their load. But showing there's like, no, there was a lot in this game. This is going
Starting point is 00:19:16 to be the Spider-Man Arkham that we expected. And like the transitions of from the fighting to running up the wall to popping out into the next thing, swinging over there. That's all really impressive. I love the just cinematic moments that it seems like the game is going to present us. I love the way that the trailer ended of just like, hey, there's more to come.
Starting point is 00:19:33 I have no idea what that is. Like, I didn't expect to see you. Who is it? Yeah, it's you. Yeah. Like you can't see him. There was yellow light, but that could have been electric. Oh, yeah. People people were calling out an Iron Man. Of course, I hold the eye hole throwing. It could be miles from rails. I think they used it. I don't know why
Starting point is 00:19:48 it would be all that light. A evil miles? No, he's there to save him, I think. I don't know. Who the fuck knows what's going on? Yeah, it just, there just seems to be like a playground of moves in this world. I love it. And gadgets, obviously. He was so fucking cool. He was using web blossom. It looked like as a main gadget throughout that, so that was cool. Ah, and then
Starting point is 00:20:04 the show ended, and then afterwards they announced this Daracine game. It's a new game from Japan Studios and from software for PlayStation VR. That's pretty much all you know, so there's not much to it. But that was the conference or the Sony showcase. Yeah, I had a great time, man. I thought it was a lot of fun. I thought so many of the games looked potentially amazing. Some of the games looked potentially amazing. And some of the
Starting point is 00:20:24 games looked really great. I don't think there was any real like, I don't like how this looks. Yeah, that was the biggest thing for me is I felt like all of them again, we're like, okay, cool. This is, yes, I want this kind of gameplay. Yes, I want to see what this is. Even if I don't, and it's like a black ops thing. It's like, cool, you're in and out or whatever. And I don't mean like I hate black ops. I mean, just like, I got no attachment to black ops. Control seems to be like my sort of sleeper hit where I was not expecting it. I wasn't really keeping up with what remedy was up to. So seeing that game really,
Starting point is 00:20:52 really kind of surprised me. I can't wait for it. I don't have confirmation on this, but looking to the chat earlier, I saw some people saying control is not exclusive. It is everywhere. I believe that, yeah. I think so.
Starting point is 00:21:02 After Remedy, you know, coming off of, I'm sure at the end there, they're like, man, exclusivity sucks. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:21:07 with the exception of the paycheck. Now, you guys have to vote Xbox above Sony, so you're not Sony fanboys. You know that. So, so many ponies. Before we get into the ranking of the conferences, I just want to say, man, there's so many things we did not see this year. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:21:19 That felt like such true. And no Avengers. No Rocksteady at all? Rock City is still the question this year. Like, man, man, we all just fucking shocked. We didn't get any Avengers stuff. No Final Fantasy 7 remake, which I know sounds like, well, duh. Square had a conference, man.
Starting point is 00:21:32 And if it wasn't going to be there, like I expected to see at least an update it. Yeah. Yeah. Didn't expect the Kingdom Hearts at three conferences, but. Hey, man. Here it is. Everyone's excited. It's finally fucking.
Starting point is 00:21:43 fucking done. They'll just give it out to everybody and be done. But yeah, man, it's really weird, really weird. But all right, rank it it did it. Hold on one second. I just want to get something. Yeah, I want to see if... No Avengers what the fuck. I won't... Jackie Duce says rock study at Nintendo.
Starting point is 00:21:59 I won the bet. Can you fucking imagine? I won the bet. Two dollars, dude. Final Fantasy remake is fucked. Okay. You want to rank on? I don't think so. Yeah, let's rank them. So then, ladies and gentlemen, to bring you up to speed in where we are so far. Remember, we do a show called MCU interview, now X-Men in review
Starting point is 00:22:16 where we rank all the movies in a franchise. We thought we would rank all the press conferences in an E3 this year. So right now, number five, the worst normal combat is EA. Oh yeah. Number four, square. Number three, Bethesda, number two, Ubisoft, number one, Xbox.
Starting point is 00:22:35 I put Sony up top. I easily say Sony's number one. As great, not God tier. No, yeah, exactly. I agree. Why is Sony number one to you guys? What do you grading on because here's the thing right look back at Xbox 50 games 18 exclusives 15 world premieres a new halo
Starting point is 00:22:51 a new gears yep announcement of five studios that are all of them are all their own this is totally personal preference these are games that I care about more really like you know I I care about the new Hideo Kojima game I care about
Starting point is 00:23:07 fucking Spider-Man I care about fucking Spider-Man you care about fucking him you too I'm good man tender lover yeah I do think I was really shocked to control too that was kind of a neat surprise sure I put it above there just because I I never really during the Xbox presser was I like holy fucking shit watching a trailer I never felt like that intense moment like I did with The Last of Us or even through
Starting point is 00:23:29 Spider-Man just kind of being blown away by the visuals and just every I love Spider-Man dude I love the Last of Us I love what naughty dog brings to the table I love death stranding so that's why they win for me Tim from a presentation standpoint I feel like they really dropped the ball for agreed the first the start, 25 minutes or whatever it is. The rest of it I do think is exactly what I want. Here's the weird thing about it, right? Is that I feel like they could have gotten around that if they would have said.
Starting point is 00:23:54 We're not doing, we're going to do the pre-show in the mid-shy. There's not a pre-show. There's a main event followed by, uh, uh, uh, there would have been, there's a way to message it that I'm too tired to do on the fly to where it would have been like, oh, we know they're going to have a huge pop and then a moment of it to wind down and switch things up. And I think we all would have been like, okay, cool. But yeah, watching it live, it was like, oh, what the fuck
Starting point is 00:24:15 Again, I think that if they were going to do that type of stuff, they should have had things planned and ready and had all the trailers that we saw. They should have been in between going to different sets. And that would have solved the problem for me. But yeah, no, that was a big snail pace. Did not like that at all. But once they got into the other room, I thought it was perfect exactly what I'm looking for from my conference. Very little talking. A lot of games.
Starting point is 00:24:36 A lot of demos, a lot of trailers, a lot of fun stuff. And big games, too. In terms of surprises, they brought it. Remake 2 was there. I mean way sooner than I think anyone. would have expected. Yeah. I think that rivals
Starting point is 00:24:47 of my Cry 5 equally in terms of height levels for me and surprise level. So that puts it at least in the same pace as Xbox. But then when you just look
Starting point is 00:24:56 at the games, it's like, all right, Halo Gears, it's amazing. We saw that both of them announced in the same year
Starting point is 00:25:01 at an Xbox conference. But really, gears we saw a bit of Halo we didn't see anything of. Yeah. And that reminds me of like last year with some of these games.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Like when last of us was first announced or whatever. It's like, yeah, it's a big deal. But now that we're seeing these games, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:25:14 these are real games and they look fucking awesome. Still no release dates. Yeah. But we don't have release dates for the other, for gears or Halo as well. So I want to play almost all of those games. So for me, it's easy.
Starting point is 00:25:26 It's PlayStation. Okay. I don't need to vote. You've already voted in, but my vote would have been for PlayStation. I agree with everything you're saying. I feel like Andy nails it the best where I feel like Xbox had a great conference, right? That's what I call it.
Starting point is 00:25:38 I know you. I think Xbox had the best pacing out of any, out of every, everybody like this is how you should do conference. Right. But, you know, if you put, if for some reason, like, Spider-Man was a cross-platform game and was in that game, I'd probably give it to Xbox. Xbox just felt like they had a straight line in terms of hype. And I think what you said, Andy, that there was no, you didn't have, watching Xbox, you didn't have the feelings you had watching PlayStation.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Cyberpunk had that a little bit for me. Yeah. Great trailer. But here's the thing. It's like, in this thing I know, is whatever. Cyberpunk was a trailer caught me off guard and I liked a lot at Xbox. Holy shit, that was great. I think that the remedy game here,
Starting point is 00:26:18 which name is escaping me right now, Control. I thought that, and I had gameplay in the trailer that looked, I was like, holy shit, I actually know what this game's gonna look like and what it's going to be,
Starting point is 00:26:26 which meant more to me than just having a cool trailer. You know what I mean? And then, you know, I know a lot of people when we have been fighting each other in our chat, talking about this already
Starting point is 00:26:34 while we are going before we even voted and it's like, oh, there's nothing new at PlayStation. Like, the gameplay was. You know what I mean? Like, that Spider-Man demo is new. Yeah, no, I know. I know.
Starting point is 00:26:43 I know. I think they're talking about their main exclusive gameplay. The Resident Evil remake was also I totally, again,
Starting point is 00:26:50 like, this is the one where I was the most like, holy shit in watching last of a slackjaw of like this game
Starting point is 00:26:55 looks fucking amazing. Yeah, I think PlayStation's number one. Good time to be a fucking gamer. We're all winners. We're all winners. Ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:27:04 We're all winners, chat. You can calm down. You can calm down, guys. Oh, man. Oh, man. Well,
Starting point is 00:27:12 there we go. There it is. Well, there it is. Nick, what do you think? Oh, I mean, the games they show were amazing. Yeah, by far the best conference. Out of the ones that I saw and or paid attention to, for sure. I'm just sad that they didn't have the level of hype coming out of it that I had wanted.
Starting point is 00:27:27 But whatever, who cares? It's a conference. It served its purpose. Everyone's going to rip out all the trailers and gameplay footage anyway, and that's all that's going to matter. It's not over, though. It's not. Tomorrow. Nintendo.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Clements is still talking. I bet it's still happening. I bet the show is still going on. I saw a lot of people calling out that they were clipping back and forth. They saw different people playing different stuff. Who fan just a message, who woke Nick up? Yeah, tomorrow at 8.30 a.m. Is that the pre-show?
