I notice Naughty Dog seem to be inspired by MGSV's gameplay I'm seeing quite a few specific animation/gameplay similarities come through in the TLOU gameplay, which is smart of them, MGSV is still like one of the best playing games out there so taking notes from that is a good move
I’ll always find it strange how anyone can watch the TLOU2 trailer and not have their jaw on the floor the entire time. The most impressive trailer to come out of E3 imo, if the game plays exactly how it was showcased, it’s going to be even better than the original.
Hey i recognize you the guy with the Garbage Shirt, i remember you were the guy that made the Test for Tekken 5 back in 2005 in Gamespot, and i though it was an awesome test and even the best Test on any video game website of back then.
Conference pacing was super weird, Death Stranding and Last of Us were both a little disappointing, although both were visual outstanding. Ghost of Tsushima, Spiderman, and Control looked amazing. Also I didn't expect Nioh2 to be announced so soon.
Thanks for the videos but just like the pod casts...i can't hear this stuff if I'm doing anything other then sitting around with head phones on. Please just bump up the overall volume.
It looks good, but man that gameplay also looks heavily scripted. I doubt it'll move that fluidly, and when you take that away, it just looks like Last of Us and that does nothing for me.
Thanks I'm aware. What I'm saying is, top to bottom, more Last of Us does nothing for me. Fidelity wise, it's nice. Final product won't look as good I don't think, but it showed well here.
It's almost like they've made a Last of Us game already and it's not hard to imagine what a sequel to that would be. Unless they have some huge sweeping gameplay changes to iterate on the original, which I doubt, it's just going to be more of something I don't like. Also go back and watch the original Last of Us demo and compare that to the final game. Not buying that it's going to look this good when they've done the scripted "like this, but not as cinematic" thing before.
A case of less is more for me. Nothing on the Xbox conference looked as exciting as Ghost, TLOU2 or RE2. As someone who really appreciated Sony’s first party software in the late PS3 days (when it seemed to offering them almost no advantage at all) its good to see that commitment to funding quality studios long term paying off in spades now.
The games they had on display looked amazing. Sony crushing it with the exclusives. So they "won" in that sense. But the show itself wasn't great. The pacing was terrible and that interlude they had after The Last of Us wasn't great at all.
Too bad patrick isn't still there but after I stopped gaming for a while I stopped listening to bombcast aswell, but it's nice to see the old and new crew going strong.
Jesus. Sony has lost the plot. No wonder people thought MS had a better presentation. Sony is now doing all the self-indulgent, non-game shit no one cares about that MS did around the X1 launch era.
I'm with Jeff. Death Stranding just seems increasingly lame to me, and a case of Kojima's ego being completely unleashed so he could make something with Hollywood people in it. There's the obvious caveat that it's early and we still don't fully understand what is going on, but all of the "gameplay" they showed looked very uncompelling.
EA 0/10, Microsoft 5/10, Bethesda 5/10, Square Enix 1/10, Ubisoft 5/10, Sony 6/10. Nintendo can show a screen grab of Prime 4 and they have this in the bag.
Microsoft was easily the best of what we've seen so far. They basically just showed games the entire time, 15 of which were exclusive, and most of those were coming to Game Pass. The rest of the shows have had so much in-between bullshit. This is the second year in a row MS has focused on almost nothing but games.
mrsmi1ey aye but from a personal point of view not one game on that show was of interest to me. Sony gave us Resident Evil 2 Remake, that was enough to get a 6. Every show thus far has been absolute shite though. Quite possibly the worst I can recall in my time. Nintendo still has a chance to save it though.
Neon Noir not fanboyism, mate. Just game preference. None of the games outside of DMC5 were of interest to me and even that game looked very awkward to my eye. The big hitters on Xbox traditionally do not appeal to me. I don't like Forza, Gears, Halo and co.
I love that Jeff was the only one who didn't flinch away when Norman Reedus pulled off his toenail. You know Jeff has been places and seen some shit.
SonicMegaKing anyone who’s heard Jeff talk about his hooligan days knows he’s seen some shit
Jeff fought in the Garfield Wars
Jeff is pure jadedness.
He used to work for Gamespot. Toenail torture probably seems tame in comparison...
Just look at that face
Watching over these again, in lockdown... i never knew id be able to relate to that stupid song so well
Thanks for all these videos. Truly the best way to experience E3.
“Don’t tell me what to do” from the crowd is highlight of the show
Conference starts at 14:10
MVP comment. You are the reason I scroll down
2:00 Vinnie finally exposed as a reptilian. All hail our new overlords..
1:04:39 ALEX BURNS DAN!!!
47:05 Instant Classic
Angel Rivera I cant even understand what he said
Rorie got a new huge monitor earlier this year and couldn't stop talking about it
This felt like a press conference in that it is a conference for the press
The most games I want to play, yet the worst conference this side of EA. The structure of this was just so bad.
Sorry we need to take an intermission to change venues before my next comment.
He was absolutely right - the conference was utter shit - yet it showed some great games. Everything between the footage was bloody awful.
Yeah, but what's more important, an entertaining 1 1/2 hour show, or a bevy of awesome titles you want to play?
Dan calling something aggressively dumb is kinda hilarious.
left-right audio channels are for sure swapped, noticeable once the last of us footage starts. Did Sony broadcast it that way? Oops!
I wish Mortal Kombat 11 was announced at E3 2018 Sony press conference.
I am so fucking ready for my yearly dose of Adam Boyes, Dave Lang, and John Vignocchi.
All right. Good E3. Sorry it's over. Nothing more to see. Let's go home.
God I hope they have time to change that “dazed” effect that happened at least 3 times during spiderman gameplay. Way too over the top.
Awesome combo of tambura and banjo!
they cranked the volume to 11 for the kissing scene in the last of us so you can hear all the sloppy mouth smacking
As weird an idea as moving everyone from one place to another for the presentation, that Last of Us venue was absolutely beautiful. Great atmosphere.
1:01:43 moment of the year
1:34:12 Spider-man definitely just killed that guy.

38:42 laughed very hard at this part

alex always has the most cricial shirts, i love HUM and Kowloon Walled City

Its venom at the end of the spider man trailer
I guess they spent all their money on exclusives so they can only afford a tent.
wtf is with all these musical scores that Sony seem to be loving these past few years?
and they never came back ever again
Sony's conference was a fucking trainwreck
I was looking very forward to Sony’s press conference but man, not there best show. Last of Us looks very good though.
It looks good, but man that gameplay also looks heavily scripted. I doubt it'll move that fluidly, and when you take that away, it just looks like Last of Us and that does nothing for me.
It is literally called the last of us part 2.
I am not surprised it looks like the last of us.
Thanks I'm aware. What I'm saying is, top to bottom, more Last of Us does nothing for me. Fidelity wise, it's nice. Final product won't look as good I don't think, but it showed well here.
So you're assuming what the final product will be by only watching a 7 minute snippet of gameplay? Nice dude.
It's almost like they've made a Last of Us game already and it's not hard to imagine what a sequel to that would be. Unless they have some huge sweeping gameplay changes to iterate on the original, which I doubt, it's just going to be more of something I don't like.

48:00 theres no way in hell this wont get a visual downgrade before release.
Alex, the background of story is already there, you need to played game to knowing the story.
The games they had on display looked amazing. Sony crushing it with the exclusives. So they "won" in that sense. But the show itself wasn't great. The pacing was terrible and that interlude they had after The Last of Us wasn't great at all.
Your recording equipment has problems. Artifacts and the like almost immediately after the video starts.
Tsushima looks great! Unfortunately, you gotta play it with the PS4 controller...
Registerd Nerd dude i got some bad news for you.. you have to play ALL sony games with that controller :(
Subpar!!!!
But STILL no actual Tenchu :S
Too bad patrick isn't still there but after I stopped gaming for a while I stopped listening to bombcast aswell, but it's nice to see the old and new crew going strong.

That was one of the worst E3 main console shows shows I’ve seen.
Do they even like the vidya? Geez.
Nothing seems to excite them from any conference, they seem so much more cynical than they use to be.
Hiroko Takashiro Agreed, I assume they've been in the game too long. Seen it all, done it all. Probably time to pass the torch.
are you new here? they’ve been cynical for years now!
These guys are so out of touch with games...they stumble on information a lot and hardly know characters from big games

SufamiDan - I own a X and a Pro and MS conference was way more appealing to me.
Neon Noir not fanboyism, mate. Just game preference. None of the games outside of DMC5 were of interest to me and even that game looked very awkward to my eye. The big hitters on Xbox traditionally do not appeal to me. I don't like Forza, Gears, Halo and co.
