Look on the bright side.



So Sony actually isn’t doing anything for E3? I knew they were skipping doing a conference but I thought they’d at least have a Nintendo Direct like presentation.

Yeah, they were apparently serious about not wanting to do the dog and pony show of E3 if they didn't have anything they wanted to show.

Sony was smart to drop Death Stranding last week because the buzz was mostly positive while all the buzz around E3 presentations is going to be mostly hot takes and meh reactions

$10/month is still not unreasonable for game pass, by the time they've added to it over the coming months, but it's a bit expensive right now compared to EA Access which I think is $5/month and also has indie games

the best plan would be to pay for one month and cancel whenever you want to play a few games on there

Game Pass has Hatoful Boyrfriend

Sony: We're pulling out of E3 this year because it's a very costly endeavor and we don't want to spend the time and money unless we have something important to show you.

Microsoft: We bought a rock concert's worth of pyro, paid a guy to make us a car made out of Lego, and constructed a Gears of War stage beneath the actual stage which we use to imprison WWE wrestlers in.

Sorry, I was wrong



The pass will be 9.99 a month, but during the beta right now, it's 4.99. Do we know how long the beta will last?

Apparently you have to update the store to get beta price. And it might be region specific.

Saying this was the best part of the ms conference isn't hyperbole. The man is amazing and somehow doesn't seem to know it, or at least doesn't flaunt it. He looked shy up there at all the love he was getting.

I don't think Sony has anything to show other than Last of Us 2 and Death Stranding. Their other developers are likely very busy trying to put together PS5 launch games and this isn't helped by how many studios Sony has shut down or lost since the glory days of PS3 where they had a crazy amount of exclusives. Right now they just don't have many teams and with Microsoft showing a bunch of third party stuff there likely wasn't really anything left for Sony to put a show together with. It's weird to see Microsoft expanding their first party studios at such a rapid pace while Sony has continually shrunk year after year. They're going to need to start investing in new teams and expanding again because while what they show is good, it's very rare that we see something new and past E3s (and PSX shows) have essentially been "Hey, here's more footage of the same games you've been seeing for years now". If they could also get some teams to make some multiplayer games to justify PS+ that would also be great because they've gone way too hard on singleplayer-only games in my opinion, although Bloodborne is probably gonna be my game of the generation when all's said and done.
