Yeah, it's kind of disappointing that they didn't really show anything that people weren't already expecting. Something like rumble controller announcement, new Final Fantasy 13 stuff, new major demos in the store, an unexpected game announcement. But, well, they didn't fuck up and easily had the most solid presentation this year, I stand by that. And that's already a huge accomplishment, considering Sony's recent track record.

Yes, this is what I'm talking about. If they had come out with rumble or some new games that I'm interested in and/or didn't expect I would have liked it more. The conference was solid but I liked the Nintendo conference more because of the unexpected new announcements. I actually came into the Sony conference about halfway through and was pissed because I was afraid I had missed a rumble or some other cool announcement. I didn't really miss that much. Sony's conference while solid wasn't the same exciting feeling that I really like to get out of these conferences. Had they come out with a Team Ico trailer, some rumble news, and anything else new and unexpected I'd have been alright Sony you've got it together. From their conference today it's just a things you've already known or expected yet to come and problems still not solved. Problems like rumble are the same problems I have with Nintendo. They still haven't fixed their online plan and they didn't address it properly. They beat around the bush with statistics I don't care about and that don't effect me. Not acknowledging that people don't like Friends Codes and we want a better system is akin to Sony being mum about why their controllers don't have rumble in them/when controllers with rumble will be coming out/how or if current games that don't have rumble can be patched to have rumble/rumble rumble etc. It's not a complete failure to these conferences but these are the things I want solved by E3 conferences. They are issues that have been bitched over for MONTHS now so you gotta figure they have something working on it. I basically treat E3 conferences as addresses for current and future status.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
