Sony blew it out of the park with this one. Heavy focus on gameplay and nothing else. No gimmicks, no bullshit talk about movies. Just games and gameplay. Not sold on VR yet, but we'll see with time.

No gimmicks, no bullshit talk about movies. Though this bears repeating. (well other than VR which at this point IS a gimmick)

I don't know exactly.
As I said earlier, something that made me want to buy a PS4 right now.
Nothing they showed gave me that feeling. But as I said I was let down by all of the pressers I saw.

God Of War is all I wanted, God Of War is what I got. I'm happy.
Horizon looks badass. Death Stranding... is a name I'll have to get used to, but I'm intrigued as you can tell it's Kojima wanting to hold onto the ideas of Silent Hills but without getting Konami involved. I wish Guillermo Del Toro was involved with it as his creature design is second to none, but I understand him being leery of the entire industry at this point and not wanting to get involved before weighing all factors.
Days Gone.... another name I'm gonna have to get used to as I'll be calling it Days Gone By quite often by mistake. Looks awesome, I'm all in for it.
VR games... probably cool, but VR will be a long way off to me.
Resident Evil 7, could never get into the RE games, but I'll definitely give it a try.
Crash remasters... eh, palette cleansing games. I missed out on them when they first came out, so I might check them out on a sale.
Last Guardian... I have a feeling this game is gonna make me cry.
Infinite Warfare.... congratulations. I'm actually interested in a COD for the first time in forever... just for the campaign though.
Overall, pretty damn good showing for Sony. I got a lot of what I asked for, some new games to be excited for, and I really liked their no bullshit approach.

All I did was skim what they announced but I didn't see anything that really interests me. New God of War finally doing the Norse thing maybe but I'd be more interested if they'd ditch Kratos already.

Yup, opposite of how I heard Ubisoft's went down. Resident Evil and God of War 4 were this year's FF7 Remake, and there were some newer good looking games to boot.

Never really was a huge fan of Resident Evil, and I have absolutely 0 interest in the God of War series at this point.

Gotta be honest MS had the best presser this year for me. Showed me more games I am interested in and MS' push to put their console games on PC I think will have a more lasting and more overall positive effect on the industry than VR will. I'm still just not sold on VR gaming. And there's the little fact that most of the games MS covered actually have release dates or at least release windows. The only non-VR game Sony is publishing that they covered that is coming out this year is The Last Guardian. I'm frankly kind of getting tired of Sony doing that. They can't just keep going, "Here's a bunch of cool looking games that you won't get to play this year, and if you are lucky might come out next year and even then still be delayed a couple of times before finally coming out" and then let the multiplatform titles do the carrying for the system in the meantime. People go on and on about how the PS4 has the better lineup of exclusives, but you could have fooled me when they don't release the bloody things. Lastly, Days Gone looks generic as all hell from a gameplay standpoint(visually it is ace looking), and if that wasn't bad enough, it was the third or fourth(depends on if RE7 has zombies in it) zombie game shown this E3, and after Dead Rising 4 being shown in MS' conference I tuned out the rest of the zombie games. All that being said, though, Horizon had my favorite demo out of the press conferences. Next year I'll probably grab a PS4 thanks to Horizon and Persona 5.

Updated first post.
So unless something strange happens and it turns out to be a Nintendo exclusive, I guess we're not getting Red Dead Redemption 2?

Rockstar is built on street cred. They're a company that people put up a pedestal to a point where you could almost wonder if they look at the entire industry like "You need us, we don't need you."
Even games that fail to impress like Max Payne 3 and L.A. Noire still get a ton of positive press, and they're good... just not Rockstar good. If they want to announce something at E3, they'll announce it. But, they are very good about announcing things on their own terms. I could definitely see them going the GTA route if Red Dead is, in fact, the next game they will release..... something like leak a website that has leading pictures on it, that still don't say everything. Then a week or two later a date will appear on it, then on that date they'll post a teaser for Red Dead 2 an announce the date for the full trailer a few weeks later, because Rockstar absolutely loves to whet your appetite then take the bowl away before you have a chance to dig in until they deem a time appropriate to let you have it all.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Rockstar just sits not releasing anything for two or three years until GTA Online stops printing money.
I'd be disappointed, because GTA Online is crap and I want GTA 5 DLC or 6, a new Red Dead, and maybe at a reach a Bully or LA Noire sequel, but I could completely understand if they did that.

I swear rockstar said they would be at E3 Take-Two said they were going to be there in a big way. People assumed that meant Rockstar would have something, forgetting that Take-Two also owns 2K. They already showed off Mafia 3. More likely it's The Bioshock Collection, Ken Leavine's new game and Borderlands 3 will be showcased. Maybe even something with NBA and WWE 2K17.
