Was PlayStation's Paris Conference Their Saving Grace?

Hosts Joseph and Sean Capri, talk about their overall thoughts on The
PlayStation Conference at Paris Games week.The guys talk about whether or not Sony did a good job showing a bright future for VR. They discuss the need for release dates on titles like God of War. Whether Sony should stop showing Last of Us Part 2 footage. Lastly, was this conference even necessary?

Saving grace from what? The PlayStation brand already had immensive hype and this conference just added even more of what was already there. PSX in turn will do the same in December

[freshslicepizza]

E3 wasn't exactly stellar.

[andrewsquall]

Maybe because they knew they were going to impress people even more at TGS, PGW, VGAs AND PSX for the rest of the year.

What console's games do YOU think we are all going to be talking about and will be getting massive hits on Youtube with brand new trailers and gameplay in the months of Sep, Oct, Nov and Dec? Exactly.

Neither was the competition's. Heck, Ubisoft coming out ahead should tell you how lackluster console maker conferences were.

But, still, saving grace from a company that just payed highest profits since the 90s due in main part because of the gaming division?

[jlove4life]

But it was better than the other two consoles E3

[Dark_Knightmare2]

Might not of been stellar like the previous two e3s but how could it when the previous two e3s are some of the best ever. The fact is with e3 and now pgw with psx still to come Sony has killed it this year especially compared to the competition

[TheVetOfGaming]

Neither is your general attitude when it comes to anything Sony. Quite pathetic the way you are on here.

OT - Sony are clearly doing fine. This article is nonsense.

[AnubisG]

I wasn't blown away by this years E3 Sony conference like I was with 2016 but it was not bad at all. Sony showed off games which is what matters on a video GAMING console. Something MS needs to learn very, very fast. We need competition otherwise the whole thing stagnates.

[zackeroniii]

the ps4 and sony definitely needed saving i mean...minecraft 4k...

[Elda]

Neither was MS/XBO E3 efforts.

[freshslicepizza]

I thought Nintendo was the best this year at E3 and they didn't even have a proper conference. They are really the only company who doesn't rely on third party to push their hardware and pad the length of their presentation.

Sony finally got caught with all the delays in the past so they didn't have much new to show. Microsoft pulled what Sony did in the past and used indies as their big selling point.

What's good about Sony is they don't concentrate all their efforts on E3 like Microsoft does. I'm beginning to think Nintendo's approach is rather genius. Just have Direct videos throughout the year.

[GamingSinceForever]

Sony could go an entire year without showing anything and they'd still have more in the pipeline exclusive wise than the competition. #Fact

[Jaypi03]

I agree with you but the masses will probably down vote you Sony's E3 conference was downright disappointing but of course people will defend it. Even with little games shown there still could've been a better conference.

[WickedLester]

Only because they showed mostly what we already knew about....which was a lot. That doesn't change the fact that Sony is absolutely embarrassing the competition when it comes to both quality and quantity of content that's available and is GOING to be available in 2018.

[Abnor_Mal]

Again I have to ask, why do many PlayStation fans take the bait that his guy always sets out. This article was NOT about E3 but PGW. Yet everyone allows this guy to change the topic at hand to something off topic. Neither Sony nor PlayStation needed a saving grace because for the entire generation PlayStation has been doing exceptionally well comparatively in regards to its closest so called "competition". The Paris confrence was an excellent show introducing brand new games for the PS4 family of systems, gave more insight to exclusives that are already in development, and showed that they were indeed in it for the long haul with PSVR.

Please stop responding to this guy when he post nonsense trying to detract from anything positive in regards to PlayStation. Personally I would not and have not even given him an agree or disagree because his words mean nothing to me as I see clearly what he is about. Lets not feed the stray curs that roam PlayStation articles or they will keep coming back and bring others to be fed by your responses.

so wasn't Xbox.. Sony on purpose did hold back alot of games and focused more on whats coming in 2018 in E3 and they were good...

[shuvam09]

Yeah dude...
It was Sony doing Sony things...
Mogaems...

[AspiringProGenji]

As if they need saving...

[Relientk77]

It was an epic conference, they don't need saving though clearly.

Excited for Ghost of Tsushima and Concrete Genie, great looking new games

[TGG_overlord]

I don't know about the "saving" part, but I had a blast with the conference ;)

[Jamaicangmr]

WTF?! Who comes up with these articles? Saving grace from what exactly?

[andrewsquall]

It was E3 Part II. PSX is still coming. Hell, even the VGAs will have new announced 3rd party games that are going to be on PS4.

[Poobz]

Certainly wasn't the Vita's.

[AmUnRa]

Where not talking about the Vita. Whe are talking about the PS4 and the PGW.
Off topic.🙄

[Chaosdreams]

The clickbait title hurts my soul.

[yomfweeee]

Jesus christ, is this a joke? Saving grace? They're dominating the competition. Setting company profit records.

[solideagle]

saving grace? lol Journalism at its best :)

[Xenophon_York]

The writers who seemingly make a living off of these Bat-Boy fictional tabloid-style articles need to be cut off. Here's a start:

joseph Moran

He's the one who wrote this. I'll be doing my best at avoiding his instigative journalism.

[AnubisG]

Yeah, this adticle is...uhhhh.
Seriously? You are posting this article right after the one that talked about the fact that they are making the most profit ever since the late 90's?

[Elda]

The so called journalist evidently has jokes.

[dparente74]

By reshowing the e3 conferece? Plus the new sp game wbich is awesome.

[GamingSinceForever]

Saving grace meaning as if MS was closing the gap?

I don't think that Sony should even worry about Nintendo because the Switch is something totally different.

[T2X]

Oh please with this crap. It was pretty cool. Saving grace? As if they need saving. It was a mini e3 for Sony fans. The upcoming stuff looks awesome. And why on earth would they not show TLOU2 trailers? Show away. Lol.

[peppeaccardo]

Sony has a show because they have games to show ... Microsoft on the other hand ...

[AmUnRa]

This: was the PGW saving Sonys grace? That is b*llsh*t.
If i do remember well the PS4 is killing the XboxOne in sales AND exclusive games.
He is wrong, he better could ask :"Will the XboxOneX saving the XboxOne grace?"
Now that is a intresting question.😎

[Ceaser9857361]

OP, needs to know whats the meaning of Saving Grace? I mean what made him think that way... seriously!! PS4 is winning almost all the month ...
