Sony wins E3 2014: Microsoft gambled on games, and lost
2014-06-10 14:24:58| Extremetech
At its press conference last night, Sony casually sauntered on stage, slipped its hands nonchalantly into its pockets, offered up an expressive shrug, and won E3 2014. Microsoft and its legion of fans could do nothing but look on with envy as Sony unveiled hit after hit for the PS4. For all of Microsoft's talk about games, the only platform exclusive that might be a critical success -- Halo 5 -- was reduced to a 60-second-long pre-rendered clip. Sony, on the other hand, essentially showed off everything a gamer could want at E3: A new white PS4; a release date for PS Now and PlayStation TV; more details about the Morpheus VR headset; the beautiful art game No Man's Sky; and actual in-game/in-engine footage from three massive exclusives (LittleBigPlanet 3, Uncharted 4, and Metal Gear Solid 5).
