It was Friday, easily the worst gaming event i've ever seen. 95% of the show was mobile/pc indie games that everyone has already completely forgotten about.
Friday was everything about why a PC gaming focussed future will destroy this industry irreversibly

The PC sphere is fucking begging for Xbox, Nintendo, Sony to be day 1 so they actually have good games to play

Fucking Joke

Well said, it's the same with the "PC gaming show", it's always the most lacklustre event of the year with nothing memorable


Look at the dislikes 😂 idk why people tune into this every year and expect anything good. And 95% of the big 3rd party multiplatform games wouldn't be financially viable without the sales they get from PS.

Imagine believing this.
Before, when consoles were consoles and PC was a PC, the two lived in harmony, with the odd shit-flinging contest over graphics and hardware.
Now that consoles are PC's and the PC manufacturers are chasing cryptocurrency and maximum-profit Pc-in-a-box consoles, both industries have gone to shit.

Give me RTS's, RPG's and FPS's on PC. Action, platforms, racing, fighting games on console. This multi-console, multi-device, multi-platform slop is fucking terrible for everyone.

Will 100% be filled with empty promises, future PlayStation games and upcoming flops but can't be any worse than Sony event or Summer Game Fest.

I hope Phil Spencer will use the opportunity to apologize for all his terrible work and announce he is retirement.

It's pretty likely this time around though and I do hope they come to PS as they were originally supposed to. Or at least PC since these were one of the few Xbox games that never got ported to PC.

Exactly, every Xbox show in the last decade has sucked, this will be no different. It will just look relatively decent since SGF and SOP were so abysmal.
