Ubisoft's unquestionably one of gaming's juggernauts, but did its press conference at E3 2016 impress? The publisher led with some of its biggest upcoming titles – Watch Dogs 2, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, and For Honor – but it also showcased South Park The Fractured but Whole and a new extreme sports title called Steep. An impressive selection.
But was the French firm's show up to scratch? Which of its titles impressed you, and which could you have done without? Share your thoughts on the show in the comments section below, and don't forget to register your vote in our community poll.

Had game of the show so far (South Park TBH) with what appears to be a pretty sweet deal getting TSOT for free on preorder. The rest was..well..
Good, South Park was fantastic, but way too long.
As always nothing from Ubisoft that interest me.
The only things I wanted from Ubi was a new Trials and Beyond Good and Evil 2.
1 of 2 is enough to make me happy. I'm downloading Trials Blood Dragon right now.
Watch Dogs 2 seemed lame. Steep looked nice.
It wasn't great, but at least better than EA and Bethesda.
@kyleforrester87 ahahahaha laughing until Ubi release a game without bizarre glitches.
The conference was "ok" I guess, it was certainly helped by EA and Bethesda's pathetic efforts last night.
No Rayman?? That was the one thing I was hoping for :/
Watch dogs 2 doesn't look as bad as expected, if they used better songs like Death Grips' Hacker or something it probably would have been better
The content was good, it was just very poorly paced.
Steep is my game of the show, thus far. Really excited for an open world game that isn't about shooting or driving.
Again, there was just nothing special. At all. Tbh, as someone who's never owned a playstation or xbox until I got the PS4 last year, the best game so far has been Skyrim Special Edition. Yep. A remaster is my favourite game so far. At this rate, nintendo will have the best conference by a mile.
South Park is going to be amazing
The show draggggggggged.
Presentation was good but nothing revealed that I wanted so it has to go down as 'very poor'
In some ways that good because it keeps my money in my pocket - only for Sony to take it all with the Neo and its games....
Aisha Tyler,.......thumbs up IMO.
@Wesker Steep does look nice and finally one game without massive cursing, violence and blood and gore. Most hardcore gamers want like Steep but I am glad to get this type of game. I only wish there will be some type of single player story mode instead of only co op with others and just doing the best tricks. Having a leisure mode is cool but I also want a deep story mode for motivation to keep playing the game. I am glad its coming out this yr.
I want to play Watch Dogs 2 but we will see how to see with reviews first.
Did Ubi just "leak" ps4 backwards compatibility? There's no mention of a Stick of Truth remaster, yet they said it would be free for all pre orders, which works for One and PC, but what about ps4? Anyone else have their conspiracy hat on?
Like EA and Bethesda, Ubisoft had no games. None of these publishers have anything ready aside from a few titles that are coming later this year or early next. So much padding it's unreal.
This had the opposite problem to EA, where's they didn't show enough, Ubi showed too much.
Another thing I've noticed with E3 so far is lack of new game announcements, off the top of my head I can only think of
Quake Champions
Fe
State of Decay 2
Dead Rising 4 (which maybe on PS4)
Gwent
Forza Horizon 3
Steep
Star trek VR
And Grow Up, not many considering we've had 4 conferences
@DrClayman Well Stick of Truth isn't on the store or on PS Now in the UK so who knows.
@Swiket The treehouse will focus on Zelda though, which we know next to nothing about, so if Zelda impressed enough, then it will at least be better than EA's, Bethesda's and Uni's conference IMO in that it actually will make me want to buy a new game. Still, it is Nintendo, so some other disaster is bound to happen
For Honor & South Park were the highlights for me. Everything else, meh.
South Park is going to be amazing. Stick of Truth was surprisingly very good.
I must have really low expectations. I'm enjoying E3, but perhaps it's because I'm just hoping to see updates on new games that are coming out, rather than having my mind blown by everyone who even thinks to walk on the stage?
South Park is probably my favorite game of E3 so far, but other than that Ubisoft's conference was pretty meh.
Was just ok for me. WD2 is a def buy personally, perhaps not day one. Wildlands looked interesting. Have never found South Park even remotely funny so that didn't do much for me. Pretty much everything else want really wasn't my cup of tea. The presentation and pacing were atrocious however. Show could've been less than an hour.
@adf86 the big worry is that people will just flock to PC with a couple of years like this. What's the point of staying on console with so little fresh stuff? Come on Sony, you need to smash it out of the park.
Better than yesterday but still not great..South Park,Trials,Grown up and Ghost Recon where the game's of ubisofts conference.For Honor and Watchdogs 2 just looked boring.Steep did look nice but i've no interest in the game as i'am not into sport game's.I liked the idea of the Star Trek game you are going to need friends with the VR headset to play it.
