Reaction Curtain Closes on Ill-Tempered E3 2017
Forgettable show has been feisty
Well, this one won’t live long in the memory, will it? E3 2017 has been fine, but it’s been far from vintage, and we’re struggling to think of any one announcement or theme that we’ll remember in the days to come – yet alone years.

Talking Point Is PSX Now More Important to Sony Than E3?
Priorities may be shifting

Soapbox Publishers Can't Bloody Win When It Comes to E3
Ramsey's sick of the hypocrites
I write about video games for a living, so I'm used to seeing people overreact on the internet. I've grown accustomed to seeing people spew hilarious hyperbole on a regular basis - hell, I've done it myself - but there's something about E3 that rubs me the wrong way. Namely, the annual Los Angeles event brings out...

Reaction What Sony's E3 2017 Press Conference Got Wrong
And how it can easily fix things next year
After several barnstorming E3 and PlayStation Experience press conferences, last night’s E3 2017 showcase felt like a bit of a let-down. To be clear, it absolutely wasn’t bad by any stretch of the imagination: God of War and Spider-Man seem super exciting; there’s loads to loo

Reaction Xbox Is Still Two Steps Behind PlayStation
Microsoft's surmounted the power gap but forgotten the software
Xbox fans waited a year for last night’s press conference. That’s not a slight, but it needs to be put into context: there’s been no PlayStation Experience equivalent over the past 12 months from the folks in Redmond; the company certainly didn’t hold any media briefings at the...

Ever since Jack Tretton dropped the mic in 2013, there’s no question that Sony’s been the king of the E3 press conference.
