All of E3 2017's press conferences are done and dusted, which can only mean one thing: we need to see whether the Push Square community correctly predicted what would happen during the Los Angeles event. Last week, before everything began, we launched our third annual E3 quiz. Consisting of 30 different yes or no questions, over 220 registered users took part.

As always, it's now time to run through each individual question and see whether you lot got it spot on or dead wrong. Good luck!

1. Will Sony open its E3 2017 press conference with God of War?

Your answer: No (68%)

CORRECT

Nice, you're off to a good start! 68 per cent of the community said that God of War wouldn't open the show - and it didn't. We got Uncharted: The Lost Legacy instead.

2. Will Death Stranding show up at Sony's press conference in any capacity?

Your answer: Yes (51%)

WRONG

You've been let down by just a handful of votes here. Death Stranding didn't show up at Sony's press conference at all.

3. Will Bloodborne 2 be announced during Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (60%)

WRONG

Oh dear, it appears as though you lot expected just a bit too much of Sony's presser. Bloodborne 2 was nowhere to be seen, sadly.

4. Will a Monster Hunter game be announced for PS4 at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: No (51%)

WRONG

No, not again! You believed in Bloodborne 2, but you didn't believe in Monster Hunter World. Dammit, Capcom!

5. Will third party games take up more than 15 minutes of Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (85%)

WRONG

Ouch, Sony's sucker punched the lot of you there. There were third party games at Sony's show, but most of them opted for brief trailers. Add it all together, and you get around 12 minutes of third party content. Close!

6. Will Knack 2 get a release date at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (71%)

WRONG

This is going to seem harsh but we have to stick to the rules. Knack 2 did get a release date at E3, but not during Sony's actual conference. It was announced at the publisher's pre-show. Sorry!

7. Will Sony reveal a PS4 Pro bundle at its press conference?

Your answer: Yes (67%)

WRONG

No bundles, no sales, no deals, no discounts, no hardware, nothing.

8. Will Sucker Punch's latest project be announced at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (91%)

WRONG

Yikes. To be fair, even we were almost certain Sucker Punch's project would finally be revealed, but nope. The wait continues...

9. Will we see any kind of additional Horizon: Zero Dawn content at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (75%)

CORRECT

Finally, the losing streak is over. Horizon: Zero Dawn got an expansion reveal during Sony's presser.

10. Will Sony outline an overhauled PlayStation Plus at its press conference?

Your answer: No (72%)

CORRECT

Your cynicism has paid off - Sony didn't even mention PlayStation Plus during its show.

11. Will Sony mention the Vita at least once during its press conference?

Your answer: No (59%)

CORRECT

Your cynicism has paid off once again. There was no mention of the Vita whatsoever.

12. Will Dreams appear at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (55%)

WRONG

Bloody Media Molecule's done it again! Dreams is still missing in action.

13. Will Sony spend more than 10 minutes of its press conference talking about PlayStation VR?

Your answer: Yes (59%)

WRONG

You were so close with this one. Add all the VR trailers up and you don't quite get ten minutes. Very unlucky.

14. Not counting montage videos, will Red Dead Redemption 2 show up at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: No (51%)

CORRECT

Phew! A tiny amount of No voters have saved you there. Red Dead Redemption 2 was nowhere to be seen at E3 2017.

15. Will the words 'Crash Bandicoot' be said more than 3 times during Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (73%)

WRONG

Poor old Crash wasn't even mentioned once during Sony's conference - nevermind three times.

16. Not counting montage videos, will a Final Fantasy game be shown during Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (68%)

CORRECT

Oooh, we feel like you lot got lucky on this one. The incredibly stupid looking Monster of the Deep: Final Fantasy XV got a PlayStation VR trailer during Sony's presser.

17. Will we see a Last of Us 2 gameplay demo at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (51%)

WRONG

Argh, the vote was so close, too! The Last of Us: Part II didn't show up at Sony's show in any capacity.

18. Will Spider-Man get a 2017 release date at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (75%)

WRONG

We can't fault you lot for your optimism, but it's starting to cost you precious points. Spider-Man got a vague 2018 release window during Sony's conference.

19. Will God of War get a 2017 release date at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: No (55%)

CORRECT

That's more like it - let the doubt flow through you! God of War got an 'early 2018' release window during the event.

20. Will Sony announce more than one new property during its press conference?

Your answer: Yes (86%)

CORRECT

Your faith in Sony has finally been rewarded. Sony announced a couple of new properties - both of them for PlayStation VR.

21. Will Bethesda announce a new property at its press conference?

Your answer: Yes (77%)

WRONG

We were with you on this one - we were almost sure we'd see the unknown project that Bethesda's been working on, but the publisher had nothing truly new to show.

22. Will Ubisoft's press conference feature at least one cringe-inducing moment?

Your answer: Yes (93%)

CORRECT

Ubisoft's presser didn't actually have anywhere near as many cringe-inducing moments as we thought it would, but there definitely a couple in there.

23. Will the phrase 'seamless open world' be used when describing the next Assassin's Creed at Ubisoft's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (87%)

WRONG

You lot took a gamble with this one, but it didn't pay off. We've heard the term 'seamless open world' be used dozens of times by Ubisoft over the years, but it didn't happen for Origins.

24. Will a brand new PS4 Star Wars game be announced at E3 2017?

Your answer: Yes (55%)

WRONG

Nope, no new Star Wars games were announced - you just got a further look at Star Wars Battlefront 2.

25. Will The Elder Scrolls VI be mentioned at all during Bethesda's press conference?

Your answer: No (76%)

CORRECT

You were right to doubt this one. There was no mention of The Elder Scrolls VI at all - Todd Howard didn't even show up.

26. Will Days Gone get a release date at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (69%)

WRONG

We did get a lengthy gameplay demo of Days Gone, but no there was no sign of a release date.

27. Will Shawn Layden wear some sort of PlayStation branded top at Sony's press conference?

Your answer: Yes (82%)

WRONG

Shawn Layden may have been the only human to grace Sony's stage, but he was wearing a flash looking suit, not a branded top.

28. Will Sony announce at least one remaster at its press conference?

Your answer: Yes (87%)

CORRECT

Sony did indeed announce a remaster during its presser: Shadow of the Colossus is coming to PS4.

29. Will Sony make the audience audibly gasp at least once during its press conference?

Your answer: Yes (91%)

CORRECT

We could barely hear the audience cheer during Sony's show thanks to the lack of audio, but there were definitely a few gasps here and there.

30. Will Sony start its E3 2017 press conference late?

Your answer: Yes (81%)

CORRECT

Yep, Sony did start its show just a couple of minutes late.


Final Score

Oh dear oh dear... E3 2017 has not been kind to the Push Square community. 30 questions was always going to be a big ask, and it's safe to say that things haven't gone especially well. To be fair, your overall score isn't disastrous either, but you know what we mean.

The bottom line is that we all expected more from this year's event - and it didn't really deliver, did it? 

Better luck next year!
