Best Show at E3 2015



So today is the last day of E3. Lots of games were announced across Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft shows. Some great games were shown this year like Unravel, For Honor, Gears 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, and much more. Every fan ask themselves this every year at E3, who had the best show? I'm here to say that Microsoft and Sony were tied in the top this year.

Sony and Microsoft dropped a lot of bombs this year that made lots of gamers happy. Some of the highlights from Microsoft included Gears of War 4, backwards compatibility coming to the Xbox One, new IP called Recore, more Halo 5 Guardians footage, Gears Ultimate edition and more. Over on Sony's side we got a new IP called Horizon Zero Dawn, Shenmue III announced, more Uncharted 4 gameplay, Final Fantasy VII Remake announced, and The Last Guardian gameplay. Both shows had something to offer to get fans excited to upgrade to the latest gen (if they haven't already) or show fans who already purchased an Xbox One/PS4 what to expect soon.

Here's the order I'd rank the show's:

1. Microsoft/Sony
3. Ubisoft
4. Bethesda
5. Square Enix
6. Nintendo
7. EA

Ubisoft every year always has something to look forward to, Bethesda and Square Enix had solid shows, but by the time we got to Square's press conference a lot of what they showed was already seen elsewhere. Nintendo lacked anything major this, we've had better Nintendo Direct's than the show we got this year, and EA's was just boring. Too much of a focus on sport games really killed it for me.

As E3 wraps up go ahead and check out my other blogs for my thoughts on each show. Click here Microsoft Bethesda Sony EA Ubisoft Square Enix Nintendo.
