Talking Point Is E3 Still Relevant?
The burning question
There were huge question marks over the purpose of E3 last year, when Sony’s tentpole showcase failed to meet expectations and the other publishers were unable to pick up the slack. This year has been immeasurably worse: whatever your thoughts on the various press c
Poll What Was the Best PS4 Game of E3 2019?

E3 has been a weird one this year, and not just because of Sony's absence.

Reaction Sony Bailed on E3 2019, And Took Gameplay Demos with It
Show surprisingly light on in-game footage
At the time, Sony’s unconventional E3 2018 press conference was dubbed a disaster due to a lack of surprises and an awkward intermission.
