Ellie meets up with another woman, who takes her to the floor for a slow dance.

We have our first trailer. It’s Naughty Dog, so presumably The Last of Us Part II. Scene opens on a church dance in a setting like the one the conference is set in. Read more

Besides the “Freebird!” guy, this crowd is hyper-focused on the music. It’s nice. Read more

Layden introduces Gustavo Santaolalla to the stage to play some music on the banjo. It sounds like The Last of Us.

Layden looks crisp and professional! Says they will talk about games in a “deeper” way tonight.

The lights come up on the room. Shawn Layden comes to the stage for opening remarks. Read more

Hey Chris, we’re up to press conference number three for today and it’s the one I’m most excited for. Sony announced some really great stuff over the last year and I’m really eager to see more of it in action. Read more

Yeah, a lot of it is going to depend on how the missile keys work. If the codes are absurdly rare and (as I imagine they must) reset after use, then it might not be as big an issue with the trolling.

I’m still going to play this game and I’m probably going to have a grand old time fighting Mothman and freako frogs with my pals. I just think this nuke this is a bit weird. Like somewhere along the line, Bethesda forgot Fallout was also a satirical series. Read more

Definitely a lot of stuff to look forward too. That’s it for us, friends. Check back later tonight as E3 continues with Bethesda’s conference. Read more

We’re closing down here with a round up trailer. This was a pretty good conference, I’d say. Really want to play Cyberpunk and Shadows Die Twice. Read more
