The more powerful console (Scorpio) is another console due in late 2017.

So have I just become really jaded in the past year, or does this E3 suck all across the board so far? I'm only interested in a handful of games so far, and other than the Skyrim remaster, I don't think any of them were new announcements.

Hope Sony has some cool stuff or I'll be really disappointed.

With all the games announced last year then delayed to 2017, it was inevitable that there would be a gap in this year's hype reels. Tough to announce new games when all the studios are already busy on something you hyped up last time.

It's like Ubisoft heard people calling for Skate 4 and decided to make Steep.

Hmm people want a new Skate - lets give them a similar concept but in the mountains with skiing, snowboarding, paragliding, and flight suits.

Looks pretty cool.

This mountain in Steep has an alarmingly high casualty rate lol.

What's the point of a unique setting if you throw out all the elements that make it unique?

That Verdun game looks pretty cool though. Have to try it out. That looks more like at least an attempt at realistic WWI combat.

I'm stoked for Forza Horizon 3. I love the series, and would buy it anyway, but being able to play it on PC is a huge bonus.

The offroad trucks look great. They needed more of them. Driving through a field in a supercar is kinda dumb.

Yeah I'm excited for it too. PC is missing that Gran Turismo/Forza type game that I've been wanting since Gran Turismo 3, Forza looks like it could be that game

Vehicles move way too fast as well. I get that they have to appeal to kids and casual fans but that just looks too arcady to me.

According to this site some http://www.firstworldwar.com/weaponry/tanks.htm 7700 tanks were produced during ww1.Video games are not meant to be completely accurate.I will be buying battlefield 1 just for the fact that it isnt "cod modern future warfare outerspace mind control 7".I just hope they have things like railway guns and horse battles.

Sony really does a great job pushing cinematic titles. Some great looking stuff.
