OK I have to say it. Sony's PS4 E3 coverage was terrible!!! - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Without even getting into just how completely useless the E3 app was on the PlayStation (and it WAS terrible. Couldn't get the live presser to stream. Couldn't get any of the videos to play through it, etc), Sony overall did a lousy ass job of E3 coverage through the PS4. Compared to the competition, MS' E3 coverage through Xbox One was fantastic! They kept it up to date, they made their entire conference viewable through X1 shortly after it was over, (hell I STILL can't find Sony's conference on PSN), they provided tons of game trailers in full screen 1080p (Sony has at least half the number of E3 game trailers on PSN and for whatever reason we are forced to watch them in tiny viewing windows instead of full screen), plus overall it just seems like Microsoft was more eager to build excitement around E3 for their fans.

Hey Sony, I understand that you want to present the PlayStation 4 as a gaming system first and foremost but you can't continue to ignore multimedia apps and services and pretend like they're not important. While there are many multimedia apps and services that I don't really care about, When it comes to such an important GAMING event such as E3, I expect you to treat it as such and not like a complete afterthought. It's pretty sad that while I intended to buy games like Destiny and Farcry 4, and GTAV on PS4, I have to constantly be switching back over to my Xbox One to find proper coverage on those games because you cannot seem to be bothered to put up a decent full-screen 1080P E3 trailer on any of them!

Normally I'm very happy with Playstation products and services but in this case Sony, when it came to E3 coverage you completely shit the bed! Shame on you! It was complete amateur hour!
