Day 1 and 2 of E3 Summary

As the sun rose on Los Angeles on June 10th, many hopeful gamers flocked to E3, or the Electronic Entertainment Expo. From newly released games to newly revealed consoles, Day 1 proved to be quite a blockbuster event.

The newly revealed PS4 won the heart of gamers, and shone alongside Sony's executive, who revealed to the cheering audience that the PS4 would not need a constant Internet connection and would be able to play used games, very much unlike its rival, the Xbox One. Additionally, the PS4 will be $100 cheaper than the Xbox One. It will also include a 500 GB hard drive. The one thing gamers missed during all the hype was Sony's plan of doing a paid plan for $50 for online multiplayer, matching Microsoft's plan of Xbox Live's paid subscription. The PS4 will also not be packaged with a camera, but will also be included with the traditional Blu-ray player. Sony also announced they'd be releasing multiple versions of the PS4, much like the Xbox One is doing.

The Xbox One also had a bit of highlighting moment, as they talked more about games, as promised. However, with the hefty price tag of $499, many gamers still feel like they're trying to create an all-around living room entertainment system. However, they didn't leave out games for the Xbox One as they promised, with an impressive lineup of games exclusively to the Xbox One, ranging from zombie-shooter Dead Rising 3, Ryse: Son of Rome, Titanfall, and the highly surprised release of Halo 5.

What may be the most interesting part of the Xbox One exclusive games was Project Spark, which is more of a game creation tool. The games you create can be played by you and your friends. 

On the opposite side of the spectrum, PS4 had many companies release their lineup of games for the next-gen-console, including inFamous: Second Son, Killzone: Shadow Fall, and The Last of Us, and The Order: 1886.

Many non-exclusive games this year include highly anticipated Battlefield 4, Batman: Arkham Origins, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Saints Row 4, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Watch Dogs. Killer Instict also got the spotlight, as did a new release of cult-favorite, Mirror's Edge. A big game released that have many fans excited is Star Wars Battlefront 3.

Day 2 revealed quite a bit on Nintendo's hands, including Mario Kart 8 for Nintendo's 8th-gen console, the Wii U. Alongside with Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. returned to Nintendo's consoles for Super Smash Bros. Wii U. They also revealed a new Legend of Zelda, titled A Link Between Worlds for the 3DS.

Many other games that were revealed yesterday will get more explination on today's stages, including inFamous: Second Son, Wolfenstein: New Order, and Batman: Arkham Origins.

E3 this year has proved to be one of the biggest in recent years, especially with more details of the Xbox One and the revealing of the PS4. Many games were revealed along with the consoles, many for universal consoles, and a handful of exclusive games for the PS4 and a bunch of exclusives for the Xbox One.
