This is going to be interesting. Microsoft had a strong showing earlier, showing off an impressive slate of games as well as announcing Project Scorpio, the new, all-singing Xbox One that promises to be the most powerful console yet. What can Sony do to counter? It's already said it won't be talking about PS4K, but will the earlier announcement force it to change its tune? We'll find out for sure either way at 2am BST.

Our live coverage of this event has finished.

23:06 pm UTC It's pizza-and-cole o'clock here in the EG Brighton office. How are you guys bearing up? Oli Welsh 23:07 pm UTC I've got to tell you, two days in a row of this is quite a challenge. Oli Welsh 00:13 am UTC No, I wasn't sleeping. I was playing Monster Hunter thank you very much. Martin Robinson 00:13 am UTC And stocking up the EG office fridge with beer. Martin Robinson 00:14 am UTC The joys of working above a 24 hour off licence. Martin Robinson 00:15 am UTC I'm amazed we haven't turned to drink sooner, to be honest. Martin Robinson 00:15 am UTC

SpeckledJim: "working"

Well, yeah.

Martin Robinson 00:16 am UTC Honestly, I'm not complaining. There's something magical about this part of E3, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Martin Robinson 00:18 am UTC If anyone's been drinking since the Microsoft conference and is still powering through, I salute you. Martin Robinson 00:24 am UTC

SpeckledJim: I've watched them all sober. Yes, even the pre-Battlefield One mp stream when they interviewed "celebrities" like it was the Oscars. It wasn't.

No-one in that Battlefield stream was sober either.

Martin Robinson 00:34 am UTC

Seaweed: Hopefully Sony will announce that The Last Guardian is available today! :)

I have been hoping for this exact thing for two years on the trot now.

Martin Robinson 00:35 am UTC

LordViru: Getting ready for the final live nipple watch of E3, bets on whose will be most prominent?

After Scorpio earlier Sony might have to go nuclear and get Cerny's nipples involved somehow.

Martin Robinson 00:51 am UTC Beer has just been opened. Let's get through this together. Martin Robinson 00:51 am UTC Reports of a full orchestra assembling in the auditorium. Martin Robinson 00:53 am UTC Sony are being a lot more out there with their shirt selection, going from this pre-show at least. Martin Robinson 00:55 am UTC Five minutes to go. What to expect? Martin Robinson 00:55 am UTC Whatever happens, it won't top last year. Surely? Martin Robinson 00:56 am UTC A Spiderman game from Sucker Punch is rumoured. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a new zombie game of some sort. Martin Robinson 00:56 am UTC The Last Guardian release date, surely. Martin Robinson 00:57 am UTC Thing is, we know what so many of Sony's studios are up to - they're all announced. Martin Robinson 00:57 am UTC The problem is so much that was announced last year still hasn't released, so I imagine there'll be a lot of updates. Martin Robinson 00:58 am UTC Oh, one more thing to look forward to (potentially) is Kojima's game. He hasn't had long to work on it, so I doubt we'll see much. Martin Robinson 00:58 am UTC Anything would be nice, though. Martin Robinson 00:59 am UTC This is a beautiful venue - an improvement on the soulless arenas Sony typically uses for its conferences. Martin Robinson 01:00 am UTC There's applause in the audience. Lord knows what for, though. Martin Robinson 01:00 am UTC Did Jim Ryan's nipple just pop out? Martin Robinson 01:00 am UTC Is that Brian Crecente? Martin Robinson 01:01 am UTC Oh, no - it's the composer of the orchestra they've got in to start the show. Martin Robinson 01:01 am UTC This sounds like it could be the soundtrack to a new God of War. Martin Robinson 01:02 am UTC Not really a fan of God of War, but the nipple count in those games is off the charts. Martin Robinson 01:02 am UTC Who needs gameplay when you've got men singing? Martin Robinson 01:03 am UTC I think Sony's lost the plot. Martin Robinson 01:04 am UTC This, then, is the soundtrack to Knack 2. Martin Robinson 01:05 am UTC UNLEASH THE NIPPLES. Martin Robinson 01:07 am UTC And there we go. God of War. You're a dad now. Martin Robinson 01:07 am UTC It looks very Naughty Dog. Martin Robinson 01:10 am UTC This is a very different take on God of War - a closer third-person view rather than the more detached action viewpoint of old. Martin Robinson 01:12 am UTC I'm not really feeling the new take. It feels like it's lost all that gave God of War its character, and now just looks fairly indistinct. Martin Robinson 01:14 am UTC Where's the wonderful OTT God of War that, y'know, people liked? Martin Robinson 01:14 am UTC God of feels. Martin Robinson 01:15 am UTC As Jeffrey just pointed out, taking God of War seriously isn't the most appealing idea. Martin Robinson 01:16 am UTC Anyway, here's Shawn Layden, one of the more loveable execs around. Martin Robinson 01:17 am UTC A touching pause for the recent events in Orlando. Martin Robinson 01:19 am UTC Sony Bend Studio's project - one of the few teams who's project remains shrouded in mystery. Martin Robinson 01:19 am UTC This looks like The Last of Us. All of Sony's games are blending into one. Martin Robinson 01:21 am UTC Days Gone is the title. Martin Robinson 01:21 am UTC And now, The Last Guardian. Martin Robinson 01:21 am UTC A release date please! Martin Robinson 01:22 am UTC TWO CATWEAGLES. Martin Robinson 01:22 am UTC This changes everything! Martin Robinson 01:22 am UTC October 25th. Martin Robinson 01:22 am UTC There it is. Martin Robinson 01:23 am UTC And now Horizon. Enjoying the snappiness of this. Martin Robinson 01:23 am UTC Still getting over the fact we have a release date for The Last Guardian. Martin Robinson 01:25 am UTC

dogmanstaruk: Did they give a date for GoW?

Nothing on that.

Martin Robinson 01:25 am UTC Horizon continues to look like a very pretty video game. Martin Robinson 01:26 am UTC And that is some lovely grass right there. Martin Robinson 01:27 am UTC She's riding a mechanical bull. It's basically the Saddle Ranch simulator. Martin Robinson 01:28 am UTC (A reference hopefully lost on those of you with enough good sense to avoid LA's most despicable watering hole). Martin Robinson 01:29 am UTC

perakisg: So, this is running on the Neo then?

That's a question I think we're going to be asking a lot over the next few months.

Martin Robinson 01:31 am UTC It's a proper RPG, with dialogue wheels, elemental damage. Martin Robinson 01:31 am UTC It's also very pretty. Out early next year. Martin Robinson 01:31 am UTC Detroit next. Not much room to breathe, but I'm not complaining. Martin Robinson 01:31 am UTC Would be nice to have time to open that bottle of beer on the other side of the office though. Martin Robinson 01:33 am UTC Elements of detective work mixed in with Cage David's usual cauldron of emotions. Martin Robinson 01:35 am UTC Awful acting, but I think maybe that's the point. Martin Robinson 01:35 am UTC Or at the very least Cage David has a good excuse for it all. Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC This is Kitchen. Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC Capcom's VR experience. Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC But! Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC Like PT. Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC I think it's also a teaser for something else. Martin Robinson 01:36 am UTC WHAT COULD IT BE THOUGH. Martin Robinson 01:37 am UTC (It's a new Rival Schools). Martin Robinson 01:39 am UTC Resident Evil 7, everyone. Martin Robinson 01:39 am UTC June 24th, 2017. Martin Robinson 01:39 am UTC A demo is live on PS Store now, apparently. That's a surprise. Martin Robinson 01:40 am UTC January 24th, that is. Martin Robinson 01:41 am UTC October 13th release date for PSVR. Martin Robinson 01:41 am UTC $399 - though we knew the price already. Martin Robinson 01:42 am UTC Now, a quick VR showcase. Martin Robinson 01:42 am UTC They really are getting a lot in! Martin Robinson 01:43 am UTC Farpoint. Which stars someone called Dr. Moon. Fancy that. Martin Robinson 01:43 am UTC Star Wars Battlefront VR. Martin Robinson 01:44 am UTC It looks like Eve Valkyrie with X-Wings. I'd buy that. Martin Robinson 01:44 am UTC Now, Batman. Martin Robinson 01:45 am UTC I figured this'd be the remaster - but this is still the VR section. Martin Robinson 01:45 am UTC Batman Arkham VR, by Rocksteady. Coming this October. Martin Robinson 01:46 am UTC (Batman obviously has some final nipples, at least in Joel Schumacher's beautiful vision. Can't wait to see them in VR). Martin Robinson 01:46 am UTC VR Chocobo Racing? Martin Robinson 01:47 am UTC VR support of some sort for FF15 too. Martin Robinson 01:48 am UTC This one's new to me. Martin Robinson 01:49 am UTC Ah, it's Call of Duty. Martin Robinson 01:50 am UTC I got excited for a second there. Martin Robinson 01:51 am UTC We've had almost zero stage presence from execs, celebs etc. Martin Robinson 01:51 am UTC Just game after game after game. Martin Robinson 01:51 am UTC It's a very effective approach. Martin Robinson 01:52 am UTC And a pretty overwhelming one, too. Martin Robinson 01:52 am UTC Almost enough to paste over the fact this new Call of Duty looks.... simply okay. Martin Robinson 01:54 am UTC We're getting reports in that Days Gone does indeed feature zombies. Thus making it the most generic game of all time. Martin Robinson 01:54 am UTC Back to Call of Duty. Martin Robinson 01:54 am UTC Bang bang boom etc. Martin Robinson 01:55 am UTC And here's Modern Warfare Remastered, the Call of Duty game that people actually want to play. Martin Robinson 01:56 am UTC Crash Bandicoot now. Martin Robinson 01:56 am UTC Well, you did ask for it. Martin Robinson 01:57 am UTC Crash 1, 2 and Warped being remastered for PS4. Martin Robinson 01:57 am UTC And he'll be in Skylanders. Happy now? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANTED? Martin Robinson 01:58 am UTC Lego Force Awakens now. Out the end of this month. Martin Robinson 02:01 am UTC Andrew House is now taking to the stage, which would normally mean a pretty sizeable announcement. Martin Robinson 02:01 am UTC That, or nipples. Martin Robinson 02:01 am UTC Nah, it's Kojima. Martin Robinson 02:02 am UTC So, here's our look at his game. Martin Robinson 02:03 am UTC Ten years on, we're getting tiny enemy crabs. Martin Robinson 02:03 am UTC That's progress. Martin Robinson 02:03 am UTC NIPPLES. Martin Robinson 02:04 am UTC Ugh, too much nipples. Martin Robinson 02:04 am UTC Norman Reedus nipples, of all things. Martin Robinson 02:04 am UTC NIPPLES! Martin Robinson 02:04 am UTC E3 was always building up to this. Martin Robinson 02:05 am UTC Kojima's new game, Nipples, exclusive to PS4. Martin Robinson 02:05 am UTC Or Death Stranding, okay, call it that if you want. Martin Robinson 02:06 am UTC It'll always be Nipples to me. Martin Robinson 02:06 am UTC Spiderman, I think. Martin Robinson 02:06 am UTC Yup, by Insomniac and not Sucker Punch as we thought. Martin Robinson 02:07 am UTC They could really Arkham this up. SpidermanPS4, quite simply. Martin Robinson 02:07 am UTC I think that's a wrap. Martin Robinson 02:09 am UTC No, we're getting one final game. Martin Robinson 02:09 am UTC Oh, and it's Days Gone. Martin Robinson 02:12 am UTC It's The Last of Us, with more zombies and a bit more action. Martin Robinson 02:14 am UTC Not feeling this in the slightest. Martin Robinson 02:14 am UTC And kind of wish we'd ended on that Kojima weirdness. Martin Robinson 02:15 am UTC Still, that's a lot of zombies! Martin Robinson 02:16 am UTC Funny that Sony Bend's last game was a Naughty Dog cover with all the charm removed. And this... Martin Robinson 02:16 am UTC Well, anyway, that aside that was a cracking conference. Martin Robinson 02:16 am UTC Pretty much no filler, a relentless stream of games most of which looked amazing. Martin Robinson 02:16 am UTC and Hideo Kojima's Nipples, of course. Martin Robinson 02:16 am UTC Nice one Sony. Martin Robinson 02:27 am UTC So, Resi 7, new Kojima, a Spider-Man game from Insomniac. That's a good haul. Martin Robinson 02:27 am UTC We're wrapping there. Thank you for joining us. We'll be back tomorrow for Nintendo's Zelda event. Hopefully see you there!
