- The Order 1886 – Cinematic Trailer. This looks much darker and horror esque than the original Order trailer. I am intrigued.

- Infamous: Second Sun – Summer DLC; Infamous: First Light. Female main character and stand alone DLC. I don’t really know enough about Infamous: Second Sun to know much about the characters.

Sony had a lot of stuff to show that I am pretty interested in. Uncharted 4, MKX, No Man’s Sky, Magicka 2, Bloodborne, The Order 1886, Destiny, and FarCry 4 all look really good to me and I’m pretty excited about them. Battlefield Hardline still looks really good. If any of those are PC games I’ll be getting them on the PC first though. I’m a little disappointed that they didn’t mention more stuff for the Vita. The Vita/PS TV thing is pretty cool though but I’m not really its market. I’m really hype for Tales of Hearts R though. I think the most exciting things were Bloodborne, The Order 1886, and Uncharted 4 as far as PS4 exclusives go. Overall not a bad show, but nothing too mind blowing either. Pretty safe showing.
Nintendo’s digital event is tomorrow morning. I’ll be making a post for it as well, expect it later tomorrow afternoon though. After that I will make a post about the things I’m really excited about.
