This year, the real winners of E3 are the players. Yes, yes - this phrase gets trotted out so often, it has become cliche. However, it really does feel like is show that offers something for everyone. Want mega-blockbuster games? Try Fallout 4, Halo 5, Uncharted 4, Ghost Recon Wildlands. Want something more designed? You've got Unravel, Abzu, The Last Guardian. Nostalgia? How about the Final Fantasy 7 remake, Shenmue 3, Rare's back catalogue... It's all here. Games win!
However, for every winner, there's often a loser. We've decided to round up a selection of our personal winners and losers from the show, demonstrating that for every awesome action, there's often a sad or amusing reaction. These aren't really games... more people, events and concepts. And Pele, who is all three.

Poor, poor David Rutter. It was like watching a sporty King Canute trying to turn back a tide of Pele gaffes.
For leaving a legacy that now includes three .
Sorry Tiger, it's Rory McIlroy's PGA Tour Golf now. .
For refusing to die.
For refusing to die.
For having the at E3.
For having the worst game name of E3.
For being than Jacob Frye in Assassin's Creed Syndicate.
For being awkward in front of millions of viewers (and the legendary Aisha Tyler) at the Ubi conference.
Because all the cool Nintendo games are coming to 3DS.
Because none of the Sony games are coming to Vita. :-<(/caption>
We got a lot of 'em - Final Fantasy 7, , The Last Guardian - and they genuinely set our worlds alight.
Did you notice how most games were a lot more stylised at E3? There certainly wasn't any talk of 'realistic physics' or 'high polygon counts'. The focus is back on the joy of playing. Sorry, realism: (pun intended) are better than reality...
