Electronic Arts
EA Play is a combination of conferencing, live gameplay, and trailers, while several locations come and go, so not just 1 stage, which means that this concept is rather creative. Star Wars Battlefront II seems to be going all out with the source material, while Need for Speed Payback is looking good and promises to combine past formulas into it.
Anthem looked very generic, while A Way Out is offering an interesting co-operative experience. Other than that, there are your usual sports games announced, this time with story/narration modes, and there was some Battlefield DLC, but in overall, EA was a very dull conference.

Microsoft
Xbox One X is looking like a monster indeed. Forza 7 is looking good, but Metro Exodus is when this conference really started for me, looking to combine underground with open world gameplay. Assassin's Creed Origins Ubisoft frankly is looking very good, this just might pique my interest to continue this huge franchise.
Playerunknown's Battlegrounds is basically what the fuck,, Deep Rock Galactic too, State of Decay 2 is your average zombie survival horror, The Darwin Project is Hunger Games/Battle Royale the game and Minecraft is getting a 4K upgrade, HAH!
Dragonball Fighters is looking good with 3v3 functionality while Black Desert is an MMO, I missed the pixel game name, The Artful Escape is basically Brody Quest, Code Vein might be interesting, Sea of Thieves is a mixture of promises, Tacoma had the shortest trailer and Super Lucky's Tale genuinely looks fun!
Likewise towards Cuphead, which might spawn a bunch of imitators if it performs well. TERRY CREWS LOL a great opening for a run and gunner named Crackdown 3! After the cool indie compilation we got a glimpse of Ashen, a cooler glimpse of Life is Strange Before the Storm, and Shadow of War is more mindless killings of orcs, with expanding landscapes and the Nemesis system.
Ori and the Will of the Whisps is a surprise sequel! Anthem's gameplay reveal is looking very good with those jetpacks, they should had showed this at their own conference, but what a surprise from EA!
Many good looking games were shown which means that this was a very good Microsoft conference, delivering with exclusives! Backwards compatibilty towards the original Xbox is a deal breaker for me as this just might be enough for me to buy this shit in the future finally!
Or I could just stick with Windows 10 and my future monster PC :) :D :P

Bethesda
Nice montage of developers and their children talking about the profession and fun in general, while Bethesdaland is a nice and funny theme to use during this short conference of roughly 35 minutes.
The Evil Within 2 has a very stylized trailer and I'm liking what I'm seeing, but if Shinji Mikami can't fix what annoyed me about the original then I will skip it. Quake Champions is marketed as esports material and I think I saw a rocketjump somewhere in there.
Wolfenstein II is another stylized and somewhat funny trailer which kind was all over the place with setting, graphics, characters and the more idealistic plot between nazism, communism and capitalism, but I got genuinely excited when the gameplay footage appeared near the end, I loved the 2014 reboot, so naturally this is my most anticipated Bethesda game!
VR features games, paid mods, DLC and ports round up Bethesda's conference, which was just about okay, except for perhaps those dreadful paid mods.
