Square Enix is the next/last major conference for E3, or at least the last one I'm going to be able to cover. Nintendo is running their Nintendo Direct tommorow at some point but it's at 2AM here and I can't be up at that time. I've only managed to find the IGN stream for it (hopefully will have a better one soon, just don't want commentary personally and I'm not sure if this one will have it.
Other E3 Conferences:
It seems like a major aspect of Square Enix's E3 Conference seems to be focused on an Avengers game. So far most of it is a bit vague, as in I think we don't have any real information on the game. There's a lot of vague ideas going around, no idea if it's going to be a sort of MCU Avengers or a more comic based one, or something completely unique. No idea on characters, whether you'll be a new recruit like some of those old X-Men games (or that DC Universe game that I've played for about 10 minutes) or actually play as Iron Man, Hulk, etc. No idea on the genre, personally hoping for an RPG-esque style game rather than something more like Spider-Man (2018) but it could be really interesting to be a completely story-focused game like that. Could also be a beat-em-up or anything else.

Alright guys, all the trailers are up now. Wish I'd been a little bit faster with it, but here we are.
So, I actually think Square Enix did a really good job with their conference. I'm not excited about many games, only FF7, Dragon Quest Builders and Avengers but they did make me care about a new game (GQB) but I think their big game is...well massive. There's some minor stuff, but if your a fan of any of the smaller games then your in a really good place because there's a tonne of it. I think they provided, just so much detail on the two bigger games that totally outstrips most other conferences, which I think is really important.
Honestly, I was super-excited to see FF7
That game was the first game that I ever 'properly' go into (as opposed to just messing about with stuff like platform-jumpers on the Atari ST). To see it 'reimagined' for modern consoles is just insane, really.
I will be buying this on release, make no mistake about that!
