10 Most Cringeworthy E3 2015 Moments
4. Uncharted 4 Controller Malfunction
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUGL1w2_L4wIn classic E3 fashion Sony brought out their most respected developer Naughty Dog to reliably close out their conference with a bang, presenting not only never before seen gameplay of the newest title in the company's flagship Uncharted series, but a demo that was being played live.
Of course, just about everything that could have went wrong with playing a game live on stage in front of thousands of people watching went wrong, and when the demo booted up, playable character Nathan Drake just wouldn't move. Instead of blistering action, fans and onlookers had to watch as Drake stood still for what seemed like an eternity.
As it turns out, there was a problem with the controller, as the lead developer of the game who was unfortunate enough to be playing it on stage explains in the above video, and a back-up console had to be used with the title needing to be rebooted before the demo decided to cooperate.
