Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) Discussion Thread 2013

Spinosaurus said:

Smash 4 is what I'm particularly excited for. I'm more than content with a Wii U, a 3DS and a Vita this gen, and I know they'll all get good games eventually. (3DS already did) I doubt I'll get an Xbone or PS4, but hey, it's E3 today, so I might change my mind as soon as tomorrow. A new Naughty Dog game could get me to buy a PS4, if it looks appealing to me.

EDIT: 3 hours and a half until Microsoft's conference!

I thiiiiiiink they're only going to show brief screenshots of the new smash bros game, according to a Nintendo direct sometime ago. Unless I'm missing something here.

...I've been thinking about this a lot, but, if Microsoft actually pulls through with their presentation, maybe my mind will be changed about the Xbox One? Of course, it depends on what video games are going to be available for the Xbox One, and for the PS4 for that matter, but, I guess we'll just have to see.

Smash 4 was confirmed to get a trailer by none other than Sakurai himself.

If you're talking about The Last Of Us which is getting a lot of hype at the moment, it's a PS3 game.

Not Last of Us, a new game, preferably a new IP. The Uncharted 3 team probably got something cooking for PS4. We'll see.

Yeah I won't be watching the Sony conference since they'll most likely ignore the Vita as usual (for the love of god sony give me a reason to play this damn thing) and I really don't care about the PS4 or Sony's current franchises to stay up late for them.

In it for Microsoft and Nintendo though. It's gonna take way more than Halo to get my and others attentions this time, Microsoft. So it should be interesting to see what they're cooking. I've already got a Wii U and that thing needs games.

If they're showing off the PS4, you can bet they'll be showing off the Vita as well.

Sure sure, but will they show off the Vita games? :P That's what I'm interested in.

Starting off with MGSV, smart move.

I thought it was only an Sony exclusive though. Hm.

Nothing has stood out to me so far and Ryse looks... awful. It just looks like a quick time version of Total War.​

For the game, I don't think you'd have to rely solely on QTE's. They were probably just constantly using QTE's to show off their animations. But, eh, I have mixed feelings about the game myself, but, I thought it looked cool~


EDIT: I really like Sunset Overdrive; it reminds me of Borderlands!

wuh wuh wuh? 8D

Oh, it's exclusive to Xbox One. I'm never getting that, not after reading about some of the questionable policies. :(

I'm especially looking forward to Smash 4 news. It may tempt me to get a WiiU (besides Sonic Lost World). :P

I died when the sound cut off when Crimson Dragon had a sound glitch. Looks like the next generation is here. Also, I am sick of SmartGlass already and I haven't even used it, and while I'm not against second screens on video game consoles, It doesn't look very well done.

Just give me Sony and Nintendo's new games and I'll be happy.

Sunset Overdrive looks like Borderlands crossed with Jet Set Radio, not sure if I like the look of it.

The 360 preservation is looking good and I'm looking forward to playing Halo 3 again when it's on offer for free.

The games for the One have been largely hit and miss, but the console itself and its policies are looking a lot better than they did originally. I suspect games will be largely the same on PS4 anyway minus Forza.

Crimson Dragon's lack of music just made a hilariously bad game look worse.

Expect mass editing for BF4.

I must say, Microsoft has impressed me with with the games, but im still not happy about the kinect and used game crap..

How the hell will people be able to afford $500

They're putting up Xbox One for $499. That's... quite a lot. XD Although, maybe because it's a first launch?

£429 I'm out.

Nice try MS, but uhh no not for now. Sony go under 350 and I'm happy to jump ship.

£429 - UK
$499 - US
€499 - Europe

Wow, that is an insult to the UK fans. Shocking price.​

BAHAHAHA 500$.

Also the Dead Rising 3 gameplay was disgusting. Way to kill what made the last two titles different from other zombie games, which are colors and personality. This main character makes Chuck Greene look fun, and that guy was super serious next to Frank West


Best thing about this conference, aside from MGS5 looking soo good, was Halo 5 being 60fps. Everything else was boring or borderline crap. I love how Insomniac did not learn from FUSE at all.

XE conversion from $499 to £ is £320.

Really how do we get such a bum deal all the time?

I'm surprised that none of you guys mentioned the return of Killer Instinct, nor are you excited about it. I guess people really did lose confidence in Rare's games ever since Nuts 'n' Bolts.

I was actually surprised to see Killer Instinct make a return (and the lack of Call of Doggy) . I was expecting Banjo-Kinectie or something like that...

Anyway, $499...this means the PS4 is probably going to be more horrifyingly expensive and the Wii U's price suddenly seems justified. Overall, games/10.

Then again, maybe if Sony markets their PS4 price at about $399 or so, they could gain the spotlight and steal the show from here.

Well, I'm not an marketing expert, so, I guess we'll see what they'll do.

OK, yeah, I admit, I forgot about Killer Instincts, and the fighter fan in me makes me interested in it. But I can't help but think it was boring? I don't know. Just was not appealing at all. I just don't trust Rare anymore into making a proper fighter.

Did anyone else laugh at the "DEATH OF A.I, MAKE IT MORE HUMAN" speech? Gold stuff.

They pretty much gave Sony the win here. Unless they screw up too, which is still possible. We'll see. That conference just made the PS4 look all the more appealing to me and I did not even like the PS3.
