E3

So E3 kicks off tomorrow with press conferences from Microsoft and Sony.

What do you guys want to see?
What do you think will be revealed about the XboxONE and the PS4?

I personally think that both the XboxONE and the PS4 will be given release dates and prices. I also think that the PS4 will be cheaper.

Meh. Not too arsed. Ideally I’d build a beastly PC and use that, then get a PS4 for more casual gaming.

I dislike how elitist a lot of 360 owners are, using the arguments “Halo, better online”. Even though PS3 has better hardware, free online (albeit not as good as Xbox Live, but still good.) and better UI. So I kind of hope XBOne fails.

Also Microsoft are obviously just short on money so are moving from core gaming. You know, that community that kept the 360 selling for 7+ years? Maybe they should start a kickstarter.

I can’t wait for the new information on Destiny man! That game is gonna kick some serious booty! Halo is completely done with, 343 industries has officially killed the series with halo 4, but I can’t wait to see more gameplay on other games like GTA V and battlefield 4!

You know im a huge Xbox fan. Not anyone part, but the defining thing for me would be the better multiplayer, the controller actually feels like its not going to break in half, and i have a good amount of games that i can buy and download. Im PISSED they are moving away from gamers like me cause i HATE sports games. =( if you want to play a sport, get up off your ass, and go outside with your friends and play them. The only games i wanted to get a PS3/4 for was Kingdom Hearts, and God of War Series, but now its looking like ill be Halo’-less, and no otherway to play BL3 when it eventually comes out so ill have no real choice =(

Nintendo is going to be showcasing two things: Zelda and Smash Bros. Smash is finally getting some talk by Miyamoto and his lackeys, so there will be plenty of talk about it for Wii-U and 3DS and about a bundle pack with Wii-U and the Pro Controller/Gamecube Controller adapter and Finally about Zelda Wii-U, and the new Wind Waker HD they are making for the Wii you and how it will run.

I’ll be at work.

Gimme an update of the highlights for each conference. All I really need is a list of announced games previously unknown and a list of anything important regarding the new consoles that wasn’t previously revealed.

Just that info will make me happy.

Shad, just to point out, I’m not saying all Xbox fans are… well, retarded. But compare the Call of Duty community on Xbox Live and PSN… PSN wins by a mile. It’s just all French people.

And yeah, I doubt I’ll be looking at anything to do with E3, so an update posted here would be appreciated.

Microsoft just kicked off.
Watch it here.

Exclusives announced for XboxONE including:
Ryse Son of Rome
Killer Instinct
Sunset Overdrive
Forza Motorsport 5 (drive-atars that learn from the way you race. No more AI, instead, a simulation of racing against real people)
Minecraft(?)(Now with bigger maps!)
Quantam Break
D4(?)
Project Spark
Crimson Dragon
Dead Rising 3
The Witcher 3
(Then I missed a bit, I think Halo 5 might have been in there)
Titanfall

XboxONE partnership with TwitchTV confirmed.
Microsoft points to be replaced by local currency.

XboxONE to be released this November
$499
€499
£429
(Europe and UK price equivalent to $660. We get screwed. Again.)

Better than their launch.

The Halo thing confused me a bit. It was Halo, but seemed kind of like a spin off? Idk. Looked cool though. So did Titan Fall.

Also no longer a limit on Xbox Live friends.

What is going to stop me buying this console, is the pricing for Europe.
It is so much more expensive over here, especially in the UK (Over $165 more expensive)

I was kindof disappointed with Minecraft. The only thing different to the 360 version is the map size. I thought they may have added texture pack support or mod support or something.

Ryse looks SO good. Except there’s an overuse of quicktime IMO.
Dead Rising 3 also looks epic. An open world zombie game like that is awesome.
The new Forza also looks incredible. The way the ‘drive-atar’ learns from the way you drive and then races against other players all over the world in your style looks awesome.

Agreed. Probably wouldn’t get it anyway though. I never do.

To be honest, not much they can do with it. Not like graphics can be boosted.
Apparently HatFilms wanted to make the trailer more “awesome” showing off stuff, but Microsoft put a lot of restrictions on them.

Think I missed that bit.

Although most of the Dead Rising humour wasn’t there.

Agreed. Forza always looks good. But can someone explain where there is a “t” in the word Forza?!

Sony fucking owned it. Anyone who would choose XBONE over PS4 is out of their mind.

Damn. I am done with console but the PS4 is looking good - all they have to do is nothing- microsoft is just handing them sale after sale

Hey, Xbox.

Done Son

That new PS4 looks like some kind of spaceship.

Still looks better than xbox 1. Its literally a box.
