E3 2013

VG_Addict
As you may or may not know, E3 is in a few days. What do you expect to see from each company?

Tzeentch._
From the Xbox ONE, I expect to see two things:

1. Games. Lots of games. Lots of support for games and gamers.

2. Lots of ass kissing and damage control for the media fiasco regarding their shenanigans.

Nemesis X
Pretty much what Blax said except for the part where we expect them to apologize and fix everything. They're no doubt gonna keep the DRMs in their console regardless of the negative feedback and hope their dozens of exclusive games will change our minds.

Ridley_Prime
Recently there was an announcement of Rare saying they're going to bring an iconic revival of a franchise. If it's Killer Instinct and is only on the Xbox One and not 360 I'll be pissed, and knowing my luck that would be the case.

Tzeentch._
I don't see MS removing the DRM feature either, but I do see them sugar coating it and explaning consolations at E3 to smooth it over.

They could go either way on the always online thing. It's a feature that isn't necessary at all, even on their end, so I could see them dropping it. But they might just be stubborn.

As far as games, well, I'm hoping for more new IP's and less sequels, which we might get because 1. This is the start of the new console generation, and 2. I feel like sequel fatigue has settled in quite a bit. From what I've seen, a lot of sequel games didn't sell as well last year as publishers were hoping (sans the obligatory CoD release), so I think that's a message to publishers and developers that they need to step it up.

Zack Fair
Microsoft will never apologize Nemesis. uhuh

Nemesis X
Isn't that what I said?

FistOfThe North
I wanna see and know more about the Oculus Rift so far. A presentation on it'd be nice. Been following them since the start. And/or some more stuff on the Virtuix Omni treadmill.

Looking forward to what Nvidia's got up their sleeves too.

Darth Vicious
I expect complete details about the Xbox One and PS4. Also, how many new exclusives games each system will have.

Barker
Hoping to hear on:

Bioshock Infinite DLC
Some sort of Battlefront 3 teaser
Pokemon X/Y (Which I guess won't technically be at E3, but the ND should still count)
New multi-plat titles

I'm not as interested in Sony or Microsoft as I should be (since I don't plan on getting Xbone or PS4 for a year or two) but those conferences should be exciting all the same.

srankmissingnin
I'm hoping Kojima is trolling us and we find out that Hayter is still the voice of Snake. embarrasment

Zack Fair
Hopefully something like this happens during Kojima's presentation

Maybe something from Valve? That would be sweet but unlikely.

BackFire
I'm actually expecting a big showing from MS, considering how underwhelming their Xbox One reveal was.

I would not be surprised at all if they announce some major exclusive or timed exclusives from EA, such as Dragon Age III or something.

Nemesis X
If it's only temporary, I'll just wait for DAIII to be on the PS4. Xbox One will have some awesome exclusives to show off, I'm sure, but no matter how tempting they look, I still don't think I'll go buy a One due to the flaws that were brought up at the reveal. If they want me and others back, they have to remove the Used Game DRM, let us play offline should we ever take our console somewhere that doesn't have internet or if we somehow lose connection at our homes, and let us turn the Kinect off whenever we don't need it.

Smasandian
Hahahah, people will buy it if it has games. People will always buy a console if it has games.

Nemesis X

PS4 has games and is not anti-consumer to boot so...

VG_Addict
I seriously doubt MS will remove the DRM.

If MS confirms DRM for the One, and the following day, Nintendo announces a unified account system for the Wii U/3DS, that would be a HUGE win for Nintendo.

BackFire
That wouldn't really matter. Nintendo isn't really directly competing with MS or Sony anymore. What MS or Nintendo does has no real affect on the other anymore.

Morridini
Suggestion for websites to see the conferences the day after? From previous years the sites that stream suck for later viewings.

ares834
Battlefront! F yeah!

Nemesis X
It's not an Xbox One exclusive is it?

ares834
Don't think so. They only showed a very brief trailer, no mention of exclusivity.

Bardock42
**** YES, MIRROR'S EDGE 2, YES! YESSS!


I'm so happy.

ares834
Yeah, EA did pretty good this year... Surprising.

Nemesis X
Mirror's Edge 2!

EA Sports presentations are always so mind bogglingly embarrassing though.

Nephthys
I didn't expect Mirrors Edge to be this popular. People are going bananas over it.

Bardock42
Prolly cause it was awesome hmm

Nephthys
It was decidedly mediocre. :I

Peach
It was definitely awesome. It was also a rather niche game, and actually quite different from most that have been made, so it's got a dedicated following for it.

I am so so so happy and excited that another one is finally happening.

EA: PvZ2, Peggle 2, Battlefront, BF4, Fifa, and Garden Warfare all seem reasonably interesting.

Not a bad day for EA at all.

"You played the game, therefore you must have liked it".

Mirror's Edge 2 was fun. I'm glad they are making a sequel. Hope they incorporate shooting while parktouring and shit like that.

Not too much shooting I hope.

Kingdom Hearts 3 was announced and it appears to be multi-platform. FF, however, is a PS4/3 exclusive. Strange, thought it would be the other way.

All they did was talk about the games that'll be on the One. I didn't hear anything about Microsoft removing the DRM. So no no expression

Sony confirmed they won't be implementing any DRm or online bullshit.

Done seal.

Back to Sony. i love not being one of those fanboys stuck in brands.

I'm sure it is, but so is the Xbox One price.

And I guess you could argue the Kinect costs extra, but maybe then they shouldn't bundle it with everything (which has its own issues).

I don't know, I don't see Microsoft making a good case to consumers at all.

never went back there


I started paying for Plus after the PSN debacle, the free month sold me in

I even tried to convince some of my friends I regularly played online with (like 3, don't play much online embarrasment ) to get it, only one of them did, now they're gonna have to get it big grin

the PS4 looks like the Xbone (only tilted) glossy/matte and all

I honestly don't have a problem with the design but to continue your analogy the PS4 is the sister who doesn't charge as much if you want to stick something in her.

And then you can share the entire thing with your friends.

Yeah. I've gotten the chance to play games like Sleeping Dogs, Just Cause 2, KOF13 all for 'free' due to my PS+ membership.
Heck, they are offering Uncharted 3 for no charge this week.

So the camera is not included with the ps4

it'll cost 60 bucks

http://kotaku.com/the-ps4-has-a-500gb-hard-drive-and-other-misc-details-512521805

so that means we get no PRISM out of the box with a PS4 purchase, unlike Xbone

Am a little late to the party because of other matters, but yeah. Great news and stuff regarding Sony. Had a good feeling they would throw a good curve ball like this, and still funny and ironic how MS is making the same mistake with the One as Sony did during the beginning of the PS3 as far as the pricing, while now Sony has learned from that...

Even before E3, I figured the PS4 would become my more top priority console for the next gen, though like I said I wouldn't mind getting the other two systems as well if there's a price drop and I have enough reason, besides Killer Instinct I guess. Even with Sony becoming the best right now I'm still not gonna be some anti-fanboy towards their competitors' systems because well.. console wars are for kids.

Nibedicus
Well, based on current E3 news, for me, it's PS4ever. XBox DOne....

I'm not a console head but I've never seen so much extreme hate for a new console. I mean this is bordering on just blind, cult-like insanity. It's so extreme that it seems too much. As if something else is wrong. Which makes me think that sony fanboys are either really, really butthurt and bitter the ms beat them the last generation overall and wanna make sure they win this time by any means necessary, whether it be by smearing the living effin' shite outta xbox one every waking second they get, for the rest of their lives or just because it's trendy to do so.

They both look good to me. But sony fanboys act , almost threatened. There's just this high level anger on a Hitler scale. It's sad kinda. as I watch it all from above in ether in the PC realm.

I think you just underestimate how ridiculous DRM on a console is.

So, to recap, Killer Instinct:

- Looks like a SFIV clone

- Is being developed by Double Helix, the company that made such "gems" as Battlefield and Silent Hill: Homecoming

- Is F2P, but only one character is free.

No because Sony fans aren't getting the xbox one so what's it to them? Their blind hate is practically unnecessary. I can see xbox fans or people getting the system reacting this way, which I've hardly seen by the way. In fact I've seen more ms fans like xbox one than not. But almost all the hatred has been coming from people whom are not even getting xbox one. And that group's the sony fanboy. I don't get it.

Bardock42
I'm pretty much an Xbox fanboy, and I feel terrible about the Xbox One, and am begrudgingly leaning towards the PS4. It's not blind hate in many people (probably is in some, there always were extreme fanboys for either side), but Microsoft actually screwing up a lot of stuff that's important to people.

They didn't make a compelling case for their console at all. Worse than that they are pushing things that people actively dislike.

Maybe, maybe not. If it's anything like pc DRM then I could definitely relate because I just went through one of the biggest, if not the biggest DRM debacle in video game history with SimCity (2013).

It was a pain in the ass yet, imo SimCity's been the best pc exclusive to come out in a long time. It's definitely been the best game overall, this past season and maybe even this year so far. It's been the game I've played the most this year.

DRM has it's issues but it's not the end of the world. And whether DRM is just a commercial agenda veiled in an anti-piracy cloak or not, if you don't like companies that use it, don't purchase their products. Stop b*tching about it if your not getting involved with hardware with DRM software.

The Xbox One isn't just going to affect those who purchase it. Its anti-used games thing is going to have repercussions on the whole industry, possibly shutting down many game stores. I myself am slightly worried that my local Insane Games might be in trouble.

And then, some are just intellectually outraged.

I sure hope you weren't made to feel terrible because of sony and it's fans smear campaign against the xbox one.

There's nothing wrong with liking the xbox one if you do. If you do your cool, your good. I like the xbox one. I do like what they're doing with tv. I know I won't clown you if you like the xbox one. I also like the ps4. They're both gonna be great hardcore gaming machines. They just have extras now. The xbox one is definitely way, way better than the 360 and the ps3 as it's suppose to be. And I gotta say some of the features on xbox one are brilliant and straight out beat most of the extras the ps4 has. Not including way more exclusives. The Kinect and Live are more powerful than ever and much more powerful the ps4's version of it.

And the xbox one's presentation last month and this week was clear, I thought.

I'm not telling you who or what to pick but if I was I'd tell you to pick what You genuinely like while not under the influence like the others..

Bardock42
Nah, the problem is I want to like the Xbox One, but it's just a worse offering for what I want in a game console currently. Before yesterdays E3, I was pretty sure I'd get an Xbox One. Now I think I'll probably get the PS4 or reluctantly go back to Windows gaming (though that's such a pain in the ass). Though stuff can still change in the next couple months of course (and crossing my fingers for Valve to save me from everything).

Eh, it really wasn't. The first 3/4 of it were pretty painful. Oh, Sony definitely won E3 but it wasn't because their conference was good.

If any of the big three need to die, it's Microsoft.

So, to recap, Killer Instinct:

- Looks like a SFIV clone

- Is being developed by Double Helix, the company that made such "gems" as Battlefield and Silent Hill: Homecoming

- Is F2P, but only one character is free.
With the flashy colors and stuff I noticed the SFIV/MvsC3 feel it had to it. What happened to the Mortal Kombat feel the original KI had? It had some blood and fatality-esque finishers. Didn't really see either in the trailer. Part of what I liked about the original KI was that it kinda felt like a mix of MK and SF as far as gameplay. This new one though...

Zack Fair
I'll be honest I prefer a SF feel over a MK feel.

The original KI kinda had both though, which was what I was getting at.

I wish we could have seen more details on FExSMT and Yarn Yoshi.

I'm not a console head but I've never seen so much extreme hate for a new console. I mean this is bordering on just blind, cult-like insanity. It's so extreme that it seems too much. As if something else is wrong. Which makes me think that sony fanboys are either really, really butthurt and bitter the ms beat them the last generation overall and wanna make sure they win this time by any means necessary, whether it be by smearing the living effin' shite outta xbox one every waking second they get, for the rest of their lives or just because it's trendy to do so.

They both look good to me. But sony fanboys act , almost threatened. There's just this high level anger on a Hitler scale. It's sad kinda. as I watch it all from above in ether in the PC realm. Have you considered the possibility that the XBOX One just looks like shit to the majority of people?

And before you try pulling that Sony fanboy bullshit on me in lieu of anything substantial to say, the 360 was my first last gen console, followed by the Wii. Last, I got the PS3.

I hope Nintendo has a better GamesCom conference.

The Xbox One isn't just going to affect those who purchase it. Its anti-used games thing is going to have repercussions on the whole industry, possibly shutting down many game stores. I myself am slightly worried that my local Insane Games might be in trouble.

And then, some are just intellectually outraged.

The problem lies in people forgetting that Xbox, and even the playstation, are businesses first, with a responsibility to their stockholders, firstly, whom expect a return on their investment through the hopes of increased value over time. Investors are partly to solely the reason why video games exist. Because of their funding. The dispensable consumer/gamer/second hand businesses are second. Not no. 1. Always has been and always will be.

Do you honestly think that if given the opportunity, the playstation wouldn't take advantage of what they think would be an potentially lucrative business opportunity, like keeping some if not all of the money made on your software, kinda like royalties, even if it meant closing some indie stores and upsetting some of their consumers, if they thought that they'd make money on the move overall? Absolutely not.

Microsoft I hope realizes that screwing people over is not what the customer wants! You listen to them they are the boss or you will not be in the industry! Looks like I'm getting a Wii U, with Nintendo announcing Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8 and the new Zelda.

Thing is, the majority of those people have been Sony fanboys. I'd understand if the majority was a mix but so far it's been mostly ps4 fans, i'm not lying. Most of the xbox one insults I've seen, all over all the others, have included pro-playstation 4 references.
