Current Gen Console Discussions (PS5, Xbox Series X, Switch (Pro?) OFFICIAL THREAD

lol, no kidding.

Twenty out of the first hundred so far. And this is way better than Sony's answer to backwards compatibility with PS Now. Only reason I was looking forward to that in the past was when I thought Plus subscribers would get a special deal. Not the case. Thing's pricey as hell.

And it uses constant bandwidth.

In the end, it probably cost MS a fair bit of money to engineer backwards compatibility and probably fair bit of negotiating with publishers regarding when they are making a lot of money with re-releases.

And they are not making any money out of it so I'm going to give them credit.

Also, for some strange reason, I'm interested in that controller. It feels very PCish (ex. crazy gaming mouses) and the Game Preview having guaranteed trail runs is a big plus.

Overall, very good press conference and it's crazy that MS has Tomb Raider, Halo 5, Forza 6, Gears 4 and a few others for exclusive this year. I'm also interested in the Rare collection....

It's really big news. If they'd announced at launch that they'd have backwards compatibility I may have gotten it instead of a PS4. Good on MS, they've been making good decisions lately.

Holy shit FF7 remake was announced.

Easily the biggest news out of E3 this year. Hopefully it does justice to the original.

Word on the street is Nintendo's conference was absolute dogshit.

Is this true guys? Tell me it's true.

New Star Fox and Fire Emblem are all positives for me

It was charming and had more focus on the 3DS rather than the Wii-U.

But no real big news except Star Fox Zero. Still pushing a Mario maker.

Both posts sound like tacit admissions of it being shit.

Sony just dropped the bomb with that FFVII remake announcement.

Except it's a timed exclusive.

Square Enix conference will be later today.

Waiting for another orgasm moment for KH3.

They've already had it....

I heard Sony was the best this year. Bethesda did well too. Ninetendo did very poorly:

Tragic.

But this happened:

Square Enix redeemed?

Nintendo has it so easy too. All they have to do is show us Zelda for Wii U and people will be singing their praises.

Zelda? That's the game they announced last year that we are not currently playing, yeah?

Where did the Nintendo pic come from?

I got it from Something Awful but I think its from Neogaf originally.
