E3 2015

[Maelstrom 312]

Sony was kind of meh at the show imo. To quote a friend, the conference was "too much talk, not enough walk", I suppose referring to the abundance of trailers. Not to mention a lot of the games that Sony showed off are most likely going to show up on the XBOX as well, such as FF7, Hitman and MGS5.

The Last Guardian looked solid, as well as Uncharted 4. Well in reality all of the games shown had some appeal to them. World of Final Fantasy looked...odd, but at the same time a fair bit of fun.

Really wanted to see more of Project Morpheus though, especially with Microsoft going in depth on Oculus Rift, but Sony sort of left it at "yeah, this is a thing." This was the thing I was most looking forward to for Sony's conference and they just kinda blew over it. Stuff this advanced does take its time to get ready, I suppose.

Persona 5? Where was that? The game was supposed to be playable on Sony's floor at this E3 but no details from the conference. Looks like it got delayed...again.

Square Enix have their own conference tomorrow right after Nintendo's, which will probably have more information on Deus Ex, FF7, Hitman and whatever else they have in store.

While I'm here I will mention one game's graphics in particular, those being Rory McIlroy PGA Tour. I don't play the EA Sports golf games nearly as much as I used to back in like '02, but DAMN those graphics are amazing. Beginning to lament not having the patience required to play the golf games...

A lot of trailers? Most of what I saw was in-game footage. Maybe you're thinking of the xbox conference.

Last guardian played out like a movie as much as it did a game, whicih looks nice, but I was never interested in it anyways. Just one of those -oh, that's neat- things and that's it for me.

World of FF looked alright. I was turned off right away by the chibi shit, but it looks like it won't be that way all the time so I'm just waiting to find out what the point of the game is and how it'll be played.

I was never interested in the uncharted series and the demo didn't do anything to change that.

Dreams looks like a claymation studio tool for use with the system. And it looked like a lot of time consuming editing that they fast forward time lapsed the hell out of. blah.

and wth? kingdom hearts unchained looks gross. is that a cell phone game? yes, yes it is. with the ugly chibi style of theatrythm and random use of chibi cats with serious dialogue that just doesn't work. WTFBBQ.

Did I mention I became less enthused about the SMT x FE game by the new stuff they showed? something something illusions? They turned tiki into a vocaloid with a terrible, generic vocaloid song shown off in the video. I am disappointed.

The star fox game really does look like a redo of the best SF game in the series, 64, but tbh, the whole dual screen thing looked really awkward. So I'm only lukewarm towards it.

wool yoshi is kinda cute I guess but not interested enough.

I didn't see the fallout 4 thing but people who enjoyed the series before said it was good and mods mods mods. kay. we'll see.

Nintendo didn't really do or show anything new for FE:Fates except give us the name and proved that they were working on getting the english voice acting done for it.

Did xenoblade chronicles look like Phantasy Star Online to anybody else? Cuz I think I'd rather play PSO. The battle system, from what little we saw of it looked like FF13's to me and a lot of people complain about that system.

The metroid prime federation force thing was on screen for only a minute, but it seemed alright. Looks like a spinoff that'll handle a lot like the kid icarus game.

Sad to say, the only thing from e3 that really had me interested was Halo 5. Geek feels when Buck from ODST is on Locke's fire team and that the MC is rolling with his original fire team. Details of warzone are vague, but it seems like they tossed enemy npc's into the middle of a bigger version of BTB to mess with both sides. Unless some of them are your allies sometimes, but there aren't any concrete details on it yet besides the number of players on each team. But it looks like there are way too many vehicles in that mode, which means a lot of one sided matches once the initial battle for vehicle supremacy is settled. I haven't been following all the tiny tidbit news about halo that came out since the announcement trailer in the past so I guess it's nice to learn a lot of new stuff at once. I'm still skeptical of the 343's storytelling ability, especially when it comes to their portrayal of MC. But it clearly has a lot of things coming together that has built up from the series canon. Profiting off of Bungie's hard work is what they're doing. But I did love how they did the Didact- have to give 'em that.

KH3 hype to the maximum. If you haven't already seen it, I suggest you watch that trailer of them finally showing some gameplay.

I never understood the big talk of E3, but whatever. I thought Nintendo did a good show for what they had. I don't think they were planning on winning it as they tend to release their stuff out little by little. I little bit of FE story and X's release date is all that I asked for.

As for Star Fox 0, re-imaging =/= remake. I'm sure the storyline will flow similarly but levels and such will be different. I haven't played the original Star Fox 64, but this new one intrigues me. It'll be it's own separate entity so don't compare it to 64 until you play it.

As for SMT x FE, it feels like a persona game with FE characters as Personas. It could be really good or it could be really bad depending what direction they go with it.

[Godot 132]

The kingdom hearts trailer was... Okay... It didn't actually show us anything new, the entire thing teased us rather than showed us. Though seeing Xehonort and Eraquis playing chess was kinda cool. I am also a little confused as to why Sora, Donald, and Goofy is a thing.

Watching them play through the first stage of corneria, at lot of it looked like it was ripped directly from the first level of SF64. It's like they're trying to reset the series, and tbh, I'm glad it's a lot closer to the gameplay of starfox 64. The way it flies and handles was better. But it needs to change up the enemies more.

Some potentially good news concerning the horrendous looking "Metroid" game: it's being made by Next Level Sutdios. So no, thankfully it's NOT the game Retro studios has been working on this whole time.

It did show us more of the combat outside of the flashy boats and shit for the keen eye. Like the bazooka Keylblade function. Cuz it can do that now.

And what's a main KH game without the trio? Good? Oh...

Srs pls let us not be stuck with Dolan and gooby it was cool at first but now the charm is wearing thin...

OMFG LAST GUARDIAN FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...Sorry for that, but I've been waiting for this since 2010, and it's been my most-hyped game for that whole 5 years. It looks absolutely AMAZING, and now I'll HAVE to buy a PS4 by 2016. I played both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus and LOVED THEM TO DEATH. SotC is my all-time favorite game right now, and I expect great things from The Last Guardian. I am literally so happy right now, I can't even explain it!

[Jericho 114]

Games I definitely want:

Halo 5

Gears 4

Fallout 4

Kingdom Hearts 3 (Whenever it happens)

FFXV

Doom

I'll admit the whole cockpit concept is really cool from what I've seen. Nintendo is really playing it safe by basing it off the 64 game which isn't necessarily a bad thing. My guess is that if this one succeeds, the successor will replace Assault reviving the series. (Now all they need to do is make an F-zero game).

By the way, that Metroid game looked like crap ngl. It felt more like a third party game trying to convey the name of metriod (let's be honest here, metroid is metroid because you feel alone and isolated).

Then there's that Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi crossover. I've grown less fond of the Mario and Luigi series since Bowser's inside story so I'll probably pass on this one. All I want is a Paper Mario game like TTYD without all these gimmicky attacks and 5-8 party members.

I think sony had the best presentation overall cause for one they kept me interested for a majority of the time and they had a lot of actual gameplay

As for nintendo honestly what ruined it for me was the leaks we pretty much knew what was coming before the direct even started and then what further ruined it for me was seeing a bunch of pokemon and smash bros fan blow up over twitter because then didn't get what they wanted. But nintendo had a decent presentation just no surprise at all

only thing to say about microsoft too much CG

Square didn't looked prepared at all they just re-showed FFVII and kingdom hearts 3 which looks good but then you see the background is completely bare

the first game they showed looked interesting but I was distracted to really get a good look

EA had a good first half all the way up to GW2 then lost it with all the speeches and sports games which took the fun out of star wars for me

I don't like / I'm dissapointed by the fact that Star Fox 0 is apparently a glorified re-make of Star Fox 64 / reboot....

This is what Nintendo has been doing for the pass 20 years, where u been? This is the reason I don't own a Nintendo console or handheld. Nintendo was the very first company to start this foolish trend of remaking games over and over again. I haven't been tracked of Nintendo since 2004, have they created any new IP's since them?

I have to admit though, Star Fox 64 was one of the best games I ever played during my childhood....

Sony won this conference period. Literally my reaction with LAST GUARDIAN

FF7 remake and first on PS4??? I been waiting for this since 2005. The new FF back them didn't really did it for me and the last few ones (FXIII saga did no justice for me). This is the only remake game I would truly pay 60.

Out of all the new IP's coming out Horizon Zero Dawn is a most wanted for me. Definitely one day purchase. Just look at the world man...

Not going to said anything about Fallout4 because everyone will be getting that one including myself

No P5 trailer but it's good. Last Guardian gave me that wow feeling I was waiting for

List:

- Last Guardian

- Horizon Zero Dawn

- Fallout4

- P5

- SF5

- FF7

- BO3 (I love zombies <3)

PS I was really surprise Sony got the DLC first for CoD, anyone predicted that one?

[Maelstrom 312]

Anybody else find it weird that Marth's companions Caeda (aka Shiida) and Cain are two of the three in the SMT x FE game but the one we all expected to be Marth is Chrom?

[Sin! 17]

no pokemon this time :C
