Huh. Sony confirms the Neo won't be at E3. Probably gonna focus on VR, mentioning the Neo might confuse people into thinking they need it for VR.

 

Looks like Halo Wars 2 might be announced soon and have an open beta available almost immediately.

Here's an album full of pictures. No word yet if it is console exclusive or if it will be avilable on PC, which I hope it will be.

Also, an announcement for a Call of Cthulhu game.

 

Didn't even realize a game called Yooka-Laylee was coming out, the spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie that is being developed by former Rare team members.

Kazooie was such a fun platformer and the teaser looks good. More than anything I hope the script writer is similar to the one Rare used to have. Banjo-Kazooie wasn't only a fun game to play it was witty and you got a laugh from the narration as well.

Looking forward to a lot of other games too, Zelda looks awesome, but I only just saw Yooka-Laylee and thought it was worth a mention.

 

Only game I'm intrested in is Bannerlord. Haven't enjoyed Bioware's recent games, so I most likely won't be buying Andromeda.

 

Really? Some gameplay snippets and that's it for Mass Effect?

 

LOL OKAY MOURINHO AT THE EA PRESS CONFERENCE

 

The Respawn Star Wars action adventure is apparently focused on a 'different era'.

 

I've never really enjoyed watching the broadcasts of E3, just catching the news about what's happening afterwards was enough for me.

TotalBiscuit broadcasting a "snarkathon" on Twitch over the E3 feed, though, is amazingly entertaining.

 

I guess if you find him funny, power to you.

Here's 3 seconds of concept from Visceral's SW game.

 

EA conf:

Xbox can't be happy about losing exclusivity for Titanfall.

Madden derp derp snore.

Andromeda looks like pure sex, even though basically just another cinematic trailer.

FIFA story mode derp derp snore.

Fe.... meh.

No new Star Wars reveals other than concrete dates.

Battlefield cinematic trailer to close out.

Blrrrrrggg thanks for that snoozefest, EA. Probably could have just streamed Battlefield gameplay and would have been more interesting.




Bethesda:

Never cared about Quake. Still don't.

Some random Fallout noise.

Prey looks kinda neat.

Haven't cared about Doom in a long time.

I never got into ES online.

Upgraded Skyrim could tempt me into a replay.

Dishonored 2 still looking crazy cool. I'm a tad worried some of Emily's powers will make the game a little too easy, but not a big issue.

 

I didn't really care about Bethesda's conference, the only game of note being Dishonoured 2, but that's out real soon and I'm getting it anyway.

I heard Fallout 4 and Doom are coming out exclusive to Vive in 2017? Hilarious for different reasons, I can't see Doom not being a vommit simulator, and Fallout's glitchyness in VR sounds equally as nauseating.

 

Battlefield trailer was hit-and-miss. The visuals were awesome, it showed some interesting gameplay, but the music was a fucking disgrace. Seriously? Fucking rap/electronic/whatever its called? When you have badass In Flanders Fields?

 

If you thought to just ignore the Microsoft press conference, leaks are saying there'll be a Final Fantasy XV stage demo there.

 

Corvo has not aged well.

But actually torn between whether I'll be Emily or Corvo first, unfortunately I'll be overseas when the games released so won't touch it until Feb next year.

 

I'm not very sure, but I think the guy who is playing the Final Fantasy demo is losing.

Looks like they are also adding open access to Xbox. Really don't like that.

Halo Wars 2 is coming for Windows 10 and Xbone and even released the open beta right now. Unfortunately, the open beta is only for Xbone.

Seems like Microsoft is kinda killing it at this conference tbh.

 

New uber Xbone with the best pixels.

Clocked at 6 teraflops. So somewhere around the 980. Only one generation behind PC's this time so that's nice for them.

 

Of all the games shown thus far, We Happy Few is the only one I'm curious about.

I really want to see some gameplay videos.

 

That girl is a fucking pro shopper. I would not have thought to go to upcoming games.

Also, we happy few is already out on early access for steam if you can play it there.

 

Not a fan of early access. I'd rather wait for the whole game to release.

Anyway, I was wrong, there's something more that piqued my interest:

Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord E3 2016 Siege Gameplay Extended

 

Microsoft:

I don't really know why I watch the Microsoft conference. For teh lulz i guess.

Surprise surprise new xbone.

Gears gameplay - Let's stand in the open as we get shot!!!

People still play Forza?

Recore does look fun.

FFXV combat still looking good, if a little clunky. Hopefully story delivers as well.

Xbox version of PS4 communities.

Looking for Group and Arena sound like great functions. Hope Sony copycats this.

Custom controllers is neat.

We Happy Few looks creepy as fuck.

lulz. gwent.

Tekken cinematic didn't look very next gen.

Scalebound = playable shounen anime ?

Project Scorpio.... hmmm. Not sure if it's supposed to be Xbox's answer to Neo or an entirely new gen console. The pitch was not very specific.
