Xbox showed some games (Some were pretty decent, Scalebound is really making me want to try out the new game) End of the conference they announced the Xbox S (Slim, apple style) And guess what? Project Scorpio with large words, trust me, I know words, I know big words that words are good, and that's slated for next Holiday 2017. I GUESS the only good thing about that was all the things we have so far (Controllers/accessories) will work for the two new consoles. (4k/VR upgrade mostly) But man, way too fucking early for this fucking console upgrades. |

Hopefully Sony comes up with something in turn... I liked Bethesda's conference. It's an off-year for their main studio, so it was pretty much handed off to their subsidiaries this time around. The big upset was with them finally revealing the Skyrim Special Edition. Everything else they talked about was already known. Dishonored 2 looks nice, but we saw it at last year's E3 and they didn't bring anything to really WOW gamers with during the gameplay demo. Microsoft's conference had some good shit. I like the S model, but with the Scorpio reveal at the end, it's kind of an odd time to want an S, since the Scorpio (just call it the Xbox One Elite already, Microsoft) is going to be the model to have. I disliked the teaser trailer for most of the games due to the soundtrack choices, but I was impressed with Sea of Thieves and the potential for some really fun multiplayer shenanigans. I like the look of Forza Horizon 3, and I think with VR it will be a fucking amazing title. The cross-play platform is also a huge plus for MS players, enabling players on PC to join multiplayer lobbies with Xbox One players. |

Group: Advanced Members Posts: 13,455 Member No.: 1,473 Joined: Mar 18th 2004 Location: Update Profile | Horizon 3 looks great, I thought it was gonna be just a forza game, or maybe like a mix of horizon and the regular one, maybe call it Forza World (I would love to see that, being able to drive to race tracks (On and off paved road) and just get ready for a race) Sea of Thieves looked fun, though we only saw a small area of it, I would love to see if we can go to big towns, or if we can build/hire people to build our own town on the islands. That one game (Was it recore?) Looked good. Decent year, SE Skyrim maybe a buy if it's like 30 bucks or something. Now we wait for Sony. |

Reminder that if you have Prime, Amazon cuts 20% retail on games, as well. For pre-orders, anyway. This post has been edited by Seri on Jun 13 2016, 01:54 PM | ||

Living in the woods when it's raining in the dark. Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,500 Member No.: 36,931 Joined: Jan 25th 2011 Location: Update Profile | Well, the new Zelda game will be released on the Wii U and the NX, where the NX will probably released at the same time. Looks like it will be the last game from Nintendo on the Wii U. I don't think many people will get it for the Wii U when they can play it in better graphics on the NX. It's a similar situation when the Wii was released. Not even one year remains until the NX release and I still have some games I want to play on my recently bought Wii U. Not that I'm going to buy it on the release date already... |

The key is in the new controller. They're already talking with other platforms to make the new controller, which has bluetooth, compatible in order to support streaming from the console. Think about playing your games on something besides a television. Phone? Done. Tablet? Yep. Macbook? Sure. By extending Xbox Live into multiplatform, they're taking up a much larger space for players to mingle and play together. |

Only thing mentioned was call of duty, being in space again. |

Join the Empire today! Or die, rebel scum! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 13,455 Member No.: 1,473 Joined: Mar 18th 2004 Location: Update Profile | From a video I saw about sony, they sorta didn't really do much, didn't give no 'neo' preview, just games, that's about it. But after seeing some videos of Battlefield 1, it looks so sexy. Granted the armor/vehicle stuff was a bit OP and the driver (From whatI understood him) gets switched to a engineer kit or something, and that only engineers can control the vehicles or something. I need to watch it again because it was a bit confusing from him. Either way, i'll see what they offer to us new in the beta. ALSO, Halo WArs 2 Beta is pretty good, sorta made me remember of the first one, but if I keep playing it more i'll get used to it. First and only game I started we won because we capped control points. lol |

Then we should have Silent Hills then. I'm just curious to see what emerges from Kojima's mind when he's not shackled to Konami. I liked the Sony conference overall. Glad to see Last Guardian have an October release. I was alittle disappointed to not get anymore FF7 Remake footage. I didn't know what to really think of Resident Evil 7. It looked like Capcom was completely ripping off P.T., and Saw. Granted, it looks like there will be some old school RE puzzles in the game. Battlefield 1 has also peeked my interest now.
