Seems that there's a lot of big hype around E3 this year. So far, Sony has won with what they've dropped as primary exclusives.

FFVII Remake:

However, Microsoft brought it too with Halo:

And with Gears of War:

Then they have this mindtrip with Hololens:

So far 2015-16 is going to be REALLY heavy in gaming. I don't think my wallet can handle it all LOL.

[Hehe]

God damn... they actually did it. A proper remake to FF7 and produced by no other than Tetsuya Nomura!!!

What the fuck has the COD franchise turned into? I thought that was a gameplay trailer for something like Unreal Tournament.

The last good CoD game imo was CoD 4/Modern Warfare. Many hours were spent playing CoD 2 as well.

[Hondaracer]

Halo and GoW.. 2 franchises i couldnt care less for

[dub.g]

i backed up shenmue 3 on kickstarter.. its already passed the million mark 2 hours since they announce it

[jerche]

i think one of microsoft's biggest announcement is their backwards compatibility on the xbox one, other than that, sony wins by far!

[Tr1ll]

These are looking good so far. Ubisoftl..please don't disappoint

ugh, the last guardian announced in 2009 isn't coming to the PS3 at all...i know the development retooled for PS4 recently but was hoping they'd still release a gimped version on the aging console
i hate japanese developers
don't get me started on how FF Vs XIII announced in 2006 as a PS3 exclusive will come out more than a decade later as FF XV
not to mention Polyphony Digital taking 6 years to make GT5 only to carry over 80% of PS2 models

[pinn3r]

DARK SOULS 3 YOOOOOOO

[Retrac]

That FF 7 trailer, so much nostalgia. And such a tease.

[Canadian Rider]

GHOST RECON WILDLANDS :fuckyea:

PS4 finally supports MKV and has a proper media player :bowdown:

Microsoft killed it at E3, they clearly won.

XBO backwards compatibility - SUPER stoked for this! Forza 4 is by far my favorite 360 game of all time. That was one feature I really wanted because my 360 is about to crap out and I have a huge library of 360 games.

[Side note: I'm a little disappointed that neither consoles had a price drop. The XBO is nice but not $350 nice. ($350 gets you a console and controller. Console+controller and bundled game is $400)]

Forza 6 reveal - No real gameplay but glad to see a sequel already. Rain physics look top notch and I did spot a classic car, so hopefully there will be more 'regular' cars and overall a greater selection of cars pre-DLC. Tire wall physics are kickass. Between this, Assetto Corsa and Project CARS, Gran Turismo 7 has a lot to measure up to. Polyphony Digital needs to bring their A game.

Sony's conference was at times painful to watch. Watching them end again with Uncharted 4 was expected and to top it off, they had technical difficulties and had to reboot the game. Sadly, no mention of GT7.

New Hitman!

Final Fantasy VII remake and Shenmue 3 though. Not sure why they need a kickstarter for it, Sony can easily fund it.

Black Ops 3 was a yawn-fest. Another futuristic shooter.

Horizon and Last Guardian look sick.

_________________________________________________

Bethesta - Fallout 4. That is all.

EA & Ubisoft

Mirrors Edge: Catalyst - It looks amazing! I can't wait to play it.

South Park: Fractured but Whole - Love how they got Matt and Trey on stage. I loved Stick of Truth and if FbW follows the same formula with extra goodies, it will definitely score 9.5 on gamespot (lol).

Need for Speed - A worthy successor to NFS Underground 2. This game is a complete reboot. Love the customization, gameplay looks solid but the camera is disorienting. It tilts during drifts. I can finally customize my own ricebunny FRS and paint it midnight purple.

[ForbiddenX]

Was looking at preordering some of the games but then they're $80CAD new? That's pretty pricey even AFTER conversion. Games are still $60USD down south.

[MarkyMark]

I never understood why backwards compatibility is such a big deal. I bought the next gen console to play next gen games, and people act like this won E3 for Microsoft.

better load times and sometimes the games have better upscale graphics.

I have a 360 with over 100 games, with half Ive never touched yet lol. no need really to upgrade to the xbox one yet BUT this could be a deal changer for me.

[GLOW]

lots of classics/older games that are fun to play were not released on current gen systems.

[bcrdukes]

I don't really game, but seeing Nintendo bring back Earthbound sure brought back some memories. :)

people just rather prefer they have 1(sony) or 2(microsoft/nintendo) latest consoles connected to their tv as oppose to having 3 or 4 just to play old games

hot damn

[SkinnyPupp]

I don't own either console, and don't care one bit who "wins" or "loses" E3. But to me if Sony launching a fucking kickstarter campaign at their E3 conference is pretty much an auto-lose. FailFish

[twitchyzero]

were there any sleeper hit/lesser known exclusives on xbox 360? adding backwards compat is an excellent value but 99% of them were also available on PC. Gears and Halo is getting remastered so you don't need BC. Unless Forza 5 and 6 is considered a downgrade to the first 4 or if you wanna play Gears 2+3 and Halo Reach those are the only ones I can think of, the 360 actually has very few exclusives?

It wasn't Sony directly doing the Kickstarter campaign for Shenmue 3. The creator was originally working with Sega, who stopped providing funding for the game, killing it off for these many years. For the record, they hit their 2 million goal already, and the game is also being released on PC. For the highest-tier backing, supposedly one of the artists for Pokemon bought the slot.

[fsy82]

COD franchise has gone to shit. Double jumping and walking on walls..WTF is this shit. I was a huge fanboy up until last years game.

[Hondaracer]

I don't really game, but seeing Nintendo bring back Earthbound sure brought back some memories. :)

Where is this info?

Not Earthbound or Mother 3, but getting close!:

Square broke the emergency case for FF7

Buy off Amazon. If you get at least 2 games, you can get 20% off, 3 or more games gives you 30% off.

Second this.

And the BC on Xbone is not plug and play. The dev has to allow it first. And you can bet any dev planning on remaster their 360 games to limit such a function.

IMHO Sony destroyed this E3. They took the biggest dreams for gamer from the last decade (except HL3, fuck you Valve)and made them true; all 3 of them in a single conference.

[twitchyzero]

this had the most wow factor for me...some originality in the post-apocalyptic genre that's been overdone
from the guys that made Killzone, it's what Enslaved should've been like
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkg5UVTsKCE

the new Ghost Recon looks very appealing too, but ubisoft so not gonna get my hopes up
every game seems to be going the open-world route now, open-world doesn't equate quality and linear games doesn't equate to garbage.

[Mr.Money]

uncharted looks good again,i enjoy that series so much.
Black ops 3 looks fucking dumb,i'm also one of those people who got sick of the Future warfare.

When they were revealing Horizon I was actually excited for the story, it seemed very unique compared to the whole zombie or virus outbreaks. Really looking forward to it.

pretty good deal...but yeah, was pretty surprised that some games started off at $80.
i ended up po'ing Uncharted4/FFXV/Fallout 4.
Thought about battlefront but fuckkit, i'd rather see how it does first.
with the discount it averaged to ~$56/game so still a decent deal.

so stoked for the ffvii remake...they finally caved. They better not fuck this up or drag it on.

[meowjinboo]

I'm pretty excited for Mass effect 4!

It's nice that Nintendo announced Starfox but don't feel so hyped up about it. Read some reviews that the controls are quite complicated.

I believe they should of remastered Starfox assault running a different engine, as the previous mechanics on that game were pretty sloppy, even though the voice acting and story line was good.

[MarkyMark]

Nintendo is a joke, they're too busy working on their next system and more games for their 3DS to care about the Wii U

E3 2015 - Best Buy Canada (http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/E3.aspx?fullsite=true&CMP=RZ-150617-E3TRIG)

I guess if anyone wants to go local, or whatnot lol, i do have a coupon for today only(i know its kinda late). Just shoot me a PM!

[6o4__boi]

well...:pokerface:

ended up preordering ff7, nfs, u4, fallout4, ffxv, mass effect andromeda
off that e3 deal on amazon.

that escalated quickly.

[mickz]

Pre-ordered Arkham Knight and Super Mario Maker. Hope Arkham Knight carries off where Asylum and City left off because Origins sucked.

[Mr.Money]

Amazon has being running the pre-order game lately for the cheapest deal,last year i paid around 45 dollars for new releases while i seen walmart selling x2 the price :fuckyea:

[mr_chin]

FFVII Remake:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kznek1uNVsg


Don't expect this for at least the next 4 - 5 years. Square enix has been releasing their hit titles rather slow these past few years. My anticipation for Kingdom Hearts 3 have almost gone to 0.

[underscore]

The only new game that I have interest in atm is Uncharted 4, but that said I'm waiting til I hear good reviews after release before I buy anything. 5 years is a long gap and as much as I like Naughty Dog a lot of companies have been releasing garbage lately.

What the fuck has the COD franchise turned into? I thought that was a gameplay trailer for something like Unreal Tournament.

It looks like they took a bunch of common cheats people with modded consoles used to use and put them in as part of the game. The character movement and modelling looked bloody awful for a next-gen game.

[urrh]

Nintendo is a joke, they're too busy working on their plastic doll scam and more games for their 3DS to care about the Wii U

fixed it for you

[Traum]

I'll believe the FF7 remake when I see it on the shelf. :rukidding:

On a separate note, I seriously envy you guys still having time to play video games.

[dub.g]

bestbuy extended their 20% off pre order until 25th

i ordered all my stuff from amazon, i own all 3 consoles so pre ordered halo 5, uncharted 4, mario maker, star fox, rise of tomb raider and arkham knight.. signed up for that amazon prime trial so i get that 1 day shipment..

fuck and i still got MGS Collectors ed pre ordered.. as much as i want battlefront, ill hold off launch week or a month.. its going to be a big game with lots of ppl playing so expect server crashes
