E3 2017 -Official Thread of Games and HYPE-

[Tetsujin]

So, given that I mostly stay up at night and had a nap before MS I guess there's a good chance I'll be awake for Bethesda and Devolver.

6/7am though, jeez.

 

[Lex]

I'm gonna try and stay awake for it too, if only so I'm more awake during Sony's conference tomorrow night/ Tuesday morning.

 

[Tetsujin]

Sony's brutal too because I can't go to bed afterwards. I have an appointment at 9am v_V

 

[Lex]

You can totally grab a few hours sleep Tets.

That said I hope you can't. Because I hope you're too excited to sleep. Because I hope something really good happens at Sony's conference. But I'm trying to keep my expectations in check

 

[Tetsujin]

Since it's finished now:

 

[Lex]

There's a rumour going around that a Shadow of the Colossus remake is going to make an appearance at Sony's conference. It's one of those NeoGAF leaker things so take with a pinch of salt, but there you go

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Bethesda did really solidly, especially with it being basically ALL games, and everything coming out this year. Super good stuff.

Devolver was bizarre as fuck

Started out as "oh they're taking the piss out of conferences, this might be kinda funny" but like

what

even

what the fuck?

?????


?!?!?!??!?

 

[X-SOLDIER]

(When was that? I don't think I saw it).

Also, is it bad that I just wanna keep calling the upgraded Microsoft system either the "Xbox 9" (Xbox IX), or the "Edge Box" (xXboxoneXx)?

I loved how they tried to throw out game after game after announcing the specs, but unfortunately, it was rather flat and didn't leave much of an impact. As someone who goes where the games are, this has done nothing to persuade me to pick up an Xbox again. Pretty much only 3 games held my attention, only 1 of which was an exclusive: the stunning pixel-art of The Last Night (which I can ultimately get on PC), Anthem (which is on PS too), and Battlegrounds.

 

[SeaDragon]

Ready to wait 3 am for Sony finally.

Spoiler

Give me at least Devil May Cry 5 and I'll be done.

Shadow of the Colossus remake is the new FFVII remake or Shenmue 3 maybe in a few years.

 

[Tetsujin]

(When was that? I don't think I saw it).

It was directly after Bethesda.

 

[Carlie]

Bethesda was decent, TEW2 and Wolfenstein 2 trailers were pretty cool but they should never do their conference so late again.

 

[Lex]

A spreadsheet from someone on NeoGAF analysing Microsoft's conferences:

It's a downward trend, and that's a shame.

Yup. Totally missed it. xP

[Lex]

You didn't miss much. As Easy Allies put it, "post-ironic gone too far". It was funny at first until it became irritating.

 

[Geostigma]

I was totally let down lol.

I saw that like Star aesthetic they had on their screen and was really hoping the Starfield rumors would be confirmed and we might get a reveal.

Well atleast Evil Within 2 and Wolfenstein look good.

 

[Tetsujin]

Wolfenstein looked pretty cool. Never played any of them before though

PC Gaming Show starts in 13 minutes. We're not planning on streaming right? I remember last year it was like 3 hours and kinda boring
I'll leave it on in the background. I'm just killing time until Ubi and Sony.

 

[Carlie]

Link to the PC stream for anyone interested.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Echo Arena is totally Ender's Game in VR. The Zero-G movement using your hands seems cool as hell.

SotC doesn't need a remake, it only just got a HD re-release

 

[Lex]

Ubisoft conference starting in 10

TLS stream going live in 5

 

[X-SOLDIER]

(Gonna be in a meeting for work. Here's to hoping for decent highlights & not missing anything massive).

Over 8 years ago.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

I feel like I shouldn't want to build model ships and play them in a video game as much as Starlink is making me want to right now. Like... it seems mega gimmicky, but I genuinely totally want it.
