Crackdown was fun as shit but man the controls and animation look janky as fuck these days.

 

[soundscream]

It entirely depends on what they do with it. The basic gameplay looks pretty standard, but if they use that format for over-the-top, Fast and Furious-style stunts - it could be a pretty fun time.

I like the concept of an 'action racing' game, and this could fill my desires.

The amount of "takedown shots" and switching to cut scenes just seemed a bit much. Plus the crashes are limited since they are using real car brands.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Timesplitters ain't good, agreed.

I'll put your clearly irrational hatred of Crackdown aside, we can still be buds.

They should include access to the Halo 3 Anniversary Beta which isnt happening.

Halo isn't a thing any more. MS has no huge properties and no new killer franchises. Why would man buy a Scorpio if than can buy a Pro or high end PC?

I hope that was just for the demonstration and not a final thing.

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

i skimmed through some of the ea video and aside from that coop game it was a real boring show.

 

[Death Metalist]

Timesplitters ain't good, agreed.

Look man, TimeSplitters Future Perfect: Virus Mode 4 player splitscreen was the fuckin shit.

 

[disappeared]

Let's not forget TImeSplitters had a fucking custom map maker on a bloody PS2 with a mere 8MB of storage space. I made some cool ass maps.

 

[Zekes!]

Timesplitters ain't good, agreed.

what the fuck

I don't hate Crackdown! What is with people throwing all this hyperbole onto quotes? Sheesh.

[BreezyLimbo]

I only got crackdown to play the halo 3 beta

Crackdown wasnt that good folks, pace yourselves.

 

[Death Metalist]

I left the customization screen of Tekken 7 on for an hour because of the music. This my fuckin jam.

It was the 360's equivalent to ZOE's MGS2 demo.

oh shit, post #1964

DEEPEST LORE

I've seriously wasted a couple hours dicking around with the customization because of that track

that shit is pure HEAT

 

[Salarians]

I bought Dragon Quest VIII mostly for the FFXII demo

it was a good decision

I assume that you're also into the ed banger records catalog?

It's a shame that the customisation is so lacking.

I don't hate Crackdown! What is with people throwing all this hyperbole onto quotes? Sheesh.

To build up a narrative that's in line with what my current level of drunkness wants it to be. Also I was just kidding. Though, why'd you think it was overrated?

 

[Lunar FC]

Duders ripping the men in blazers..smh.

 

[Mutagenic]

Ok, that is surprisingly good. I wouldn't expect that music in a Tekken, but I haven't played one since the ps1 days.

 

[Zekes!]

It's a shame that the customisation is so lacking.

you're not wrong

I'd almost prefer that the customization mode was just that song and nothing else to do.

Some of that Dirt 4 sound I mentioned earlier. Sounds orgasmic while actually playing with full sound quality.

Halo isn't a thing any more. MS has no huge properties and no new killer franchises. Why would man buy a Scorpio if than can buy a Pro or high end PC?

A high end PC is more expensive than a Scorpio and PS4 Pro is less powerful. Kinda pointless to evaluate Scorpio when we're like 12 hours away from learning all the facts, but if you want to watch 4K BluRay or play games in native 4K there's a pretty good case to be made for it. It seems increasingly likely that Scorpio will have the superior version of pretty much every multiplatform console release.

 

[bearythebear]

When do the GB post e3 shows start? tonight?

 

[gogosox82]

I literally had no idea who they were.

 

[therealminime]

When do the GB post e3 shows start? tonight?

Monday or maybe even Tuesday night, once the actual show starts.

There's still console exclusive third party games like Red Dead Redemption 2.


If RDR2 runs at 4K on Scorpio only, that's a big selling point for MS.


But I definitely agree that Microsoft needs to have a major overhaul of their first party situation. It's fucking DIRE right now.

Only America's greatest immigrants.

How many of the YouTubers in the EA Conference actually make gaming videos?

I looked up that dude who fucked up the Need for Speed intro, and he makes Prank videos and lifestyle vlogs. I could not find a singe game-related video on his list of uploads. EA got him simply because they wanted a YouTuber with 10 million subscribers. He didn't even promote his appearance on Twitter or YouTube, so it's not like all those followers were even going to turn up to watch him.

 

[Death Metalist]

Ok, that is surprisingly good. I wouldn't expect that music in a Tekken, but I haven't played one since the ps1 days.

It's actually quite a fun game if you're into fighting games.

I assume that you're also into the ed banger records catalog?

Yes.

Has that been announced?

I thought Rockstar partnered with Sony last time and that worked out well for them. I also don't think 2K will want to leave money on the table. They ain't stupid. GTAV says hello.

 

[TharpDaddy]

It's actually quite a fun game if you're into fighting games.

I barely play fighting games (I played the Soul Calibur that had Yoda and I like Super Smash) and I picked up Tekken. Even without knowing what i'm doing, I really like it. It's a fun game even for people who aren't into fighting games!

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yes.

Hi5.

Been rocking out to Busy P recently,

Console-exclusive......meaning there is no PC version of RDR2 (not the commonly accepted definition of "console exclusive" but I see what he's getting at). So RDR2 on Scorpio will be the definitive version of the game until a PC port gets released. Scorpio will likely have the best versions of FIFA and Madden, since EA doesn't put much effort into PC versions of their sports titles. I don't think they even make Madden on PC.

 

[Mutagenic]

That Tekken song sounds like some of the cool tunes from the Sleeping Dogs soundtrack.

 

[g3tinmyb3lly]

Timesplitters ain't good, agreed.

What is wrong with you people

As of right now there's no PC version announced. I'm sure it'll end up there eventually, barring some catastrophic fuck up like the first game, but until then... the best version being on Scorpio is a selling point, I think.

 

[disappeared]

Didn't the RDR2 ad that aired on TV late last year specifically show the ps4 logo?

 

[Mutagenic]

What is wrong with you people

Dude, I was knee deep into Quake 3 online a year before the first Timesplitters even hit. It was too hard for me to go backwards like that.

 

[ScaryShark]

Didn't the RDR2 ad that aired on TV late last year specifically show the ps4 logo?

Yeah. They have the marketing deal.

 

[firehawk12]

40 pages just for the EA conference?

 

[Megasoum]

 

[Onivulk]

Gotta driveby here and just say Timesplitters is great and some of you people are out of your damn minds.

 

[funkystudent]

Goldeneye, perfect dark and time splitters all sucked.

This is fact. Let's move on and play quake like grown ups

 

[Twin Tails]

wat

40 pages just for the EA conference?

and why the dudes are so jaded
and whether brad is leaving

 

[alr1ght]

Dave Lang wishes he published games as good as Devolver.

I am really curious what the Devolver Digital press conference will be like.

 

[border]

Wow. I didn't know Dave Lang died. He probably developed a heart condition after someone doxed him on a livestream.
