[xxracerxx]

Did they even talk about Yakuza Kiwami, out in like 2 months?

There was a brief glimpse in a sizzle reel, or maybe that was another game.

 

[Tagyhag]

Highlights of E3 so far

Mario x Rabbids x Xcom
Dragon Ball Z at a major conference
Microsoft is selling a new Duke controller
SOTC Enhanced Edition

Yeah.... rough year.

Yeah there was maybe 2-3 announcements that hyped me up.

Had fun watching but definitely not as good as last year.

We still got Nintendo but...Idk we'll see.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

arrogant sony is back yall

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdGY_espq8I&t=7m33s

 

[Ulumsk]

Devolver > Ubisoft > Sony/Microsoft > Bethesda > Electronic Arts

Nintendo?

 

[Santiako]

If they are going to do this kind of conference, they should just follow the Nintendo Direct model and save on the theatre.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Pretty much but we didn't even get to see TLOU2.

Yeah I thought we would see a gameplay demo for a 2018 release.

 

[Officerrob]

But guys who won?

We all lost

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

But guys who won?

 

[hamchan]

I liked how Ubisoft ended the conference by bringing a whole bunch of people on stage. Like hey, real people actually make video games and deserve some of the spotlight.

 

[K.Sabot]

fun thing is we definitely know what is either going to open or close NEXT year's conference.

Last of Us 2

also arrogant sony has been back since the cross playform play thing

 

[kiguel182]

If the Switch didn't exist I would almost interested in picking up an Xbox S. Switch is the priority of course.

 

[faridmon]

Why in the world would a baby's first X-com with obnoxious humor/character be game of the show?

So you are one of those, huh...

Do you also make fun of people who watch ''kiddie'' Pixar films too?

 

[Fox Mulder]

There are a lot of cool games coming out but fuck were these things boring.

We knew about a bunch of stuff already, and why have events just to show trailers for games a year out. Both MS and Sony also spent time showing long gameplay of fucking zombie games.

 

[Aselith]

But guys who won?

That Mario X Rabbids lead dev and Jason

 

[therealminime]

I liked how Ubisoft ended the conference by being a whole bunch of people on stage. Like hey, real people actually make video games and deserve some of the spotlight.

Definitely. It added a lot to it. Seeing humans. Seeing that dev on the Mario/Rabbids game crying. Stuff like that adds so much for me.

 

[Intheflorsh]

You missed some good games in the first half of 2017.

Oh well.

 

[MassiveNights]

I mean the Sony conference wasn't blowaway but let's not pretend Microsoft wasn't pretty awful.

Forza looked cool, Sea Of Thieves looked OK for what it is and Crackdown looked fucking horrendous and most of the rest wasn't really theirs to show.

Wolfenstein still the best shit.

 

[Roussow]

What do we know about Sucker Punch?

 

[ghostmind]

Microsoft and Ubi are my picks this year.

Everything else was underwhelming, except for a few moments such as Wolfenstein.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

For the position Sony is in

it was indeed a severely underwhelming conference.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

That Mario X Rabbids lead dev and Jason

yeah

nothing captured my heart like the guy in tears at meeting his hero.

 

[wesleyshark]

1. Ubisoft
2. Microsoft
3. Bethesda
4. Sony

43786. EA

(I didn't see the devolver one yet)

 

[Zaph]

Once again Ubi has the best overall presser

Wolfy is game of show (unless Nintendo blows the doors off the new SMT)

 

[xxracerxx]

The GB guys are right, no conference was stellar and it all came down to individual games.

 

[kiguel182]

I liked how Ubisoft ended the conference by bringing a whole bunch of people on stage. Like hey, real people actually make video games and deserve some of the spotlight.

The whole focus on people was really nice.

Sonys artsy bullshit was bad.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Devolver > Ubisoft > Sony/Microsoft > Bethesda > Electronic Arts

Nintendo?

Ubisoft > Bethesda > Microsoft > Sony > EA > Devolver

 

[faridmon]

We still got Nintendo but...Idk we'll see.

Nintendo has a 30 min slot. I am not expecting anything major

 

[Salarians]

 

[Twin Tails]

NIGHT SHOW HYPE

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Ubisoft > Bethesda > Microsoft > Sony > EA > Devolver

I think this is correct.

 

[Mr. F]

Tearful Mario x Rabbids creative director was a very sweet thing

 

[broncobuster]

Mario x Rabbids x Xcom

SOTC Enhanced Edition



Yeah.... rough year.

More or less.

It probably speaks more for my tastes, my across Sony and Microsoft, the two most exciting things were...hey you can play original Xbox games on XB1 and a remake of a PS2 game.

Wolfenstein 2 and God of War look dope. Mario x Rabbids, DBZ, and Spider-Man look really cool.

 

[K.Sabot]

can't wait until the real e3 starts

where everyone shits on these conferences for 3+ hours on a couch while drinking

 

[Harp]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

 

[Chumley]

Ubisoft > Bethesda > Microsoft > Sony > EA > Devolver

This is the correct list, but Wolfenstein is still my number 1 game of show.

 

[hamchan]

Ubisoft > Bethesda > Microsoft > Sony > EA > Devolver

Please.

Devolver > Ubisoft > Bethesda > Microsoft > Sony > EA > Devolver

 

[Infinite Justice]

The GB guys are right, no conference was stellar and it all came down to individual games.

Indeed.

 

[Tagyhag]

Nintendo has a 30 min slot. I am not expecting anything major

Yeah that's why I'm so cautious.

I'm sure it'll be a packed 30 minutes but that's so short.

And I don't know what they could do to blow me away.

Spoiler

A new F-Zero

 

[Hindl]

All in all it was a boring year but if Nintendo says they're bringing the Radiant Fire Emblem games to the switch, i'll be happy.

Spoiler

The old games are the good games

I'd be shocked if we heard about any FE besides Warriors

They really were. Everyone made fun of them for not having a stage presence at E3 but they were smart as heck to not even bother with it and just do directs whenever they want.

And again when they switched to the Digital Event with the Treehouse after. Other people are starting to do the stream after conference to show off games thing, like Ubi with AssCreed and MS with Sea of Thieves this year

 

[wesleyshark]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

Many games that were shown off a year ago or were already known.

 

[OdysseusVA]

devolver was shit

literally twitch chat in human form

 

[Atilac]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

Which were already announced

 

[Wunder]

did the GB stream die when they were saying goodbye

 

[Death Metalist]

TLOU2 wasnt on last years E3, it was PSX, no?

Yeah but we didn't get a tease or anything. Here's what Druckmann said on Twitter.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

The GB guys are right, no conference was stellar and it all came down to individual games.

Was listening to the 1099 podcast earlier today from about a week ago and Jeff kinda predicted what he echoed at the end of tonight's stream, that this was a very "mid-gen" type series of conferences.

 

[Tagyhag]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

How many of those games were shown for the first time? Full exclusives? Were actually great?

It wasn't that amazing of a conference.

 

[funkystudent]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

They showed the same games last year.

They still dont have dates for them a year later.


Thats dumb as fuck.

 

[kpaadet]

So you are one of those, huh...

Do you also make fun of people who watch ''kiddie'' Pixar films too?

Guess I'm one of those try hards that enjoy depth in my SRPGs, and I would absolutely make fun of someone watching a Rabbids animated movie unironically.

 

[DeadlyVirus]

Sony showed alot of games that looked great that most of which are exclusive to their system. And everyone is complaining?

Yeah, because showing new games you can play anywhere else is going to convince me to buy a console you are trying to promote is the way to go by the logic of a few people

 

[Karspankey]

That is way too much money for a console.

It's only $100 more than the Pro and $200 more than Switch, lol. The fuckin PSVR is $500 too. People are treating the price like it's $800 or something. This isn't even including the fact that many people will be trading/selling old consoles.
