Blown away by how fucking fun that Rabbids game looks, holy shit.

I smell a Best Surprise in the offing!

He'll get it on the list through the Invisible Inc. protocols.

That, Zelda, Horizon and PUBG are the stone-cold locks so far.

Everyone was smiling during it too, even gerstmann.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Horizon will top the list

 

[Data West]

Horizon will top the list

like half the staff started playing it and stopped to play zelda instead

 

[Quonny]

Horizon will top the list

No way. It's PUBG or Mario, assuming it's another Galaxy tier game.

1. Mario
2. PUBG
3. Zelda
4. Horizon
5. Wolfenstein
6. ???
7. ???
8. ???
9. ???
10. Nier

 

[Blitzrules240]

Yakuza will be on that list...

somewhere.

Dumb question. I just got an Android. Is there an easy way to download giantbomb E3 videos to my phone for viewing later so I don't burn thru data?

 

[Antiwhippy]

I love how even mario looks confused about the whole thing.

Get any YouTube downloader, dump the files into the Movies folder, and play with MX Player.

i'm gonna be so disappointed if Elijah Wood's game turns out to be another "escape the room" type game. That or a shooting gallery.

 

[strafer]

fuck this, im out.

havent slept at all the last couple of days...

im catching the archive

 

[OdysseusVA]

like half the staff started playing it and stopped to play zelda instead

and then they stopped before finishing it

horizon is a lock

 

[SeanR1221]

Their reaction to the rabbits game was great

 

[Twin Tails]

you know What's Good™?

Waypoint's E3 podcasts

you mean giantbombfucks.com ?

 

[Aselith]

Mario X-com looks amazing

 

[Xeteh]

Their reaction to the rabbits game was great

Yeah and I can't blame'm. I was laughing my ass off when XCOM kicked in. That game looks fantastic.

 

[Data West]

Jeff sarcastically saying 'half cover' only to have the Ubi dude say 'half cover' immediately afterwards 😙

 

[Zasa]

What was the concensus among the stuff with Nioh?

 

[xXCrazyCostaXX]

Mario Odyssey will be on the list

 

[BTA]

you know What's Good™?

Waypoint's E3 podcasts

Are they just the Periscopes? Might listen instead of watching if so.

I feel bad because I haven't listened to most of Waypoint Radio; they got kinda spoilerly which I'd be ok with but I actually cared about Dishonored 2/FF15 and stopped when they started discussing those, so... it's been a while. And I'm weird and mostly like to listen chronologically for podcasts like this, so I only just started listening again with their pre-E3 episode. I'm looking forward to going into the backlog though; I enjoyed the more serious questions they answered and enjoy their staff a lot.

 

[Aselith]

I love that the Lead Dev was tearing up a bit when Miyamoto and Yves shouted him out too. That must have been a great moment for him

What was the concensus among the stuff with Nioh?

Everyone that played it liked it a lot. I think Jeff and Jason mosltly played it and Brad kept saying it was interesting but never played it iirc

 

[Got]

where's the goddamn stream

 

[BobTheFork]

I can't think of anything that's going to make Son'y conference super note-worthy.

So maybe a new IP makes it a big deal.

I've seen enough GoW, It's a purchase no matter what so I don't care if they show it.

I am really excited to see a follow up to Spiderman so there's that.

This is a weird E3 for me. Lots of very interesting stuff I don't think I'll ever play.

Won't play Mario Rabbids but that was one hell of a reveal. Mario with a gun in a Xcom style cover strat RPG with tech trees and fucking Rabbids. That might be the most surprising reveal at e3 ever to me. Can't think of something I thought I'd see less.


Probably won't play BGAE2. I'm interested to see what the actual game is but I won't count myself among the big fans of the first one.

Online Pirate game looked kind of cool but I'm not marking it on the calendar.

No xbox, so anything from MS is kind of out.

FarCry 4 was ok, but after playing it I considered myself done with Far Cray barring some major gameplay changes. FC5 looks ok but if I'm just skinning, marking guys and climbing towers, you can keep it. The premise seems cool but they may already be backing away from it.

It's not like I expect Sony to 'win' E3

Lots of cool stuff to see this year but very little that's instantly going into the must play column.

 

[Empty Space]

Only Jason played it so... "Lol Jason you're so funny with your action games!" is the best you'll get out of everyone else.

You're an hour early.

I don't even have a sense of who's played it at this point, but I imagine RE7 makes it.

 

[FantasyFreak07]

I hope Spider-Man gets a lengthy demo tonight.

 

[BTA]

Now that I'm caught up on the thread and have looked more at a twitter and all- I'm sorta surprised that a lot of people seemed to know about the Rabbids leak but not that it was XCOM-like? I guess it was stated more clearly in one of the smaller leaks and wasn't as obvious in the internal slides leak, but I'm pretty sure it still did mention tactical stuff there?

 

[Aselith]

Only Jason played it so... "Lol Jason you're so funny with your action games!" is the best you'll get out of everyone else.

Nah Jeff played it and said he liked it too not sure how far he got though

 

[bloodyroarxx]

Jeff sarcastically saying 'half cover' only to have the Ubi dude say 'half cover' immediately afterwards 😙

he face was pretty good at that moment

You're an hour early.

oh, I was going off this schedule

Danny O Dwyer - Youtuber

Can't the guy sitting next to Danny not sit straight when on camera? Stop slouching

 

[mohsinkhan]

Did the Sony stream start?

 

[Okrag]

You're an hour early.

They actually moved their stream up so he's only 30 minutes early.

 

[wesleyshark]

Stream should be starting shortly

 

[TraBuch]

I dunno, Days Gone could be interesting. It wasn't a great demo last year, but reading about the game made it seem like it was a lot more than just a billion zombies on screen at once.

 

[brainzelda]

I can see Last of Us 2 and a demo of Call of Duty and Destiny 2. Bloodborne 2?

 

[Velikost]

Can't the guy sitting next to Danny not sit straight when on camera? Stop slouching

tfw someone doesn't know Rocco

lmao

 

[wesleyshark]

Don't own a Playstation but I'm in this to see more destiny 2 and some red dead hopefully. What other third party titles do they have marketing for aside from COD?

 

[Exterminieren]

The crying Mario dev seems like a real sweetheart.

In 2002, Davide Soliani had discovered that Shigeru Miyamoto, legendary Nintendo games designer, was in his home town of Milan.

He spent days calling around hotels to find out where Mr Miyamoto was staying. When he finally discovered it, Davide camped outside the hotel in the rain for 10 hours to meet him.

12 years later, in 2014, Soliani would meet Miyamoto again. Only this time, he is the creative director at Ubisoft Milan, and now he's pitching the Mario creator a game that combines the Mushroom Kingdom with the crazy world of the Raving Rabbids.

"Three and a half weeks after that internal meeting, we took the opportunity to create a small prototype and present it to Nintendo. When I finally met Mr Miyamoto, the creator of my favourite game and the inspiration of my whole career, I felt like I was divided in two - the passionate Nintendo player, and the Ubisoft creative director. I was split between the urge to ask for an autograph, and the responsibility to represent the game in the most professional way.

"He told us that he was impressed, so it went well, but he kept asking us how it was possible for us to have Mario and Luigi in our game, because they look identical to the Nintendo ones. But the truth is, even if we had just three and a half weeks to come up with that prototype, we decided to recreate Mario and Luigi from scratch. We looked at all the Nintendo games we could, to make sure we translated their essence into our game. And I do believe that it was in that precise moment that we truly convinced Nintendo about our passion and our commitment. "

I want to see whatever Sucker Punch has been up to

 

[Megasoum]

tfw someone doesn't know Rocco

lmao

I don't and from what I'm seeing right now doesn't look like I'm missing much.


But then again.. I never cared for Mega64

 

[Blitzrules240]

OH SHIT THEY MOVED SONY UP.

I GOTTA WRAP UP THE UBI STREAM.

 

[Curufinwe]

Horizon will top the list

Jeff's list maybe.

 

[Staccat0]

I want to see whatever Sucker Punch has been up to

The world is ready for a Sly Cooper reboot tbh.

 

[Curufinwe]

I don't even have a sense of who's played it at this point, but I imagine RE7 makes it.

Didn't only Dan finish it?

 

[Aselith]

God watching this game again, they just sold me a Switch so nice

 

[Teddified]

I want to see whatever Sucker Punch has been up to

same

 

[phanphare]

GotY discussion will be very interesting

I feel like BotW's chances at number 1 are dependent on how hard Brad goes to bat for that game

I hope there's blood this year. last year's GotY conversation was the weak point of all their GotY stuff.

 

[Velikost]

I don't and from what I'm seeing right now doesn't look like I'm missing much.
