Anyone want to do a BCT E3 betting game?

Will it be the best E3 ever?

Will it be the worst E3 ever?

Neither, it'll be in the middle. Pushed back games means it'll be a lot of footage to keep us interested. Room for indies to give reveals. Nintendo could have used this to actually give a presentation. Ride the success of MK8.

But honestly, I think this E3 will be for Destiny and PlaystationNOW, and the VR tech. I don't know about PC/Xbox since I don't follow them.

Oh, Deep Down as well. I don't know if we have a date, but given our luck thus far, probably somewhere in 2015
 
"Oh they a business" is a thought solves all my questions for many an industry. Companies are not my friend, they have a product and if i like it I will buy it. That is the extant of our relationship. Folks needs to learn that.

But Slay! Sony cares about me man. I mean they're "4 the gamers"! Surely a company that speaks like that will remember my favorite color and that time I fell off my bike!

Destiny is the only thing in the future that got me Devo hot. Playstation Now could be the next big thing, all depends on the pricing.
Everyone getting out of the way of Smash U

It's gonna sell well into the thousands
Will do better than Bayonetta.

I really hope Nintendo steps their game up by the time Bayonetta 2 comes out.

Slay.. DoFP or Winter Soldier?

I am bias so I will say Winter Soldier. I always been meh on movie X-men. A universe of characters, and it all comes back to Wolverine, Mystique, and Wolverine.

But I will say this X-men is the movie most like their comics. Confusing continuity, time travel, shit just not explained or just dropped.

I kind of put DoFP in the same basket as Amazing Spider-Man (but for different reasons).

The pacing and character arcs of the movie, along with the cinematography were really enjoyable (unlike Spidey). But the movie basically asks you to turn off all common sense in how the story relates to the past films, how it would affect time and the availability/use of certain characters. Meanwhile, Spidey is just a pretty bad movie, where DoFP is a good one, but gets the characters really well and at least makes sense in it's trite plot.

I think Winter Soldiers gets it all right.

Eh, not interested in Batman at the moment, Batman AA was the only one I was able to playthrough. But it's good they delayed it. Smash and Bayo 2 for Wii U, and Destiny, Evolve for PS4, and Smash for 3DS. Depending on my mood I might wait till Bayo's cheaper. I would've spent $60 on it when there weren't that many games out. It's a hard sell to me now.

I can't remember what else comes out this year. Smash will be the best of the bunch for though. I hate games.

I think Winter Soldier is pretty clearly the best this year, but DOFP is close behind.

I don't mind ignoring certain plot holes regarding time travel and the previous movies (like Byakuya mentioned above) because theoretically the story going forward will be consistent and hopefully avoid future retcons.

I like where New Class was going is showing other Mutants as a threat. Not just Magneto and his band of nuts. I mean Feds had bad mutants in that truck without giant robots. X-3 should have had some other bad guys. The Hellfire club or The Shadowking.

Cap 2 had better pacing and stuff. I really like both and they're honestly not far apart. X-Men has more blatant flaws, but I think I'd give it the slight edge. Only because of how generic the final act of Cap 2 got, except for that great scene with Cap and TWS that had a great payoff to a scene showed not too long before that fight. It gave me the feels. X-Men gave me more feels at the end though.

Blink made fights in DoFP soooo dope though.

Blink was the low key favorite mutant in DOFP.

I might honestly get Wii U this year and get ps4 early next year this point
 
It's obvious that ppl are starved for anything yet all these games avoiding the yearly's again for some reason. It'll be bullshite if February isn't jam packed or else you fuck yourself too far into the next year

Very good analysis IMO.

But dat Trouble Man from WS pushed Cap 2 over the feels threshold for me. I love that song so much now

Is "social justice warrior" the new buzzword for privileged, straight, white and male basement dwellers who are afraid of their views being challenged?

It's also for people are who are just assholes and want to dismiss any sort of power imbalance short of gang rape or racial genocide.

In a word, yes.

At first, I thought it meant to criticize the sort of shallow activism we sometimes see on social networks. But even if that was the original intent, it quickly turned into "easy way to dismiss people saying things I don't like."

I like how the last three games are the ones I'm really interested in.

I got no faith in Dragon Age: Inquisition

Shit is fucked up. It is one of those phrases that instantly identities an asshole.
