loll i wanna be the MS guy who has to give a 2 hour presentation

"uhhhhhhhhhh geeeeeeears?"

there will probably be plenty of multiplatform stuff they paid extra to get on their show just so we can all go 'neat, i'll buy that on something else instead of getting a fuckin xbone'

so yeah cyberpunk will probably be there

Mircosoft was mad that press was getting to see them get owned by sony within like a 3 hr period and moved to sunday to get a full news cycle of their message.

Ea didnt want to pay esa fees so they made their own e3 with blackjack and lootboxes

it's also probably easier on the journalists who are there to get most of the conferences out of the way by the time the floor opens up and they have to start bouncing from meeting-to-meeting all day

in case you haven't had enough here's another 13 minutes of bioware devs trying and failing to have anything exciting to say about anthem

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N5rw-FTqg8

for people who don't feel like watching what they talk about in the story is how a long time ago there was a lost civilization who left behind amazing technology and now different factions want to find the lost civilization technology. what a great pitch for a sci-fi story!

there was a little pop-up in the hud about a world event when the player got near that giant monster, i think it was just them subtly showing off that world events are a thing for a sec before moving on and not an indicator of flight being on-rails

Brother Entropy
Dec 27, 2009

it's still real surreal to me that anthem is a bioware game, the appeal of their games has almost always been the story and the characters papering over some middling gameplay

and now EA's forcing them to do a multiplayer loot game

I feel like I know nothing about it. I mean obviously it's just another Halo game but the trailer could've been for some Halo Wars sequel or another Destiny-esque game - especially with that name.

ehh that was just them doing a 'hey btw we're doing this but it won't be out for awhile' kind of thing, it'll probably be a big part of next year's e3

kinda like what nintendo did with metroid prime 4 last year but not as half-assed

SUNKOS posted:

Sony will be showing stuff like Call of Duty & Destiny and then all the exclusives will be the same games we've been seeing for years now (Last of Us 2, Days Gone, Spiderman, Death Stranding, Dreams etc.) so I wouldn't expect any surprises or even anything new at Sony's E3 show. I would really like to be wrong but they keep showing the same games each year and they really need to change things up and actually show something new for once rather than games we've already seen at the past 4 or 5 conferences they've done.

Since Shadows Die Twice ended up going multiplat and being at Microsoft's conference I'm hoping that Sony Japan has secretly collaborated with From Software on a new project and we'll get a pleasant surprise.

when you think about it though sony doesn't really need to show off the annual third-party stuff because everyone else already does it for them at other conferences

I wish they'd remove multiplayer gaming from the PS+ paywall as well if all their studios are going to focus on singleplayer games.

i don't see how this follows

sony is still paying to keep servers online whether you're playing one of their games or someone else's

I was not terribly hype about the Cyberpunk game I want actual gameplay already!! Also are we really gonna play as that potato-faced ubisoft shootman and not a cool cyborg chick with a laserbow? No thanks!

sounds like there's character customization and it's not a set character like geralt

so hopefully yes, we'll all get to be the cyborg chicks of our dreams

The DMC fanbase is making GBS threads their pants in hatred over DMC5 and I legit don't know why. It had everything I wanted from a game that erased the reboot from existence.

kind of an ingrained reflex at this point to assume capcom is loving up one of their franchises until proven otherwise

that being said i really liked the vibe of that trailer

for real i think the part that sold me the most on the dmc5 trailer was the cheesy song that had to be made for the game once i heard 'you're my devil trigger'

like, yes. you get why devil may cry is fun, you get why bayonetta is fun

Is Kamiya involved with this one? I'm mostly confused by non-nier platinum games but maybe that's a reason for people to get upset

it's not a platinum game

goddamn I remember this. They really had no clue as to why people actually liked DMC.

for awhile capcom was on this real stupid tear of 'let's just give our stuff to western devs and tell them to make it more like what westerners want and then we'll sell millions!'

and then one of their biggest recent hits ends up being monster hunter world, a franchise that's never not japanese as hell in the best possible way
