The E3 2013 Thread

[mrz84]

Its going to be made as either a single thread or several smaller threads so here it is. Discuss this year's E3 and its going ons.

I've only until an hour ago, engrossed in my copy of Animal Crossing New Leaf so I'm just now hearing about what's happened so far.

Concerning X1, nothing I cared about since I didn't plan on getting the system. Killer Instinct returning was predictable with the recent rumors (or at least to me) and surprise, a new Halo. The only true surprise for me was Dead Rising 3. Not worth a system for just it though and it will most likely not stay exclusive for very long, if at all.

Sony.......Kingdom Hearts 3 and FF 15 (maybe? I'm hearing that SE is testing people's reactions to the trailer, which I liked btw, to see if they want that as 15, or versus13 as the next FF game) are both surprises to me as I wasn't expecting them.

Ps4 will support used games and no online check (both nice to know), will cost $399, Elder Scrolls Online, and a mashup video of everything else sony's bringing: http://www.gamespot.com/e3/ea-e3-con...sh-up-6409675/ (you can probably look it up on youtube as well, but its late and work tomorrow so meh)

As for Nintendo's Direct for tomorrow, here: http://www.inquisitr.com/690152/supe...irst-coverage/

New Smash Bros coverage will be in it. [edit: Mega Man is confrimed]

Discuss.

My only comment for now... Mega Man! Finally!

This reminds me Sony made an how to share you games on PS4 video which is the best thing in the world.

[edit]: somebody had the video removed so here's a longer, full video with Sakurai narrating.

Well guys, I stayed out of the current console generation, but I think I'm going to go ahead and sign up for my PS4.

As for the Wii U stuff, meh. Nintendo's just gotten too casual/kiddie/party for my tastes.
Is it just me, or does this new Smash Bros. actually look worse than Brawl? It certainly looks less realistic and more cartoony at the very least.
That and it doesn't play Blu-ray. I'll get just about as much use out of PS4 as a media center as I will playing games.

The only footage I saw that made me think it was too cartoony was for the 3DS version. I thought what they showed for the Wii U version was looking pretty good. I am sure I will at least invest into the Wii U version at some point.

Ya, somebody in the vid I posted directed me to that. On one hand, I think its an interesting choice for a character, but on the other I feel somebody else could have had that spot. But the entire roster hasn't been revealed yet, so who knows who else will get in?

And judging from the Mega Man footage, my prediction for his moves list:

Final Smash: Super Armor (MM6/7) This is the only one I'm leaving on this list, as an edit of a previous post has gameplay of his moves being shown and talked about. Except for his Final Smash.

I don't buy new consoles so it will be a while before I pick up a Wii U. I never got a PS3 but considering I will never get a Xbox One I may grab a PS4 someday. The 3DS however is quite tempting especially with ALTTP2 and SSB. I don't see myself getting one soon but certainly before a nextgen home console.

Megaman. Finally.

Mario 3D world, amazing.

Mario Kart, strong innovation, looks like a blast.

Donkey Kong, another stellar title I'm sure.

Etc.

If I ever start gaming again, I might get a PS4. Xbone is garbage.
