E3 2013!

So I haven't really kept up with it since it started rather late, I'll try find out the times and stuff for microsuft and nintendos conference. Sony has already been.
Here are the current highlights (I think) of what's been showed:

(Edit: I am working to try and keep this list as up-to-date as I can. Well no. Mainly I'm just showing you guys what I saw and thought was cool. Anyway. I'm trying to update this list as much as possible. If you guys see videos from E3 that you think deserve a mention, Link it and I'll add it to the list.)
 
Sony is definitely winning E3 so far imo. I was an Xbox fan this past generation, but I'm probably hopping back on the Sony bandwagon unless Microsoft seriously turns things around. I think Microsoft has been getting more shit than they deserve over the game service, since Steam is exactly the same but worse, but they definitely do deserve some shit. Needing to get online every 24 hours is ridiculous. Also, it looks like the only big thing the XB1 will have that the PS4 doesn't is Halo, which I'm interested in but not super interested in.

I was pretty impressed by all parties. KH3, Battlefront, and The Division were the highlights of my night.

Sony's fans win in douchebaggery this year.
 
Yeah, I'm actually pretty annoyed by all of the anti-Microsoft circlejerking. I mean yes it was bad, but not as bad as people are making it out to be. The thing I think will really hurt Microsoft is that the XB1 and PS4 are basically the same thing this generation since the hardware is the same and most major games are appearing on both platforms, so I wouldn't be surprised if the decision comes down to DRM for a lot of people. But you know a ton of the complainers are gonna end up with the XB1 anyway. I'm definitely not buying either console anywhere close to launch, so I'm waiting to see how things progress before I make my decision.

I agree that it's been a great E3 all around, much better than usual. I'm glad to see so many new IPs. Also, FF15 looks amazing, and I'm usually lukewarm to the FF games. I was let down by the five seconds EA devoted to DA3, but I'm still really pumped for the game.
 
I heard rumors that Final Fantasy XIII Verses would be changed to XV, weak sauce. That and Kingdom hearts 3 we knew was coming for a long time. Hard to get excited for games you saw coming almost a decade ago.

Yeah this. And the kh3 trailer wasn't really much? Why is everyone skeeting in their pants about this?

All I care about is SUPER SMASH BROS 4.
 
I must admit. The design of the new gen consoles are quite shitty...
The Wii U looks best but the PS4 Preforms better.
I would be happy to skip out on this gen if they didn't announce such good games...
PS4 is my most likely bet.

Awesome Bro

it sucks that you need to have ps+ to play games online eh... but w/e ps+ was a better service the xbox gold.... all those games... so many.

Yeah, needing Plus to play online is a bummer for poor people... oh well, I've had Plus since the day it came out anyway, free gaemz!

I'm definitely sticking with Sony, which was a no brainer for everyone here lol, and my highlights from their conference are probably Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts III and The Division, that looked pretty cool... and watching the gameplay of Destiny... those graphics looked pretty gorgeous, and so did the ones from the new Killzone Shadow Fall trailer/gameplay/thingy, and seeing some new inFamous Second Son footage was nice, that big fire drop from the sky thing looked cool as fuck!

I wish Dead Rising 3 wasn't One exclusive though, and the new Insomniac game looks like it could be interesting too... but I'm gonna' end up with a One eventually so I don't mind, I can play them then.

The PS4 console itself... I'm a little iffy on it, I mean, it looks sort of "futuristic" compared to the One, but sort of awkward at the same time, why is it slanted? I mean sure, slant the front if you like, but the back? Isn't it going to be weird trying to plug cables in? And why did they follow Microsoft with the silly patch of gloss? Meh, it'll grow on me, and if not, I'll learn to like it, since I'm getting one regardless of the look.

Now let's talk about... price. I don't even have to get into it, PS4 wins.

By the way Hiccup, you've put Tales of Xillia as a PS4 game, no it isn't.
 
So the Smash bros videos are now on YT but my brothers laptop is crapping out, so if someone else could upload them I've be very greatful.

Kingdom Hearts has been shit since 2 anyway.

Tetsuya Noumura can't write.

Bro

1)he didn't write for kh2

2)no one plays kh for the plot, it's the action packed gameplay that keeps you in

3) i agree

kh 2 was gay but fun as shit.
