E3 preview and good video games

[THEWULFMAN]

I thought it so odd when I found out they were airing it at 10:00 PM Pacific Standard Time, which pushes it to 1:00 AM Eastern Standard Time. Lucky for me I'm always up that late anyway, but most interested parties probably wouldn't be. They should have done it 8:00 PM PST and 11:00 PM EST in my opinion. It's almost like they don't want people watching it.

This year I'll probably just pick up Borderlands 2 as it looks to be a vast improvement upon the first. Halo 4 is a maybe if I hear it was pulled off well from friends. Too addicted to SMNC at the moment for anything else.

Agreed. What makes this more sad is the fact that E3 will be on weekdays. (So I really won't be able to catch it late..)

[Teancum]

It's scheduled on my DVR. I'm sure I'll be up in the middle of the night (our son is only 2 mo old), so I'll be taking a peek then.

LEGO: LOTR, Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2, Star Wars 1313 announced... Can't wait the E3, and gameplay and trailers.

Lego %$# = Meh
Most Wanted 2?!? I loved MW. Hopefully NFS can bring something new into their games - they're starting to get repetitive and old, although I must admit, I've never played The Run.

[THEWULFMAN]

I'm really excited for Lego: LOTR. And as for NFS, don't get your hopes up too much. It's probably going to be the same old same old, since it will probably still sell. The last game I really enjoyed was NFS: Carbon, but meh.

More PRE E3 stuff. Nintendo is streaming at 6pm EST/ 3pm PST tomorrow a Nintendo Direct video about the Wii U.

[Labj]

Im also getting ready for Gears of War: Judgement.

[THEWULFMAN]

Besides the awesome Halo 4, Microsoft didn't have a lot to show for their 360 today. Given it was the crown jewel, but it seemed to stand alone. Especially when one considers that COD: BO2 was the second most interesting game they had to show. No new hardware to show, and only a few good games.

SmartGlass looks pretty cool though.

[Labj]

Halo 4 rocks. The new enemy seems interesting, and the voice at the end, i guess it is the Didact... Again.

[Fluffy_the_ic]

Kinectrosoft and DLC Arts both had pretty dumb ones. Crysis 3 and Halo 4 were the most impressive I'd seen, and then I saw AC3 and Watch_Dogs and now my mind is blown. Both made my jaw drop, and the former had me commenting like "Aw snap!" while the latter gave me goosebumps.

[Grev]

Watch_Dogs looks fantastic. I love it. Star Wars 1313.... I'm... not sure.

[Teancum]

I'll be picking up Star Wars 1313, the new Need for Speed, and Assassin's Creed III.

[Cerfon Rournes]

Watch_Dogs looks fantastic. I love it. Star Wars 1313.... I'm... not sure.

This.
Watch_Dogs and Assassin's Creed 3 both looked amazing; 1313 sightly disappointed me.

[The Nasal Abyss]

How could 1313 disappointed you? The visuals were absolutely stunning. Looked like Uncharted meets Star Wars! What's not to like!?

Also, Halo 4 looked incredible. Hardcore Halo fan here, and I'm totally happy. Can't wait to see how they handle Cortana's rampancy and the waking of the Didact. And yes, the orange ball we saw momentarily was a Cryptum, Halo fans

Hidden/Spoiler:

For non-Halo fans, a Cryptum is a Forerunner tomb that basically suspends and keeps the inhabitant alive for upwards ten thousands of years. That's why the main forerunner is coming back, and he isn't too happy with what the humans did to his Halo installations! (He also hated humans back when the forerunners ruled, too. So it's double hatred for Master Chief and crew!

ugh, I just rhymed. Oh well.

[THEWULFMAN]

So I finally got around to watching the demo for Watch Dogs.

Hey, HEY, Ubisoft. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.


It's about time we saw something that wasn't a sequel, or a reboot, or a spinoff. But a brand new game, with hopefully promising results and then sequels for it.
