E3 2013 Thread

Maybe they will announce that Sony will now only allow turn based RPGs on their console and all FPS games are banned until the next Fallout or Elder Scrolls game comes out LOL.

Seriously, they need to stop trying to innovate and just come out with games that have good/intelligent stories that captivate and motivate you to play. Too much to ask?

[Ack]

Wait, so instead of guns and realism, they're giving us zippers and angst?

I will be quite disappointed if at least one major releases does not feature two or more colons in its title. I am anxiously awaiting

Batman: Arkham Origins: Blackgate ?

Last year's presentations were all pretty brutal and depressing to watch. Aside from maybe Ubisoft demoing Watch Dogs and Rayman Legends.

So, assuming it's better than last year I won't be disappointed. Can't say I really care what Microsoft wants to sell me though.

I imagine Nintendo will have a lot of games.

I hope Sony will have some good Vita stuff.

I couldn't care less about what Microsoft has to offer.

And as usual, PC games wont really have that much of a presence, and considering I'm primarily a PC gamer, that's a big reason E3 just doesn't sing to me that much.

So basically, keeping an eye on the interesting Nintendo and Vita stuff. Don't really care about much else.

Well to be fair, Guns make up 90% of Xbox games, not to mention a good chunck of PC gaming. Giving us a ton of Japanese rpgs on the Playstation balances things out. Microsoft has their particular target demo (The Call of Duty, Gears of War, Halo crowd) fully accounted for. Sony might as well go for everyone else.

I actually talked to a girl gamer the other day who has an Xbox. I asked what she plays and she said, "I kick butt on Call of Duty!" I just smiled at her while my mind went, "typical"

I'm right there with you. I've very interested in the Vita and 3DS offerings. As for the PC side of things, I find most of the PC games that interest me the most are indie titles, and they of course aren't going to be shown at an E3

-the majority of the "exclusive" XboxONE games focused on by Microsoft will be Kinect based, console exclusives, or timed excluisves
-no third party will spend much time, if any, discussing a Wii U game
-Sony will show nothing about The Last Guardian unless it is coming to PS4. Also, they will spend minimal time making new game announcements for Vita.

I can mostly agree with those, although I reckon both Sega and Ubisoft will have something to show for Wii U, if less than the other two consoles.

Honestly, now that first footage of Smash Bros 4 has been confirmed for Nintendo Direct on Tuesday, E3 could be nothing but a minute long trailer for that game and I'd be crazy hyped.

[Opa Opa]

What I'd like to see:

Xbox: Nothing. I wasn't going to buy the new one (or should I say "One") anyway. Even before all the negative news popped up I had no interest in MS's latest console. The Xbox line of systems just isn't my thing.

Sony:
-PS4 game trailers.
-The system price at (or under) a $450 price point.
-More info on Killzone Vita; along with other Vita game announcements.
-I also want to see more on the Vita-PS4 inter-connectivity.

Nintendo (via Nintendo direct; they're not making a big e3 conference):
-Wii U price drop. $250 would be nice. Nintendo, go ahead and add at least 200 gb of storage while you're at it.
-Some exclusive games worth picking up the console for.
-More info on ALttP 2.
