E3 2013 Thread

Post by dsheinem »

It's that time of year once again for corporate hyperbole, massive dissapointment, and press conference memes. What do you expect to happen next week? Any predictions?

I'll get us started with a few:
-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.
-Square will discuss an FF7 HD remake

I hope he enjoys himself. Even with press credentials, I found E3 to be one of the least fun conventions I've attended and generally was eager to get out of there at the end of every day.

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:

Bioshock: Infinite: Origins
Injustice: Gods Among Us: Revelations
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance: Shadows
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Mirror of Fate: The Beginning

I will also be disappointed if at least one major release from a Japanese dveloper does not feature a nonsense word.

I have two friends who have gone the last two years because of the convention they run and they think it is a blast. All of my friends in the industry though feel the same way you do DSH. After they are promoting, they are done and want to go home.

In a perfect world, Nintendo will preview a new Metroid and Wars game.

Then I can die in peace...

But they'll probably focus on ports of games on the Wii U and disappointing their fans.

Very little to nothing.
