E3 2011
 
I thought it'd be best for the E3 game reveals and such to have it's own thread just to avoid spamming the upcoming games -thread.

Anyways, Microsoft conference is starting in about... 30 minutes I think. It's rumored (Actually, confirmed!) that Halo: CE HD remake, Halo 4, Fable 4 and a few others will be announced. Halo 4 would be awesome.

Sony's conference is later today too, not sure about Nintendo. That might be tomorrow.

And then there's EA's and Ubisoft's conferences too if I remember correctly. I'm really looking forward to more news about Rayman: Origins and the new SSX!

Enjoy the E3, everyone.

Edit: From what I know, you can check out live coverage of E3 from GameTrailers, Gamespot and such.

Edit2: Robert Bowling on stage, showing MW3. Meh. MW3 looks really dull.

Havoc 06-06-2011 08:34 AM

Fable 4 is going to be shit by default. Halo 1 remake might be interesting. Halo 4... only if it continues the original story instead of this sideline bullshit they had going with Reach.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 08:43 AM

Tomb Raider's on now.

Crashpunk 06-06-2011 08:45 AM

Its a shame Valve ain't going to be there.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the new Nintendo Console, New 3DS games such as that Mario 3D and other games and Rayman Origins (YES RAYMAN IS BACK!)

MW3 was pradictable and really looks dull. However Halo 4 Intrests me.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 08:48 AM

To be honest, the new Tomb Raider looks really cool.

E: Peter Moore on the stage now, talking about Kinect. 4 new EA sports games for Kinect. Yay.

Edit2: Oh god... Mass Effect... Kinect?! Oh, ME3 will also support Kinect. Pretty neat actually.

MeechMunchie 06-06-2011 08:52 AM

Skyrim's released a couple of screenshots. PC Gamer are at the scene and have a liveblog going if anyone's not picked an outlet yet.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 08:56 AM

*clap clap clap*

ME3 looks really awesome.

E: Ghost Recon Future Soldier is on right now. Kinect support, woo! You can customize your guns extremely well.

E2: Youtube is coming to Xbox! Cool.

E3: New UFC game. Meh.

E4: Gears of War 3. Woo!

e5: A new Kinect title, "Ryse". Also, Halo HD remake!

Edit 6: Forza 4. Meh. They're using the same song that's in the Saints Row: The Third trailer.

Edit 7 (way too many edits!): Fable: The Journey is on stage now. Wonder if it's Kinect compatible? Hurr durr! I guessed it! Hah!

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 09:29 AM

HOLY SHIT, Minecraft Kinect for the 360! (Sorry, doubleposted.)

E: Disneyland adventures!.

Edit 2: Star Wars Kinect is on stage now. (Looks like a failure really.)

E3: Double Fine! A sesame street Kinect game. :D

You bastard, I cam here to post that.

Also: 360 integration with Youtube, Bing and Live TV(?), and also a supposed dashboard redesign to bring the 360's UI in line with Windows 8 and the Windows Phone. Sweet.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 09:50 AM

And now there's just a bunch of Kinect shit. Not that there wasn't already, but now it's just shit. "Yay kinect sports 2.0 fuck yeah"

EDIT: Oh my, that American football game looked so awful. Also those guys were ridiculous.

Manco 06-06-2011 09:53 AM

Well obviously they're going to open with the big guns.

So anyway, I have to admit the thing I'm most excited for is the dashboard redesign. I'm a big fan of Microsoft's new UI designs, so seeing that on my gaming console is gonna be great.

Also, uh, Halo 4 should be cool I guess.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 09:55 AM

Except it isn't even a surprise anymore.

Also, FUCKING DON MATTRICK

E: Omg shit, that was still so epic. Halo 4!

Ridg3 06-06-2011 10:47 AM

Halo 4 would be preferable compared to the amount of kinect shite they were trying to plug.

metroixer 06-06-2011 10:55 AM

The conference was so shitty, and the only worthwhile announcement (halo 4) came up when I had to be interrupted :(

The Halo: CE remake looks cool, although apparently it'll have all the stuff from Reach which I'm not too happy about.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 11:30 AM

I think EA's conference is starting in a minute!

Ed.1: Mass Effect 3 demo! Holy shit that trailer was epic.

Ed.2: Need for Speed: The Run on the stage now. Apparently, it's the first NFS game where you can move on foot too.

Ed.3: The Old Republic!

Ed.4: Motherfucking SSX!

Ed.5: FIFA 12

Ed.6: Sims Social... on Facebook. wat

Ed.7: Some new game called Overstrike 9 or something. Looks cliché.

EDIT 8: BATTLEFIELD 3 ALSO MULTIPLAYAHH

Mr. Bungle 06-06-2011 11:40 AM

Halo 1 remake? Jeez, talk about milking the cash cow for all it's got.

Havoc 06-06-2011 11:56 AM

The EA guy presenting Fifa just now sounds like he's talking to the stockholders instead of gamers. Which isn't surprising for EA.

Live feed for EA presentation. BF3 should be after all the crappy games: http://www.gametrailers.com/netstorage/e3/e3-live.html

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 12:28 PM

They just keep showing some desert mission from BF3. Kinda boring, show something new!

e: October 25th. BF3. I'll buy.

Aaaand the conference is over. To be honest, that was pretty good except for the EA sports titles. (With the exception of SSX, bitches!)

Now just one hour 'till Ubi!

Havoc 06-06-2011 12:38 PM

Gonna stick around for the Assasin's Creed presentation in 2 hours (I think). Should be some interesting stuff there.

Dynamithix 06-06-2011 01:33 PM

Ubisoft's conference should start any minute now.

Edit 1: They're testing out Rayman: Origins right now!

Edit 2: Oh god, this guy is so lame. "Mr. Caffeine"

Edit 3: Driver!

Edit 4: A new game, based on an island... Far Cry 3? It IS Far Cry 3, it has to be! And it looks a bit strange yet interesting.

Edit 5: Yeah, it actually was Far Cry 3.

Edit 6: Brothers in Arms: Furious Four. Looked... strange.

Edit 7: What's this now... a Tin-Tin movie game? What...

Edit 8: More about Ghost Recon Future Soldier.

Daxter King 06-06-2011 02:27 PM

I hope the game isn't actually going to be called Halo 4. The name is such a joke at this point.

Havoc 06-06-2011 02:50 PM

I want Assassin's Creed: Revelations! Game looked awesome as usual. A little bit more of the same, but I feel that AC hasn't reached the point yet where that's a bad thing. And in the trailer it seems we're being taken back to the Assassin's HQ in Asyaf, where it all began. Looks extremely promising. Me want!

Strike Witch 06-06-2011 02:53 PM

Tomb Raider's trailer really rattled me. I guess it was a bit too realistic, ouch.

JennyGenesis 06-06-2011 02:54 PM

I've been totally excited for Driver since E3 2010. I have had the collectors edition on pre order for ages now. I must say that the presenter for Ubisoft was the most anoying prick ever!

To me Furious 4 looked just like a WW2 version of Borderlands. I really enjoyed Borderlands but I doubt Furious 4 will be on my buy list.

Strike Witch 06-06-2011 05:35 PM

Oh, Sly Cooper came back.

Phylum 06-06-2011 08:19 PM

LBP Vita looks cool. I love the look Rayman:Origins demo.

I won't comment on the new Sly game until I see gameplay, but I really hope it's good. I've played the first 3 to the point where they aren't fun anymore.

Daxter King 06-06-2011 10:00 PM

Vita will likely be second to 3DS, just like it was last time.

Nate 06-06-2011 11:11 PM

I dunno. The 3DS isn't really anything new; it's the same console with a new screen, nothing more. Rumour has it that Nintendo have a totally new handheld console in development, so we'll see how that goes.

Also, the backcatalogue of PS2 games that will likely be ported over makes the Vita an attractive option.

Dynamithix 06-07-2011 01:11 AM

Ah fuck, now I missed a lot of shit. Nintendo's conference is in 'bout 7 hours.

Just like how the 3DS has a backcatalogue of DS titles?

Nintendo will win because gameboy, colour, advance, micro and DS show that they always last the distance. People were poo-pooing the DS around this time back when it launched, and look how that turned up.

That, and Sony's PSP was pretty fucking laughable in the games area outside of Japan. They basically gave up on it as a games console more than once.
