E3 2018 General Discussion

Thought EA was pretty rubbish tbh, it was all filler no killer. Even anthem looked average which is what I was looking forward to the most. Gives Ubi a nice window to try and knock it out the park with Division 2 though before Feb.

Anthem just looked like a weird mix of Destiny classes and Warframe suits. Very unoriginal. Maybe it has a better showing on the floor as 'influencers' do their thing (much like BFV).

Microsoft tonight premiering 15 new games. Doesn't say if 1st or 3rd party though. AAA or Indie.

[Brad]

Gears, Halo and 13 surprises. Could be interesting.

[Digfox]

Forza Horizon 4 as well, surely.

[teddymeow]

Fable 4, Gears strategy game.

[Neon Ignition]

You know most of those premiers will be indie titles or timed exclusive third party games we already have an idea about. MS has ridden that way all generation. There's no way they improved their pipeline years back to deliver now, they'd be lucky to have things in place for Xbox 4's launch.

[Digfox]

Yep, although even if they can get 2 brand new, exclusive games shown they are doing better that last year.

Somewhere else it was suggested EA Access Premium might be annouced for Xbox. Not sure if that is a good guess.

[teddymeow]

Just read a rumour that The Last of Us Part 2 will launch this year.

That would be immense if true!!

[MartyG]

To add to the front page list.

PC Gaming Show - Monday, June 11th at 11 PM - never the most enthralling show, but they're trying.

So what are MS gonna have as a surprise? VR for the Xbox family? Hardware price cuts maybe?

There's been images of press ads for the One X down to $349 during E3 week. Some are taking that to mean a permanent drop to £399 afterwards.

I think they need to do better than that.
On a side note how many times will there be a dramatic “WORLD PREMIERE” or “EXCLUSIVE” voice over?

"Premiere" or "Pree-meer" as it seems to be pronounced?

[Digfox]

Twitch official stream is garbage for me on PC/Samsung Smart TV App. Youtube seems much better.
