Microsoft E3 2012 Discussion Thread (Press - 6/4)

[Swarley]

That was shitty. No doubt. But....

Tomb Raider looked tits.
Gears is always tits.
Halo is Halo.
RE will be meh.
And CoD fucking sucks.

R6 will be the best game next year and it wasnt even featured here. Maybe later.

Don't forget that Forza also looks tits, and that Fable looks like garbage.

Southpark? Interested?

Missed it.... is it on XBL yet ?

Southpark? Interested?

I love South Park so I'm definitely interested...if the gameplay is decent. Few TV/movie games deliver in that area.

Think its highlights

I can't be the only person here that thinks Molyneux is the most overrated designer in the history of gaming?

I know he created Populous and Theme Park and those games were supposedly super innovative on the PC in their day. But the last 15 years? I know Fable 1 didn't live up anywhere near to his loft promises. Fable 2 was fun but nothing major. Fable 3 was a gigantic disappointment filed with bugs.

So why is this guy so revered in the industry?

Here's a list of all the videos they showed.

Does anyone know why they always show TR at the MS conference? It's not exclusive, right? I'll probably get it on Xbox anyway but I'm curious. If MS did secure it as an exclusive that would be a smart move. Add that third party series to Splinter Cell. Their exclusives have been dwindling down to scraps over the past few years it seems.

Left some things out but I got the jist of the conference.

Shit was wack all around.

[Twigg4075]

Never mind. I see that MS signed a timed DLC deal with them. Which, by the way, I hate when developers already have DLC mapped out for a game that isn't even out for months. Ugh.

The video they showed make the game look like it's all about major and minor set pieces. Shoot the lamp there, burn a few bad buys, shoot the barrels here, watch them roll down a hill and kill another bad buy. It looked great though.

Black & White was a pretty big deal too.
