[ALL] E3 2013 General Discussion

[killgod]

Mobile game? Gonna go ahead and not give a fuck.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

I don't want Battlefront 3. I want KOTOR 3. Bioware devs for EA, its all making sense now.

KOTOR 3 is SWTOR. You aren't getting another KOTOR game I would bet, or at the very least not for a while.

As for Battlefront 3, if DICE is doing it........:fap:

Deus Ex: The Fall is a Mobile Game

 

[ThomasTomasz]

Mobile games have a good shot to be the future, and I think a big company like EA is banking on it. They are going to push a whole lot of mobile games hoping the new consoles are too expensive, and folks will buy the mobile games for their tablets (which they already have) instead of purchasing a new console.

Mobile games are already here and every game company should look to enter that market ASAP if they are not in it already. So many people have smart phones and tablets even the poor "woe is me" carries around an iPhone.

Consoles are a shrinking market IMO but still relevant for at least another decade.

 

[SethMode]

My issue with mobile games is two fold: 1) I don't want to move the fucking thing constantly to play the game; and 2) any game with on screen "joysticks" or "buttons" fucking BLOWS.

A dual joystick (!!!) shooter on a touchscreen sounds like one of the worst ideas ever as a touch device exclusive.

Mobile games have a place for me, and I recognize how popular they are, but if it gets big to the point where proper controller games aren't being made? Well, I guess I'll get a lot more reading done then.

 

[Swarley]

No thanks.

I can barely tolerate mobile games, even when I'm at the airport or on a flight and I'm bored. The day consoles become irrelevant is the day I stop gaming.

Holy. Shit. The return of Brnt. Whatever you can get your hands on is good for me (although I don't really care about the sports titles). If you can get your hands on the controllers, I'd love to hear what you think about how they feel. We need to get you back on a podcast at some point.

Capcom Teases ‘Big Surprise’ at E3
What will it be?

Capcom is teasing a surprise at E3 next week. In a post announcing its E3 lineup, Capcom said it has “a big surprise to share with you” and recommends that attendees visit the Capcom booth on the show floor.

Capcom’s other E3 games include DuckTales: Remastered, Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara, Lost Planet 3 and Pheonix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies.

No hints about the surprise were provided, but it’s worth noting that a resume outed Dead Rising 3 earlier this year, and the title also appeared on a recent purported leak of Microsoft’s E3 games. Capcom also teased the possibility of a new Mega Man game in March.

Whatever Capcom’s surprise is, you can expect to hear about it at one of the major E3 2013 press conferences, which include Microsoft at 9:30 a.m. Pacific on June 10th, Sony at 6:00 p.m. Pacific on June 10th and a Nintendo Direct on Tuesday, June 11th at 7:00 a.m. Pacific.

Super Ghouls N Ghosts?

Bring back Power Stone!

KINGDOM HEARTS :fap2:

 

[KNUBB]

Since we are all so fond of NeoGAF rumors I would like to share one. Apparently M$(Used because it fits the context of this rumor) is tossing money bags to publishers to not show next gen multiplatform games at E3 on the PS4.

Will they then claim these games are exclusive?

I'd say this is interesting, but I don't like NeoGAF all that much and 90% of their posted rumors are as accurate as Mike Pachter predictions.
