[ALL] E3 2013 General Discussion

In my opinion, I don't think it was ever a question. That PS3 launch price was a complete joke and I don't think (maybe I give too much credit) that they'd be dumb enough to do that again. $449 is my guess.

I am thinking they both are going to be $499

2 scenarios (am I crazy)

xbox $199 with 2 year contract of $15/month - total $560 - must register console online with M$ and bill through them. Console will need to be online and if you do not pay, the console will lose connection and hence seize to work.

Scenario 2 Console $499 - 2 years of live - $120 - total $620 console is basically unlocked and doesn't need to be online.

which do you chose...and what is wrong with my methodology. Gotta run...

I know Pachter is throwing around $350 and $400 for PS4 and Xbox One respectively, but that sounds like a total pipe dream.

I did not see that one coming. Actually a pretty cool idea.

Would help to add iOS and Android.


Or add XBLA later this year.


Windows devices only? Meh.

Why not. Spartan Assault was indeed in that image

apparently that was trademarked a long time ago by MS. No TM symbol on that screen. Neogaf ripped it to shreds. Thats what I am basing it on....yep Gaffers.

The image was released after the announcements (and subsequent title art) for Quantum Break and Forza 5, so I don't think those really count. It'd be easy as pie to shop those to a pic like that. So at 1 for 1, I'd say we're still dealing with small sample sizes.

So we're sticking to lucky guess for now :thumbsup:

Sure, I guess. I mean, if it's true the title was already trademarked, I'd say it's just more "dude with too much time on his hands" more likely than not.

Or, these are all true. Personally, I'd be surprised if it was because basically everything coming out right now is just total BS on the MS side (or total confusion). Although I would love a new Banjo game.

New Banjo game would make me rethink when I get the system(I was thinking somewhere about 3 years after launch)
