Yeah I don't understand how they're so eager to milk Skyrim but not release a sequel or a New Vegas style spinoff.

Ugh why 3DS though? Just let it die, Nintendo.

That is the most insane thing I've ever read.

Prime 4 isn't exciting news?

I will now rank the press conferences: 1) Nintendo 2) Sony 3) Ubisoft 4) Microsoft A large gap 5) Bethesda Another large gap 6) EA An extremely large gap 7) Devolver Digital

If only the lazy fucking developers would type their 0s and 1s a little faster and games could get completed in 18 months - 2 years like films.

Damned if they do, damned if they don't. The past few weeks the narrative was that the games Sony shows at E3 are years out. So this year they reeled it back and focused on games coming out, for the most part, in the next 12 months. And now everyone's annoyed they didn't announce a bunch of games.

The PC gaming show had the best announcer, I'll give them that much.

I thought it was trash. You know, I kind of like the idea of Bethesda's more than mods but not quiet DLC. Keep my games expanding forever in meaningful ways, I'm in. It'd be nice if this stuff had trophies/achievements too.

I thought RE7 was supposed to be a return to form (albeit in the first person). Oh well, these games are all too spooky for me to play. Hopefully Evil Within 2 has a mode where it's less scary.

My understanding was it was the poor man's Resident Evil but I don't know what the point of it is now that RE is back with 7.

Someone just got fired!

TCP's E3 Predictions (Well More Like Hopes and Dreams): -Switch Virtual Console is announced, debuts with most (or all?) of the Wii U VC. I don't have to pay for my VC games again or if I do it's a small upgrade fee and they come with filter options. -2D (or 2.5D) downloadable Metroid game is announced AND a 3D retail Metroid game is announced, like when Fusion and Prime came out simultaneously. -New DLC for Mario Kart 8. I played all these tracks to death on the Wii U, wouldn't it be cool if Mario Kart was just this ever growing platform? -Super Smash Bros Wii U/3DS port on the Switch, with the stages from each games... AND the Ice Climbers. And BotW Link. -Spider-Man PS4 is a fall 2017 game. -Bethesda announces Starfield, has no microtransactions, looks dope as hell. -PS4 Pro price drop -Ocarina of Time / Majora's Mask 3D ports on Switch. Have you seen the videos of how great those games look in 4K? -VITA 2 IS ANNOUNCED, IS INCREDIBLE!

Then my fucks are at zero.

FLD is just bitter that the Bioware that lives near him is the crappy Bioware and the Bioware that lives near me are a bunch of ballers.

Say what you want about Bioware, they've never tried to give us a protagonist that looks like this: I mean he literally has glowing headphones. Bioware Edmonton meanwhile is the developer that tries to develop games that are the Bob Dylan of video games. NOBEL PRIZE, FLD. Sorry, I don't mean to pick a fight with you, I just really hate Platinum, and object strongly to them being ranked among the best developers. I'm happy you like their games though!

Ok fair enough about DA2, but DAI was fairly universally well received, at least a lot better than the games I mentioned. ME3 was a great game with a questionable ending.

I'd still take Bioware over Platinum. Bioware has one questionable game, ME:A. But Platinum has TMNT, Star Fox Zero, Transformers Devastation, Wonderful 101, Scalebound, and of course, Legend of Korra (for which I will never forgive them). Just because they happen to release a Bayonetta or Nier:A every few years doesn't excuse their BS. #sorrynotsorry

Better not be an Xbox exclusive.

Is this what "Project Dylan" is? "The Bob Dylan of video games"? Do they know who Bob Dylan is?

Best Buy has it exclusively in Canada. They tweeted they'd go live at noon on Friday. Of course at noon on Friday I was busy and didn't think of it till 2:30 but it was still available to pre-order. It's gone now though. I missed out on the Amazon exclusive Skyward Sword Link which I'm bummed about. I really just want those sweet BotW outfits.

SHUT UP, I HAVE NO SHAME!!!

I'll definitely be playing lots of 1st party Nintendo games on my switch but unlike previous Nintendo consoles, it's also going to be a great home for indie games, I reckon.
