#June2013
‘DRAGON AGE: INQUISITION’ coming in 2014. Will probably feature more than one location.
Hopefully the third time is a charm for Dragon Age. Despite liking both the titles, I’ve found each to be oozing imperfection in a different way. The first game? A bit stock in its Universe. The second game? There was like two locations.
‘TITANFALL’ REVEAL TRAILER + GAMEPLAY TRAILER: I Have A Mecherection
Today, it was a pretty blase Microsoft E3 conference. Then Respawn Entertainment showed why they were Infinity Ward, hanging Titanfall on my ass. I am so, so, so in love.
NEW ‘KILLER INSTINCT’ coming to XBOX ONE, IMMA PARTY LIKE ITS 1994.
I want to be jaded about this announcement. Point out that the company that made this game is essentially dead. And then I hear the distinct Killer Instinct announcer’s voice, and my crusty jaded shell is vaporized.
‘METAL GEAR SOLID 5: THE EGREGIOUS SUBTITLE” coming to XBOX ONE.
Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is coming to the Xbone, and it is bringing with it all the eccentric accouterments you expect from a Kojima game.
[E3 2013] – The Unofficial E3 Kickoff features Vita, Kinect and a Nap before MS @12:30pm EST
It’s a confusing fucking start to E3’s flagship channel of coverage, Spike/GTTV.
A Vita world premiere that amounted to an esoteric Japanese handheld bore that looked like a war of icons and numbers?
Rare’s return to the centre stage to show off a new Kinect Sports?
Kill me.
We can all hope this is all just ancillary padding to the main events – the first of which is Microsoft’s XBox Media Briefing at 12:30pm EST – which are primed to be as packed full of goodness as they ever have been.
Today is the day the big hitters – MS, EA, Ubisoft and Sony – speak to the gaming press, the gaming population and the public at large about their plans for entertainment for the next 5-7 years. Make it good kids! The world’s watching.
What are you all excited for this E3?
MOUNTAIN DEW teaming up with Xbox One for “Most Obvious Gaming Promotion In Brand History.”
Mountain Dew is teaming up with Microsoft for a huge push on cheesy products, caffeinated beverages, and the gaming console that is NSA’s data-culling wet dream. It’s a bit of an obvious extension of a collaboration that has been going on for a while now. But this one is going to be HUGE and ENORMOUS and CHEESY.
New ‘AGENTS OF SHIELD’ PROMO FEATURES THINGS.
Hey, it’s a new promo for Agents of SHIELD. It’s really short. Doesn’t feature much. However, it’s pretty neat that this show exists. A couple of days ago I mentioned to my Dad that Coulson lived, and he’d be on the TV show. Goddamn blew his ass out. Couldn’t believe we were getting a TV show from the Avengers movie. It served as a reminder that the entire enterprise is pretty cool.
(THERE WAS) DRINKABLE WATER ON MARS according to Opportunity
Imagine sucking down a cold glass of Martian water? Well, we can do it. What’s needed for this task? Uh, well it’s a bit complicated. A time-travelling spaceship, stocked with a crew and such. Me? I’m just there to drink the water.
‘WATCH DOGS’ E3 TRAILER LEAKS EARLY. The NSA is all like YEAH WE GOT THAT.
Watch Dogs is a pretty interesting game to be dropping at E3. You know, because this week the NSA was caught pants-down. “Ohhh yeah, we have sort of been collating all your data. Nice scat porn, Caff-Pow!” And then we all meekily contemplate how we live our digital lives. Anyways, here is the early trailer for Watch Dogs, a game I’ll be buying. Soon. For PS4.
What do you think of it?
‘THE HOBBIT: DESOLATION OF SUCCINCT PLOT’ GETS FIRST POSTER.
Hey, it’s the poster for the second installment of Peter Jackson’s bloated, self-satisfied interpretation of The Hobbit starring Watson. Yawn. Oh yeah, trailer on Tuesday!
