Who's clamoring for more Halo? Not only that, but who's knocking Nintendo? I'm not gonna sit here and drool over games that aren't coming out until next year. That doesn't mean they don't look good but what did we see today besides Mega Man that we didn't already know about?

I'll always be one of Nintendo's biggest supporters but they've just taken a lot of missteps with this console. They'll get my money eventually, too. Just not until they give most people a reason to want the system.

Most, if not all, of the people in the Wind Waker discussion are big fans of first-party Nintendo games. Most Nintendo fans think they've bungled things up horribly. Baseless attacking of posters accomplishes nothing.

My love for Nintendo knows no bounds. If I had to list a top ten games of all time, they'd probably account for six to eight. They also made, as stated above, my favorite two games of the current generation (Galaxy 1&2).

That said, they are not infallible, and they've completely lost me with their current hardware...both the WiiU and the 3DS, as they have doubled down on gimmicky.

Microsoft has by far gotten the worst of this E3...maybe the worst I've ever seen at any E3.

I liked the Halo universe. Unfortunately, too much of the focus was on multiplayer. And I hate multiplayer.

I didn't buy Halo 4 until recently. I bought it used. To stiff Microsoft.

This 1000x. I never even finished Twilight Princess because of the controls and I barely wanted to finish Skyward Sword because of them.

Well, not to change the subject too far away from how MS shit the bed as of late, but is anyone else looking forward to the releases from Ubisoft? Watch Dogs and the Division look amazing.

I'm looking forward to the customary Ubisoft pricedrop within a month of launch...

The font and color of the X look straight from Xenogears. Is this a sequel?

Looks like it follows along the lines of Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii. I LOVED that game!! The mix of organic and mechanical worlds/creatures. This is part of the reason I have a WiiU.

Spent the day at E3... i'm mostly over these things, so I just like to walk around and glance at stuff. Dead Rising 3's display was cool, they had a cage with people pretending to be zombies shuffling around and rattling the cage at the people walking by. Waited in line for a demo of Bungie's Destiny, which looked pretty darn cool. And i'm not a Halo fan at all. I mentioned in the PS4 thread, but I got to hold the controller for a bit. Very nice, fans of the 360 controller should be happy with the changes. Didn't get to hold the One controller though, too many people in the crowd when I was in the area. Consoles were out behind glass for both the One and PS4 though.

The lobby of the convention had a huge mech from Titanfall towering over everyone. Really fucking cool. I'll post a couple bad pictures later.

Cool that you went. Be sure to post your impressions of Sonic: Lost World in the Sonic thread. That looked to be one of the best games there.

GF and I are going tomorrow. Should be fun, it's her first time checking it out. I really don't care what we see, I'll probably just follow her around all day

I didn't bother waiting in line to play anything, and Sonic isn't my cup of tea. Really just enjoyed walking around looking at the trailers playing. Titanfall and Destiny are most intriguing to me, outside of seeing Microsoft and Sony's consoles.

Here's the giant Mech from Titanfall... hope it shows up correctly linked from Facebook.

I've liked what I've seen on Watch Dogs. Though I've heard rumors that you play the first half of the game as his father Snoop. And the last half of the game in a lawsuit in a Canadian court.

Haven't seen Division. I've always preferred Multiplication, but I'll give it a look.

I wonder if it's a long game. I hope not because I've always hated Long Division.

Maybe I'll just wait for the sequel, Remainder.
