Spidey!

Don't care for the white spider on the red and blue suit...

Spiderman: Arkham Edition

That's it?
Never expected the only game I would care about would be a remake of a PS2 game....
And nothing about Last of Us 2? Guess it is still years away.

Is that it? If so, quite a bit underwhelming.

Yup. That was it.

I thought it was odd that there was no mention of Gran Turismo. Isn't that still this year?

Sony would have to really fuck up in order to not blow them out of the water.

Care to revisit this? :lol:

No Bloodborne 2 :(

Re: E3 2017
 
There was nothing there that was a true surprise. Uncharted, GOW and Spider-Man look cool. Days Gone looks good but not my game. Detroit is very interesting. How about a surprise or two? Damn!

Just straight trailers? Weird

And no surprises...dumb

Can't wait to see 80% of these games again at E3: 2018

I guess both companies are playing safe with the game announcements.

For me, BG&E was a PG game... one I could play with my kids and after watching the trailer for BG&E2... wow, I was cringing at every curse word. Does UbiSoft think that since the audince is older (since they took so long to make the sequel) they've got to pull stuff like this just to get folks to buy it? Darn shame.

Flame away. ;)

mattysemo247 06-12-17 09:33 PM

So no huge surprises from either company this year. I guess they are on cruise control heading into year 5 in current gen.

Where was the Playstation Ultra Pro?

fumanstan 06-12-17 09:47 PM

Re: E3 2017
 
Yeah, Sony's stuff looked good but mostly nothing we didn't already know about. And I joked about it earlier, but I'm weary of so many 3rd person action titles on Playstation with what looks to me like very similar gameplay.

That said, Spider-man is probably the game i'm most excited about between both companies.

It's time to move on from the following tropes:

1) Zombies
2) Unrealistic stealth and/or brain-dead, deaf, peripheral-unaware AI
3) VR
4) Melancholy cover versions of 80s pop songs to set the mood
5) Quicktime events
6) Lists

The original game was rated "T" so I don't see it being that big of a jump to the new one having curse words. If you've been playing games with your kids since the original BG&E I'm going to assume they played games with violence/killing in them so I don't see what they big deal is about cursing in them.

Re: E3 2017
 
In film, PG-13 gets you one f-bomb. T should be pretty similar. I'm with Goldberg, the constant use of "fuck" was the first thing that stood out to me. The first game was a wholesome game with a great female protagonist. All the f-bombs on this were unnecessary.

Then again maybe that's Ancel getting some agression out on a 14 year development hell game.

1. meh. Skip 'em then. Days Gone looks pretty cool to me.
2. I hate stealth so I, for one, am more than open to dumb AI in stealth sections in games that don't need or shouldn't have stealth to begin with.

3-5) :up:

Re: E3 2017
 
So uh, Crackdown 3 huh. Fool me once... once the trailer gets past that god awful Terry Crewes nonsense, it starts looking decent... but I bought and played Crackdown 2, which was a steaming pile of cow manure. I want this to be good, but I can't see myself buying it on day one. They're going to need a bunch of glowing reviews to get me to even buy it on the cheap.

The Questyen 06-13-17 12:33 AM

Re: E3 2017
 
It's not your creation. Who are you to say they're unnecessary?

Michael Corvin 06-13-17 12:37 AM

Re: E3 2017
 
If you can lift them from the script and still accomplish the same tone then they are unnecessary. There is nothing in that trailer that suggests that any of them are needed.

Someone should ask Ancel about it because it is a curious design choice.

After 10 years in development, anything is welcome.

No reason. I was just on a roll of hating on things.

All these games are looking exactly the same and I blame, in general, the dumb AI which is offset by hordes of "straight at ya" bad guys. Zombies are just the default version of this. It's so boring and uninspired. It would be different if the humans were more aware when you tripped their perimeter alarm system or could see beyond 3 yards around them.
