E3 2013

[Fortet]

This about sums up Day One

What are your thoughts?

[Archem]

Sony certainly won. It's like they saw Xbox getting all excited to shoot itself in the foot, so they provided the gun.

Really though, Microsoft ruined everything well before E3 even started. The PS4 being a whole $100 cheaper only put the nails in the coffin.

[Fortet]

Very true.
I think the problem here is that Microsoft started thinking more and more about the general consumer and publishers/developers than a VIDEO GAME console's target audience: GAMERS. If they want to break into the home entertainment business, then by all means, please do! Just leave my gaming machines out of it!

I haven't really cared for consoles in a while, but this is a pretty spectacular flub by microsoft.

[Dr. Ace]

While Microsoft had a few exclusives I am interested in they aren't enough to justify buying THAT hardware. Sony didn't show many exclusives and I don't think they'll be leading in them for a while, but Sony offers indie gaming and a wide stock of third party games. Microsoft C- and Sony B+.

Awesome, new super smash, both for WiiU and 3DS. New characters Villager (animal crossing?) and Megaman. Looks classicly great.

Also, Monoliths new game, not much new on it but it's all good.

New Donkey kong with coop, viking penguins and walruses.

Also Bayonetta 2.


And apparently FF 13 VS is not FFXV

Link looks like a badass in those cg scenes

And apparently FF 13 VS is not FFXV

But it is, they even showed it in the trailer. The XIII Versus logo changed into XV.

Skip to 3:38, apparantly short time links don't work here.

Misstyped Not instead of "now"

[DragonBlaze]

I had hopes that microsoft would attempt to redeem themselves at E3, but that didn't happen. If Sony took up Halo.

Forgot to mention that Smash bros will have different looks on the 3ds and wiiu, the 3ds looked kinda cellshaded while the wiiu one went with High def.

Also, they are now having Kingdom hearts 3 in development for PS4, Amazing that an entire generation of consoles passed before it came out. KH2 was for the PS2 after all.

New mario kart looked good, but no new zelda was kinda disappointing.

[oooog]

Kingdom Hearts 3 - PS4 Sometime
Final Fantasy Versus XIII XV - PS4 Sometime
Super Smash Bros. - Wii U and 3DS 2014
Super Mario 3D World - Wii U Sometime
Handful of other games for Wii U and 3DS I already knew about

In other words, I will inevitably get a PS4 when there's something worthwhile, but as it stands I can stand to play Watch Dogs on PC.

Project Spark actually looks pretty interesting. Kinda like rpg maker on steroids.

[oooog]

I concur, Spark did look quite intriguing.  I have high hopes it will be released for Windows 8 which they sort of eluded to if I recall.

Below was the most interesting game showed. To bad it's exclusive to one.
