Interested in Film, Television or Video Game reviews, how about Music, Comics and general opinions on the above? Then you've come to the right place. Enjoy.
So for those who saw the Square Enix coverage on Wednesday, there was a line there that didn't make a lot of sense then. So it turns out my plan may have backfired, and before Pinkie could do any harm, we sedated her to try and get her back to normal. And seeing as we have it out, may as well take a look at something that is sure to make her smile in a way that doesn't put The Joker to shame.
I think its time we go to the "American animation renaissance" of the 90's, where animation once again bloomed, and characters old and new found homes once again. It was a simpler time, where characters only had to be themselves, comical, serious, where all that mattered is the world and their interactions.
So for now, come in, pull up a chair, dance, mingle. Say hi to Christopher Walken, because.
Can't wait to show you more seems to be a trend here
Just Cause 3: I haven't had any interest in Just cause before, and while I may give this one a shot, its not a priority for me. Though the trailer that is basically the presentation is quite boring
Nier: Nothing to say, It looks nice and it has some well known staff working on it
Rise of the Tomb Raider: I've already said what I had to say
Lara Croft Go: would like to see it in action before I form opinions
Heavensward Final Fantasy XIV: Hard to talk about expansions without experience of the games themselves
Life is Strange: Ok?
Dragon Quest Heroes The World Tree's woe and the Blight Below: Dragon Quest IX themed?
Final Fantasy VII remake: Said what I needed to say, though I don't see the logic behind putting the original and the remake on PS4
Kingdom Hearts Unchained: It looks nice for an iOS and Android game
World of Final Fantasy: I'll get to it
Hitman: I've said what I had to say already
Hitman Sniper: ?
Triad Wars: Not meaning for this to be racist, but Japan GTA?
Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness: It looks intresting, though I'm more curious about the series itself
Deus Ex Mankind Divided: Looks interesting, though I get the feeling I should play at least the last game before I play this one
Final Fantasy Portal App:Just a name dump
Project SETSUNA: The concept art looks nice
And with that. I'm done with the press conferences, but I'm not done with E3 yet. I'll be back on Friday for a break from E3 with The Ani... what's that at my door?
I don't care what people say, the muppet intro is hilarious
Starfox Zero: It looks like a lot of fun, with the transforming vehicles
Skylanders Superchargers: It's skylanders, but amiibo fans have two more to get
Fire Emblem Fates: It's IF
Shin Megami Tensai X Fire Emblem: Still looks great
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Something that I'm becoming more and more interested in everytime I see it in action, it looks really good
Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer: It looks charming, but nothing else aside from that
Animal Crossing amiibo Festival: Animal Crossing Mario Party?
Yoshi's Woolly World: It's so adorable
Yo-Kai Watch: Nothing has caught my attention with it yet
Mario and Luigi Paper Jam: Its a mash up of the two Mario RPG formulas that has a giant Mario Tank made of paper fighting giant paper Goomba tanks. Enough said
Mario Tennis Ultra Smash: Its Mario Tennis
Super Mario Maker amiibo support: Because why not have wii fit trainer go through Mario levels?
Quick note, who was in charge of the vision mixer, when there's something on the screen, PEOPLE WATCHING THE STREAMS WANT TO FOCUS ON THE SCREEN, NOT EVERYTHING ELSE
The Last Guardian: Looks ok, not a fan of how the feathers on the "griffon" are being rendered, but apart from that, it looks good
Horizon Zero Dawn: It looks really fun to play and the world just looks gorgeous
Hitman: Not much to say as it was a CGI trailer
Street Fighter 5: It looks nice, but its still just another street fighter
No Man's Sky: Pretty much what I said last year. I am considering picking it up though when I get a PS4
Dreams: It looks nice, but its something that I can't really describe. I'm probably not going to pick it up because I'm not that kind of artist though. I could see people using it to make movies though for YouTube.
Firewatch: I've got nothing
Destiny The Taken King: It's a little hard to talk about an expansion to a game I've never played
South Park The Fractured But Whole: First, are you honestly surprised at the name? Second. May give this a look, but then again, there was enough in Stick of Truth that turned me off, looks like a fun RPG, but... lets just say I agree with the censorship board on that one
Good to see them acknowledging the fact that last year was a wake up call in terms of what you actually need to do for a game's launch. Like finishing the game
For Honor: Looks decent, but I don't get why you're calling it a new genre
The Crew Wild Run: Looks to be adding in more events and vehicles
Trials Fusion Awesome Level Max: She was right, the only thing I have to describe it: WHAT THE F$&@ IS THAT?
Tom Clancy The Division: Don't care
Just Dance 2016: It's Just dance
Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Siege: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Assassins Creed Syndicate: Finish the game this time before releasing it. This means bug testing and face rendering
Tom Clancy Ghost Recon Wildlands: How many Tom Clancy games do you need in one year?
Mass Effect Andromeda: Not much to say, but I do want to start playing the series
Star Wars The Old Republic expansion: It looks like an interesting expansion, may give The Old republic a look
Unravel: It looks charming in a Little Big Planet/ Chibi Robo kind of way. I'd need to see more gameplay before making a decision to play it, but you could tell the presenter was very nervous there
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2: I find it interesting that you can now play as the Zombies, nice change of pace. And the inclusion of Singleplayer is great to hear. Execution though is going to be another story
Minions Paradise: Charming little mobile game
Mirror's Edge Catalyst: It looks interesting to play. The only Mirror's Edge experience I've had is with the Occulus Rift so I've got nothing really to talk about here.
So what did Microsoft bring to the table for its confrence? Well, I'm going to need to look into their other shows during the course of E3, but here's most of the stuff from their show. Which was a lot better then last years, one tech issue aside.
Recore: It looks intresting
X-box one backward comparability: ABOUT TIME!!!
X-Box Elite controller: It's a customizable XB1 controler
Fallout 4: Same as Bethesda, I'll get to it later
Mods on X-box 1: Interesting
Titanfall and Dragon Age Inquisition on EA Access: Eh
Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2: Highway to the Dangerzone, comical
Forza 6: I don't care about car porn
Dark Souls 3: Nice CGI trailer...
Tom Clancy's The Division: Fairly certain I saw this last year, even if it was just teased, so this isn't a world premiere. Meh otherwise as its just a CG trailer for a shooter
Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Siege: Nothing new to talk about here in comparison to last year, from a person who has never played a Tom Clancy game's perspective
Gigantic: Um?
ID@XBox games montage: Looked like something that would be good to see, if the video feed was there. Audio was though.
Tacoma: Space station Gone Home?
Ashen: Not sure what to say as its just a gameplay less trailer. I do have one thing though: "I AM LIZARD GROOT!!!". I just woke up at time of writing, ok?
Beyond Eyes: Maybe not something I'll pick up as its not the kind of game I enjoy. But I can't deny that the game looks beautiful
Cuphead: It looks adorable. If I do get an x-box one, I'd pick it up. That and its final line "Coming 1936 (plus 80 years)" To those who don't like math, 2016
Game Preview: aka Xbox's Steam greenlight esque system
Ion: Something I may keep my eye on, interesting concept, but it hasn't sold me yet
Rise of the Tomb Raider:It looks like a lot of fun, however I'm probably going to wait to see if its a timed exclusive or not
Rare Replay: Its a collection of past games, not much more to say
Sea of Thieves: Looks interesting
Fable Legends: Already covered last year
Gears of War Ultimate Edition: Its a remaster
X-box and Valve VR/ Occulus: Not much to say really, Occulus Rift is being bundled with an XBox 1 controller
Gears of War 4: Meh, don't care about the Gears of Wars games
Considering what's coming up, there isn't going to be a lot here, just some brief notes. There wasn't much in terms of staging, but so much to talk about later this week. So what am I going to talk about now?
Studio montage: Something I wish I could talk about now, but POLARIS WOULDN'T STOP TALKING LONG ENOUGH TO LET ME HEAR IT (Thank you Bethesda for also streaming it on your own Youtube account)
Bethesda.net: We want steam's pie is what I got out of it, what I'm curious about is if its exclusive or can steam tap into it for some of its games, like one I'll talk about later)
Battleblade: Not TF2 is what I got out of that, basically a melee oriented TF2 from what was shown
ESO: Meh, looks nice. I'm not playing Elder Scrolls online, so I don't care
ES Legends: Nice trailer :/ not much to say other then that
Exactly what it sounds like. Once again, thank you to Marissa for joining me on this one, and up next starts the coverage of E3.
To those who watch it on Youtube, you'll notice that the video's been live for roughly 24 hours. Subscribers will be the first to know of new videos that go live, with posts on the other accounts following later. Just an incentive to subscribe. Let me know what you all want to see covered in the post E3 video.
It's been a while since I've done a anime hasn't it? Digimon Marathon aside, the only other animes I've done here are The Unicron Trilogy during the Transformers Marathon (Armada, Energon and Cybertron) and K-On... which I will get back to... should get back to... maybe....hopefully... So, Magical Girls. It's pretty much self explanatory, girls, normally teenagers, are given magical powers to stop some sort of force of evil. Think of Sailor Moon as an example. That's pretty much all the explanation that needs to be said, now to look at the series that turns it into something dark and depressing: Puella Magi Madoka Magica, commonly referred to as just Madoka Magica.
