Thought we should start up a thread solely for E3 as the news develops so everyone can share their thoughts.

Following are the (AU) scheduled conference times to get underway.
I'll be trying my hardest to watch the Sony one live as it's not at a ridiculous hour - here's hoping I'm not too busy. Nothing beats watching live as the surprises unfold.

• Microsoft Tuesday, June 11th @ 2:30AM
  
• EA Tuesday, June 11th @ 6AM
  
• Ubisoft Tuesday, June 11th @ 8AM
  
• Sony Tuesday, June 11th @ 11AM

I dont care about MS but curious to what they'll bring after all the disappointments the past few weeks. And well only reason why I'd wanna watch EA would be Battlefield 4!!

I've gotta get up at 4am tomorrow morning to watch the F1 - bloody Canada and its time zone. But Formula One comes before Xbox One for early morning rises - so I'll be passing on the latter. Am actually excited about this E3. I hope Sony brings it and steamrolls MS into oblivion. haha.

I'm thinking whether I should skip class for EA/Battlefield, their conference starts when my class starts Damn it.

Oh and how many times will good game crash and go offline because of all the e3 news lol

[Saintsy]

It'll be on youtube none the less so no reason to skip class? Silly outlaw lol

M$ will spend half their time talking about tv and kinect, the other half about 3rd party games with maybe 10mins of their own exclusives. Sony would have to do/announce something extremely idiotic to lose it's current crown (Marketing aside).

Though M$ will earn extra points if they announce more of the old school games (Killer instinct, Banjo), granted they aren't remaking it into what passes as "Acceptable" by todays standards.

Nice one Clowny .  Hyped as well, although got work and docs appts all through this week, so will be a bit behind the times when it comes to the news - lots of catching up in the evenings methinks.  Reckon this will be the best E3 in a long, long time, but that there'll be some quality controversy in there as well .

Call of Duty: Ghosts - Dog Mission - No Man's Land



Call of Duty: Ghosts - Underwater Mission - Into the Deep

That dog cam is fu*king hilarious

[Aromaci]

^ The dog was cool but everything else was COD 101.

[Axe99]

Looks pretty slick, although CoD continues moving away from its roots - the performance of what looks to be a fairly standard assault rifle underwater is, as far as I'm aware (which isn't much, granted), very optimistic!  Thanks for the vids Clowny .

[Saintsy]

The biggest surprise COD could give me is if they DON'T kill the dog off haha

Moving away from their roots? They're more or less using the same engine, with more modification (from what I've heard)
The new CoD game looks like more of the same, they've just got a new turd polish formula.

Apparently Respawn are working on a mech game called Titanfall (I expect saintsy will have a little orgasm about that). There might be something at E3 about that, as some of the details were leaked when Game Informer magazine release went a little early from Google play.

Check out the vids section for the Cod Reveal, which is the 2 vids that clowny posted (which he should have added to the vids section) plus some people spouting bollocks like they know what they're talking about.
The chick is hot, but everything they say sounds scripted. I suspect CoD is starting to see a decline in players/interest, hence what I can only call "excessive marketing"

Xbone and PC, nothing to be excited about

[Outlaw]

Just a had quick recap of the MS presser, much better than the Xbox reveal, plenty of games shown - lots of great games although they were multiplatform. The exclusives didn't really grab my interest, but titan fall, the new insomniac game and Rhys looked pretty good.

$499 USD released in November. About $749 NZD.

So far the Xbox one is a skip for me but MS did well in avoiding  talking about TV TV TV.
