    In any event, it certainly looks a lot more promising than Wii U.  What an absolute disaster of a console that was, from design to marketing.  

    The Wii U was a great console... as soon as you bought a Pro controller and used the gamepad as a coaster. What a horrendous launch. It's right up there, and probably above, the initial launches/reveals of PS3 and XBO for awfulness. That said, I had a lot of fun with it, there are some brilliant games on that thing, and it's actually the console that got me back into Nintendo. I'm interested in the Switch for sure, but I'm not going to rush out to get one until there are enough games that warrant it.

  2. I feel exactly as I thought I would, it's fun and visually impressive but I'd never buy it because I know I'll never put the time into it. The nature of the fanboy resentment of any other shooter compared to Battlefield somewhat sours it for me as well.

    that was awesome, why the fuck wasn't this on the actual fucking show. i think miz is one of the most underrated/under used talents in the wwe.

    Because it would've gone through writers and it would've sucked. There's a reason the vast majority of promos from stuff like this and the wwe.com exclusives are considerably better than anything on TV.

    Apparently he is a prodo who chooses to fight for Ireland which is a bit odd!

    Boxing here is governed on an all-island basis, just as golf, cricket, and rugby are. It's not that unusual, you get a lot of sports personalities here who don't want to be defined as one or the other.

    The announcement of Trials Of The Blood Dragon was absolutely not a cringe, neither were the South Park creators. No real surprise that the majority of actual cringes came from EA... and that amazing Minecraft moment, "Let's get out of here." Poor lad looked like he was about to shart himself.

    I can't remember if I have all of the DLC or Legendary. If not, there is 0% chance I would pay $60 for this. Skyrim w/ mods is good enough. I can't imagine this new edition has enough new/updated content to justify buying it.

    If you have it on Windows, you're getting it for free.

    The 27 min one on kotaku's? Yes, I did. I wasn't really paying attention to the dudes talking. The gameplay was what I came for. Could you please point it on the video? I'm just that lazy...

    Funnily enough I don't fancy sifting through all the videos either, there are hours of them. I think there's been some miscommunication down the line, because he explicity says that there are no towns in this demo, not that their are no towns in the game. There's lots of things you can't do in the demo that you'll be able to do in the full game, I don't understand why anyone is having a hard time to believe this. It's genuinely interesting to see how this kind'a shit spreads like wildfire around the backlog of websites though. People are taking that as fact and indicative of the whole game. If I watch the videos again I'll timestamp it for you, I think he's expressing that there are simply no towns in the Plateau area, in which the demo is set, but until then here's a quote from IGN in their interview with Aonuma:

    He also wouldn't talk about towns. "I can't share too much about villages because to tell you how the villages work, they're interconnected to the story and overall world."

    Now, I'd imagine you're probably right in that there aren't necessarily many towns, because I get the impression this is hugely influenced by the original LoZ. As far the no companion, apparently that was left out as well for story purposes, but that is just two sides debating each other. Based on the demo, it seems the female voice, assumed Zelda, is essentially your companion. I don't really care, if there was a companion everyone would complain about how annoying it was.

    There's a rumour going around that Red Dead Redemption 2 was suppose to close Sony's conference but was nixed at the last minute.  Apparently it had a saloon shoot up scene and it was felt it might not gel with the recent tragic shooting in Orlando.  Understandable, but this was the only game I was looking forward to hearing about :(

    That would be a shame if true, the conference was slightly short, but very understandable and the correct decision. Rockstar tend to announce things in their own time and place anyway, so I can't say I was particularly expecting it. We'll see it very soon if true :)

    Hmm... apparently there are no cities in this game, just like Zelda 1.

    It was confirmed there are towns/cities, but they didn't reveal anything due to story.

    If you played on PC, I'm not really sure this is for you. It seems to just be a cash-in on the success of Skyrim, whilst letting people who played it on console five years ago re-experience it with mod-support. I'm certainly interested as someone who played on a small TV five years ago on an Xbox 360, but I'm not paying $60 for it either. People are complaining they didn't do Morrowind or Oblivion, but they would be so much more work than remastering Skyrim, and I'd rather they direct their focus towards VI.

    I heard a rumour that this game won't have French and Russian forces in it. What in the absolute fuck? I mean, I understand some liberties being taken, but come on.

    DICE might not be confident that their audience will know who the French or Russians are.

    I imagine someone seen BOTSJ with it all going over their head and thought, who can we can get to fill a spot that's small and Japaneses?

    I have nothing against Tajiri, but he's synonymous as being a WWE enhancement talent. I know he worked for ECW, but I can't remember the great Tajiri matches from years gone by.

    Well, I'm pretty disappointed.

    You're a mad man if you expected that, I think it'll be another two years before we see anything significant. At best there will be a teaser/announcement trailer next year.

    Ok, I'm a casual gamer these days due to lack of time, what's all this Xbox one s and ps4 k? Is my ps4 going to be as much use as a brick in the near future? 

    Ive tried sitting through vids on ign and asking them on there, but I think they just dismiss me as a girl gamer who doesn't get it, they right :D 

    Was kingdom hearts 3 mentioned at all? I can't sift through all that battlefield/for honour hype on the main sites. 

     

    Kingdom Hearts 3 wasn't mentioned, but it's expected at Playstation Experience later in the year. The Xbox One S is the slimline version of the Xbox One (similar to the Xbox 360 Elite), while Project Scorpio and Project Neo/PS4K was the higher-spec versions of the Xbox One and PS4 that are expected to be released by the end of the next year, that will support 4K Gaming and so on, but won't have exclusive games or anything.
