Prepare 4 E3

[Cahaun]

E3 is so close with so much that is going to be revealed! There's going to be so much along with 3 days of live multiplayer for Battlefield 4. Best part will be when DICE reveals the Star Wars game that they are making!
So... what is the part that you are all looking forward to in E3?

Im hoping Microsoft can pull something out of the bag, because up to now the xbox one just looks like a huge flop.

The used game ordeal is really hurting them along with the fact that you have to go online every 24 hours. You can only play off-line for a set time also. Total Biscuit had a video going over some things that Microsoft finally talked about.

What might really hurt them more is that Warframe, Planetside 2, Blacklight, and War Thunder will be on the PS4 as free to plays and are already really fun to play.

All Sony need to say is that the ps4 can play used games and that they wont be using the "always online" feature and theyve already won

Im not sure if it's true or not, but apparently fifa ultimate team will be xbox exclusive. If it is true thats a huge thing for Microsoft

Very true. Console players have always enjoyed being able to pop a disc into the console and play the games they buy, pre-owned or new, without the hastle of hardware requirements. This thing that Microsoft is doing seems more like a huge money grab and an attack to restrict the console players' use with the games they own. If I buy a game, I should be able to do what I want with it.

With this whole concept youre hardly "buying" a game, it just seems like a new way to rent games to me...

Talking about E3, Star Wars Battlefront 3 is going to be the major thing that I'm looking forward to next to Battlefield 4.

I'm not a big fan of Fifa nor do i know how big its community is so I can't really grasp the outcome of it being a Xbox One exclusive.

Yea. We'd be paying money for the game, but we would barely have any control over it or the console that we buy. It's like a puppet with strings. We'd be the puppets while Microsoft tries to play as the puppeteer.

[Matutd]

Since football (or soccer -.-) is the biggest sport in the UK, and possibly even the world, you can imagine that the only 'decent football game' that exists at the moment is going to produce a whole load of sales. And one game mode in fifa is ultimate team which is arguably the best/most played game mode on the game. If they make that xbox exclusive, it's likely it's going to affect console sales too.

Having said that, no matter how many games they make xbox exclusive, if they dont change something about what theyre doing at the moment, it's likely that the ps4 is the downright winner in the 'battle of the consoles'.

Really?

Yup. Planetside 2 itself is something I'd buy a PS4 for.

Halflife 1 & 2 are one of the best games of the century!
(Or at least of the last decade) - beside GTA San Andreas of course.


On topic: I'm so looking for games like GTA V or The Elder Scrolls online.

Me too, I always wanted to play Planetside 2 unfortunately my Mac cannot support the system...:cold:

Another good reason why Planetside 2 will be even more successful when on the PS4. It'll bring in the people who couldn't play it on their computers or are originally Playstation players.

For the people who are still sticking along with this thread and E3, you get a new forum commercial.

And Sony comes out with a perfect dig to the anti-consumer policies of Microsoft!

Edit: Seriously, for anyone still wanting to purchase an Xbox One, please explain, because I see zero appeal at the moment. Was planning on buying both on their respective release days but it looks like the PS4 is going to be the only new console in my house.

Seems Playstation has sealed in their victory

[rapball]

i've always been a xbox person but after the crap microsoft have done to xbox one ... i've been leaning on the ps4 but i'll still check out the xbox but so far the ps4 is the one i might want to buy

Xbox 1 has no hope now. Gamespot released this video at the PS4 reveal where Sony just completely blows Microsoft up by countering everything that is making the Xbox 1 look bad.

There will still be A LOT of uninformed sheeple buying the XBOX One unfortunately. I just have no idea why anyone would compromise their privacy and endorse anti-consumer policies just for a game exclusive.

I'm actually surprised this hasn't received more attention! I came back to visit here to gauge fellow gamer's reactions, but it's like crickets.

And FYI: Best Buy currently is offering a $10 coupon for their PS+ 12mos subscription making it only 39.99 AND they stack! Get it while it's hot, (coupon expires 6/22)I'm picking up 2 today since you get Drive Club PS+ edition at launch!
