Skewed and Reviewed have posted an opinion piece that asks if it is already make or break time for the Xbox One. They cite the pending E3 conference as a key time for Microsoft to undo some of the negative trending of the system and build some momentum.
Set to bring action adventuring to PC and console, Mark of the Deep is a narrative rich game which mixes in some decent ideas
Confused about all the different shot types? Well, here is a quick and easy guide for each shot in TopSpin 2K25.
Speaking with Game Rant, Ark director Jeremy Stieglitz outlines the approaches taken to adapting the game's plot for the animated series.
Unless E3 un-announces everything that was shown, no, the damage is already done.
I know people are saying "wait for E3" but the context for videogames has already been defined, and it is not what I want. They could announce a new Mass Effect, but guess what? It will be online-required, no-used-game Mass Effect. They could announce Halo 5, but guess what? It will be online-required, no-used-game Halo.
The games don't matter at this point. Microsoft has declared loud and clear: "games are on the backburner".
Thank you. I have debated this one quiet a bit the last few days. Like many I was not thrilled with what I saw at the reveal and while PC and PS 3 are the platforms we use the most often, my wife and I love the Dance Central series and I like playing Halo and Gears with my Nephews online. That being said for me, COD was the most interesting part of the reveal and I can play that on other platforms. They announced the June 10th meetings weeks ago and we will be there to cover it, but I kept asking myself, what can they do to turn things around. The main thing I kept coming back to was full disclosure, solid exclusives and actual gameplay footage from the system that blows people away.
Sony is offering hands on time with many PS 4 games at the show as I have had not only them but third part developers offer to show off their pending games and if what we hear is true Sony may have the edge in system power, abilities and titles at launch.
All these Xbox supporters keep saying wait for E3 that is when the good stuff happens. Do you know what? Sony has an E3 showing as well if people have forgotten & they have the last word since their presentation is the final one.
Microsoft has a lot to prove at E3 & yes their show will have a HUGE impact on the minds of the ones that really support a system & that is the gamer. After the debacle of their reveal if Microsoft doesn't come out guns blazing & wow the people with those promised 15 titles the backlash will be even bigger than what it is now.
Microsoft keeps saying they are gonna own the living room. Guess what without the gamer/people there is no living room. Sony made it clear in their reveal that the gamer/people is what makes the living room not the other way around.
Also since Microsoft already showed the box the anticipation on what it looks like is mute. For Sony they haven't shown the box yet which gives people the anticipation on what it will be like. The surprise factor is still in Sony's court cause of that.
While there is still time to schedule meetings I find it interesting how this is working. Normally Microsoft and Sony have their events on Monday before E3 opens. Nintendo normally does the Nokia Theater Tuesday morning which allows the media time to get things online and ready as you have to chill until E3 opens at Noon for the first day.
Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft all have very big booths and generally do drop ins and select interviews and meetings.
As of now, Microsoft is just doing the event on the 10th, but Sony has had their Online PC division who handle Planetside 2, DC Online, etc offer meetings that include the PS 4 as well as other developers who have said we will show you our pending PS 4 titles. I have not had one developer say we will show you our new Xbox One games. Yes, I know things like COD, Destiny, etc will be Xbox one games, but you get where I am going. Nobody as of yet has announced seeing their Xbox One games.
If the used game issue with the new Xbox is true I won't be buying one full stop. It could have the best exclusives ever revealed at E3 but I wont be supporting a console that does that.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Sony don't do it.
