The best of EGX 2015

Eurogamer:
It's nearly done. After three days of drinking, chatting and, funnily enough, playing games, EGX 2015 is entering its final stretch, and we're all blearily considering the long trek home from Birmingham NEC. And what a year it's been! We've been graced by legends such as Sony's Shuhei Yoshida, been entertained by the Dragon's Den-esque Pitch Your Game Idea at the Rezzed sessions and discovered some new and exciting games at the various indie sections. What, though, have been the highlights? Here's a little selection of what's made this year's EGX special.

So what exactly was shown off coz the only uploaded vids im seeing is people chatting away, barely any new footage being shown, and whatever is shown is maybe about a minute....worst games expo ever :(

It's used to showcase more electronics than games.

@ ironcrow I thoroughly enjoyed my 4 days there, enjoyed the csgo competition, trying out playstation vr and HTC vice and the few conferences I went to, including shuis 20year playstation q and a

@solidsnake no egx is about games not electronics (obviously there was electronic stuff there before someone nit picks)

Battlefront has been getting some good reviews from folks at EGX.. Can't wait to play it...

Xenoblade X is seems to be impressing a lot people (read impressions on Twitter).

Nintendo's playing it smart with the NX. Developing games that's playable on both their future hardware devices, will increase their software output. Add indies to the mix, and it'll even better. Nintendo's planning for the future, not relying on AAA third party games, though will gladly take them if they come.

It's like a slow moving train wreck..

Rainbow Six is actually a great IP for something like this. I'm assuming it's likely similar to XCOM, and that would be a perfect fit for R6.

S2Killinit16d ago

I’m always excited for a good turn based strategy game.

PapaBop16d ago

Agreed, I'm excited to see how it turns out, hopefully they do Ubi it up.

DodoDojo16d ago

It's my favorite game genre so I'm sold already.

Obnoxious MT shops might not go with a game like this. Are they sure they want to make an actual game?

SpacedDuck16d ago

Another game that will launch, flop and result in people getting fired.

Just shut up and make a new Splinter Cell and stop milking Siege and make a new Rainbow Six 3 style Rainbow Six game.

S2Killinit16d ago

Do you sound this annoying in real life?

Michiel198916d ago

their turn based mario games were pretty good

Inverno16d ago
