E3 general

microsoft's conference was alright but holy fuck their almost their entire lineup is reboots and gritty sequels

1hr and 45min until EA's conference

can't wait to see how absolutely the same their lineup is

8ch /v/ gave microsoft's conference an average of a 3.95

Missed the last half of microsoft's conference, but I'm back for the EA one. Dear God please let Battlefront and Mirror's Edge gameplay be good.

ONE MINUTE
PREPARE YOUR DOBBERS

oh it's just the pre show. blargh

le what are you talking about EA's conference doesn't start for another 25 minutes

Kojima is doing some next level confusion here. This makes my theories about the game feel more validated, but good lord if this isn't the most insane shit.


Also Geoff Keighley all but confirmed Kojima is leaving Konami before presenting this.

is it just the E3 way to play shitty music right before you start your conference?

here we gooooo

MASS EFFECT: OREGON TRAIL

for fucks sakes EA needs to reboot need for speed most wanter

2:02 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: ick
2:02 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I still need to play the other MEs
2:03 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I'm kinda behind on the stream
2:03 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: jesus fuck this dude has an obnoxious accent
2:03 PM - Litagano Motscoud: don't spoil too much :P
2:03 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: yeah i'm using infinity.moe
2:03 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: which uses twitch
2:03 PM - Litagano Motscoud: This guy's accent isn't that bad
2:03 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: "300 high school students" wow who cares
2:04 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: EA's passion to play is what inspires them to get up in the morning
2:04 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i always thought it was money, but whatevs
2:04 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: "a dozen new experiences"
2:04 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: oh fuck
2:04 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Well, EA as a company is different from EA as developers
2:05 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: EA barely develops anything
2:05 PM - Litagano Motscoud: oh
2:05 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Well, I dunno
2:05 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: most of their good franchises are bought
2:05 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I'm just gonna watch and see what they do
2:05 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i really hope they dont fuck up battlefront
2:05 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i reaaaaaaaally hope they dont
2:05 PM - Litagano Motscoud: we'll see
2:05 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: alright we're through the speech finally
2:06 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: welp
2:06 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: they're kicking off with a new need for speed
2:06 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: that's not a great sign already
2:07 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: they need to make a new need for speed most wanted
2:07 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: that would be very nice
2:07 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: wait, that's it?
2:07 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: please tell me that's not all we're going to see out of this
2:08 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: ehhhhhhh im already not liking this description
2:09 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: fuck twitch is being dumb
2:09 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: which is exactly why nobody uses this shit
2:09 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: glorious twitch lagging like shit
2:10 PM - Litagano Motscoud: too many dongers ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ
2:10 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: oh god fucking live action
2:10 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: is that live action?
2:10 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i thought they stopped doing shit like this in 93
2:10 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i can't even tell
2:10 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Interesting choice :v
2:10 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Well
2:11 PM - Litagano Motscoud: As games become more graphically intense
2:11 PM - Litagano Motscoud: The transition between live action and game world will be much less jarring
2:11 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: it's still jarring because no amount of graphics can make something look truly real
2:12 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: computer graphics will always have a more plastic look to them
2:12 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: like what you see with the cars in NFS
2:11 PM - Litagano Motscoud: It wasn't that jarring IMO
2:12 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I mean
2:12 PM - Litagano Motscoud: You could see it probably, sure
2:12 PM - Litagano Motscoud: But it didn't look that bad
2:12 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: holy shit twitch is so bad
2:12 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i really wish hitbox would just take off already because twitch is physically incapable of handling E3

2:14 PM - Litagano Motscoud is now Online.
2:14 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: what the fuck is this?
2:15 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: knights of the fallen empire free for all subscribers lol what
2:15 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Star Wars The Old Republic
2:15 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: thats incredible and TWITCH is still shit
2:16 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: how do you fuck up E3 coverage this badly mon dieu
2:16 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i mean all you have to do is host the stream for companies
2:16 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: o well
2:16 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: this glorious CGI
2:16 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Yeah, it looks great
2:17 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: it's just too bad you know the actual game isn't going to look anything even remotely like this
2:17 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Most cinematic trailers don't
2:17 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Anybody who thinks so is fooling themselves
2:18 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: this is why i prefer trailers with actual gameplay lol
2:18 PM - Litagano Motscoud: It's supposed to be something to get hyped over
2:18 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Not a showing of the actual game
2:18 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Yeah, I agree
2:18 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I can appreciate CGI trailers, though
2:19 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: if you're gonna make me either pay $70 on release or wait a year and a half until a reasonable deal comes along i would greatly prefer to know what the fuck i'm actually spending my money on
2:19 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: not that i have any money anyways cuz i dont
2:19 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Nobody's making you pay though
2:19 PM - Litagano Motscoud: You're perfectly free to wait until the game comes out and reviews come in
2:20 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: most gaymen sites are paid to give good reviews so thats usually not an accurate gauge of anything'
2:20 PM - Litagano Motscoud: Is there any actual proof of this
2:20 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: yeah
2:20 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: that's literally how gaming journalism works
2:20 PM - Litagano Motscoud: ...sources?
2:21 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: i dont have any on me right now but if you haven't noticed pretty much every major game ever gets no lower than a 7 or a 7.5
2:21 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: regardless of how genuinely good or bad it is
2:22 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: wow this is awkward shit right here
2:22 PM - Litagano Motscoud: That's all the proof people have? I mean, there are other reasons why that could happen
2:22 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: no there's way more than that
2:23 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: really all you have to do to prove that gaming journalism is by and large fraudulent is think about this
2:23 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: if a video game site gives a major company's game a bad review, what do you think the company is going to do to that gaming site
2:24 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: do you really think they're going to give them future games to review?
2:24 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: because the answer is pretty universally no
2:24 PM - Litagano Motscoud: RAVE PARTY
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: if IGN were to give one of EA's games a scather of a review, there's pretty much no chance that EA would give them another game
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: which would absolutely fuck IGN over
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: because IGN relies upon the money it gets from reviewing those games and the money companies pay it to review tiehr games
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: oh what the fuck is this
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: holy shit
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: no
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: nop
2:25 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: nop
2:25 PM - Litagano Motscoud: you gotta go
2:26 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: that was so fucking awkward holy shit
2:26 PM - Litagano Motscoud: It was amusing
2:26 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: ighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
2:26 PM - Litagano Motscoud: I gotta go
2:26 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: GW2
2:26 PM - applejack drinking appaloosa: bye
2:26 PM - Litagano Motscoud: See ya
