E3 is coming up soon. I figured I'd start a thread now in case people have pre-E3 news to share. I watched a demo of Watch Dogs 2 today. It looked pretty impressive... kind of reminds me of GTA. IGN has lots of new video and details on their site. However, I am not feeling too excited about this game. It looks good, just not moving the needle for me personally. Nintendo posted some new artwork to keep us excited for Zelda and I have to say, it's kind of working for me. I think this may be my most anticipated game of E3. Then there are lots of rumors flying around recently such as a remake of Skyrim for next gen consoles. Not sure how I feel on this one. Kind of interested but also not sure I would want to replay that game versus playing other new games I've never touched before. They'd have to really impress me to make me want to replay the game. Although, I do hope it is a good way for them to buy themselves some more income and time so that they can roll VR into the next ES. That's my dream. There is also this schedule of conferences: www.ign.com/wikis/e3/E3_2016_Live_Streams_and_Press_ConferencesI am planning to watch the Bethesda conference Sunday night and MS Monday afternoon during work hours and Sony Monday night fome home. I reserved a conference room for the MS conference and plan to project it on the big screen at work.

Thanks for the schedule, reaper. I have been so busy with work and also trying to get ready to build a house, it has been crazy but I'm looking forward to relaxing a little with E3 just around the corner. Boy, it came up on me really fast.
The art style for the new Zelda looks fantastic. And the huge open worlds, the potential makes it look like a contender for one of the best games made yet. I want to watch some of the gameplay but I don't want it to be spoiled for me. Eh, I will give in and watch some of it. Game looks beautiful, I have some of the artwork as my desktop image lol.
What I'm also excited about is that Final Fantasy XII is getting a remake for PS4. I wish they would treat it like FFX and bring it to Vita as well. I would love being able to play it on the go.

Man if xb1 can get a few more games added to that backwards compatibility list then I'd ditch the 360 and upgrade. I'm intrigued with the slimmer model.

Not much exciting in the Bethesda conference in my mind.
1. If you want to try Doom, you can download the first level for free for this week.
2. Updated version of Skyrim on PS4/XBO supports mods
They also showed a new Quake game, Dishonored 2, etc.
The best part was when they said they were committed to First Person RPGs in VR and said they have a demo of FO4. Again, hoping this is an indicator of what's in store for ES.

MS conf on right now! gaming.youtube.com/e3Announced new slim xbo Announced play anywhere. Buy game once and play on PC or XBO Announced cross play, play xbo vs PC players Showed a demo of Gears. Damn. I need to finish up Halo 5... Gears is back baby! GFX look great. Although I still don't like the characters. They don't seem nearly as gruff and badass as they were when Epic handled the game. I'd buy it though.

Holy crap, they brought a gears character to Killer Instinct. That looked cool!
Then they showed the new Forza Horizon which also looked good with off road racing.
My feed kind of messed up during Re-Core. Anyone see that?

The Division looked good but I think I'll stick with Destiny for now. They showed the same BF1 trailer that we saw at the EA conf last night. Kind of silly, but it is a pretty amazing trailer. Sure, I'll watch it again. Xbox just announced background music, language choice and Cortana support. They also announced clubs where you can create communities. That seems interesting. You can set up a "Looking for Group" option to help find players to do what you are trying to do. They also announced Arena on Xbox Live where you can sign up for gaming tournaments. This is pretty cool if you're into that. I think I am too old! Haha
