E3 2014

[Pseudo Enigma]

the hardware for VR is actually coming along pretty nicely. It's not unrealistic to think that we could get a PS4 title running on it any time soon.

VR is just around the corner, which I acknowledged by calling it a wildcard rather than a crazy fantasy.

Mirror's Edge 2 seems like the ultimate way to showcase what VR can do, and that's exactly why I expect a wait. Just having VR isn't the same as making the least trivial possible game to make on VR. Not without sacrificing some of the experience I know people would want from it.

I guess

maybe not so much as underwhelming as my wallet doesn't have enough money to carry all these epic games coming out.

Just looking at all the WiiU titles coming out is making my wallet cry for mercy. Don't even get me started on the non Nintendo stuff. I don't want to look at them ;_;

So basically the exact opposite of underwhelming.

Lots of this stuff does look pretty great. I might even consider a ps4 or xbone.

Did I miss anything important in the last 5 pages
I skimmed it and it looked like a lot of lying from YoshL (big surprise) then a whole bunch of ******ry from other people too, let me know if there were good posts back there

Because that trailer actually got me the most hype of any recent news
Can't believe I missed it

Wolfenstein: The New Order did a decent job so I am cautiously optimistic

[Arntonach]

So far it's been:

Nintendo porting Mario Full Screen for the WiiU, in case you didn't get enough NSMBW
Assassin's Creed now probably including romance options, shuttle launches and nazi zombies
Bioware building up the Dragon Age 3 hype train for disaster (like Dragon Age 2)
Pretty cutscenes advertised as actual game footage
OMG games like Mirror's Egde 2 o:

Duke Nukem Forever was a real letdown. I was cautiously optimistic at the time -- that maybe it wouldn't be an amazing game, but at least it would tap into some of that 90's FPS glory. Nope. They pretty much did away with everything that made DN3D great and made it into the equivalent of a shitty Halo port.

I haven't played the new Wolfenstein yet -- what did you think of it? (I ask as someone who was obsessed with Wolf3D/SoD as a kid and didn't care for the 3D sequels).

Doom... I'm hoping it'll get back to its roots a bit.

[Charu]

Haven't played it myself either, but I've heard the good word for the new Wolfenstein game.

As for Doom, did anyone else like the Playstation port and the N64 rendition of Doom? I want the new one to go about using that as a base.

In fact, I really would like if the new Doom was like Doom 3, but with better shadows and gameplay similar to Doom 64.

my favorite doom is actually doom: the roguelike
(worry)
