| I'm going to be my super loveable grouchish self and say I'm still not sold on E3. Woopee, Pokemon, even as a big time fan of the franchise that's not exactly going to salvage E3 for Nintendo. I mean even I'm not such a fanboy I'm going to deny the fact it's basically the seventh rendition of the same game |

| I should be able to catch everything I care about; I'll miss EA, but I'm only really fussed about Mass Effect and Titanfall, which I can catch up on. I'll have to schedule my lunch break to watch Xbox in the canteen, but that's doable. |

| I'm starting to get pretty excited (although that's also for the time off). Bring it one! |

Just as long as you're on board for next year, which will be my first E3 in charge. I'm very excited at the thought of revealing FIFA 2018: Basically The Last One But With Finishers. |

Right, that's not what you said in the thread, and that sounds amazing. |

Is the one I'm most intrigued about as last year they had a good showing and I went and got a Xbox One again because how good it was but it's likely forgotten due to Sony's best E3 ever. Microsoft though is what I'm now calling it seeing everything is on Xbox and PC and I wouldn't be surprised they show the PC version or do something like Bob is playing Gears 4 on Xbox One and Bill here is playing it on PC & together. As last year they showed which interested me: We had Halo 5, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Gears of War Ultimate, Recore, RARE Replay, Sea of Thieves, Gears 4 and that lot made me want a Xbox One again also knowing Quantum Break & Scalebound were coming. Since then though I played Halo 5 which is one of the worst Halo's, RotTR was in my Top 5 of 2015, Gears of Ultimate I didn't bother with, Recore is listed as just 2016 I reckon it will be shown but delayed till 2017, RARE Replay was fun to go back to but I never felt like I'm going to spend 10hrs playing Kameo, Sea of Thieves is meant to be 2016 still but reckon will be delayed to 2017, Gears 4 I'm very excited about, Quantum Break is something I would have bought if I had a XBONE but not something that would make me buy a XBONE also after RotTR this would have been the first game I would had bought on XBONE that's a 5 month cap, Scalebound has been delayed to 2017. I reckon there will be some good stuff but most part from Gears 4, Forza whatever it this year, Crackdown is the 2016 exclusive line up and only one of those I would buy, but what they show for 2017 will be interesting to me more especially seeing they may show 2 console's and VR all in the conference. That if they show Scorpio and it's 2017 and the lot of the games I want our coming in 2017, that's when I may jump back in but Xbox like Nintendo I would only for the exclusive but Xbox has lost what makes it special with everything now on PC as well and depending on price of Scoprio, it might just be better to get a PC or due to how little I would get on a Xbox One a cheap 1st generation system and make do with 720p 30fps Scalebound. |

| Double Post,
Square will be having a E3 Active Time Report for Final Fantasy XV basically after Bethesda's Press Conference at 4am in the UK.

In so far as we do make any changes to them, expect them to be more arcade-y. Fast-paced, power-ups, special moves and stuff. It's not far off! |

I got the FFXV ATR wrong it's actually after Bethesda not Sony, I found this out as NLife and there counter parts but they only have the stuff related to there formats, has a near complete E3 schedule up the main page. There is likely to be something missed like a Ubisoft twitch stream otherwise it's rather robust. |

| Notwithstanding everything Drunka and Jas have said, I'm still really sad that, this close to E3, I have no feeling of hype at all. Getting excited for this time of year was one of my great pleasures, and now it's gone. The NX Direct just won't feel the same. |

| My heart feels the same, Balla. Even as a multiplatform guy, the Xbox conference won't be as special.
My head still thinks Ninty made the correct shout. |

| Well if multiplat gentlemen like yourself and Jas (elsewhere) aren't hyped for things full stop, maybe it is EA. Maybe Nintendo doing anything wouldn't have awakened the same primal feelings as e.g. last year.
Listening to IGN's lead-up-to-E3 podcast also made me think that, among the announced stuff, there's not a heck of a lot of absolute stunners this year. The Big 3 seem all to be pumping their efforts into their new (or "new") hardware: XBox 1+, PS Neo and their VR thing, and the NX. Leaving the games shelves just a bit empty, apart from half a dozen multiplats. There should be surprises of course, although with "leak culture" being a thing now I'm not sure how significant that will be.
Who knows. Sad either way. |

| Sony's could be interesting with Neo being shown at E3, meaning they have to have something to show to cover what is about 90 minutes.
I'm still hyped as I have a holiday and will talk about games with you guys etc. |

| What a horrible start! The most exciting part of it was the FIFA 17 campaign thing (which I am actually interested in). What a waste! |

| Yeah, EA's was a waste of an hour for me - I was there solely for Mass Effect, and got very little Mass Effect for my time. |

I was laughing so hard at that bit as the acting from that chap was god damn hammy. |

| EA set the bar very low, yes there was good stuff but it to long for so little and some of it I#d had already seen due to EA leaking the rehearsals. Then Bethesda like last year had a great showing and this year had stuff I actually really cared about. - LEAKS:
Seems all the rumors about new Xbox One consoles are real with the Slim known as Xbox One S being 100% same as the rumor which was going around. It looks nice but if I jump back in, it be either a cheap used Phat Xbox One or wait for the Scorpio.
The former might be more likely as Recore seems to be coming this September which I'm rather shocked about then a month later will be Gears 4.
Seems Zelda will have Link & Linkle as Nintendo press stuff has been going around and it has a Male & Female character on it and both look like there based on Link.

| That moment you wake up after a 14 hour sleep (a fate that awaits anyone who takes a metric s*** ton of sleep inducing pain meds for a migraine after only sleeping -6 hours a day for a week on brand new comfy sheets) and realise E3 started and you thought it was a month away with how big its been. |

| Between Quake and Battlefront I think I just saw the single most tryhard lameo trailers of all time. Overproduced wannabe epic nonsense I've seen in the longest time.
Best bit is they showed both like new shooters are even relevant now that Overwatch is out. |
