Topic: All-Encompassing E3 2018 Thread

@NEStalgia Pssst... I'll let you in on a little secret: there isn't a single modern appliance left in the world that is made to last. There are a lot of factors concerned with most of these devices that drive up both the price and the demand, which has created a reversed effect of companies making these devices only last around 5 years on average, because by now they know that they can easily sell their target audience a new one after that period, and people will accept that as normal.

There's very few people, if any, that still wonder out loud why their TV doesn't last them half a lifetime anymore...

No more of these "I inherited this stove, washing machine and CRT TV from my grandparents, and they STILL work" shenanigans...

Oh, and I actually did get a Bosch this time, so let's see how long it'll last.

Anyway, enough of that. We're derailing the E3 Hype train...

@link3710 Ah, it's already funded. That was some information missing from your previous post. Well, in that case: have at it, then. Personally, I prefer physical. Obviously, I do have a lot of digital titles as well, due to Games with Gold on the Xbox One, but those are free and if I buy my own games, they'll be physical copies nine out of ten times, unless (obviously) a game simply isn't available in physical form.

What about a Mario and Sonic platformer

@NEStalgia...I feel like I need to defend Connor's honor. His father, grandfather and Shay were way flatter caricatures. I would argue Ezio is the worst but he got better in brotherhood and revelations...(still bland as heck though). Connor got the short end of the stick for pacing in his game. Also he was plenty stealthy...the environs didn't always lend to it. But it was pretty easy to do some damage and then run into a house or two to break line of sight and you were good to go. I do miss the less respawny (I know not a word but it is late) aspects of AC1 because it was easier to do clearing kills before you hopped into the public.

I don't remember unity all that well and I never finished syndicate. Origins won't get played till I get access to my PC...which might be a while.

Also smash will make waves simply because it is smash. (I'm not really hyped but that is because I want to play traditional fighters.)

@Orin41 It could be like a puzzle platformer where you may need mario to get to one area in a sonic level and sonic can get in to an area in an mario game but the i thought of like NES remix idea but with mario and sonic levels but they made mario and rabbits work.Also Mega Man X9 would be great to that could have 2D levels and 3D boss fights.

So has anyone mentioned this yet?

This poster on GameFAQs claimed to have a full list of Nintendo's E3 items about a week ago. Fairly extensive list:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/189706-nintendo-switch/7...

Well it just got a lot more likely as they also claimed the Switch online would be revealed on May 7th, which just happened exactly as they said. So that does get them quite a bit of legitimacy. For anyone who can't be bothered to read the whole thing. Basically, they claim Nintendos E3 will have:

-Spyro trilogy
-Yoshi
-Fire Emblem
-New Paper Mario
-Mario Odyssey DLC
-Metroid Prime 4
-Pokemon Switch
-Smash Bros

So that would be a hell of a lot if it's true.

@Dezzy The date was the only thing it got right about the online details though. I'd say we can dismiss this rumor.

All I need is FE. Give me warriors looking models and environs and clasic gameplay and im done for the year. I do hope metroid is the holiday title. Just to see the meltdowns.

@Dezzy Playable Luigi, Wario and Waluigi in Mario Odyssey sounds as fake as it can get.

We already discussed this rumour in another thread when we poked holes in it. All they got right was the date.

They date being right could've been just a guess considering that Golden Week just ended. Literally why I posted about it that day as well.

Square Enix is having their own showcase/video this year, they must have a bunch to show!!

June 11th 10am PT/1pm ET sorry not sure what time that is for you guys across the pond 😉

If they include exclusives, we could be seeing something like:

• KH3
• FFXV DLC
• FFVII Remake
• Octopath Traveler
• TWEWY
• Shadow of the Tomb Raider

And a bunch of surprises.

@redd214 Added to the list. That's means no SE games at Nintendo or Sony this year. Sony has yet to reveal the time and date of its conference too. But going by previous years, it's going to be an all-nighter for us Europeans.

If anyone is interested. Here are the floor plans for this year:

@Octane thanks! I'd guess sony will be in their typical time slot. Tuesday the 11th at 9pm for me so early morning hours for you guys. Just thinking about square they could really have a ton to show. Hopefully we get info on the Avengers game!!

Or Nintendo can do what they did last year, have the third party exclusive at the relevant show, then put it in their own as well because why not.

@redd214 If you're in ET, that's 3am for me, and I have a lecture the following morning... I guess I could skip it and watch it later.

@Dezzy If you browse through that very thread you linked to, then you'll see that the poster of that "rumor" admits to lying/making it all up, so it's save to say that his E3 reveal is completely fake:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/189706-nintendo-switch/7...

I just realised that E3 is the week after my work contract ends. So on the plus side, if I don't have a new job lined up I can follow all of E3 from home should I desire. The downside is that I probably won't be able to afford any of the games...

If Square Enix brings their whole lineup they could possibly have the best presentation this year.

• KH3
• FFVII Remake
• Avengers
• Shadow of the Tomb Raider
• Left Alive
• Life is Strange 2
• DQXI
• DQ Builders 2
• SaGa Scarlet Grace
• Octopath Traveler
• TWEWY Final Remix
• FFXV DLC

Ummm yeah, they win if they show all of that. Don't even need new announcements.
