Ubisoft: the only thing that has more holes than an actual leaky pipe. :^]

Metroid, Xenoblade, EarthBound shill

They have thousands of people around the world work on each game, it's not exactly surprising. More out of the ordinary is that the insular Nintendo seems to have cracked like an egg this year.

Oh, and I guess it's weird that Assassin's Creed chose the same title as Mario so close to its release.

Don't hate me because I'm bnahabulous.

Am I wrong in feeling that things are more leaky nowadays regarding companies? It seems pretty frequent that announcement and such get leaked before their expected time. If so, I’d imagine it likely due to the development of the times.

I feel like the leaks have always been around, but now that many have been confirmed by certain sites and people, I think everyone pays much more attention when stuff is "leaked".

@-Green- I think it's a lot of things. The immediacy of the internet, I for spreads much quicker than it used to. The amount of people working on a game from developers to marketing people to finance/accounting has gone up too. Add more people to the mix and its just statistically more likely something will leak. Also many people can't keep a secret for 3 or 4 hours much less 3 or 4 years, bound to happen lol

@redd214 You definitely have a point. So much for NDA's, then...

These leaks make E3 feel diminished. Like each company should do Directs instead and E3 replaced by a PAX type event.

@ThanosReXXX haha yeah exactly. Another point I just thought about all these people looking for instant Twitter fame as a "trusted leaker" or "industry insider" doesn't help keeping things under wraps either. I do think it takes away some of the magic of E3 the event itself, but one positive is instead of getting a mammoth amount of info in a week its now spread over a month and have more time to pick and choose what to pay attention to when actual show starts.

@redd214 Yeah, I guess it has become something of a sport, almost. From their point of view I kinda understand, as in that we would also be on a natural high if we would find out some big secret, or at least thought we did, but what I really can't understand is that these leakers don't seem to get that they're actually only a bunch of buzz killers, because the actual leaks destroy any and all surprises for the actual target audience.

Much like that partial page leak for the Switch. It is already all but confirmed by several media that it's actually real, so that part has already gone to the sharks, where any possible surprises were concerned...

A brief Aces trailer.
We see Fortnite officially announced, possibly releases after the Direct.
We get news on Odyssey DLC.
A Metroid Prime 4 teaser
Pokémon Let’s Go trailer, with a few story details.
We get a big blowout of Smash news, with at least 3 newcomers announced.
Bayonetta 3 trailer
Fire Emblem teaser
Undertale release date.
Yoshi gameplay trailer.

Just a geek that likes video games, and spends to much time playing Smash Bros. and Fortnite.

Really excited that we'll probably get more Xenoblade 2 details in less than 8 days. I'm ready for Bringer of Chaos, Challenge mode, extra story content and whatever other extras there are for the rest of the year.

I expect my top 3 most played Switch games by the end of the year will be Xenoblade 2, Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition and Splatoon 2.

One more thing, and this is more of a hope than anything. Please let there be a new Arkham game. Those are some of my favorite games, and would be amazing on Switch. I know Arkham Knight was the finale, but I don’t see a reason they wouldn’t throw in another prequel. Arkham Knight left a bit to be desired, so this is one of my major hopes. Although if the rumors are to be believed, we should be getting a Superman game from Rocksteady, so that’s something.
