ZombiU was pretty much the only decent thing in the Nintendo Conference line-up, IMO. Was so looking forward to hear anything about StarFox, F-Zero, or Metroid. But no, instead...3 friggin Mario games -_-

the thing is, nintendo had a couple other gems that would have been more interesting to show like p100 or the wario title.

their conference was a total flop.

The only problem I'm having with 'the last of us' is that it's so incredibly linear.
which is why ZombiU was higher on the list, finally a zombie apocalypse game that has the apocalypse part.
and of course I'm eager to get to play around in AC3

i have no problem with the linearity. I'm personally sick of all the open world gameplay that everyone demands out of every game. Linearity exists to tell a story and naughty dog is obviously a group that accells at telling stories, so linearity is an acceptable way to build their game imo

it still looks like a good game, just saying why it isn't higher on my list.
and honestly, I'm not just up for open world just for the hell of it
it's just that we've never had an actual open dystopian world.

I'd love to see an open world zombie (as tired as zombies are, they still need to be done right) game
you actually run around, explore, gather what little items you can get, build up a little defensable location yourself.
and zombiu seems to me like the closest we're getting to that currently.

yah, zombiu looks super killer, the definite ap to have on the WiiU, but that's just what's holding it back for me. I really am impressed, it made it on my top 5 and I agree with everything you said, but I just don't see myself getting a WiiU at launch or in the launch window (at this time).

It's actually not as linear as it seems. The vast majority of actions in the demo that people are pointing out as scripted were actually pure ai reactions. The marauder coming after you when he realizes your gun is empty, Ellie(?) jumping on the one guy's back with a knife, even the encounter itself; all of that is the game responding to your decisions and actions. It'd be number one on my list if I weren't sick of dystopian zombielands.

I actually meant open as in explorable, you're not shoehorned into going into a specific building.
also, in this interview
http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e.....last-of/731335
they sorta admit it half is half isn't in that you're not doing throwing each one of those punches
you press the attack button then the game decides which animation series it wants to go through.

BUT Watch Dogs got my attention. I'm not even into these kind of games but it seems like a blast to play.

Watch Dogs is one of the most incredible things I've seen done in a while. There's so much detail in everything. Beyond looks great too, as well as Last of Us.

Why is everyone saying Watch Dogs is #1 when in truth after you peel back layers its just another GTA game.

AC3, HALO 4 and Black Ops 2 are just some of the games I'll be getting but has anyone seen Transformers Fall of Cybertron at E3 no and you want to know why Because the idiots at E3 thought it doesn't need to be shown.

Look for the Trailer to Transformers Fall of cybertron and you'll see the epicness of the Dinobots in action

I agree with the watch dogs thing, it is GTA with a different weapon set but it is a new IP with what seems like a unique base idea for the games story (for a AAA game anyway)
as for the transformers, watch gameplay footage, it's the exact same as the transformers game from a couple of years ago.
the trailers are beautiful

the Epicness of Grimlock is not to be missed out on in Transformers Fall of Cybertron cause the tail is a DRILL to use

I was waiting and waiting for someone to say this...a game that depicts the Transformers as they should be depicted

And lets not forget that in September we also are getting Borderlands 2

that is true but i'm surprised there is no more trailers for Borderlands 2

it's those complex layers on top of a good idea that make a good game nowadays though. You can't have original ideas anymore, it's all been done, and what hasn't been done is nye too complicated to make a decent game.

Halo 4 is just another shooter, Black ops 2 is just another shooter, but it's the unique elements about those games that makes you love them.

and yes, I have actually looked at fall of cybertron. aesthetically it looks good from that highly CGI cutscene, but it will play just like the transformers games that were lackluster and unimpressive of yesteryear.

ahhh you didn't hear Grimlock smash, *puts hand over mouth* shit i wasn't meant to say that all fuck fuck fuck

Well I guess the cat is out of the bag we hear him say it during game play I think not sure but fuck i wasn't meant to say anything about that

USHER
... lol :3

I... kinda liked his performance >w>

Wanted to see more of DC3 though. I am a big fan of that and Rock Band :3

Poor Harmonix D: i would love to see more of that shit. But then again, what else can they do to innovate? They already have real instruments XD

DC3 can add so many features, it's amazing. So much to dancing, you know?

RB4 will probably be the perfect of "Innovate, perfect" motto that they have. As well you can go it the way of a sim/RPG-like band game and many other possibilities :3 Or open a new way to play, like Blitz!

I'm really skeptical of Watch Dogs

It's dev'd my Ubisoft Montreal, they made Deus Ex 3 which really wasn't that great.

Only hope I have is that Square isn't publishing it this time.

Montreal are also behind the assassins creed series which is amazing :P

Yeah that's the only glimmer of hope I have lool.

I seriously hope Square doesn't get their hands on the game. Jesus will weep otherwise :(

there's no chance Square will touch Ubi's original IP lol

Yeah, they're not Activision. Lulz

watchdogs, metro last light, dishonored
... half life 3 SHUTUP ITS COMING >3>

Resident Evil 6 was the only thing I saw that looked really good, but I'm weird, and capcom has let me down so many times in the last few years I dunno if I should even be excited for that. :(

ZombiU, The Last of Us and Watch Dogs caught my interest out of those. I can't wait to try out those games.

I enjoy this. :3 Please do more!

haha, I may write for a website sometime who knows! if so I'll link to it~!

Awesome to hear! :)

It was pretty refreshing to read good previews for stuff today rather than the over-hyped crap I've read so far. =/ You did a great job! :D

awwr, well thank you :3

Last of Us, Black Ops 2, Far Cry 3, AC3, Paper Mario 3DS

Not much into Halo or Black-Ops, but Last of Us, and Watch Dogs (and possibly AC3) are the only things that even somewhat sparked any interest for me. D: This year seems rather lackluster to me thus far.

I was so pissed at the Awesome Vita games I was playing on the show floor that Sony didn't even mention in their conference.
