It’s that time again, E3 will flood downtown LA bringing with it an immense collections of games, world premieres and tech marvels. If you were lucky enough to get a badge, the next 3 days is going to be a wild ride. We have seen the conferences ahead of time and it seems that the big companies are bringing great products for all of us to see.
There are many games I am excited for, though I can’t list them all here but one is definitely The Last of us II.
This is just a taste of what I am looking forward too. Of course this is PS4 exclusive.
We will be updating our Facebook and Instagram daily as we make. our way through the show. Please be sure to take a look at what we post and look at our pictures.
I remember being on the E3 show floor and watching the big screen they had playing above us. It was a game that showed a viking who was in battle, with some the most amazing weaponry and gear i’ve ever seen in a video game. I watched, and finally the name of game scrolled across the screen. For Honor.
That has been over a year now, and I’m so happy about playing the open beta on Feb 9-12. I chose to play as the Samurai and it is a game that I could find myself playing this for many hours.
The release date on For Honor is February 14th. Will you be picking this game up?
Here is the first 15 minutes of gameplay, brought to us by IGN.
E3, the Electronic Gaming Expo of the year has been made available to the public for the first time since it’s beginning. This is going to make for an interesting show floor, since it won’t be catering to industry or press only. The gamers will be there and they will be heard.
E3 2017 is June 13-15 this year, while briefings will begin Sunday June 11.
Pricing for the tickets were $149.00 for the first 1,000 people. After that it bumped up to $249. This is a decent price for attendance to this exclusive event.
Many details of the show haven’t been disclosed to us yet. We do know EA will be there, inside and usually outside too. This I find to be one of the best parts of E3.
If you haven’t bought your tickets yet and will be in the LA area, swing over to the E3 website.
I’ve been playing video games since I was a wee tot. It was about 7 years ago or so that I decided to try my first shooter, Call of Duty. I’ve been a loyal player for years with the occasional dabbling in Battlefield. I did enjoy Battlefield Hardline, story mode, but a glitch with it on my PS4 put that at an abrupt halt.
The excitement for Call of Duty Infinite Warfare was very present at E3. IT was hyped up and looked promising. As always I went to the midnight release and picked up my copy. It was soon after that I realized that fighting in space wasn’t exactly the makings of good game play. Running on walls, the cheating, the same old simple maps, were just not impressing me.
I decided that maybe the single player game would be full filling. Again I was wrong. There was nothing new here except location. The “rigs” we got to wear but nothing gripping.
Now I was absolutely adamant about not playing Battlefield 1. Even though I was very impressed at E3, I always considered myself a COD person, ya know?
I was wrong.
Battlefield 1 has a beautifully written storyline, an engulfing world which takes you back. The guns are not these high tech blasters, they are the older, real used guns you saw back in the war. The real war, not the one we are fighting in space.
I think COD needs to get back to basics. Back to what made them what they are today. I defiantly think that all the cheating, and if you don’t think there is any going on your severely mistaken, has to be regulated. Really, put people in rooms based on how they play, how they rank. Similar styles. I always get put in with clans who talk to each other, run on walls, have altered guns, and really it just makes the experience, well, not fun.
I still think there is hope for COD. I know there will be another installment. Let them follow Battlefield 1 and give us an engrossing storyline. WIth epic gameplay.
Tonight if you pre-order and download games, within just a few minutes you will be able to playLego Star Wars Force Awakens on your PS4 or XBOX One. Both are available to download and play at midnight EST, or 9pm PST. I happen to be in California, so it’s 9pm for me!
I did play the demo today, it surprisingly fun. I find some Lego games to be confusing, but not this one. It gripped me and brought me right in to the game with familiar characters that I know and love. A great things also is that many of the main characters are voiced by the actors in the films. I think that is pretty cool. With 200 characters, it’s totally going to be worth it. I purchased the deluxe edition. It was a mere $10.00 more and I figure I will want them later so might as well get them now.
I know we had Battlefront come out last year, but that game for me just didn’t have the dynamics in a game of Star Wars that I needed. Lego definitely does.
