We were expecting to see at least one new game launch during E3 – those hallowed words “It’s available now†always prompt a cheer. You may even have that phrase on your E3 bingo card. During EA’s conference, the publisher revealed Unravel Two is launching today. This indie sequel has a focus on co-op, starring …
Bethesda starts off the E3 conferences this year. If you can stay wake until 3am (BST) expect to see lots of more of Fallout 4, Doom 4, Battlecry and the all-but-officially-confirmed Dishonored 2. Maybe a couple of other surprises – current-gen revamps of the original Dishonored and Fallout 3/New Vegas have been rumoured in the …
With last year’s E3 conferences all about the new consoles, this year the games were the centrepiece. Sony were keen on showing us quite a lot of them. If E3 was a fight – and it sort of is, let’s face it – Sony once again stepped it up. Microsoft’s Xbox conference was an improvement …
It’s that time of year again. As most of you know, somewhere in America the annual gaming expo known as E3 (pronounced “eeeeeeeh!”) is happening. Specifically in Los Angeles from June 10-12th, but what does that mean for us British folk? The big publishers are all holding press conferences to showcase their new titles today …
If we were asked to describe the special E3 Nintendo Direct in one word, that word would be “safeâ€. The itinerary read like a list of everything we expected, with very little in the way of surprises. That’s unless you count Bayonetta receiving a new haircut, anyway. Pokemon X & Y started the pre-recorded exposé …
On the console front, Sony clearly gave Microsoft a bloody nose last night. However, both the PS4 and Xbox One were slightly lacking in amazing new first party titles, so it was left to Ubisoft to come up with one of the most impressive new titles of the show. Ubisoft’s Tom Clancy’s The Division is …
There are high expectations for this year’s E3 conferences. Microsoft filled in the blanks surrounding the Xbox One, and now it’s Sony’s turn to elaborate on the PlayStation 4. Specifically, what will it actually look like, and how excited should we really be? You can watch the video stream of Sony’s E3 conference below, which …
Microsoft didn’t so much pull a rabbit out of the hat for their E3 conference, but rather a whole warren’s worth of them – the return of franchises new and old, and surprises galore. Apart from a short SmartGlass demo, the conference was solely about software and began in the best possible fashion – in-game …
Grab a jar of granulated coffee and a spoon – E3 is about to begin, and it should be a corker. Well, better than last year’s damp squib at the very least. Microsoft kicks off the conferences tonight at 17:30pm (UK, GMT). With the Xbox One already unveiled all signs point to Microsoft focusing solely …
One of the more amusing things from Microsoft to be spotted at E3 was this Halo-influenced bar menu: Apparently the food menu consisted of just two types of onion ring – battered or bread-crumbed.
Nintendo’s conference left fans a little perplexed. No less than 23 games were on show, which is a figure none too shabby, but most had already been announced while the rest felt distinctly casual. At least things got off on the right foot with a demonstration of Pikmin 3 on Wii U. The visuals are …
Sony’s E3 2012 press conference came and went, much as expected, and a little light on dramatic unveilings. Whilst the big hitters such as The Last of Us and God of War: Ascension oozed quality, the biggest surprise of the night was arguably Wonderbook, an augmented reality… book. In its favour, the first Wonderbook title, …
There have been so many leaks over the past few days that the only new games to be shown during Microsoft’s E3 conference were a handful of Xbox Live Arcade titles along with some Nike fitness software. Even Ubisoft’s reasonably impressive looking Splinter Cell: Blacklist was ousted a few hours before the show. Things kicked …
E3 is now go. Are you excited? We are excited. Let’s speculate, with some very improbable predictions, shall we? Ubisoft hands out free rabbits in order to promote 3DS title Rabbids Rumble. By the end of the week the price of carrots inflates to an all-time high. Out of force of habit, 2K Games puts …
Nintendo’s decision to release a special pre-E3 edition of their news show Nintendo Direct has a slight knee-jerk feel to it. Most have assumed it’s because EA and Ubisoft are planning to show their Wii U titles at E3 on Monday, which is something they wouldn’t be able to do without showing off the new …
