...
Here's the thing: most of the 3rd party developers aren't going whole-hog into the new systems yet,
...

That is the exact reason they need to drop the PS3 to Technical Support level.  They still patch, promote, and update that system but, they stop dedicating projects to it.  It has plenty of 3rd party support it doesn't need Sony Resources to still profitably cruise.  The PS4 on the other hand needs to start building its base or we'll be back in a XP Win7 style scenario.

Yeah that has got to be a fake Baby Bump.  I don't know any Pregnant women who would be doing all that without collapsing right afterwards.

Karma should have went a long time ago when it became painfully obvious the experiment failed.

On the flipside now I don't know if I'm good or evil.

Probably the same as Smash.  An AI Player to race and race with you.

Sure Sells Potential says that the 3DS version is going to have more sales than the Wii U.  Now I think the Wii U is going to have a much larger percentage of system owners owning the game.

With the first Avengers movie being the 3rd highest grossing movie of all time, Joss Whedon now has the resources and flexibility to pull off what will be Marvel's biggest comic book movie to date.

This part of that article concerns me.  I don't want Episode 1 to happen here.

Netflix is reviving The Magic School Bus with 26 new episodes.
http://www.slashfilm.com/netflix-magic-school-bus-reboot/

I take issue with it being CG.
The problem with CG in a kid show is how difficult it is to randomly add little touches on a whim.  What was going on in the background and all the little things in the Magic Schoolbus really worked for that series.

I always wanted to try Pac-In-Time (puns!), but that cartridge was extremely difficult to find. This is coming from someone who has Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, and EarthBound on SNES. I originally mistook it for Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures which was awful.

Hey now, Pac-Man 2 I will grant was not that good of a game but, it did have its amusing moments.

Maybe the whole game is gender-swapped.

Just Link. Then, Female Link and Princess Zelda get married at the end. Take that, Tomodachi Life controversy.

STOP.  Just stop.  There is already to many, "Oh by they way there Lesbians."  Why can't it be Link and Prince Zelda who then gets married at the end?

No way streets Gotham will have more people walking around, it's an obvious design decision to prevent Batman running over people.
They've already made huge concessions to make Batmobile "work" -- such as adding stupid Battank mode and making so that you can destroy lampposts and other random stuff environment.
 

I'll get a PS4 for New Super Sackboy

You're in luck -- LBP3 will also be on PS3.

Which I think is a HUGE mistake on Sony part.  LBP has proven to be an Evergreen game of sorts.  The PS4 badly needs this type of exclusive.  I think Sony should have played the long game with this one and made it PS4 exclusive.  They are shooting themselves in the foot with these PS3/4 games.  For most of us PS3 is good enough and the PS4 doesn't even offer something like Portability that the Vita offers.

Sony needs to justify the PS4 as more than just the new shiny for most people.  They might as well just release the bugger for Vita too so it can go to Playstation TV.

I'm going to come across gendericist or something but, that looked like a male to me.  Especially the facial expressions that were given.  I personally think its wishful thinking that that model was a girl.  In fact I go as far as to say its a traditional Zelda style male to boot.

It could not be Link.  That be interesting if the story was done in different parts.

Those look really nice.  I wonder if they'll leave the Super Smash Bros. logo on the upper left since Amiibos are compatible with several games.

Probably as a series indicator.

In this case the spraying of the Ink is integral to the objective of the game.  In theory you could win without hitting your opponent.  We all know that won't happen but there is nothing in the game system stopping that outcome.

Batman did indeed look awesome, the scope of the city was nice. But dang it, those empty empty streets irritate me!

You know the game has at least another 6 months of development, right?

Though at that point in time would you really want to be walking around Gotham?

If only a F-Zero game is announced for the Wii U.

There's always next year

There's always next year

*squirms in straightjacket, rocks slowly against padded wall*

There's always next year....

Yet another reason to look forward to 2015: the year of F-Zero, Half Life 3, The Last Guardian, Beyond Good & Evil 2, & a North American localization for Mother 3. #E3HypeTrain

You forgot Kingdom Hearts 3.


I'm hearing more and more that "Yeah the actual game is done but the testing is not."  A lot this year.  Smash getting pushed to October and why both are being released together.  Why there is no PC version of Destiny.  It sounds like the creative tools are getting better more efficient.  Which leads to more time being paid in testing since it is easier to add more.

If they are going more Open World this time like the Original Zelda as they say I hope they take there Cues from the games in that Family, LoZ LttP LBW, where the world felt a good size but wasn't huge and each area had a purpose and something to make them more then just blank space except where that was the puzzle, LoZ Death Mountain.

Now I want Bub and Bob in the game because that would be interesting.  Bubble Pop Smash.

Meet your new Kingpin - Vincent D'Onofrio is cast in Daredevil Netflix series
http://marvel.com/news/tv/2014/6/10/22659/vincent_donofrio_is_wilson_fisk_on_marvels_daredevil_on_netflix

Marvel and Netflix are proud to announce that acclaimed actor Vincent D’Onofrio has joined “Marvel’s Daredevil,” an all-new 13-episode series premiering on Netflix in 2015. Best known for his critically-lauded work in “Law & Order: Criminal Intent,” “Men in Black, “Full Metal Jacket” and “Homicide,”  D’Onofrio will play Wilson Fisk, a powerful businessman whose interests in the future of Hell’s Kitchen will bring him into conflict with the blind attorney Matt Murdock and his alter ego Daredevil.

D’Onofrio joins Charlie Cox, previously announced as Matt Murdock, in the exciting cast of “Marvel’s Daredevil.”

“We’re incredibly proud to have an actor with the gravitas and versatility of Vincent joining 'Marvel’s Daredevil' in such an integral role,” said Jeph Loeb, Marvel’s Head of Television. “Wilson Fisk is an iconic villain whose cunning and power make him the dangerous equal of our hero."

Good choice i say. I was hoping they'd go for someone with menacing physical presence like Michael Clarke Duncan though. Terry Crews, for instance.

He has some big shoes to fill because I though Michael Clarke Duncan performance in the DareDevil move was excellent.

Awesome...and disappointing. I'm logging off this site until AFTER the Nintendo Digital Event is over. That may be the only surprise and now I just looked at my presents before Christmas.

At least you can take refuge in the idea that you weren't going to get to play with it till next Christmas no matter what.

Phil Spencer sung his Siren directly at me.

Only real main complaints is I want a traditional single player Fable as well as legends, and I feel that they might have well ported ODST and Reach to the ONE as well.

I don't think the Market value will change of the PS4 and Games that much Shingi.  Unless you really want Titanfall I probably just wait for a more appealing bundle.

I think I saw a clip in the end Montage.

I'll talk more on the E3 Episode of NFR but, this conference could have gone better.  Also I'm more than a little sick and tired of these conferences being about 70% or more M content.

Grim Fandango is PS4/Vita, so if you're just in for that one a Vita is a way cheaper option.

Vita TV be cheaper still.
