What are the details on Mirror's Edge 2?

Soren · « **Reply #51 on:** June 10, 2013, 05:04:37 PM »

Release date: "when it's ready."

lol,

I'm sure I'm on record of saying $499. Even around when the Wii U's price was announced. Why, because of this.

no way sony can come in cheaper than this, right? 8gb gddr5 ram? $499.99 ps4?

Depends on how much Kinect cost, and how much of a loss Sony is willing to take per unit, I'd imagine.

Well, the EA Conference didn't do anything for me, but they never do so I'm not surprised. I was pleasantly surprised by the Plants vs. Zombies squad-based 3rd person shooter. That's an idea that sound incredibly dumb, but I have to admit that game looks kind of fun. Also, I'm in favor of seeing a Mirror's Edge 2 provided that there are no guns & the game focuses on the better elements of the 1st game: exciting running and traversal. I might pick up Titanfall on 360, but there's no way in hell I'm buying an Xbox One.

Also, although I have absolutely no interest whatsoever in Battlefield 4, it was pretty cool having those guys in multiplayer run up to the top of a building, jump out of it, and then see the entire massive skyscraper come down behind them in real-time.

Well, next stop is last year's Reigning E3 Champion: Ubisoft. Let's see if they can replicate their past glory.

The fact that the 499 figure has not been adjusted for European markets is frankly absurd. While I appreciate that comparing price points in different regions is not as simple as factoring in the exchange rate, £420 is equivalent to around $650. Which is insane.

Unfortunately £420 is far too expensive for me, I fully expect the PS4 to cost even more so that's out of the question, and currently I don't see any reason to own a Wii U. What I'm saying is that it might be a few years before I feel comfortable returning to console gaming.

From reading articles, did MS not announce more than one game for the actual launch?

I believe so, Ryse: Son of Rome is the only one they specifically mentioned as a launch title.

Other games have general dates, like they only said Dead Rising 3 will be this "holiday". They never said it would be at launch.

Its launch as its one of the day one games.

Lisa Miskovsky better be doing the theme song again. Still Alive was a great song.

shingi_70 · « **Reply #58 on:** June 10, 2013, 05:53:26 PM »

Was a bit surprised Microsoft didn't announce godus from 22cans.
Hoping to see Beyond Good and Evil 2 from Ubisoft next.

What the new UI looks like?

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #59 on:** June 10, 2013, 05:55:49 PM »

Ubisoft stream is live.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #60 on:** June 10, 2013, 05:58:08 PM »

So apparently the Australian launch price for XBox One is $599.

I am genuinely surprised by this. I was expecting at least $700.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #61 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:12:55 PM »

Splinter Cell Blacklist.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #62 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:15:03 PM »

Rayman Legends: Complete with jiggle physics.

September 3rd release

Soren · « **Reply #63 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:19:26 PM »

That jiggle made me feel...uneasy.

Also it's weird seeing the challenges in the trailer knowing we've been the only ones playing them for almost 2 months now.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #64 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:24:08 PM »

The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot?

That looked really dumb.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #65 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:28:24 PM »

The Crew.

Looks like an MMO racer?

Soren · « **Reply #66 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:29:24 PM »

"The Crew". That GPS kind looks Game Pad-ey, right? Right? Ahh ok the ending crushed my dreams. I think I'm just going to check out from the rest of this conference.

EDIT: I'm seeing the gameplay, and I'm having a hard time believing Wii U couldn't handle this game. It must be a business decision.

EDIT 2: Watch_Dogs...well that was disappointing. Not a single bit of gameplay in that trailer...

shingi_70 · « **Reply #67 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:52:54 PM »

The Crew looks like it can be on Wii U.

Damn Unisoft fell hard this year.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #68 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:53:47 PM »

Rabbids invasion? Looks lame as hell.

shingi_70 · « **Reply #69 on:** June 10, 2013, 07:04:47 PM »

Two new trails games is awesome.

TrueNerd · « **Reply #70 on:** June 10, 2013, 07:06:51 PM »

Hey look! Microsoft finally provided something of value for subscribing to Xbox Live!

broodwars · « **Reply #71 on:** June 10, 2013, 07:21:50 PM »

Well, I think it's safe to say that Ubisoft's in serious jeopardy of losing their crown this year, because that Press Conference was pitiful. We already knew about the vast majority of the games, and what games there were were 90% trailers, pre-rendered or otherwise. Rayman Legends looks great, but we already knew that. The Division looks...like another post-apocalyptic shooter, albeit an exceptionally pretty one. "Meh", overall. C'mon, Sony! It's up to you now to bail this lousy E3 out!

TrueNerd · « **Reply #72 on:** June 10, 2013, 07:25:04 PM »

So what the hell was that Beyond Good and Evil 2 trailer all those years ago? The biggest cocktease ever? (The Last Guardian is also in the running for this title, sadly.)

It was in development but Rayman sold well so the team was taken off of it. Its similar to how the rayman franchise got put of hold because the rabbids got popular.

Shorty McNostril · « **Reply #74 on:** June 10, 2013, 07:27:39 PM »

I think The Division looks very nice.

There were some very nice details in there that all added to the overall immersion.

I like the way he closed the car door he was hiding behind, and when he picked up the water. It did't just vanish, the character reached out and grabbed it. All nice animations.
