Wait what? You've only played 3 and Reach? That explains it. Go play the Anniversary Halo CE, which is pretty much Halo 1 with Reach graphics. It's fucking great, and what hooked me on the Halo series. Two was pretty good as well, where as I personally don't care for 3 or Reach at ALL.

Halo 1 is the only one I have any interest in due to having an allegedly solid, story-driven singleplayer. And even then, I'm not laying down money for a goddamn XBox when it gets 2 exclusives per year on average compared to my PS3's shit ton and THEN shelling out for Live so I can play fucking online when I can do the same shit for free on PS3.

James, yeah, they're pretty much trying to get in on the Uncharted market by making Tomb Raider an exclusive. Oh hey, let's give Drake boobs.

The EA conference is sucking just as much. Battlefield 3 Premium service, Bioware expansion pack, Medal of Honor (Reject CoD): The Browning (Everything is so broooown)

Edit: It's so annoying how they're trying to connect everything to social media and call it innovation.

AOTKorby

The only consolation for EA's bullshit Premium service is that it isn't a subscription piece of shit like COD ELITE.

It's still shit though, that's what counts.

I could stab a guy in the arm and say "Hey, at least I didn't stab you in the face." But at the end of the say, I still stabbed the dude in the arm. Yes, I'm comparing a premium service to stabbing someone... COME AT ME!

The only interesting game right now has been Need for Speed Most Wanted which is made by Criterion, they make amazingly good car games. The rest of EA has been horrible so far. But it's going to be an Origin exclusive, so screw that.

I like how EA have totally raped Battlefield 3 then introduced a premium service.

I'm not buying another map-pack for a game that dropped corporate servers when it started letting people pay to rent them.

Also, Usher. What.

Demi-God

My favourite thing about the Usher part, was the presenter after him using the phrase "Ushering in a new..." right after and he had the smuggest look on his annoying face, as if he had spent all night coming up with that.

Also Usher at the end of his dance had this look on his face as if he just blew peoples minds, like they were lucky to be having him when people people just wanted him to bugger off.

As for Ubisofts conference, Aisha Tyler is a horrible presenter who just made it awkward to watch.

So far, Far Cry 3, Assassins Creed 3 and that game with the phone hacking look interesting. I'm kind of glad most of the games are either crap or not really new, just means I won't have to waste as much money next year on games.

LonelyNinja

Captain Keyes and Sergeant Johnson look like they have Down's. Other than that, yes, worth playing.

Jaxon

Watch Dogs looks amazing, but I'm having trouble believing the game will have many approaches to your mission, and that consoles will handle a game that looks that good.

AOTKorby

I hope Watch Dogs leans toward open world rather than linearity. The kind of power you have there is just asking for screwing around and fucking stuff up for the lulz. It'd be a shame if you couldn't utilize it.

I liked being able to switch between graphic modes, to real time Halo 1 graphics. I couldn't believe how horrible they looked after not playing the game for so long. I remember thinking how awesome those same graphics were when the game first came out.

AOT: Halo 1 is definitely the best of the series, at least, for single player. Halo 2 was an awesome multiplayer game, had the most legit matchmaking, ranks, maps, and weapons. Something they seriously fucked up on 3 and Reach. You seem like you have some kind of grudge against Xbox, so none of that matters I suppose.

Watch Dogs looks promising, though I'm more interested in the AI than anything. Specifically, I'm wondering if the guy here is the kind of thing that happens dynamically or if that was specifically scripted for the demo.

LonelyNinja

Watch Dogs does look like a lot of fun. Got that GTA feel to it.

OG

i only watched the ubisoft bit of e3, main host failz. all her jokes missed, lol. helps that she didnt smile much and her tone was consistently on the serious side. they are talking about games, should be more animated and at least smile. Games are for funnnn XD
