A thread for the E3 games we wanna talk about but don't wanna talk about quite badly enough to make individual threads for.

Conference times:

More detailed schedule (http://www.ign.com/wikis/e3/E3_2015_Press_Conferences_UK_Times) here.

The MS conference is going on right now. Fullbright just showed a bit of Tacoma. You'll be able to float around in zero-g and do sign language! I guess it'll be a XB1 sclusie, but hopefully just for a while.

Would someone at E3 please show something that involves some sort of creativity jesus. Why on earth am I watching the stream of this.

Naah, E3 is mainly for big FUCK YEAH spectacles. If it's creativity you're looking for I point you in the direction of (https://itch.io/) the itch.io frontpage.

It would be interesting to see a tally of all the games presented at E3 and what percentage of them are sequels/reboots.

Jason Moyer on 15/6/2015 at 20:38

I dunno what the overall % is, but it seems like every single thing that I'm interested in is part of a franchise and that makes me feel dirty. Fallout 4, Mirror's Edge 2, Dishonored 2, Mass Effect 4, Deus Ex 4, probably something I'm forgetting.

I can't imagine the world wouldn't be better if we were getting BethSoft's new walking simulator, DiCE's new runner, Arkane's new immersive sneaker, Bioware's new sci-fi action RPG, and Eidos Montreal's new conspiracy thriller instead. And that's without really breaking any kind of creative ground other than "not using a title and stuffing a number on the end of it".

How am I supposed to know I should be excited about something, if it's not a sequel to something I liked? :cheeky:

So, apparently Xbones can emulate 360 games now: (http://gamerant.com/xbox-one-backwards-compatible-e3-2015-108/)

The Last Guardian, Shenmue 3 and Final Fantasy VII remake.

We are living in end times.

Seeing as I've got a huge library of 360 games, that certainly piqued my interest in the XB1. But then I have to remind myself of how many of the backwards-compatible XBox games I ended up playing on the 360, and the answer is "not a whole lot".

Ghost Recon Wildlands looks good! My favourite parts of the Ubigames is taking over outposts, so this is right up my alley. Tho I'm likely to leave the rest of the team behind and go dirtbiking through the wilderness on my own first chance I get. Man I hope the bike physics are good. And the talk at the end about making the enemy wipe eachother out makes me hope there'll be some kinda nemesis system, tho that's probably just wishful thinking. So yeah, looking forward to this one. It looks gorgeous as well. A tad too superduper serious and grim though.
