Well, today was Microsoft's shot at E3 and... Well, of the MANY games shown, I was only deeply interested in three, and one of them is being released for the Xbox 360. Let me not get ahead of myself. They started by showing the new Metal gear solid, introducing an open world and a really cool looking game all around. They then started to talk about the new XBOX ONE and it's exclusives. They began with a game called Ryse, the game was honestly a gritty gross looking game, and it seemed to be a copy of many other games like it, war based hack and slash (similar to dynasty warriors only not even close to as awesome) The game sucks IMO and wasn't impressive. They were acting like OMFG this game is SO genius and new! It's not, it's not even. The game is nothing new and wasn't that impressive. Killer Instinct was shown next, although it's nice they are brining back classics, the game didn't seem very impressive. It had sub-par graphics, and nothing impressive really about it either. NExt up was a game called Max, Curse of the brotherhood. Now, this game was actually decent, it seemed solid platforming fun, BUT, it's not great enough to make me want an XBOX One. Dark Souls 2 was shown, that was cool to my friends but didn't catch my eye at all. Next we have Sunset Overdrive, one of the three games I mentioned that caught my eye, mostly because it's made by Insomniac Games, and they make amazing games. That said, it didn't shown any gameplay :( After all these disappointments, they showed Forza 5 and it was sexy looking. That said, I'm not a huge fan of Forza (mostly because I am not good at the games XD) but, anyone who likes racing games will LOVE this one. Then they showed the second game on my list of OMFG games, the game called Project Spark. This game is amazing looking, and is the ONLY game shown that actually made me want to play it for the ONE. The Project Spark game was the only truly innovative ONE Exclusive. It allwos you to quickly create an entire world, and create your own story. You can make your enemies, and give AI to ANYTHING inanimate or animate, you decide how the game plays while still being able to add challenge or not. It's also highly co-operative, with various calsses and a lot of innovative look to it. I am exited about this one. After that nothing was up to par, it showed Quantum Break which is ONLY good if you watch the TV show. Crimson Dragon HAD NO SOUND, The Witcher 3 looked meh, Dead Rising 3 actually looked really fun, I don't know if I want to play it or not since I'm not into Zombie games but it looks fun as hell and it's cool how you can attach items together to make new ones (One time he attached a saw to a hammer and had a double bladed DEATH BLADE XD) Below was retarded, I mean VERY bad. You cannot even see your player, the camera was zoomed WAY above and you cannot tell without squinting what's going on! The game was....Off. Halo was not even a game, it's an INTERACTIVE SHOW. What the fuck?! I want games dammit!!! Then they showed Minecraft ONE, but ALL they kept doing was bragging about how many fucking people play the game, they never gave any information about what kind of changes they are making, if they are adding mods or anything like that. NOW THE GOOD STUFF! You will have the ability to, and I quote, "Record your gameplay and stream it LIVE" You can TURN OFF THE KINECT so thank god to that. It's going to have Sharing, so you can now give games to your friends and also LEND GAMES OUT over the internet! The "possibility of renting games isn't without possibility" which is a very exiting concept to me, I would love to be able to rent games again, and play many games happily!! :) Cloud Processing allows AI to adapt to you, but, even better you can create Ghost versions of YOURSELF, the Xbox will watch how you play, and how you move and how you interact and make a perfect copy/ghost for people to play against, even when not there, giving the ability to play solo if your friends are not on!!!!! :D THE BAD The Smart Glass was talked about constantly, I don't care for it. I don't really care about Kinect either way, but, they barley spoke about it. THE UGLY EA FAILED! They did....Bad. EA's game didn't start properly, and there was no sound. They eventually got it to work after 5 minutes of the guy on stage acting off (he got mad because the crowd was laughing at him) and somoene booed him!!! And he got mad lol. When they finally DID show BAttlefield 4 it seemed too chaotic and crazy, to much going on on screen it overwhelmed me just THINKING about playing that game. EA is evil though so who woulda thunk? Now the news of the price and release date... The system will be 499$ American :( And it releases in November. They did not say anything about the backwards compatibility or not, nor did they say anything about playing used games, so those questions should have been answered! Xbox has also put an end to many of the nasty rumors put toward it, at this here link you can find out the answers you've wanted. http://www.trueachievements.com/n13475/xbox-one-privacy-connectivity-and-game-licensing.htm Thanks for reading, I'd like to hear your opinions too!

Yeah the live event was good but wished microsoft should of came out about more on the about the XBone on lending/selling games, and buying used games, and about what happens if you have no internet what so ever. Luckily trueachievements.com touched base on that(Will provide the link at the end). The games were ok some looked awesome such as titan fall, forza 5, project spark, and metal gear solid 5 I was also surprised that they didn't show CoD ghosts but meh whatever. Smartglass well its cool and all but who is going to use their tablet with a game console mostly likely no one. Overall their E3 was good but not the best and I HOPED they busted some rumors but nope they didn't great job microsoft(not). the price for the XBone is kind of high but then again its reasonable. I found funny on EA's fail that made me laugh a bit and also there was a boo in the background. The share gold is cool and the AI in the cloud is cool. But overall it was good but not the best. http://www.trueachievements.com/n13475/xbox-one-privacy-connectivity-and-game-licensing.htm

I'll just take a wait and see approach for the console,with money being scarce due moving,i'll likely stick with the 360 and my PS2 for the foreseeable future. EA Sports is one of my favorite companies so i don't consider them evil,it is however a very embarrassing moment to have a trial game moment fail especially at a major event like E3.

You are wrong Len, sorry to say. It doesn't matter how good or bad their games are, it has NOTHING to do with that. I never said they don't have good games. EA's DEVELOPERS deserve praise for their sports games, and their games. HOWEVER, when I say EA is evil I mean to say their publishers, EA games are evil, and there are many reasons, I can give you ten. 1.) Forced Multiplayer For Broader Appeal 2.) Rehashing IPs To Cash-In 3.) Massive Expenses With Small Profits Every time publishers throw it up in the face of gamers that gaming is getting more and more expensive and that used games are evil, piracy is killing the industry and mobile games will overthrow consoles, it fills gamers with a sense of guilt where they feel they must buy new games at $60 a pop even when the games aren't even that good. EA is going to KILL the uised game industry, and this is going to make people like you and I, who can barley afford games as it is, HAVE to pay full price for USED games. 4) Marketing EA's money goes into marketing a lot, so they can sell games. But the thing is, they also put this money into things like DLC charity events, fake Christians protesting for controversy, and anti gay movements to deflect from bad PR!! 5.) Buying Out Studios And Gutting Them Yeah, EA does this too. They buy out and kill perfectly good video game studios, leaving their people jobless and poor, and ripping down the one job those people want to do, because, they love video games. 6.) Origin Two Year Entitlement Clause this two year entitlement clause caused all sorts of vengeful fury from gamers. The idea that you HAD to use Origin within two years lest your account fall victim to mandatory expulsion generated a furor, and rightfully so. EA later threw up their hands and said "Oh, ho, ho, ho...that clause wasn't real, we just put it there by mistake!! 7.) Origin Forum Bans Result In Bans From All Your Purchased Games! YEAH so if your banned from their ONLINE FORUM you get banned FORM YOUR GAMES TOO!!! 8.) Early Server Shutdowns This is the BIGGEST piss off for me, they shut down servers like no tomorrow, so you can no longer play g games online, sometimes after as much as a year. 9.) Online Passes ONLINE PASSES. This shit is so bad it should be illegal. An online pass is where you have to BUY the rights to play a game online, and if you buy a game used and the pass is already used? You have to re-purchase it twice. 10.) Day-One DLC Putting out DLC on the FIRST DAY of release! That means, you buy a game (say for 60$) and now have to purchase MORE content, for another 40-60$. The content is releasedo n day one, meaning it could haev EASILY been put on the disc. NEED I GO ON??? Edited by Chaco, Jun 12 2013, 04:13 PM.
