Battlefield 1 Continues To Look Intense As Hell

By: Tyler Miller

EA closed their terrible press conference with a cool gameplay trailer for DICE’s Battlefield 1. The game looks gorgeous as expected, and even crazier than the reveal trailer was. Of course the gameplay in the trailer was highly scripted and no game is ever going to play out the one in this trailer, but it still looks like it’ll be loads of fun. DICE announced that the game will have dynamic weather such as fog and rain that’ll affect your gameplay, better destruction, and new vehicles called “Behemoths.” Airships, an armored train, and a battleship are all “Behemoths” that players will be able to use and turn the tide of a battle in their favor. There’s also going to be an open beta sometime this summer.

Battlefield 1 launches October 21 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Hey Guys! EA Is Making Star Wars Games For The Future!

By: Tyler Miller

So that headline is complete sarcasm. Were you expecting to get some real good looks at some new Star Wars games? So was I. Too bad we’ve both been incredibly disappointed by EA’s press conference that offered nothing more than a developer diary that essentially said “Hey, we’re working on a bunch of different Star Wars games! They’ll be out sometime in the future! Please be excited.” The most solid information we got was that Respawn’s game takes place in a brand new era, and Visceral’s game is completely original and won’t be out until 2018. We also got a look at one piece of concept art and a short in engine clip of a character walking out of a house for Visceral’s game. Not much to latch onto there. Thanks for letting me down EA.

Take Another Look At Mass Effect: Andromeda

By: Tyler Miller

It’s Mass Effect Andromeda guys! It’s here at E3! It’s time to get real excited everyone! Well, not to excited because although we got a better look at the game than we have in recent years, we still didn’t get much information about the game during EA’s press conference earlier. The game does look beautiful, I can’t deny that. It just sucks so much that EA dropped the ball and showed another developer diary video with only a bit of what we really wanted to see. They did promise that more information will be released later this Fall though, so there’s something to look forward to.

Titanfall 2 Debuts Its Campaign And Multiplayer

By: Tyler Miller

Kicking off EA’s press conference earlier this afternoon was Respawn’s Titanfall 2, and it certainly made an impression. I never got a chance to play the first game, but the sequel seems to be upping the ante big time when it comes to the multiplayer. Pilots now have different abilities they can perform, grenades that suck up enemies, and a grappling hook they can use to traverse the environment or attack enemies. The Titans themselves now appear to have new abilities and weapons as well.

As for the single player campaign, the game looks to be greatly expanding the universe and getting more in depth with the bond between the pilot and their Titan. The Titans now have something resembling a personality, causing them to be even more connected to their pilots than before. The campaign doesn’t look too amazing based solely off of this trailer, but it looks like it’ll at least be good.

Titanfall 2 launches October 28 on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

At long last we’ve come to the last stop on our Road to E3 2016. Sony will be the final press conference of the show, and they are sure to have a great show. Last year they brought the heat with The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Shenmue III, so expectations are astronomically high for them this year. Without further ado, let’s take a nice look at what Sony has in store for us.

DC’s Heroes And Villains Are Fighting Once Again In Injustice 2

By: Tyler Miller

2013’s Injustice: Gods Among Us is finally getting a sequel, simply called Injustice 2. Based on the limited information that’s been revealed, the story of the game follows Batman and other heroes fighting to stop those that want to revive Superman’s regime from the first game. At the same time, a new potentially world ending threat is coming to Earth, forcing our heroes to have to face that as well.

There’s also a cool new Gear System in the game that gives you gear after each match you partake in as a loot drop that’s specific to your character. This gear allows you to customize your fighter and make them stronger, changing their appearance and the way that you fight as them.

Lastly, we have three brand new characters announced for the game. They are Supergirl, Gorilla Grodd, and the Red Lantern Atrocitus.

Injustice 2 launches on PS4 and Xbox One later this year.

Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Gets An Awesome New Trailer

By: Tyler Miller

Early this morning, Square Enix released a brand new trailer for the upcoming Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (that’s a mouthful), and it is amazing. There’s lots of new footage here showcasing combat as Aqua in 0.2 – A fragmentary Passage and a fair amount of story cutscenes from Back Cover. There’s also some Dream Drop Distance in there as well, but it’s nowhere near as exciting as the other two games. The best part? Confirmation of a worldwide release this December! Unfortunately it doesn’t look like we’ll be getting any Kingdom Hearts 3 news until this winter, but hopefully the team at Square Enix surprises us next week and has a trailer of sorts to show off.
