there is literally no way atari is dumb enough to think they can just make room for another console in the wars

unless they are, which would be hilarious

What if this is the 1980s playing out again?! Are we back to the start of the cycle? History repeats as they say!

I refuse to believe it's anything past an all-in-one or an Ouya-style pile of garbage.


in other news, this made me feel all tingly in the nostalgia

I hope the whole show is animated this well. The artstyle lends itself to fluid animation, at least.

So it seems Project Rap Rabbit is a huge failure, earning less than a fifth of it's Kickstarter goal

The devs say they "had meetings over the future of rhythm-action" and hope this isn't the last we hear about the game but it probably will be.

I think the first game hits a pretty good niche on the line between being edgy for the sake of it and being edgy in an effective and scary way. Outlast 2 doesn't just go over that line, it fires itself out of a trebuchet over the castle walls of good taste and lands right on its loving face in a pile of ye olde pig poo poo.

I wish there were an IMDB style site for games where I could read plot summaries without having to watch an LP or play it, as I'm a wuss with horror games but still want to read about the hosed up plot of games like Outlast.

Capcom did a stream of Monster Hunter World gameplay but it was all in japanese and I've never played a MonHun so no idea if it was good or bad.

I wouldn't say Sony's was the worst but it was pretty boring in a here's yet another fancy looking AAA game again way.
At least we got a look at SotC remake.

Should have given the Rabbit boobs if they wanted the big Kickstarter bucks.

Hot take: The rapping rabbit game looked embarrassingly bad.

What about the Sony coference was so bad

Do people need embarrassing idiots on stage endlessly talking about poo poo nobody cares about or is just constant trailers with the occasional show by that one Sony dude really that unsatisfactory, there wasn't anything like an MGS2 trailer but there were some definitely interesting ones there, the SOC remake and monster hunter off the top of my head looked rad as gently caress

Edit: and if dbz hadn't totally eaten it's lunch the mvc infinite trailer might've been a bit more interesting (aside from the horrific Chunli)

Monster hunter was the only new game in the one year since E3 2016 was my issue. And all the other crap they showed was terminally boring

I dunno if I'd call Sony's conference bad when we have EA and Bethesda, but it was pretty much E3 2016 again. The only new title they showed was The Inpatient, wasn't it?

But then again, I wouldn't call it a big deal since they got their own Playstation Experience event which is pretty much a weekend to show all the cool stuff they're doing, that one will be hot.

My favorite part of Sony's E3 presser was seeing it in a theater, and the first three trailers volume be whisper quiet. At first everyone was super quiet in order to hear it, until one guy goes "Man I'm sorry but I can't deal with this, thank god it's free" causing everyone to burst out laughing. He then started making stupid "vroom vroom" noises when the Days Gone guy was driving around on his bike.
