Intel hyping their i9 now. It will play great with Destiny 2 on PC! Woot!

 

PUBG! Now I'm excited.

 

Pretty hyped for the new features, especially the additional player locomotion system they're hoping to add!

 

Yeah it sounds like it is only going to get better. Can't wait to see the new maps. The feature of reviewing your play will be cool. I can see how I got killed.

 

graphic wise I think Anthem was the most impressive.

 

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus – E3 2017 Full Reveal Trailer

 

40 must-see PC gaming gems from E3 2017: Watch every trailer

Skull and Bones may be fun. I'd like a good pirate game. Arrrr ...

 

It looks great, but I'll wait and see after it's released. If it is just 4 player co-op I doubt I'll be getting it. I'm interested to see Battlefront 2.

 

Too early to judge. There wasn't shown much about it.

So far only impressed by two games - new Metro and Wolfenstein. The rest didn't grab my attention.

 

Graphics, open world and jet packs alone don't make a good game. Great example - Mass Effect Andromeda.

 

It is developed by the core team in Edmonton compared to the team in Montreal who's mainly responsible for MEA

 

Great E3 this year. Games I'm most looking forward to for PC:

• Middle-earth: Shadow of War. Thoroughly enjoyed the first game and really looking forward to its sequel.
• Ori and the Will of the Wisps. I hadn't heard of this series until just now, but I love Metroidvania games, and this series looks and sounds amazing. I just bought Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition on Steam (it's on sale for US $9.99 through June 19th) and can't wait to crack it open.
  
• Star Wars: Battlefront 2... maybe. It'll likely depend on the quality and length of the single-player campaign.
• Anthem and Destiny 2 (never played the first Destiny): I'm keeping an open mind about them. We'll see.

A shame that there was no news about a new Batman: Arkham title.

I'm honestly more excited about Nintendo's announcements, and I don't even have a Switch or 3DS. Mario Odyssey looks amazing, Metroid Prime 4 (!!!), Metroid: Samus Returns, and Xenoblade. And while I haven't played a Pokemon game since Silver and Gold were released something like 15 years ago, my inner 12-year-old is gleeful to finally see a true Pokemon RPG game on a home console. My biggest takeaway from this E3 is that I should probably buy a Switch sometime soon.

 

There's still time

Wednesday 14 June: 11:30 AM - 4:40 PM
Thursday 15 June: 11:30 AM - 4:40 PM"

 

Thank you!! Looks like I was getting ahead of myself with disappointment. I'll be looking forward to these announcements with keen interest.

 

Most of the people who made Bioware the Bioware are gone...

 

That's not entirely true. A number of the core team from OT Mass Effect are gone, but many of the original members of Bioware are still there (Aaryn Flynn, James Ohlen, Drew Karpyshyn, etc).

 

Man, Ditto..!!

That showcase of Anthem was too good to be true, It's superb to see all that extreme tessellation and vegetation with AA level to maxxx but I'll believe when I see the real gameplay not neutered. Ofc this is EA with Frostbite unlike the Ubitroll, who doesn't downgrade, But also the game is an MMO, A huge BUMMER !! Period.

I want a good SP campaign ffs. Very very less FPS games these days.. majority of them would be zero recoil which is damn booring. Even the SWBF SP campaign, No idea how would it be..the MP same boring BF4 repeat and still not on BF4 level except the StarWars sticker plastered over it to make monies by the conglomerate Disney, plus the Third person shooter and FPS cameras in same server, A big fat joke tbh, destroys the fun and enthusiasm totally..

Glad to see Wolfenstein II : The New Colossus & Metro : Exodus, Which were the real stars of E3, for me at the very least. Bethesda people really are the only ones left who make the real games - Prey, DOOM and a notch lesser the FO4, Dishonored 2.

I hoped there would be another BioShock or perhaps another Borderlands from 2K...

This got me intrigued

 

What did they show. Nothing - just graphics and jetpacks.

 

Yes, a hub location and some jungle.

EDIT: my bad, I haven't seen that Eurogamer video yet. Thought you were talking about the first trailer.

 

we saw a gorilla boss thing, indicating difficulty restricted locations. underwater exploration, some weaponry, combat, loot, mobs, armor choices, weather.

I mean it showed way more than most games. I don't know why so much saltiness.

 

No Arkham announcement Ah well.

 

Unfortunately no, the two videos released are the teaser and the gameplay walkthrough of the jungle.

 

Well, Age of Empire Definitive Edition is rather hype as well.

 

Apparently Warhorse Studios was at E3 and they presented this trailer:


The wait for this game and Cyberpunk 2077 are killing me...

 

Not sure if trolling or serious.
It's not like we never heard that one before
PC gaming is fine and well. There are plenty of quality games out there for PC.

 

Your average AAA game is usually a port, yes. Some good, some bad. But there are still plenty of made for PC games, which are not ports.

 

It is true that PC exclusive titles are few and far between any more at least when it comes to big budget titles. But there's genres that never have translated well to consoles and that includes MMORPG, Real Time and Turn Based Strategy, and simulation driving and flying, and even massive online shooters. These are also the games that do best with keyboard/mouse and/or added peripherals that you just can't get for consoles.

While PC's usually get bad ports, consoles have dumbed down versions of these games. For example Battlefield games have always been 64 player, consoles limited to 32, not to mention maps were frequently smaller. Strategy games are damn near impossible to do on console. It's been tried, just never very successfully. While yes there are MMORPG's on consoles, their limited RAM and video RAM usually preclude them from having massive amounts of players and detail. What I like most about PC games though are the indie titles. The massive amount of quality low budget games that cost pennies that give you satisfaction playing them.

I'm on the PC gaming side of the fence, that doesn't mean consoles are bad. I play games on those frequently too, just with my kids usually. Personally I can't stand gamepads, and I grew up with all the original gaming consoles like Atari 2600 and Intellivision and NES, etc. Just in the same way that you can browse the internet on a "Smart TV" your experience will always be better on a PC.

Bottom line, IMHO, PC gaming will be here forever. If anything it will make a resurgence. PC gaming will be dead after Half-Life 3 is released.

 

Absolutely. My consoles continue to collect dust while I play PC-exclusive strategy games like Civilization VI.

That wouldn't happen to be a world-record-breaking 965M, would it?



PC ports on ultra typically look better than console versions. Whether the graphical difference is worth the hardware price difference is a different question, of course--and a personal one.

 

"That Ryan guy" is good at pulling shenanigans. He also somehow keeps popping up on these forums despite having been banned multiple times. Probably best not to trust what he claims.
