Xbox One? Man, I Saw That

No Killer instinct?

Hey, remember when all the good (and expensive) cameras got swiped at E3... I think it started then...

I'm excited about knack too.Looks like an old school PS2 era platformer.

Forza looking amazing, really hope Microsoft follows through on its claim to support pc.

But its not the only game that is 1080p 60 is the point. And even then that locked 60 is due to the fact is doesn't need anti aliasing and they are not using dynamic lighting. But several games across both platforms are 1080p and 60 as a base frame rate a small drop in frame rate isn't the end of the world. And everything outside of BF4 on PS4 is 1080p and at least locked 30. I'd rather these games not worry about having to be 60FPS and shoot for better visuals. I'd have taken BF4 at 1080p and 30 to be honest. I never had a problem with BF3 on 360 being 30FPS nor Halo or any shooter not called Call of Duty. 30FPS is only a problem when the controller refresh rate isn't lined up with screen refresh I.E. Killzone 2.

Dead Rising looks extra boring.

These all look like PC games with average graphics.

Video games are dead. Tabletop RPGs are where it's at now.

Hitman 2 or Blood Money had an elephant gun.

dead rising looks pretty nice, cool seeing so much on screen like that

@chiablo: Yeah, I kept thinking that too. I just hope the PC ports this next gen aren't as spotty as they've been in the past.

it doesn´t look that bad.. hopefully people would get out of the hyperbole boat and realize the xbone is not that bad after all.

I NEED that dead rising

Man I'm just not interested in any launch games for either console. That sucks.

Nope. It happened very recently, and only on live stream archives (I think). Check out the difference between Volgarr the Viking part 2 and part 3. Part 2 is fine, but part 3 looks just like this video in color range.

Playing Dead Rising as a singleplayer game blows my mind. What a waste of potentially hilarious situations.

In Battlefield, can you just tilt your head to lean out of cover?

LOOK AT THESE NERDS

I'm just not sold on Ryse, not least of which because I'm colorblind. You'd think with the prevalence of colorblindness in men that SOMEONE on the team would say "no, that's not red enough. make it REDDER! And never use both yellow and green."

Yep.

Dead Rising footage looks extremely grey and desaturated, like watching it through a fog or something.

(so does Ryse and BF4 all kinda washed out)

You know guys, it's never too late to jump a sinking ship while you can.

#BanderasPS4

A lot of this looks really underwhelming... was hoping for something more.

There were elephant guns in the first Borderlands, at least. I used one for a long time because it just murdered enemies in one hit.

Seeing Ryse in action, for some reason, made me way more excited for Dark Souls II on PC. It looked really pretty...

I remember really wanting to like Panzer Dragoon Orta, and it looked super good for the time (hasn't aged as well as I thought it would) but it just never grabbed me. Not terribly excited by a spiritual successor to that.

It's annoying isn't it, that developers are cost-cutting with this far superior hardware :/

Dead Rising 3 looks alright, Ryse like it'll be quite pretty but get old fast, and Forza like the usual unfortunate first gen next-gen car collectathon game, you know, where things look better but there's less things.

Positively surprised, or something, that the Kinect lean in BF4 isn't entirely worthless. Hardly convinces me of the value of Kinect though, neither does UI stuff, particularly since Microsoft is yet to commit to voice commands and such working here whenever it's launched.

Maybe it'll all eventually add up to a point where you're content with the investment. Xbox Fitness would add +1, but I don't know if that'll be a thing here either, or whether or not it'll be free for a year like in the 10 countries I hear it's initially available in.

I've always preferred the announced lineup for XO, but their continued negligence of my region is supremely suppressing my willingness to support Microsoft. I mean, it's out in days, but for us it's still "2014".

Brad playing game confirmed (with all hesitance intact).

Gerstmann taking that press sneak fuck bribe money to make XBO look worse once again.. well played Adam Boyes..

I can almost guarantee you they'll give you the option to put the button prompts back in.

You can tell it's a launch lineup when the game I'm most excited about this month is Super Mario 3D World.

fuck, why cant Forza come out for PC? i really want to play it. I think its about time forza got a pc release.

Borderlands 1 is the only game i've played with an elephant gun. Coincedentally, the best gun i've ever used in a video-game.

Why do developers hate bad-ass hunting rifles?

Thought everything looked surprisingly good. I actually liked the look of dead rising, and really liked the number of zombies and how the dismembered ones still crawled after you. Car racing games look good as always and BF4 looked good. I was somewhat suprised by RYSE, I thought it looked good, the change away from the button prompts was the right idea. The idea of giving voice commands to my army is really appealing to me for some reason, I hope they really embrace that.

None of this is really knocking my socks off. Looks too much like current consoles.

Naaaaah. They are just getting paid that colourblind agenda money.

All looks a bit meh.

Arcanum and Borderlands had elephant guns, that i remember straight away. Big bore sniper rifles without a scope.

You act like Super Mario 3D World doesn't stand a chance of being an actual good Mario game. I think that game looks really rad from all of the preview coverage.

Yeah, that was weird to see, I thought they had started to get that kind of stuff right early this gen, possibly even late PS2 era (I seem to recall Project Snowblind and Black on the PS2 having pretty good looking reflections without those kinds of issues, and Timeshift on PS3/360 certainly did a great job with rain effects, wet asphalt and that kind of stuff back in 2007).

I think Dead Rising remains the only launch exclusive on either system that interests me much. But the new setting still turns me off some. It's so dull compared to the past games. I always found the previous games interesting, not just for the humor, but also the juxtaposition of the dark, zombie infestation with the bright, carnivalesque environments. This new one seems more of a typical post-apocalyptic zombie setting than the previous.

They complained a lot about their TV being too dark, I wonder if they instead of turning up the brightness on the TV, turned up the brightness or gamma on the thing that sends to the TV, so that we also get the now way too bright stuff?

Oh, wow, weird. I hadn't even noticed that... What's interesting is that it doesn't seem to be a problem with the live "on the couch" stuff (at least from a super quick glance at a couple of UPFs) only the game capture...

It's kinda funny that it did end up being the xbox 720.

It's pretty damning that Brad described Ryse combat as shallower than Batman. I didn't know you could dumb down that system any more.

I appreciate the lack of hyperbole from the Giant Bomb team most of the time, but the jaded delivery of this video is so disheartening. Brad sounds like he's describing flat packed furniture and his memory of the finer aliasing details in BF4 is astounding for someone who usually can't reliably see a "PUSH THIS BUTTON" prompt in a game.

Do you guys even like gaming any more, if it isn't either something super niche or packed full of FMV?!

I came into this feeling skeptical, and left feeling totally apathetic.

PS. Jeff totally stabbed that Chinese guy.

Yeah it's a bit of a bummer. He almost seemed reluctant to give Ryse any sort of props, despite the fact that it has been shit on unfairly IMHO.

Disappointed there was no Killer Instinct. Why show Battlefield? They showed off Crimson Dragon for like 30 seconds and that's one of the games I'm most hyped for.

But hey opinions right? All I know is I'm super stoked and there's actually a lot of stuff I want to play at launch for this thing. Combine that with Kinect seemingly working much better, and the interface looking pretty sweet and it combines into a pretty awesome package (in theory anyways).
