Is this thing on?
Another E3, another year of conferences where we try to separate the stuff intended for gamers from the stuff intended for the investors. This year saw a couple jaw dropping reveals (Watch_Dogs, I'm looking at you) and some solid first-time game play trailers. (Halo 4, Last of Us... wow.)
Like everybody else, I'm completely wowed by Watch_Dogs, who would have seen a game like this coming? I had almost accepted the kind of gameplay that we've been getting from open world city-set games. Until today. We don't even have a release date and I've already pegged this as my most wanted game for 2013.
Assassins Creed 3's ship combat was something to be seen though! The best pirate game play I've seen yet was ironically not even in a pirate game. I didn't even know I wanted something like this in my Assassins Creed, but they convinced me. I can't wait to jump into the high seas and blow some ships under the water. Dynamic weather, swells and wind? Hell yeah!
The Last of Us blew me away like I was already convinced it would. The trailers and knowing that the team at Naughty Dog were developing it already had my $60 in hand, but the game play trailer was like a sweet topping on an already awesome dessert. I didn't see a release date but I'm clinging to hopes of November. Not that my "games I need to buy this holiday season" list wasn't full enough.
Come on fall 2012, I need you.
EDIT: Whoops, didn't realize forum functionality would actually put it in the forums. My bad guys. >_<
