    Didn't see anyone talking about this, so I thought I'd make a thread if anyone else is following it.

    Haven't seen a livestream of it, so I've been following @eurogamer on Twitter (which is handy because it means I can just cut and past.

    So far they've mentioned Fables Legends, "It's an online world of Albion, says little Phil. Also uses SmartGlass that lets you play as the villain and the hero" There's a link on Eurogamer that I'm sure will fill up with info as they get it: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-08-20-lionhead-announces-fable-legends-for-xbox-one 4 player co-op announced for ti so far.

    Also "Exclusive content for Xbox One gamers before and after the release of The Division, big Phil announces"

    "Ubisoft's Fighter Within confirmed. This Kinect game was leaked yesterday."

    "Little Phil announces Mojang's Cobalt will come to Xbox 360 and Xbox One"

    "IW announces new game mode for COD Ghosts called Blitz. Video showing it now playing"

    "Big Phil back on stage. Exclusive COD Ghosts premium Xbox One bundle for Europe announced"

    "IW confirms dedicated servers for COD Ghosts powered by Xbox Live cloud. Told you!"

    "Little Phil announces Peggle 2 and Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare coming to Xbox first"

    "Euro folks get FIFA 14 free on Xbox one if they per order. More bundles coming in the future,"

    "Matt Bilbey from EA Sports on stage to talk FIFA. Ultimate Team Legends announced, only on Xbox. Best players of all time in gold packs"

    And that's about all she wrote. The Sony and EA events are being broadcast. EA is at 3pm GMT and Sony is at 5pm.

    I changed the title so that all the conferences can go here (sure they may as well). I think I've got the right start times, so let me know if they're wrong.

    aw where is the fast forward button!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Just put it on mute. You get all the same info and don't have to listen to the idiots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Dragon Age Inquisition sounds like it could be pretty cool, but I felt the same about Dragon Age 2 before that was released. Time will tell, I guess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,958 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Buffer!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭EGriff


    None of the streams posted are working for me. I just get a lil pic of a document with a sad face and "unable to resolve the server's DNS address".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Where are you watching from?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭EGriff


    I tried all the links posted in the thread: gametrailers, gamesradar, the 2 EA links. All I want to see is BF4.

    Could be a problem at my end but neither chrome or IE work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Strange. But at least it'll be up on youtube a few minutes after it's streamed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    I'm probably the only person who will think this, but Titanfall looks a bit pants.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Do Bros even watch Conferences or E3s? I though they think those are for nerds and they will just buy next fifa with bigger number in the end. So why the feck do we get so much of FIFA on conferences?! :pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    The only place I was able to get working is on twitch, but it is shuttering a lot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,585 ✭✭✭DeSelby83

    Just go to twitch and go to battlefield 4 game or http://www.twitch.tv/gamescom_2013


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭EGriff


    Twitch is working for me too but so laggy its unwatchable. I'll wait till it hits youtube.

    Hopefully the Sony conference has better streaming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    So.... he said that BF4 will launch october 31st and next gen after... So no way ps4 is coming out in rumoured october. :(

    I quite loved BF3, but somehow I am pretty meh about BF4... I am quite sick of BF3 at this stage and it looks like more of the same. 99% I will still get it as all my friends will, but I am really not as excited as I used to be for BF3...

    Pursume thats it ?

    I think you're underestimating the wide audience that FIFA and football have. It's certainly a must-buy for me most years and I'm sure that whatever new console I do get, I'll be getting a copy of FIFA to go with it.

    Honestly, I prefered (and still do prefer) Bad Company 2 to Battlefield 3. On too many maps in BF3 it felt that they were going for CoD's close quarter hectic battles rather than playing up to the strengths of the Battlefield series.

    Well get an xbox one then, because you get Fifa free with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    It'll still be cheaper to buy a PS4 and a copy of FIFA though and I'm still very much undecided on which console to go for.

    True.

    Because they're for investors who love hearing about the franchises that are going to make millions of ****ing dollars :)

    I'm still of two minds about Titanfall. I still think it looks fairly boring stylistically and the focus on MP is disappointing to me personally but I still can't help wanting to play it, if only as a throwback to my childhood watching the Battletech cartoon and later loving the utter crap out of Mechwarrior and Heavy Gear later.

    Reminds me of the brink concept...

    I still think Brink was a good game hidden behind an crap engine and utterly broken network code.

    MechAssault 2 on the original Xbox had a similar kind of concept to Titanfall and was brilliant, it's just that so few people played it online at the time. They even had the persistent world in which you fought for control of certain areas with your clan.

    I liked idea of it, they had a great setting and backstory for it. Its a shame they did so much stupid stuff. I would love to see brink 2 with more story and ironed out mistakes.

    well it depends
    do you play online multiplayer?

    in my case, i have an xbox 360, which my xboxlive is covered until october next year, so basicly i could buy the xboxone with fifa 14 for free which would only cost me 500e
    were as for the ps4 i would need to buy the ps4+fifa14+ Ps+
    so in my case the xbox one would be the better value

    all depends really though on whether you like fifa, or if you already have an online suscription paid for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Begin shortly! Go on!!!

    If ps4 will be launched in December, then I will burst a testicle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji

    Ok Sony, when you're showing a video on the screen just show the damn feed straight from the screen.

    I think I already own everything Rockstar have so getting 75% off another one of their game is not that great.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple


    Borderlands 2 for the Vita will be having some of that !!!!!!
