    A new Xenoblade game would be nice.

    I really hope there wont be a repeat of GTAO with RDR2. It be a shame to see online prioritised over SP like it was in GTA5.

    :confused: Lack single player of DLC maybe, but no way can you say the main game lost out due to focus on multiplayer. Multiplayer wasn't even available at lunch they delayed it for 2 or 3 weeks.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was already announced. Or do you mean just more info on it?

    I won't watch any of em live, but will watch the Easy Allies stream of them watching it later on youtube....so I can get their reactions and takes on events.

    I don't think you're missing anything by not watching it live, there will be uploads on youtube and rebroadcasts so...

    Oh I didn't say I would. Just the ones I would be able to. :) I will watch Nintendo's live if I get home from work in time. It's meant to be only 30 mins and shouldn't have all the crap the other live conferences will have.

    After today's reveal trailer, I'm looking forward to seeing more of Strange Brigade. It might scratch that L4D itch I have, seeing as Valve won't bloody well do it.


    This is right on my radar now. Like yourself, I've been looking for another L4D too, fantastic co-op game.

    Speaking of which, this is definitely the year Valve announce HL3, L4D3 and TF3.

    I really want Sony to start delivering the goods on exclusives because so far they have been nothing but disappointments for me outside of Bloodborne.

    A new Bloodborne will be nice but I want something more than a sequel to last generations worst RPG (no no kuni) and days gone which looks yawn inducing. Give us something out of left field like Gravity Rush 2 was.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,968 ✭✭✭Doge


    Id like to see a few AAA PSVR titles, might be asking a bit much outside of limited vr experiences in GT Sport and Ace Combat though! :p

    I did not know it was announced already, in that case some gameplay and a release date would be nice, although I still need too play the one on Wii u.

    Apparently it's out before XMas. I expect it to be delayed like all the other Xenoblade games, XMas seems too close.

    I hope for a Silent Hill announcement. Don't believe Konami are going to let their IP die a death. They must have something up their sleeves even if it ain't Silent Hills.

    Konami are far more interested in pachinko machines and trading cards than video games these days.
