Mega Man!

Will have to go back on what I missed.

Co-op 3D Mario game sound little bit awlsome.

X looks awlsome.

A lack of surprises really, although Nintendo tend to reveal stuff at regular intervals now rather than showing it all at E3.

Mario Kart 8 was probably the most impressive visually out of the big 3. Smash Bros. looks too similar to Brawl at the moment, but it's probably not out until Christmas 2014 and they'll likely reveal it bit by bit like they've done in the past.

Wait, what?

So Kinect would always be on? Great time to announce that...

I dunno if it has to always be on but when it is, a vote in every house on who gets chucked out of the room so people can play on it.

MS are berks.

MS are berks.

And I read that if someone it doesn't recognise comes in the room they have to identify themselves. So presumably if that's the case, then it would have to keep a record of names and faces? It all seems a little silly. Not to mention that it's all a side issue from actual games. The conspiracy theorist in me would wonder whether the camera/microphone were ever actually off, even if it said it was.

They're surely going to have to row back from some of this stuff.

It doesn't really make any sense because they say you can play games at a friends house so long as you're signed in to your profile. If that's the case then why would they have it that you're restricted from er....playing games on your profile at home.

It would be extremely hard to sell this to anyone new to console buying, even those with brand loyalties probably think it's not worth jumping through hoops to play a few game that are exlusive...and pay a lot more for the privilege.

Also, given that the PS4 will be subscription based for online play, you would think that means there isn't such a discrepancy as there is now between download times and reliability for online play, so that's another plus point MS would lose out on.

Jeez, it's like Skynet.

Forget MS and their One box. Won't be touching it. That some serious BS on a next level.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yeah, fuck 'em.

Also,

I want it.

That does look pretty great.

That cat upgrade looks amazing
