Episode 103: E3 and the Year of Fours (Right click and save as to download, or hit us up on iTunes or Stitcher).
Our show was long, the news was deep, and it was late, late, late when we crept away to sleep (or to play video games after hours of discussing them). We previewed E3, talking confirmations, rumors, dashed hopes, and machine gun pauldrons. Look at all the GIFs being spawned! Oh, and we’ll get games out of it, too. Here are a few we talked about:
- Halo 5
- Fallout 4
- Doom (4?)
- Uncharted 4
- Mirror’s Edge Catalyst
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Battlecry
- Star Wars: Battlefront
- Hyrule Warriors
- Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate
- Lego Dimensions
- No Man’s Sky
- Bravely Second End Layer
- Until Dawn
- Ratchet and Clank
- Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2
- Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer
- Yoshi’s Woolly World
- Forza 6
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 3
And we talked about the new controllers (boo) and the TB models of new consoles and rumors of Nintendo’s new hardware. Speaking of rumors, there are a lot of games and franchises that aren’t confirmed for E3 (or in some cases, at all) that were mentioned. Here are a few of those:
- Dishonored 2
- Pokémon Z
- Paper Mario 5
- The Legend of Zelda
- Metroid Prime 4
- Gears of War (4?)
- Mass Effect 4
- The Last Guardian
- Red Dead Redemption
- Killzone
You may be getting a hint as to why this episode was so dang long. We also discussed the recent Reddit bans and ideas of censorship, along with Alex’s Indie Game of the Week, Klei Entertainment’s Invisible Inc.
