People don't pay hundreds just to install steam.

This. I also barely ever pay full price for any of my games on there.

^^ I usually wait until sales to buy games. Especially since most happen around when I get some cash.

Same. 100% of my games from steam were 50% or more off...I still have about two dozen to play through but I'm stuck on runescape again D:

Actually I was trying to point out that the DRM is similar, but yeah, Steam is cheaper.

£429 in the UK, no way in hell am I paying that for a console.

So, Microsoft spent the entire conference showing off multi-platform games and trying to hide the fact that their only decent looking games are also appearing on the Xbox 360.

WOW.

I love you, Sony.

Also, this topic is now an E3 discussion topic.

Aragorn Ix · **Posted:** June 10th, 2013, 9:17 pm

Game. Over. Microsoft.

Tanksandguns · **Posted:** June 10th, 2013, 9:23 pm

GG Microsoft.

Omegaman · **Posted:** June 11th, 2013, 12:48 am

Microsoft HAS to drop their used game policy now that Sony said they won't be doing it. Otherwise, they're going to suffer big time.

GoT Spoilers, but with an edit.

I was lollling at the fact that 4 of my facebook friends were posting about this, and every one of them was an RVer.

Mogo · **Posted:** June 11th, 2013, 12:22 pm

That video cracked me up. Best response to a console release ever.

Pretty awesome! I'd say they're a close second to Sony for this year's E3, or maybe even tied for first. But it was also also pretty predictable. To be honest, I wish Nintendo could have just done a regular E3 conference. >.< These "Nintendo Directs" are starting to feel kinda dry. Smash Bros could have been given a much better presentation.

Good thing they made a more in-depth video of Smash Bros!:

I love that they're bringing in the Wii Fit Trainer as a fighter. :laugh:

She actually looks pretty damn tough. Kinda reminds me of Zero Suit Samus, or Sheik.

My body is ready. Make it happen.

Anyway, apparently FFXV and KH3 are both going to be on Xbox One. I guess it's not that odd. KH loves to jump around platforms and FFXIII was on 360.

Either way my decision is made. I'm going to try to reserve a PS4 Thursday when I get paid.

Omegaman · **Posted:** June 11th, 2013, 8:37 pm

Megaman in the next SSB? Cool. But i woulda loved to see them add the X6 version of Zero.

Mogo · **Posted:** June 12th, 2013, 12:14 am

Just watched the FFXV gameplay video. Is it just me, it did it seem to lack final fantasy gameplay..?

They said a couple years ago it would use Kingdom Hearts style gameplay.

If it's not going to use Final Fantasy style gameplay, why are they calling in Final Fantasy. It probably doesn't even slow you to summon again, just the Shiva is the name of the thing you ride all day long. (Oh no i didn't)
