On one hand I feel like I'm being too cynical. On the other I feel like I've just filled out my card with a bunch of free spaces.

Well considering Saints Row 4 was announced and will almost certainly be there, as well as Watch Dogs, and Battlefield, there's definitely some freebies.

Although I don't think EA is capable of not being the Riddler of the gaming industry lol.



    Microsoft is buying out publishers to not mention the PS4 versions of multi-platform titles, so you can assume if the presenter does not say "EXCLUSIVE TO XBOX ONE", that it will also be on PS4.

    More in depth DRM info at Gamescom. There is no rental strategy, they're trying to just sweep it under the rug and hope people don't remember.

    Cloud power was designed as DRM. It was Microsoft's idea, and they approached other publishers. EA and Ubisoft support, Activision slightly less so.

    DRM plans are worse than what they have said.

    Mirror's Edge 2 at MS conference.

    Prince of Persia (reboot?) at MS conference.

    Secret Phil Spencer game = World of Tanks. It is said that you still need Gold to play F2P games?

    Paywall for Xbox One.

    Dead Rising 3 as Xbox One exclusive. Exclusive DLC for another Capcom game.

    No paywall for PS4, but it's unconfirmed.

    Sony is very tight on their DRM policies, so no DRM info.

^ That was leaked by a very trustworthy source on Neogaf

Didn't know about a new Battlefield. Only put the other two on there because I was kinda dry on ideas. They're actually among the couple things that I expect will be not bad about this E3, and as such have no place on this mother-in-law themed card.


Still feels full of free spaces, though.

Also made one of these.

Wasn't the first one a big EA title? Thought it was pretty good though.

watch dogs really reminds me of that tv show person of interest

I swear to god if Mirror's Edge 2 is Xbone exclusive I'm going to kill a baby

thisssssssssss

How long are the conferences usually? An hour?

Wait, forgot the next Assassins Creed was already announced. Have to replace another spot on my card - maybe with something about how much time they're gonna spend talking about mobile/phone gaming, because the overlords of the EA/Microsoft/Sony money pits heard of Angry Birds one day.

Might be a PC port, though I'm afraid if there is, since the last one was an EA title, it's gonna be stuck on Origin.

How long are the conferences usually? An hour?
About two hours, longest is two and a half I think. The schedule's on the Gamespot site.
