I have no idea what to expect besides the stuff that usually gets delayed finally getting released. Supposedly Bethesda has something big planned that is not Fallout 4 DLC. I'm not going to get my hopes up for another Elder Scrolls game ... (but that'd be really cool of them).

Looking forward to seeing what new thing From Software is cooking up.

And then I'm sure we'll see near-ready versions of No Man's Sky, Persona 5, Zelda: Legend of Double Release, etc.

ESO actually got just Dark Brotherhood on the 1st of June. They seem to be doing well enough with B2P to justify cranking out new mini expansions every 2-3 months... next three should be Murkmire, Mephala's Web, and Clockwork City.

As for what is coming from Bethesda otherwise... I suspect we'll get a trailer for the next Fallout 4 DLC and maybe an announcement for Doom DLC. Next big Elder Scrolls game is going to be a few years off... wouldn't expect to see anything until late 2017-2018.

They said their big announcement was not Fallout 4 DLC. That doesn't rule out Doom DLC, but I'm thinking they mean a new game. You're right that it won't be Elder Scrolls, but I really wish it was.

Do we NEED an explanation at all? It's a fighting game. It doesn't have to make sense. If Krillin is viable in a DBZ game, or anyone can really fight the Hulk in a Marvel/Capcom fighting game, it shouldn't matter if everyone can fight Superman.

It's already got the PC community in a tizzy... basically because of what happened with FO4 regarding mods (i.e. people who didn't own mods putting them up and stealing credit). Some mod makers have decided to just take their projects down in preparation of it, because it's better than letting someone else get the credit for their work.

Basically, until Bethesda can keep the thieves out of the mod scene on console, a lot of mod makers just don't want to deal with the console side of things.

I haven't double-dipped with all these upper console re-releases, but I must with this. I will get it right when it comes out. I cannot fucking wait. I will put myself on forcible no-Skyrim for the next few months just to make it all the more special.

I like PS4 exclusives. It gives the devs the chance to play to the console's strength. I enjoy PC gaming, but I have also always liked my PlayStations. If this convinces any of you to give it a whirl, I highly recommend anything by Naughty Dog that they published exclusively for PlayStation. Great story games with fun gameplay and interesting puzzles.[DOUBLEPOST=1465910502,1465910263][/DOUBLEPOST]That Spider-Man game really showcases his agility, which was always his coolest superpower in my opinion.

Still bummed that Nintendo's reaction to doing a female main character essentially boiled down to...

- "We don't want a male Zelda." She doesn't have to be male, you nimrods. Zelda and Link don't always hook up in the end... they were brother and sister in Zelda 3!
- "If Zelda is the main character, what are we going to do with Link?"

Gee... I don't know... how about having Link rule the kingdom instead and he's being held hostage by Gannondorf? Or hey, let's switch things up even more: maybe Link is the villain. Link's Courage could have been corrupted into recklessness and now he's unleashed some ancient evil while seeking a new challenge, so now it's up to Zelda to use her magic to try and save the day while Gannondorf (who is using his Power justly for once) and his army of Garudo warriors to hold the line until she can defeat the evil. It literally took me 5 minutes to think of that and I STILL think I put more effort into it than Nintendo did.

It's alright to follow an iconic formula, Nintendo, but don't treat us like idiots. Just say "that's not the story we want to tell", not "there is no way to tell that story".

This is where I'm at. Between the new jumping, gathering, hunting, weather stuff, open world ... it's like The Legend of Zelda: Fallout New Vegas Survival Mode. Which would be fine, except a ton of these things are new concepts for Nintendo and I feel like they've bitten off more than they can chew.

I think you're right, especially with the premise that this time Link is piecing together what terrible thing happened to Hyrule, exploring the aftermath and ruins.


I will probably buy this for Wii U because at this point I can't see myself buying the next Nintendo home console and maintaining self-respect. My wife and I bought the Wii U, now and then play a Nintendo game we wanted to play, and then the Wii U goes months collecting dust until the next Wii U game we want to play comes out. Compare this to the 3DS, PS4, or even the friggin PS3, each getting year-round use because they have games we keep going back to, or new games we want to play coming out regularly. Unless the NX is a hybrid console/handheld as has been rumored, I'm not sure I'd be buying it.

They actually didn't start development on DETROIT until long after KARA become a wide success... they were still working on Beyond: Two Souls at the time, as well as doing support for Heavy Rain.

I will admit that I'm put off a bit by the fact that the geography doesn't match reality. Best I can tell, the rooftop scene takes place somewhere between Campus Martius Park and Grand Circus Park, but the buildings there don't quite match up as depicted. I guess there must have been a lot of renewed construction between now and when the action takes place.
