The Official E3 2014 thread

Free To Play,... it was announced like its a great thing.

Aside from Grim Fandango and Star Wars Battlefront, it's been a pretty bleh show so far.

I even think them offering something free in Forza was a response to people complaining about the nickel and dime nature of that game.

Well, as they said, that's the third free track they've released. The only reason that was an E3 thing was likely a little time filler to remind everyone the game is there, and because that was the biggest complaint, as far as omissions were. They already gave out Road America and Long Beach free.

So the PS Now price range is $3-20? What the hell would anyone pay $20 to RENT?

Those saying the ps tv is 5 inches. It's not a tv lol, it's like an Apple tv you just hook it up to Ethernet and to another tv via hdmi and you can play your ps4 games in another room.

One thing I will say is that the apparent rebranding of PS Vita TV to Playstation TV was a good idea. I'm hoping there will be PS4/TV bundles later this year that don't involve a Vita.

I'm definately getting the ps tv since I have a tv in my bedroom I could hook it up to, that isn't being used.

I can't find where it talks about the PS4 streaming... is this just using the Vita Connect or whatever?

It uses a special version of the vita os. And has remote play

30 day rentals of ps3 games?

It would never happen, but I would give my left nut for a sequel to Chrono Trigger/Cross for the 3DS.

If I had to guess, Sony will focus more on JRPGs during the Tokyo Game Show in September. As someone that originally bought a PlayStation simply because Final Fantasy was on it, it's a bit of a bummer to see them essentially ignore me during most of the FPS-filled presentation.

The PlayStation TV is essentially a Vita without a screen or controls, but it has an Ethernet port. It has the exact same functionality as a normal Vita (apart from the obvious unsupported things), but it also supports Ethernet, HDMI output (Vita has no video out functionality), and controllers.

To note, the Vita TV does support the DualShock 4. That was added in update 3.10.

The streaming also Is available for ps4 games too. And I did read that yea the ps tv will stream ps4 games.

Amiibo = SNOOZEEEE. Smash Bros should be cool though.

Smash Bros is always fun but nothing we don't already know.

This Yoshi game looks amazing. Both visually and Yoshi's Island was absolutely awesome. Man I kind of want a Wii U suddenly lol.

I think it looks cool too. Might actually be good enough to pick up.

 

[Tweak155]

Zelda... better be something good.

 

[Tweak155]

Whoa! Nice upgrade for Zelda.

 

[darkewaffle]

Initial shot of the Zelda world looks tremendous.

 

[Tweak155]

Just said 2015... we all know what that means.

 

[darkewaffle]

I have a deep seated love for Pokemon from being a kid but I wish they'd do something a little different with the IP - I still think a Pokemon MMO would go gangbusters.

 

[purbeast0]

just saw a screenshot of that yoshi game. im digging the art style big time.

 

[Tweak155]

Dang this has been mostly snoozfest.

 

[zerocool84]

So what was this mysterious 3DS game all the sites were talking about?

New Zelda is great but almost nothing was shown which means we are very far away from release. I bet it doesn't release in 2015.
