2013 VGX discussion thread.

I agree. Feels like we may get new episodes spaced very far apart from each other now.:(

Yup. Which isn't good. It's hard to maintain your interest over that long a period of time. I was fortunate to play all the Walking Dead episodes back to back (because I was late to the party). I think that really enhanced my enjoyment, because the story and characters were fresh in my mind. If there were months between each episode, I don't know if I would've been so hooked by it.

I guess I'm the only one that really doesn't find the telltale way of doing games appealing, the walking dead bored me to death. I'm glad others like it though, it'll be interesting to see what they can do with game of thrones although I'd much rather have an open world action type of game for that series than a point and click.
 
I watched about two minutes of the stream, shuddered, and turned it off. It was the part where the rappers were making "jokes" and then doing "music from GTA 5" ... horrible.

I just watched the trailers they have up on the dashboard. Thoughts:

I liked No Man's Sky.
I'd play a next-gen TR, but not for $60.
I think Telltale is spreading themselves too thin. Still, I'm interested in seeing what they come up with.
i prefer telltale spreading themselves thin than making another brutal legend.

No, plenty of guys slag them off, saying there's no gameplay, they aren't real games, etc. I hear that all the time.
 
I don't like playing the waiting game with Tell Tale. I am still waiting for Ep2 of The Wolf Among Us after Ep1, which was pretty short.

Same here. I feel like I'm going to have to replay the first episode to remind myself what happened, prior to playing the new one.

If a game is going to be episodic, I wish the episodes would be weekly or at least monthly. Not longer than that.

I was thinking the same thing. I am going to have to replay the first episode before the 2nd comes out. Weekly, Bi-Weekly or monthly releases is fine, but more than a month is too much.
 
Was that a slight jab at the One with Dying Light?
"This is running 1080p on ps4!" not exact quote

This takes a dump all over Dead Rising 3

Really ? that game had a huge downgrade from the E3 video's ...horrible popup/clipping/Screen tearing ..I was really disappointed ..Ill take 720p with all that s*** removed any day !!!!!!
 
Worthy Highlights
  • News about Tales from the Borderlands and Game of Thrones from Telltale Games
  • Tomb Raider Definitive Version for next gen (if you haven’t played it on current gen yet)
  • Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze demo
  • Broken Age demo
  • Dying Light demo
  • Various info about Thief (pre-show info and story video)
  • No Man’s Sky video and Q&A (the best thing about VGX IMO)
  • Some info about Titanfall Ogre and Stryder mechs


Skippable Lowlights
  • Endless bad jokes and ad-libbing
  • Music bits
  • Comedy bits
  • Awards
  • Many videos showing nothing worthy. Zero info or blatant PR (such as The Division’s video)
  • Anything else gaming related I didn’t list in the Highlights section

WOW you people are spoiled.. Its was a nice show to watch. Saw some things I liked. Things looking forward to, some meh things, new things and some must have things. I think Some of you need to take a step back from everything gaming for a while. Anything gaming related seems to be hitting everyone's bitch and complain button. I dont think I can remember a awards show,E3 or any other gaming event where people mainly focus on the negatives and ignore the positives. Sad really.
 
lol @ TR: Definitive Edition.

It better be @1080p 60FPS and match the PC version to have that title.

Safe to say that anytime a game says it's the Ultimate Edition or Definitive Edition it means for console comparisons only. PC is on another level.

Though if the publisher is honest, they'd say it's the Second Best Edition. lol

I liked one rap song. The rock song and the instrumental. Heres the fun part. I was play NBA 2k14 while watching in snap window. So not only was it free but also didnt cost me my time. So,No reason to bitch about having that 5 minutes back. Should of watched it on your Xone

So did I, Snap is a great thing. I was playing the campaign of BF4 while watching..
 
Call me crazy, but the best game I saw on VGX was No Man's Sky. Even better, the dev answering questions truly seemed like a genuine gamer and not a stuffy PR filled guy, or one of those well known arrogant indie assheads.

The big concern is that the game looked great. And it sounded great on paper. But the game is being made by only four people?!?! Sounds impossible.

I think Broken Age actually looked really interesting? Did they say which consoles/platforms that one is coming to?

Even in huge studios, many say that only a few are allowed to give their input into the game. Hello Games is small but they are comprised of super skilled veterans from Criterion Games, so give them all those money they got from Joe Danger series to outsource workforce-reliant tasks and it's quite possible. Still it looks fantastic. Just fantastic.
 
No Man's Sky, The Division, and Quantum Break all look good, especially No Man's Sky. And with the awesome games starting to pile up on the Wii U including the new Donkey Kong, I'll have to break down and get one eventually.
