Todd has been a huge fan of the Shenmue series since the beginning, so you would think that the news that Shenmue 3 is being developed would thrill him. But the way that Sony is using crowd-sourcing instead of directly supporting the game really rubs him the wrong way.
2014 was the year that Ubisoft told us female characters are too hard to animate and E3 was overwhelmed with stubbly white guy syndrome. Fortunately, 2015 saw a shift in attitudes, as E3 2015 let female protagonists take centre stage.
With the year almost half over, Todd picks the top five games that have tickled his fancy so far. Will these powerhouses be able to hold onto their slots through the end of the year, or will some of the games announced at E3 arrive to usurp them?
As the dust settles on E3 2015, Chella looks to select her best bits, worst bits and huh!? bits.
Todd runs down the major press conferences expected from the E3 Expo this week, and what we hope to learn from each one of them in what promises to be an exciting show.
This week, the world got a new Fallout announcement. With E3 coming up, it wasn’t really a surprise, especially considering Bethesda is hosting its first stand alone press conference at the show. The Fallout 4 teaser trailer looks incredible, but I probably won’t play the game. I have this problem with Fallout.
Todd gets deep into The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt this week, but how does he respond when he hears people comparing it to perennial favorite Skyrim? Does he really think it could rise to that level?
It’s less than a month to go until E3 2015 kicks off. It’s been a slow year for me, so I’m hoping for some mega announcements with release dates for this year. So without further ado, here are the E3 2015 games I want to see.
This week Todd revs up to play Project Cars. But despite gorgeous graphics, the likes of which have rarely graced a racing game, the poor control scheme has him literally spinning his wheels in frustration and wrecking those beautiful vehicles.
Chella needs a distraction from the result of the UK election and she’s turning to games. She’s created a list of the best games for escapism to a happy place, when real life gets too serious.
