E3 2012 - June 4-7 - General info and discussion thread

[IrishJedi]

Watch dogs was running on pc. Why it looked so good.

I don't care. It was the atmosphere, unique gameplay mechanics and the acting/immersion that sold me. Nice graphics will just be the icing on the cake.

Is watch dogs a next gen game?

 

[ZaCHw117]

And it was played on the PS3

Havent you heard? There is no next gen.

Looks to me like he's playing it on a PS3:

Well, its possible to play a PC game with a console controller.

 

[plasmid303]

I don't think that's a PS3 controller.

 

[Ktjn]

The guy on the gametrailer spike show said it was running on pc.

 

[snappahead]

makes sense for presentation reasons to use a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard.

The Gamespot Stage Demos have been source of info for E3 games past the Big 3 confs and cinematic trailers.
I really like their format.

So far i've seen CoD, GoW, Far Cry 3, NFS, Halo 4, Planetside, dmc.
Planetside seems really and I was pleasantly surprised by how cool dmc looks.
Halo 4, FAr Cry and NFS look neat to but the rest was blah.

I'm guessing you're a Nintendo fan? You seem to love everything they show. Not saying anything if you are. Just an observation.

 

[Shropt]

So the 3DS event showed no more games than what's already been revealed? Seriously?
