Ubi was always smoke and mirrors, though there is some ray of hope in Division because
its made by Massive.

Edit:

Wait there is more,

Ubisoft Expects Rainbow Six Siege to Sell More Than Far Cry 4; No New IPs Coming.

No new IPs could mean a couple of things.

At E3 watchDogs2 or BGE2 Or maybe Prince of Persia revival.
Wdogs2, Division= 2016
Farcry5=2017

This new character in AC might as well be Batman at this point. The way he fights and then grappels to high locations as well as the Detective Vision you may as well have the commissioner Gordon in it.

     

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

Assassin theft Order: Gangs of Unity

It looks like bad Bollywood movie.
Combat changed, still clunky as anything, cheesy actions like removing hat and wearing hoodie for stealth, same highlight kill, and scan the whole area to highlight enemies behind walls.

Female heroine playable is Iggi from order, also an indian guy like order’s Laxmi, other details seem straight outta Unity only re skinned. Lead hero is Douchey.

Carriage GTA scene is ON, hijack and chase and fight on them, was only cool thing.

Still they are changing for different if not better, and i will dig it if they can somehow pulloff good story based on that timeperiod.

Glad they have showed it now and i hope it won’t be revealed/demoed on Sony conference.
Not worthy.

In other news, Division is now 2016 story.

Finally saw the footage. Pretty meh, time period is the thing I’m most interested about, the rest doesn’t seem much different. Bought…

But it’s Batman in a Victorian Age, so that’s cool (oh wait, it exists already Smile )

But at this point, everybody is copying everybody, these semi open-world games are starting to feel all the same

Conference starts, montage.
Reggie , look we have great games lineup and more to come,
Starfox, 2015 fall, later it will delay.
Hey look we have Starfox amiibos, and here XYZ amiibo.
Stupid Kart DLCs.
Iwata comes and introduces Devils Turd which will look worse again, but he will hype it anyway, and later will sell less than Bayo2.
FatalFrame WiiU will get some footage as Ninty has not much to show.
Reggie will come again and hype Mariomaker as Minecraft and only real fall title.
Some unannounced First half 2016 games.
Hopefully Metroid and FXzero.

Ninty fans will loose themselves and will call it best conference.

Fin.

Smile


Edit:

Ubisoft dates E3 2015 press conference,

Same host, same cheeseball hosting, people will get carried away by her glib performance.

Scripted Demos , by and large same games with different skin.
Some cool indie(s).
And here is the surprise, BGE2 lives and it has parkour too, with towers to scan and open areas.

Fin


Bethesda

DooM , yeah it has gore and fatalities.
Multiplayer this year.
And here Fallout4 demo.
Dishonored HD remake remaster this year.
CG trailer , but actual demo later as Arkane is not yet prepared to show.

Fin


EA

Sports
Starwars Dice
Starwars Visceral
Masseffect
Maybe new Bioware RPG
Sports

Fin

There are worse games they could have copied from Tongue To be fair though, eagle vision has been with assassin’s creed before the first batman came out.

Guerrilla game new IP, Crackdown, Santamonica SCEA, and random killer Indies.

Sony’s fall this year will be bare. They already released their big guns like The Order and Bloodborne, and they will release Until Dawn sometime in August most probably. Microsoft’s on the other hand looks strong with a new Forza, Halo 5 and the new TR. When is Quantum Break releasing?

This came up today,

Sony has ‘no concerns’ about PS4’s Christmas line-up.

And they are happy about pushing No Man’s Sky as AAA title and thinking to make retail version too. As NMS is true nextgen and next big thing from the looks of it, i would love to have this fall.
Ratchet already delayed to first quarter 2016, joining up with SFV and UC4.
Maybe Sony is banking on 3rd party heavy hitters, which sell on PS4 more than any other platform anyway to keep the PS4 sales momentum going.

On other hand,

Microsoft promises ‘the greatest games lineup in Xbox history’ for E3.

QuantumBreak is 2016 release.

I forgot about Persona 5. That’s coming out this year right? It is not a console seller with a niche audience, but it is still an amazing series nevertheless.

Yeah if you look at it, its basically lose lose situation anyway. Sony was topped by M$ this month in hardware sales,
New IPs AAA highly acclaimed Bloodborne didn’t put a dent (not even in top 10), i think Sony new Creative IP portfolio in future will do the same, Persona5 will also wont help much.
Unless ofcourse some really mainstream titles UC4 or Tlou are released, it will always be pricing and other factors like third party marketing rights(Destiny), that could help.
Bottomline, Sony puts money on hardcore/niche gamer centric IPs not money making.

Will be interesting to see how it will play out down the line.
M$ sure is in redeeming position but closing 10 million gap is gonna be a tall order.

I suspect at the end of these consoles life cycles, they’ll probably be around the same in terms of sales figures.

That’s a crow I would gladly eat Smile  but promises of tons of new IPs and amazing is something that Sony and Microsoft in the days prior to E3

Maybe in US and UK is possible. Worlwide? PS4 will lead by a lot.

About this year I think it may be time for a PS4 price drop if they don’t want to lose some of the advantage to the Xbone in US.
