Not yet, and I’m bummed about that. I keep hearing it’s super difficult, which I’m not sure is a turn on or a turn off? Depends on how it’s handled, I suppose. Read more

It feels like a transition year, to be honest? New hardware from both companies, but nothing to demonstrate how that hardware is going to change our gaming lives (or not!). There were plenty of promising games at the show, though! I mean, we’ve already had a wonderful 2016, in terms of quality games. You could stop… Read more

We use Slack to chat with one another as a group; Stephen, Jason and I talked with one another via text, since data connections can be flaky at conventions like E3. Depending on when our first appointment was, we would head over to the show as a group or one-by-one. This year, we actually stayed in an AirBnB, which… Read more

I want those games to be better than they currently are; it’s high-profile VR games that will encourage the average person to buy one. There are loads of interesting independent developers playing around in VR, but are any of them as big as Resident Evil? Nope. That’s why I’m so disappointed in Resident Evil’s take on… Read more

I don’t think it was there? If it was, I missed it! Read more

They’re definitely keeping those bits under wraps right now, and it might account for why the game is taking so long; building your first open world game is no small feat, especially filling it up with content. Read more

We only had three people actually attending E3, so while our resources were limited, it felt like we played all of the major games at the show. Was there something we missed, or something you’re curious about? We’re only beginning to roll out our E3 coverage now, there will be lots of interviews and impressions in the… Read more

I should have known how excited I’d be for Gravity Rush 2, but that game blew me away at E3. Was it a good Vita game? Sure, but that aesthetic POPS on the big screen. I was mesmerized for a full 15 minutes, and it helped that the game plays pretty well, too! Read more

Yep! Read more

Jeff Gerstmann doesn’t like Red Dead Redemption, so. Read more

Dang, sorry. Read more

I’m probably gonna hit up the range. I still can’t drive for shit. :( Read more

Golf is awesome. An excuse to day drink, smoke cigars, and hit things with large metal sticks? Read more

This is correct. One problem I ran into a few times was rubble from my destruction actually falling on top of the ball and obscuring my view. Read more

I could see it still being fun as a pass-around-the-controller game with buddies over beers. Read more

Lemme be clear: I don’t think this represents the fighting game community at all. It’s a wildly diverse group of people, as is the case with any community. The difference with the FGC—and all competitive esports—is that things happen in the spotlight, so you’re more likely to see awful things happen. But myself (and… Read more

My heart wouldn’t be able to take that. Read more

The screen shots don’t look promising. Read more

...me too. Read more
