E3 2013: Watch as Microsoft takes a right on the Nascar track.

I'll try to update this post throughout the day with relevant information. But for now, I present you;


STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3







Microsoft highlights:


- Read the "Xbox One" thread for system specifications and DRM bullcrap.

- The 'Xbox One' will be available in Novemberish, for a price of $500.

- Xbox Live subscribers will now receive two free games per month. Make of that as you will.

- Exclusive games include Ryse, Titanfall, Forza 5, Dead Rising 3, Quantum Break, and Halo.

- Trailers for MGS V, Battlefield 4, Dark Souls 2, and Witcher 3 (all multi-platform games)



Sony highlights:

- No DRM. No having to connect to the internet every 24 hours. $400 price tag. Console war = won.

- GTA V PS3 bundle.

- Even more streaming options for movies and TV.

- Lots of indi games.

- The Order 1866. New IP, looks like a pretty unique title with a steampunk setting.

- Infamous: Second Son. Dialog seems fluid and natural, though I have never played any prior games in the franchise.

- Final Fantasy XV

- Kingdom Hearts 3.

- Destiny gameplay. Bungie, you're doing good partnering up with Sony.



Nintendo highlights:
*Note, I wasn't able to watch the whole stream. I'm probably missing a ton of stuff.

- Super Smash Brothers for the Wii U and 3DS. Looks like the same engine from Brawl (final smashes?). Also, a new challenger approaches! *cue 8bit theme*

- New open-world title by the people who made Xenoblade. Looks like Monster Hunter with transformable mechas.

- Thrid party support is dwindling. No surprise there.

- Bayonetta 2.

- Wind Waker HD & a sequel to Link to the Past.

- New Mario game. Surprise?





Third party:


EA:
- Star Wars Battlefront 3, brought to you by the fine folks at DICE and EA. Will use the Frostbite 3(?) engine.

- Need for Speed Rivals, also using the Frostbite engine.

- Mirrors Edge 2. Didn't see that one coming.


Ubisoft:
- Rocksmith. Assasin's Creed. Rabbids. The usual.

- Trailer for Splinter Cell: Blacklist. No Michael Ironside = no Sam Fisher.

- "Tom Clany's The Divide". Open world RPG set in the near-future, not much revealed.

- The Crew. Another open world game, this time with cars. Apparently you can explore every mile of the United States (the world map is most likely not 1:1 scale). Edit: Confirmed for always-online DRM.

- Watch Dogs trailer. More-or-less the same kind of deal we had last year. Hope they show more gameplay.

Title of this thread = Win.

I'm personally excited for Nintendo's showcase of Pokemon X and Y. :3

I wonder what the SSB announcement will entail. I'd like to see how the 3DS/Wii U functionality will work.

Well, Sony just won everything. Even made me forget about Nintendo tomorrow.

Warning- Microsoft getting curb-stomped by a titan. (Blood, violence, whatever.)

Sorry, this was too good to pass up. Sony is absolutely destroying Microsoft right now.
