Everything important that has been announced at E3 so far

So day 0 of E3 is done and dusted and while the team crash and burn from exhaustion over in LA we are still working away to ensure you get the very best news from E3 2015.

We posted throughout the night and covered each of the conferences and it is more than likely that you missed some of the articles that were posted. But fear not we are here to help so here is the definitive list of E3 announcements that have been made so far.

Bethesda

Bethesda started the events with their very first E3 conference and they nailed it with some over the top gore with Doom to an awesome new mobile version of Fallout to the megaton announcement that is Fallout 4

 

That wraps up the announcements from Bethesda, the team are going to do their level best to get some hands on with the titles at E3 so stay tuned for that.

Microsoft

Next up Microsoft took to the stage to showcase what is going to make them the gamers console of choice in this generation and they did exceptionally well with some shock announcements.

For me the two draw dropping moments were the announcements of Backwards compatibility and that Hololens demonstration.

EA Games

Next up we had EA Games and while EA refused to give us invites to their conference we used our local skills and managed to get all three of our journalists into the conference.

Which was a mistake as it was seriously dull.

The thing is their games are looking amazing but the actual show was so incredibly dull. I’m a massive football fan but sitting and talking to Pele for 15 minutes was pretty pointless really.

Ubisoft

By this time I was crashing and I couldn’t stay for the Ubisoft event but Matthew and Geoff worked like demons and posted the following from that conference.

Nothing earth shattering from Ubisoft this year but Rainbow Six Siege and the Division are looking great as well as a nice surprise seeing Ghost Recon make a return.

Sony

By this time even the machine that is Geoff had stopped working and the young gun Matthew had to handle the last conference on his own, and what a marvellous job he did.

Sony killed it with some amazing announcements like a brand new remake for Final Fantasy 7 as well as the reveal that they had acquired the timed exclusive for the Call of Duty DLC.

Not to mention that The Last Guardian is still apparently alive?

And last but not least by any stretch, don’t forget to check out hands on of the upcoming Kings Quest from Activision.

So that wraps up day 0. Today the guys are hitting the Square Enix conference, and then E3 officially – followed by some hands on events and a PC gamers conference.

Oh and stay tuned for some incredible pew pew embargoed footage, images and 60fps video that we can’t reveal just yet. Hint: it may be revealed at 9pm.

    I guess the Mass Effect Andromeda announcement was not important enough to be here. 🙁

      I think it’s the Apple effect. People seem to automatically think anything from Sony is awesome. I can already hear someone argue with me about why Dark Souls3 will be “better” on PS4 and why ffvii will only be on PS4(it won’t though, it’s only going to be there first.

      Sony lost. Xbox had a pretty awesome presentation and they listened really well to what people want, the backwards compatibility is just awesome. As far as winning goes Bethesda had the best conference, entertaining, cool games and Fallout 4 just looks beautiful.

      If you want proof look at the way Gavin had to list stuff for Sony compared to Xbox. Sony has all their indie games listed with their major games and announcements. Xbox has that shortened to “check out all their new indie games”.

      Freaken apple ruined everything, including gaming.

        even if we look at purely the games from sony conference

        final fantasy 7 doesnt seem like a exclusive
        last guardian although “cool” its basically the same footage that was released and looks the exact same as the PS3 iteration. Almost none of the Sony games have dates to them so they could be vapourware for all we know
        Didnt uncharted crash as well on stage?
        and wow they finally got a media player, drum roll

        in my opinion:
        1st. Microsoft as they really did a lot here: games, and hardware, and new OS
        the backwards compatibility is one thing, but its way more then that as they joining the 360 and One ecosystem, ie One players can play with 360 players now
        also the preview program for developing games is pretty sweet

        2: Bethesda as they showed great games

        3: Ubi also good

        4: Sony

        5: EA

        Edit* Yes I see the Apple effect here quite clearly

        ME was AWESOME yes.

        But to me there are three greats: Fallout, Diablo, Starcraft.
        ME is a VERY solid 4th, but I won’t get it;s collectors.

          Fallout 2 was great and 3 was good.
          Diablo died for me with 3.
          SC … can’t wait for Void but still nowhere near the excitement levels I have for ME.

          Coincidentally for all those I have and always will get CE.

    Honestly now… It looks like because Microsoft screwed up so badly in 2013, even when they have the best E3 press conference, it still gets labelled as “okay” at best.

    Nobody in their right mind can argue against MS having had the best and most varied announcements but saying that would be like saying DStv is actually doing a pretty decent job for their market.

    Old Ubisoft image is old… Although it may be apt as Ubisoft seem to be stuck in the past.
