In life, there are many staples, peanut butter and jam, bread and a toaster, and in gaming…
Enter a realm where the ordinary fades away, and true luxury reigns supreme. Presenting …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves! The only thing more frightening, is a glimpse at your empty bank account when it comes to deciding whether or not you can grab Resident Evil Village this month. Capcom's successor to its long-running survival-horror franchise is finally out, and if you've read our review then you know the game is a winner on multiple levels.
Critical Hit is built on the idea that we are more than one thing. Are you a hardcore gamer who also enjoys a night out at the movies? Perhaps you’re a professional cosplayer who is searching for the perfect burger, or maybe you’re just interested in high-end tech and Netflix binging. Covering gaming, entertainment, tech and geek, Critical Hit offers information and critique from a staff of diverse, knowledgeable and fiercely opinionated writers.

Bugger EA 😛 MS was rather a lackluster affair…

Yeah, it was meh! Let’s see how EA fares.

Indeed brother, hope work isn’t too busy for you this week. The debates on LG are going to be epic 😉

Hoping for a Mass Effect trailer, or at least announcement
Rinceinantici
June 9, 2014 at 20:54
I would be so happy!

I will literally cry. Unless its a prequel. Then I will ugly cry tears of utter sadness

Hopefully, I can squeeze in a session during tomorrow’s Annual SONY vs Microsoft vs Nintendo Extreme Verbal Diarrhea on LAGZ 2014 (ASMNEVDLAGZ 2014).

And two hours later, we can all agree, EA did even worse than Microsoft. What a dull start to E3 2014… :/
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:31
Dat Tomb Raider reveal!
But yeah other than a few other titles it was lackluster. Waiting for Forza Horizon 2 Resolutiongate.

June 9, 2014 at 20:33
Not enough…Crackdown was CGI, Division was CGI(lol),ScaleBound was CGI….Meh all around
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:34
Was thinking more around Evolve and DA.
#Believe
June 9, 2014 at 20:36
But we know sooooo much about it already
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:38
True but still. Evolve made me feel something tingly and DA made me change my pants.
#Believe
June 9, 2014 at 20:39
Da was mouth watering and oh, Witcher, phew…My undies
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:40
OH yeah … how could I forget. Too bad he did not show the return of Geralt to that camp … if you know what I mean. 😛
#Believe
June 9, 2014 at 20:42
LOOOOOOL I was hoping for that, I mean, just to see the crowd’s reaction
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:43
Well if they did not know that the Witcher is a porn game hiding in an rpg they have really been out of touch. 😛
Rinceinantici
June 9, 2014 at 20:33
Ya. Damn that looked dope!
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:34
Just a bit annoyed at the title. Rise is getting to be quite popular for titles these days.
Rinceinantici
June 9, 2014 at 20:36
Next you’ll be saying the next Planet of the Apes title has rise in… Fuck

Where were all dem bombs that Pieter Kruger said they were gonna drop. Honestly not a single game that caught my attention aside from Sunset Overdrive to some extent.
Rinceinantici
June 9, 2014 at 20:59
Agreed. And most games cross platform with timed release rights
iAmWeasel
June 9, 2014 at 21:00
Yes aside from the cross platform stuff such as Witcher and the Division, which look great!
Jim Lenoir (Banana Jim)
June 9, 2014 at 20:28
Let’s throw in a few predictions:
A cool video for UFC, (YAY)
Something Something Madden,(MEH)
Something something FIFA (MEH)
Something Something Need for Speed (MEH),
A one cave for Dragon Age (YAY)
More pew pew militarised cop-style in fascist America (Battlefield Hardline – MEH)
Jim Lenoir (Banana Jim)
June 9, 2014 at 20:29
A new Mirror’s Edge? (YAY)

One game that I am looking forward to. Jumped out of my chair last year when they revealed it.
Rinceinantici
June 9, 2014 at 20:35
Won’t play it, not after how they treated Rihaana, my future wife.
Kromas
June 9, 2014 at 20:36
So you want her under your ubeerrellla ella ella ella?

What did they do now?
#Believe
June 9, 2014 at 20:29
Dare I say…..Mass Effect?……
Jim Lenoir (Banana Jim)
June 9, 2014 at 20:30
Ah yes, that would be something. I’ll add that to cautiously optimistic.
#Believe
June 9, 2014 at 20:31
But as for your above mentioned…Spot on. Opening with Hardlined is my prediction

Melasco
June 9, 2014 at 20:53
