It's looking increasingly likely that both next-gen consoles will be out by Christmas 2013.


Was there ever any doubt? They wouldn't miss the time of year when most consoles are sold.

@[person]@AarynFlynn So far DA3 is my favorite, and it's not even done yet. In my opinion it has the best story and characters.

[Person]:
@ryan_loe @AarynFlynn Must you torture me? I can't wait till DA3 is released. One of my most anticipated games.

Aaryn Flynn:
@[person] @ryan_loe If you sunk that much time into DA:O and DA2, I'll bet you you sink twice that into DA3 all by itself

[Other person]
@[person] @ryan_loe @AarynFlynn You and me both. Already planning my staycation.

Aaryn Flynn:
@[other person] @[person] @ryan_loe Make it a sabattical-cation. It's big.

Aaryn Flynn:
@[other person] @[person] @ryan_loe DAMMIT! Why didn't I say "sabbatic-ation"? :)

Yeah, "sabbatic-ation"  really just rolls off the tongue much better.

All this talk of how big it is. It makes my insides quiver w/antici---Pation.  However, just cuz its big doesn't mean you still don't need to know how to Work it. Jussayin'.

:mellow::mellow:

Hmm, I've had a couple glasses of wine. Perhaps...I should go. :bandit:

SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUP!!!!!! Don't get my hopes up. Let me thrive in my cesspit of misery and pessimism so that I may one day crawl into the burning light and cry to the wailing masses: "I told you so!"

Naw, but seriously, I hate these tweets, they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I'm too easily swayed by the honeyed words of devs.

Just in case something is shown at Microsoft's Xbox reveal later today, here's a timezone conversion of when it's starting (provided by Microsoft, so not sure if this link is totally accurate)

Looks accurate to me, though I'm surprised that the event is only an hour long.

Now, I am guessing this will be for the PS3 and XBOX 360 as I have been hearing that the PS4 will not be backwards compatible. Would make it kind of difficult to transfer info if it was not compatible right?

Microsoft reps have said that the event is just to show off the hardware and that they're going to be highlighting games at E3.

Down girl...

(took me three reads to get this, I need to get out more)

But I'm glad the dev's are loving the game so far, it doesn't really say much (like parents loving their new baby I guess) but it's better than the alternative.

Hard to say, some rumours a while ago out of Shanghai suggested DA3 would be next gen, and several devs seem to have indicated that they're under non-disclosure agreements. According to a couple of developers, there's some sort of new save file import system under consideration or in development, which could overcome the difficulty of a console generation transition. 

We'll likely know for sure on June 10, though! 

Mike also kinda confirmed E3 is the big reveal.

That's quite a claim. Looking forward to if it will prove right.

I can't personally put much stock in comments like that tbh. I mean, what do you think a developer is gonna say, "Yeah I suppose this one is passable, I mean it's not the best game we've ever made or anything, but it's alright."

They might not say anything at all. Of course they'll call it "awesome" and "great." But that's quite a statement to make. Still, we've been fooled before with PR speak. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, watch it, I'm huge!

Say nothing at all? Cause when you say "BEST GAME EVAH" and it turns out poor, expect a lot of backslash. Personally if I was a PR guy, or developer of a game or similar, I would never say what my opinion of the game is, even if it turns out to be GOTY or something. Safer that way.

But if Aaryn feels DA3 is best so far, that is his opinion.

It is also a personal opinion and unless you have the exact same taste as Ryan, you probably won't have the same opinions he does.

Well as I stated in my post above, that is indeed is opinion. But from a PR point of view, it will make people shake a fist if it where to not be so.

I'm not suggesting that they would lie about it if it was bad, but that they have an inherently biased perspective that makes their opinion on how good it is not worth a whole lot. It's their baby.

I'm not saying that to slight the devs, we all have our own biased perspective, there is no harm in acknowledging that.

^true enough. Were I creating a game, I would wish it was the best game ever, and possibly ignore some aspects which other people would dislike.

I doubt Microsoft'll show a third party cross platform game at their big reveal. IF they even show games at all it will be Halo 5 and maybe a new GoW

They're already confirmed to be showing Call of Duty and FIFA, at minimum. Probably BF4 too.

Well there's a little hope i guess and seeing CoD and BF at the same event would be hilarious

Microsoft reps have said that the event is just to show off the hardware and that they're going to be highlighting games at E3.

I've had arguments about where to eat dinner that were longer than an hour. I'm expecting a big intro, lots of fluff and buzz words, a reveal of the hardware, and then forty minutes about how the world is going to better with Kinect.
