Mass Effect Andromeda.

YES

HOLY CRAP! Did anyone just see the NFS gameplay?? Best graphics I've ever seen - hands down!

 

[Rikimaru]

Gameplay looks shitty though. Camera is awful on turns.

 

[AlNom]

Mass Effect Andromeda.

YES

Apparently in-engine capture.

 

[Laa-Yosh]

Yeah, however some or possibly most of the planets on the screen were obviously just matte paintings

 

[London Geezer]

Ok Unravel looks amazing. Best I've seen yet at E3. And bless him, the guy was shaking, he must have been terrified to be on that stage.

 

[Rikimaru]

Now EA conference is better than MS. Unravel looks more interesting than anything MS showed.

 

[L. Scofield]

Unravel looked OK, like an indie version of Yoshi's Woolly World.

Who is this celebrity, and why is he talking about his personal life which has nothing to do with gaming. This is my WTF moment of E3.

Well, Battlefront just won E3. Don't even need to see anything else.

Oh that's the guy who play this game where you kick a ball in a net? Yeah I remember seeing him on TV.

The guy is probably the most famous athlete in the world in the history of sports. Stop talking about soccer, old man! I'm trying to hear about video games! Lol.

EA won E3 hands down! At least graphically. Only problem with the Battlefront video was that the resolution seemed a bit low, particularly on the Tie Fighters.

Sports fans are so easy to tease

I wonder if they're going with 900p on PS4 and 720p on Xbox again.

I would say so. I liked how they did a good job of showing the different perspectives from the different sides fighting through the battle. I'm quite confused as to the Luke/Vader ending... uh, how? Is that a pre-scripted screen in order to move the story towards the next map after one team achieves its goals?

Looks like a lot of fun. Didn't know those big Imperial Star Destroyers (or whatever) were sub-orbital.

Really neat looking game.
