Square Enix's North American President has left the company

Moving on to bigger and better things isn't all bad though...

Kaepora22: Probably for the best. Those games sold really well and they were still hounded for not meeting their expectations. Hope he gets more respect where he's at, now.

blackmaniac: guess Michael Ironside got sick of beeing Sam Fisher

Grandpennywise: I'm sorry, but Sams new voice is so not-fitting the character at all. He sounds too young and, well, just no x.x
I think I would've rather seen a new character take his place.

So what is Xbox One trying to offer us as an all-in-one entertainment hub?

Let's re-cap the Xbox One press event!

metabro: Why waste the money at all? Sony has not proven anything either, other than they are extremely desperate for people to be interested in the Camera, Vita, and Move. Going to stick with my Wii U and wait for a year at least until stuff gets straightened out, despite how good E3 might turn out, which was the plan since both reveals of each console

Angry Canadian Gamer: From the big reveal yesterday, it looks like the XBox One Dashboard still has ads, and there's been no word from Microsoft on the Xbox Live service becoming free.

Don't like the new Kinect motion controller that comes with the Xbox One? Tough shit. The Xbox One won't work if it isn't connected.

While it will require an internet connection but not an always online connection, the Xbox One is just like SimShitty and Diablow 3 in that if your system can't report in to their new cloud service at least once a day, whether your connection goes down or you live somewhere you aren't able to get high speed internet, you won't be able to use the Xbox One.

No backwards compatibility with any of the 360's disc based games, XBLA downloads, or peripherals/controllers (but you get to keep your Gamerscore...woot?).

Basically what I'm saying is, if Microsoft doesn't change, disprove or adequately explain any of that at E3 in under 3 weeks, I WILL be buying a PS4 instead.

Get a look at the console, along with some of the ways you'll be using it.

luhsolowing: Xbox One huh? Now i'll have to stop calling the first Xbox the Xbox One and start calling it "The first Xbox."

ShinraCorp: I believe this is a great entertainment machine, however not so much as a game console. While little to no details came out on the game side of things, the Xbox One does want to challenge every single thing in your living room, including SmartTVs. By unifying all of the entertainment into one machine and controlling it using your hands and voice is impressive. However when they demonstrated the games, it was lack luster, Call of Duty: Ghosts looks like Battlefield 3, not a fan of FIFA or Forza, while yes they do look "pretty" (they have to I mean 8 GB of GDDR5 we're talking about here.) They didn't really show anything that could only work on Xbox One nor do they look any different in terms of gameplay. As for pricing, console is going to be 399$, without any chips to make it backwards compatible, they saved up on the cost for the console.

[Rumor] Capcom promotional material leaks, pointing to Resident Evil 7

Will Capcom reveal the latest installment in the franchise this E3?

5/21/13 11:45pm

Animeking1108: Well, at least they put Megaman out of his misery before he would be subject to turning into a FPS or having on-disc DLC.

5/21/13 5:50am

Sckarton: i was talking about the gundam version of dynasty warriors not the series as whole.

5/21/13 2:40am

TheEnglishman: I actually enjoyed 6 but it would definitely be too early to start pulling 7 out.

This section is kind of awkward. I need to write some interesting, but not bore you with my life story. Let's "get down to brass tacks", we all like video games.
