Destiny will be a flop, its basically just FPS version of WoW. Nothing new or interesting.

@Roccoroll please give me your address so I can come laugh in your face when you eat crow. I'm no FPS fan. I'd even go so far as to say I hate FPS. But to deny that a massive, quality open world FPS would flop is downright stupid.

@HisDudeness28 @Roccoroll @daveb81 Don't pay attention to him. He's butthurt that they haven't announced destiny for PC. If it comes to PC, he will be singing a different tune.

@Roccoroll @daveb81 @HisDudeness28 "ts an MMO made into a FPS, nothing new."

O~K. It's got an MMO loot system, huge world and killer graphics, you get to play with tons of friends. Hmmm, yeah you're right: that sounds like the perfect recipe for a flop. Idiot.

So you're dising the MMO genre while you are a PC fanboy, the platform that is home to the largest MMO's? Yeah that makes sense. Destiny looks sick.

They sure made me want to buy Division. That was the surprise of the show for me. Normally I wouldn't look twice at a Clancy game.

The Witcher 3 I already knew I want.

I don't get the BF4 hype. It looked ok but nothing exciting was shown. Seen scripted buildings fall over in games before.

Watch Dogs ~of course but I'm starting get sick of it cause of all the trailer spammage. Good thing GS isn't biased Q_Q.

Destiny by far. Dat revolutionary multiplayer with campaign quality vs generic FPS PVP games like COD, Battlefield and Planetside 2.

Destiny is the kind of game you can come home after a hard days work and really just play till you pass out.

The rest of these games are something you would play in between Destiny.

At least that's what I'm hoping for.

I'm extremely excited for many games. But my favorite of show was The Crew.

I don't even think it'll hold my attention as long as some other titles. Like Destiny or FFXV.

But it surprised me the most.

It's like Cruise'n USA.. but actually be able to go across the USA!!!! The NFS U2 inspired car customization also has me giddy about it.

@lilj2626 While I play Destiny on my PS4 I will play Bayonetta, MK8, a little Wonderful 101, and some other games. I love Nintendo, and if it's going out, then I want to go down with the ship, they haven't ever done the kind of BS XBOXone tried to do and they love games. Nintendo>MS any day of the fudging. week. With extra fudge and sprinkles.

I think it has to be a new IP so that cuts out half the games already. Of the remaining six, I don't know enough about Fantasia to judge that so I'm stuck between Watch Dogs, The Division, The Crew and Destiny. If any of those 4 win I'd be happy.


All 4 games are likely day one purchases. I think I'll say Watch Dogs since the other 3 games I think will need buddies to get the maximum enjoyment out of it but Watch Dogs you can chill offline whenever.

My favorite was Battlefield 4. Never played a Battlefield game before, but damn, it looked good; followed by Titanfall. Watchdogs also looks very impressive. Can't wait for South Park: Stick of Truth and of course, GTA V.

@Clownbabby @locknuts84 If Sony's smart they'll work with Square Enix to get Final Fantasy out at around the same time. Then gamers won't know what the **** to do. I'll be getting X though.

I'm looking down that list honestly getting sad. It's the same old story. New generation, bit like the old generation.

Out of all those, I'm only truly excited about Watchdogs and Witcher 3. Everything else is just typical "just for fun" iterations of things that have already been done to death.

@MooncalfReviews It is sad indeed... now it all comes down to rehash games and cash-grabs. Bring back the good old days of gaming where every game was different from one another.
