E3 has come and gone once again and has left in its path a plethora of gaming goodies for us to feed off of until it returns in 2016. I really enjoyed the major conferences and the titles they had to offer up. I was throw off by the route Nintendo took this year and was really hoping to see more footage of Zelda, but we take what we can get. Here is my top 5 list of games that E3 showed this year!
Horizon: Zero Dawn
PS4
I was ecstatic when I saw this trailer, killing robot dinosaurs with explosive arrows? Count me in every single time! In Horizon you play as a female hunter named Aloy, you explore a vibrant and lush world inhabited by mysterious mechanized creatures. Embark on a compelling, emotional journey and unravel mysteries of tribal societies, ancient artifacts and advanced technologies that will determine the fate of this planet, and of life itself.
ReCore
Xbox One
So lately Ive been diggin the whole apocalypse genre, whether it is movies or games I'm generally excited when I come across it. So naturally ReCore caught my attention fast and for me was one of my favorite game reveals from Microsoft. In ReCore you play as one of the last remaining humans, were you forge friendships with courageous robot companions and lead them on an epic adventure through a mysterious, dynamic world.
Final Fantasy VII Remake
PS4 | Xbox One?
This one came as a surprise to me! Once the trailer started I was thinking "could this really be a FF7 remake!?" by the end of the trailer my thoughts were revealed true and I was so stoked! Though this one wont be available for a while and I'm not sure whether it is set to be released on multiple platforms yet (fingers crossed), I cant wait to relive on of my favorite childhood games.
Shenmue 3
PS4
This is another one the completely caught me by surprise. I have been a huge Shenmue fan from the beginning, playing the first on the Dreamcast (my favorite console) and then the 2nd one on Xbox, I was always hoping to see a 3rd title released one day. After 13 years of waiting I just figured it was not going to happen, But it is and Sony is backing it!
Star Wars Battlefront
PS4 | Xbox One | PC
Being a huge Star Wars fan, this is my most anticipated game of the year. Ive been following it very closely since its reveal earlier this year. Ive been a fan of battlefront since the beginning and prefer it to most shooter games out there. Though I am super bummed there will be no space battles in this one (hopefully in a future DLC?!) I can not wait to get my hands on this in November.
Well gamers, that's all for this post. What are some titles you are looking forward too? There are a few other titles like Star Fox, Tomb Raider, Halo 5 that I am excited about but didn't want this post to run too long. Thanks for reading!
