Man, that Zelda looks incredible.

anyone with watch dogs on ps4- is it necessary to do the uplay thing when you start up the game? i've played the game a few times skipping this step, but am curious if i will be forced to later on to complete the game. is there a point to the uplay other than seeming to be the way to participate in multiplayer? i couldn't care less about online multiplayer so if i don't have to sign up/login to uplay i would prefer not to.

The multiplayer is awesome, you should definitely sign up.

A little disgusted with the Zelda interview I read. To summarize, "a less linear main quest with the ability to play dungeons out of order and explore the expansive overworld." Isn't this the exact fucking thing Nintendo stated with TP and SS? While it was possible to find and begin dungeons out of order in a few of the early Zeldas (LoZ and LA come to mind), was it ever possible to complete a dungeon out of order? I know with LA you could get so stuck, you would need to start from scratch. I love the Zelda franchise more than any other, but just state you plan on sticking to the tried and true adventure formula that you do so well. A real Zelda will never be an open-world sandbox game.

Was there any more news on Hyrule Warriors? They'd be smart to release this for the holidays. A "fake" Zelda will still sell better than almost anything.

Edit: Hyrule Warriors has a release date of September 26.

2015 Is shaping up nice:

Zelda
Tomb Raider
Halo 5
Uncharted 4

I'll take those 4 franchises anyday.

I think they'll take the approach they did with Link Between Worlds. You could do any dungeon in any order (after a certain point in the game) because you could buy and/or rent items at any time. It actually worked out really well. I'm kind of assuming they'll just take this system and put in a full, open 3d world.

Yeah, I'm all for the change. The art direction looks top notch too.

again, it's not really my thing. i'm a casual gamer with a slow learning curve, and get easily frustrated in multiplayer games. i'm "that guy", repeatedly running into walls and shooting my own teammates, and i get pissed when i can't accomplish simple tasks and other guys are sniping me every 10 seconds or so.

so thanks, but no thanks. it's best i leave it alone.

Picked up a Wii-U last weekend basically just to play Mario Kart and Earthbound.

Going to E3 again tomorrow.

I might have to get a PS4 just for Little Big Planet 3. Love those games.

I might get a ps4 just for that no mans sky

Wii U is the first Nintendo console I haven't owned within at least a couple months of release.

Still don't own it.

Zelda will change that and I predict it is the only Wii U game I will buy. Hoping to get a good cheap used console by then.

I really wish they would just get out of the console biz and license the big franchise games out to the better machines.

Developed by Hello Games, the indie studio behind PS3 hit Joe Danger, No Man's Sky is a science-fiction game without limits. If you see a mountain, you can trek there. If you see a planet hanging on the horizon, it's a real place, with its own rich ecology of creatures and vegetation. You can get in your ship, fly into space and it's yours to explore. Not just that, but every star in the sky is just the light of a sun, with its own solar system waiting for you to discover and adventure in.

Welp, I'll be getting this and never leaving the house again.

Same here. I think I'll just set aside a week of vacation to play it

I need to find a cheap ps4 so I can get that.
