Announcement

There can be no denying that Ubisoft is one of the big boys now. From the Triple A to more unique and indie spirited, there seems to be no stopping them.  Whether you like to drop from roofs with hidden blades up your sleeves, drive cars really fast over an immense game world, tactical shootering, or perhaps something a little less flashy with a little more depth, Ubi brought it this year.  Compiling an impressive list to bring on stage, here’s the highlights of Ubi’s press event.

During their huge digital event away from some of the glitz and glamour of E3, Nintendo came out swinging against its competitors, confirming some major new editions of titles like Mario Party, The Legend of Zelda, Star Fox and even Mario vs. Donkey Kong!  They also shed some more light on previously announced titles like the new Smash Bros, and Hyrule Warriors!  Read on to find out more.

The other one, the other big ole name in gaming. They had something to prove, quite literally. People were waiting to see what they had to say for themselves, a misstep would have been disastrous; It seems they figured that out. I don’t doubt the wave of social media bile and hate following their last E3 showing had something to do with it. Angry nerds in numbers are pretty good at making themselves heard. At any rate, they had a killer show with a lot of great things to tell you about.

You ready? I certainly am. E3 time is fast approaching and its shaping up to be a good year. Fresh on the heels of the latest hardware generation there are a lot of folks clambering to make their case this year. Sony seems to have pulled ahead of Microsoft who have to make a big splash if they hope to make up the ground, and let’s not forget about Nintendo. While these two ‘Titans’ have clashed in the past, Nintendo have quietly switched things up before and changed gaming as they did. Regardless, there’s a lot of reasons to expect interesting things. Without further adieu, here is a list of some of the big players this year, and some of the cool stuff on display.
