Personally, Sony interests me more than Nintendo at this point, because I am hoping to soon get a Playstation Vita. I'm curious about what upcoming games may be on it. Or if that would even be mentioned.

To me Sony has horrible software so that's why I stick with Nintendo only.

The only thing that has my interest is the upcoming expansion to LEGO Dimensions. Check out the trailer that came out just a few days ago.

Watch Windows Ten cause a ton of problems to people's computers once they install it like Windows 7 and Vista did.

~MICROSOFT REVIEW~

So, the press conference for Microsoft just ended!  Here are my personal thoughts, in bullet point form!

-I love the idea of Play Anywhere; An online platform where you can play on any device available.  That being said, I hope this works out for Microsoft!  It will definitely change gaming if it works out.

-Recore looks awesome and it's definitely on my list!

-The idea to develop your controller the way you want is a great concept!  I'll be looking forward to getting my own custom made controller in the future.

-So many Independent Games went through that I couldn't keep track of them all.  As such, I'll be checking out ID@XBox to see what is available and get back to you all later on that.

-I am definitely looking forward to We Happy Few.

-Finally, I'll definitely keep an eye on Sea of Thieves.  I've always wanted to play as a pirate!  Here's my chance to get away with plundering and looting!  Yar me matey! :D

-As for the new XBox One S, I won't be getting it.  I'm good with XBox One currently.

That's all from me!  See ya later! :wave

EDIT: Also, I won't be covering the PC Gaming Conference as I said I would.  Lunch with my mother planned!  Sorry!  Someone else get it if you can.

I heard about the Xbox one S my clan was talking about it, it sounds as a really great xbox

I will also be looking for Halo Wars 2
The universe has a beginning, but no end. —Infinite.
The stars too have beginnings, but their power accompanies their decline.  —Finite.
It the wise who are the most foolish. History has taught us as much.
The fish of the sea know not the world of the land. Were they to possess wisdom, they too would experience decline.
It is more absurd that humans should surpass the speed of light than it is that fish should start living on the land.
- Steins;Gate (anime / visual novel)

~SONY REVIEW~

I will point out that Sony did not have much to announce, but they gave their all with what they had.  As such, there's not many games here I'm interested in, but below are my thoughts on the ones I'm looking forward to.

-Well, The Last Guardian has been given a release date finally.  Let's hope this is official and we get something good because I know a lot of people have been waiting for it.  I'll see how it is before I choose to buy it.

-Horizon: Zero Dawn looks interesting.  I'll keep my eye on that one.

-Detroit: Become Human is definitely on my list now.  I've always been interested by the "Choice Driven Genre" of gaming and how it effects your gaming experience.  This one has a very interesting premise and I am looking forward to it.

-Now the big one!  PlayStation VR!  To be honest, there's only one game for it so far that I'm interested in.  The Arkham games have always been tempting.  Yet, I don't want to get it for just one game.  Sure it's THAT game, (You know, the one you HAVE to get.) but I would like more variety, okay?

-When it comes to games, Lego always seems to know what they are doing.  As such, I am looking forward to how well they handled Star Wars: The Force Awakens.  Let's see if they can pull off another hit.

That's all I'm pretty much looking forward to.

See ya in a few days for my thoughts on the Nintendo one!

See ya later!
