That was honestly a pretty good conference even considering the mess they went through last year! Lots of new IPs, some indie games, bringing Halo back for the nostalgia hounds (not judging, just saying), and Platinum really delivered with ScaleBound. I just HAD to grab my copy of W101 and give it a great big hug. (I'm such a fucking nerd. But screw it, Platinum is just fantastically fabulous.)
Honestly I remember early on in the conference I was just thinking that "Jeez there sure are a lot of Fantasy-esque RPGs this time around. Not my thing. Oh well." And then KAMIYA BURSTS ONTO THE SCENE and automatically I'm hyped. And get this it's actually what looks to be a Fantasy-esque setting but mixed in with the action of Bayonetta and DMC. Not to mention that guy looked a lot like Nero what with the Devil Arm and what I assume to be a Devil Trigger. Also the setting was Fantasy-esque but he had Beats by Dre on for some reason and that kind of threw me off cause it didn't make sense but that's basically Platinum being everything what I love about them.
People are complaining about it trying too hard to be DMC. Yeah? Well fuck you I want this game to happen. Every other Fantasy RPG tries too hard to be Dark Souls! *pouts*
Seriously Kamiya alone might have single handedly bought Microsoft one more Xbone console for his game alone (and a few others Sunset Overdrive, Killer Instinct, and if I do get one, might as well get the Halo Collection thing.)
Also my god, did you see the title for the Dead Rising 3 DLC that was so incredulous it was actually rad. I can't even remember it and there's no picture of it online yet as of this posting (#Had2BeThere).
Edit: Found it!
Can't wait to see what Sony has to offer!
