IRC LIVE CHAT
As with every year a bunch of us will be chilling in the IRC on the days leading up to and during the E3 conferences. It's always a good time to come in and discuss the new titles, the new failures or to simply just hang out and stay up-to-date with all the information as it flows in!

If I can put NL down get time I will make a Nintendo card like the good ol' days.
 
We are so looking forward to E3! My husband has his fingers crossed for a new Banjo-Kazooie and we're very excited about the Ninentdo Direct. Can't wait to chat with you all about it!
 
Starting to get excited, hope both nintendo and microsoft pull through with some awesome announcements.
 
So what games do you all hope will be mentioned?

-Persona 5 would be an awesome announcement, if something like that happened it would make the PS4 (I'm assuing) a day one buy for me
-Dark Souls 2, although I don't know if I want to know too much about the game
-Theif 4, I liked the other games and I'm hoping this one is good.
-Bayonetta 2 and Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem... so I can cry about how I can never play them.
-Half-Life 2 Episode 3. I still believe.

Oh wait there was that game I saw a trailer of recently... it had a bunch of people with numbers over their heads, robots, some giant monster, and was in a similar style to the person games. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Oh my gourd, I didn't even think about a Persona 5! That would be awesome!
 
The voting thing was hilarious. Wasn't it on GameTrailers? Definitely needs to happen.

That meter was literally the best part of E3 for my last year. Pretty sure it was a Gametrailers thing.
 
I'm looking forward to Sony's conference. Hoping to see Infamous, the next-gen Final Fantasy, Naughty Dog's rumored PS4 title, Beyond Two Souls, and anything new concerning Puppeteer, MGS5, Dragon's Crown, and the working title Deep Down from Capcom. The Sony CEO reported to IGN that the PS4 launch is centered around games, so I'll be hoping he means that, and Sony is supposedly showcasing over 40 titles, granted some of these are probably Vita and multiplatform titles. Hopefully Gakai will receive some clarification and Sony will announce any PSN titles that may feature on PS4. I'm already planning to purchase the console. E3 will tell me if it's a launch purchase or not.

Capcom mentioned an E3 surprise as well. I'm also interested in what it could be. I'm very interested in seeing Dragon Age 3 from EA as well.; I'm a longtime fan of the series. I won't be buying XboxOne, but I do want to see them have a nice array of exclusives. I'm not expecting anything too breathtaking from Nintendo other than more features in established franchises that are unlikely to innovate much, but I do want to see what they have up their sleeve for SSB and Mario.
 
So what games do you all hope will be mentioned?

I want Level-5 to announce a release date for the North American version of Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright. I'm tired of seeing the Japanese game in stores all the time and it taunting me, because I can't read Japanese well. -_-
