Nerds Without Pants Special: E3 2017: X Goin' Give it to Ya

Remember when E3 started on Tuesdays? I do...

Welcome to the first Nerds Without Pants E3 special of the year! It's just Julian and Patrick tonight, and we've got a lot to say about the EA, Microsoft, and Bethesda press conferences!

Really, that's all we talked about. It's 1:30AM and I have to be at the airport at 6. WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!

Can't wait to listen to this episode. Gotta finish up with the latest NWP first though, or else the jump in order in my Podcasts will drive me nuts.

I'm actually kind of stoked for Madden story mode, if only because Mahershala Ali is in it, from the picture I saw. That, and it looks like college might be integrated ... which I'd be more excited about if they had that for basketball, since my alma mater (SFASU) has appeared during March Madness recently. Oh well.

I didn't watch the EA conference live (I just went to the IGN trailer page before listening to this again), so I missed the YouTuber thing, but have you seen Bill Nye Saves the World? They had some white, female rapper in that doing correspondence work, and it felt so ... pandering.

Honestly, your mention of Need for Speed looking like Burnout is why I decided to check some trailers before coming back to this podcast. The trailer looks awesome. My one hope: Please, PLEASE let me play as the cops, unlike in the otherwise addictive 2015 edition.

A Way Out might be good, or terrible, for me to play with my older brother. However, as someone who mainly sticks to single player, I am probably not going to get it; especially not at full price. This reminds me, I need to play my copy of Brothers.

Battlefront II looks awesome, but did they show single-player mode? If so, that is a HUGE improvement in my opinion. I still regret even my $10 purchase of the most recent release though, so I'm ... skeptical. It's good they have people giving them feedback and free DLC for sure though. Having all eras in there is good, too.

0:00:00 to about 0:14:10 is the timestamp for EA stuff. I'm going to watch the rest of the Xbox presser and come back here.

I think I said the exact same thing about Anthem when I seen the gameplay and found out it's multiplayer based. It looks pretty cool! Too bad I'm never going to play it. I'm still waiting for something to get excited over this E3. It's just a lot of FPS's so far and I am just not big on those at all. Hopefully my attitude changes after the next couple presentations. Everything looks super pretty, but nothing has just grabbed me gameplay wise.

Forza 7 looks awesome. The Porsche 9-11 thing seemed a bit out of place ...

I was surprised how underwhelmed I was by Crackdown 3. It just looked ... eh.

Sea of Thieves had a way-too-long trailer. It just didn't ap Nerds Without Pants: Special: E3 2017: X Goin' Give it to Ya | PixlBit
