The only reason Rayman fooled us is the video he made. @vaanrose even said it looked like art when it was just images.

There's varying quality, though.

Like, Shovel Knight and K. Rool were pretty good, while Shantae and Banjo-Kazooie look iffy.

Didn't fool me. I was indecisive, leaning towards fake. :awesome:

I don't think any of the other Smashified renders would've fooled anyone besides the Rayman one, though. Especially not Shantae or Banjo.

I'm honestly surprised Xbone's conference was average, I definitely see Nintendo and Sony obliterated it. Micro didn't show ebough, or any that is fully hype worthy for E3, some of it was, other parts not so much. Which is where i feel sony and Nintendo will pick up on and announce many big games.

If I had to rate Microsoft's E3 conference, I'd give it around 6-6.5/10. It wasn't great and it wasn't bad, it just felt a bit average in my opinion (although the backwards compatibility was the only highlight for me.)

Microsoft knocked it out of the park this E3. You have to give credit where credit is due.

I was sat there the entire time, bored stiff. Then saw Rare's lifeless body tossed into the dumpster after 15 years of ****.

If I had to rate the conference, I'd rate it crap/10.

Microsoft's E3 conference looked "eh".
EA, as we all know it, isn't going to be amazing. Ubisoft comes right after EA, right?

Microsoft really wasn't bad, it was just really boring. Nothing really interested me besides Cuphead. If I had to give it a rating it would probably be 4.5/10 At least it wasn't as bad as the previous 2 years

Is there a complete list of the 30 games in the Rare Replay package? I hope they include Grunty's Revenge and Banjo pilot in there.

Oh wait, Microsoft said that there'd be 100 baclwards compatible games by the end of the year. False alarm.

Still laughable that this is what they start with.

Some pretty amazing games here. Would have been perfect if they ditched a Jetpac and Viva Pinata (Trouble In Paradise literally makes the first one worthless) for the 2 missing Banjo games.

Wow. This actually is a game...

Good thing I will never buy an Xbox One.

Woah, so rare are making a 30 game collection for Xbox One. It's going to include Jet Force Gemini, Battle Toads, Banjo Kazooie etc!!!

Well it's not like they would make a good game out of any of their old IPs anyway. But this has come too late... I already got the majority that I care about.

And this is a big reason why I am primarily a retro gamer.

Most of the old Rare staff is gone. Even if they did make a new Banjo-Kazooie, I don't think it'd live up to expectations. It's not the same Rare.

I'm a huge fan of Rare's old works and what happened to Banjo and all the other old Rare IPs is horrible. But at the same time.....I think it's too late for a revival, and it's probably for the best at this point that they all stay dead.

Same here. I've accepted that I would inevitably be disappointed in any new titles from Rare's old IPs. I'd rather Microsoft quits with them while they're behind then to have multiple anticipated games canceled and no future outside of mobile games (I think you know what I'm referring to).

Of course, but to be fair, there is supposed to be around 100 Xbox 360 compatible titles by the end of the year.

So I just got through watching last year's Nintendo Digital Event. This is everything they showed:

Smash 4
amiibo
Yoshi's Woolly World
Captain Toad
Zelda Wii U
Pokemon ORAS
Bayonetta 2
Hyrule Warriors
Kirby Rainbow Curse
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Super Mario Maker
Splatoon

Now, look at this: Of the 12 things they announced, only 4 of them haven't released, those being Yoshi's Woolly World, Zelda Wii U, Super Mario Maker, and Xenoblade Chronicles X. I'm hoping we'll get a great showing this year and have all or most of the games they'll show be available by the next show the following year.

Well, there's no telling what's happening with Zelda Wii U now :/
Interesting to note that out of those games, Smash, Woolly World, ORAS, Bayonetta 2, Hyrule Warriors and Xenoblade X had been known about in some form beforehand...I expect that we'll have a fair amount of content coming to this year's Digital Event, especially if it's 15 minutes longer.

ALSO YOU FORGOT STAR FOX

Not bothering to watch EA unless they change it up somehow (they won't) and if Madden and NFS aren't same games I've played my senior year in high school (they aren't) and if Mass Effect is good (it can't, won't and it will never happen)

But anyway has anyone tried doing an 8 player Smash match with:
