So just as I was beginning to give up on video games and next gen consoles E3 2015 comes around. I have always been a big fan of video games but since the release of the next gen consoles in PS4 and Xbox One there have been very few games to take advantage of the next gen consoles power also many games have been riddle with delays and worst of all launch errors. Some unforgivable. Keeping this all in mind however the one game that I have consistently been playing is Destiny. I constantly talk to people about how repetitive the game is however I always find myself going back, anyway I'm going off point.
E3 finally has announced several games that I just can not wait to get my hands on. There are only two games in this world that I will buy without question. Both of those receiving announcements and further announcements at this years convention.
First of all, and quite frankly most important, Fallout 4 has been announced! Yes Fallout 4, the game we have all been wishing for since the announcement of the next gen consoles, the game we have all been waiting for news on since the original release of Fallout 3, with New Vegas managing to quell the angst for a short time. Well now we know it exists and not just this we also know when it will be released. 10/11/2015 sees Fallout 4 hit the shelves, well I have already booked time off work and also after some deliberating have ordered the Pip-Boy Edition, but more on that later.
Fallout 4 sees a return to the fan favourite series featuring a new location, in Boston, a new protagonist, who for the first time is voiced, featuring both gameplay pre nuclear war and post nuclear apocalypse. Not much was given away regarding the story line and for way more info than I can type you can check out the video above which features the Fallout 4 E3 showcase!
What I will type more about is the Pip-Boy edition! This is Fallout 4's collectors edition and is just absolutely perfect. It took me two days after the announcement to decide I wanted one, and I'm glad it didn't take me any longer, as these are now sold out. What is contained in the Pip-Boy Edition you ask? Well check out the image below;
Your eyes do not deceive you that is a wearable pip boy which houses your phone to be used as a fully functional Pip-Boy by downloading an app for your phone which allows you use this as a second screen experience. But I guess we will find out more once it finally comes around which seems to be so so far away right now!
Secondly the Destiny Taken King expansion has been officially announced, after Red Bull giving away the title name. This will be released on the 15/09/2015, just over a year after the original release last year. This will also be the largest expansion released yet after The Dark Below and The House of Wolves. This will see a new sub-class be introduced, alongside more weapons, armour and of course another story plot to follow. The Taken King sees the Guardians taking on Oryx, the father of Crota who the Guardians previously killed in The Dark Below. So we have a pissed of father coming to avenge his son. Well there is still plenty more to be announced but alongside the confirmation of the title of the expansion and its release date a development video has been released along side a trailer and of course a collectors edition.
What do you think of the collectors edition. There is plenty for any hardcore Destiny fan to look forward to. Including a physical copy of those pesky Strange Coins you have to obtain to buy anything for Xur of a weekend. Along with the physical items there are several digital bonuses including early access to weapons packs, along with Exotic items. Is this something you will look to be buying? My main bug bear is that most versions that are up for pre-order include the original game and past two expansions. Well I already have all of these so why am I paying a whole loada money just to buy what I have again. Will I be picking up this collectors edition? No, I won't for the reason I just made and also it has to be something incredibly special for me to consider purchasing, like the Pip-Boy Edition for Fallout 4. However I will be looking forward to new missions to head of with my Guardian.
Finally, and by no means least. Star Wars Battlefront finally revealed game play for both Multiplayer and Single Player offline/ Co-Op offline or what seem to be called 'Missions'. I have been waiting for this game since its announcement when both the partnership between Disney/ Lucasfilm and EA was revealed. What do you think of the gameplay trailers and are you excited for this when it is finally released. I hear nothing but good things about it coming from various sites who have had exclusive access to behind close doors viewings. I've lost count how many times I have watched the gameplay trailers and I won't write much more and just let the trailers themselves do the talking. What I will say is this is one game I hope for some sort of Star Wars themed collectors edition, I can dream right? Lets just hope my ability at playing any sort of first person shooter improves before this games release.

Oh right yes, there is just one final trailer I needed to post, and I hope to post more about it later along side hopefully many more details. But as many of my friends know and also as you should be able to tell from my About section a new trailer and release period were announced for the next gen Mass Effect, I for one can not wait for more details on this and will be looking forward to Holiday 2016. What caught your eye at E3?
