The Video Game Industry

Video games have come a very long way. From humble beginnings as a simple interactive exhibit to an entirely new form of interactive storytelling and ways to experience adventures with friends. The video game industry has been ripe with change, controversary, technological strides, and amazing works of art and commentaries on society.

Key Terms-

DLC- Downloadable content available for a game offered for a small extra price after the full release of the game.

Micro Transactions- Payments made with real money to get in game currency used to buy in game content.

FPS/TPS- First person shooter/ third person shooter.

Cabinet Game- An arcade style video game built into a cabinet like structure.

Console- a gaming device that can be used at home by plugging it into a TV screen.

Sandbox environment- A game environment that allows the player to roam where every and do almost whatever they want.

Triple-A Games- games that are very popular, make great sales on release, and is usually annualized to release a new game every year or two.

Historical developments-

The first video game was invented in 1958 by Physicist William Higginbotham and it was called Pong. The game was created was by Higginbotham as an interactive exhibit for the Brookhaven National Laboratory Group. The game was displayed on an analog computer and was based off tennis with players using two knobs to control two parallel bars bouncing a ball in between them. This simple concept was eventually ported to an arcade cabinet style and later an at home console game and led to the development of other cabinet style arcade games and at home video game consoles.

The 1970’s was the decade that arcade style video games became mainstream. Even a year before Pong was ported to a cabinet there was Atari’s 1971 game Computer Space a simple joystick-controlled game where you control a small spaceship and the first Arcade Cabinet game. These successes paved the way for all sorts of companies to start developing some of their own games to be made into arcade cabinets and played for a few cents a play. One of the most famous arcade games is Pac-Man a Japanese game licensed and distributed in the U.S. by Midway games and released in 1980. This is a simple arcade style game in which the player uses a joystick to control a small yellow circle shaped character named Pac-Man. The goal of the game was to earn points by going through a maze eating small dots while Avoiding Blinky, Pinky ,Inky, and Clyde four ghost who chase you through the maze. This simple yet incredibly fun game led to many sequels spinoffs and even a Hanna Barbara cartoon series.

Pac-Man isn’t the only game or character to receive mainstream popularity. The Japanese company Nintendo had a game and a character that would truly become timeless, he was a short Italian plumber, that wore a red hat, overalls and a large mustache and had a very funny accent. His name was Mario and the first game he was featured in was a 1981 arcade game called Donkey Kong. This game had Mario trying to rescue Princess Peach from the giant gorilla Donkey Kong. The player would use a joystick and buttons to guide Mario up platforms and over barrels being thrown by Donkey Kong. Mario would later get another main role in Mario Bros which introduced Mario’s brother Luigi. Mario has since become the face of Nintendo and is their flagship Character and shows no signs of losing any popularity.

It was popularity such as this that helped gaming companies make the next big leap from the arcades to peoples’ homes. These consoles usually had the same games you could play in an arcade preloaded onto them so you could play them as much you wanted for free at home. The first at home console was created in 1967 and was called simply the Brown Box and offered only six games ping pong, tennis, volleyball, hand ball, a chase game, and a light gun game. The Magnavox Odyssey was another early at home console that was so primitive to modern standards that it didn’t even have audio. These early 2-D arcade consoles eventually led to the rise of another technological breakthrough in the industry, 3-D gaming. These were not 3-D in the sense that the images appeared to be jumping out of the screen but more with the art style and how the games were graphically improved. For example in Super Mario Bros the character models are created from small colored squares called pixels. These pixels are colored and stacked into shaped to create a 2-D shape on the screen such as the image of Mario. Fast forward to the 3-D tech breakthrough and the number of pixels being used to create Mario increased dramatically, this meant the game developers could make much more detail character models that you could view from any angle. These advances in 3-D character modelling led to the development of one of the most famous consoles created, the Nintendo 64 was a huge leap forward for mainstream gaming and introduce help introduce the concept of a handheld controller with smaller buttons and a small joystick instead of a single joystick for controls.

The N-64 also brought amazing games such as Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart, James Bond: Goldeneye, and Mario Tennis. The popularity of the N-64 paved the way for other companies like Sony and Microsoft to hone in on the gaming console market with the release of the Sony PlayStation and the Microsoft X-BOX.

Notable Artists-

The gaming industry is filled with brilliant artist, studios, writers, programmers, and other types of creators that dedicate their time and effort to creating beautiful and stunning games for us to enjoy.

Shigeru Miyamoto- Creator of the Mario Franchise Japanese game developer Shigeru Miyamoto has one of the most creative and colorful imaginations in gaming. The worlds and characters he creates are colorful, cartoony, fun, and most of all memorable. Miyamoto claims to have been inspired by stories such as Alice In Wonderland in his design of the game world and the characters who inhabit it. Miyamoto has created characters such as Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Bowser, Goombas, Toad, Yoshi, and countless others.

Rockstar Games- Rockstar Games is a company the develops and produces some of the most detailed and expansive Sandbox Environment Games that not only present the player with amazing film quality level story and script writing but also a massive world to experience it all in that feels very close to real life.

Rockstar has published numerous successful game franchises such as the Max Payne, Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, Bully and many others. Rockstar games are notorious for amazing sales records as well with Grand Theft Auto V has made over $6 billion dollars in sales since its release in 2013 and Rockstar’s newest release of their Wild West epic Red Dead Redemption II making $725 million three days after the game was put out.

Recent Trends-

Video Games like any other form of media is subject to trends and the consumers demanding video games that are new, exciting, and interesting. In the 90’s the trend was first person shooters which were popular with computer gamers. First Person shooters consist of putting the player in the first person view of the protagonist, this makes actions like shooting at enemies much easier and more immersive. Games that pioneered this “FPS” (First Person Shooter) genre were games like Wolfenstein, and Doom. The FPS trend evolved in the late 90’s and early 2000’s and was greatly influenced by the 1998 movie Saving Pvt Ryan. After the film’s release there was a huge spike in WWII themed FPS games. A couple of these games almost recreated the Omaha Beach scene from Saving Pvt. Ryan perfectly, allowing player to take part in one of the most famous battles of WWII. Trends in gaming have again evolved with the popularity of the “battle royale”(BR). The BR genre consists of dropping up to 100 players on an island or other large area and having the play area slowly shrink as the players fight for supplies, weapons, shelter, and to be the sole survivor. Games like Player Unknown’s Battle Grounds and Fortnite popularized the genre and now larger annual game titles such as Battlefield and Call Of Duty have included BR game modes in their newest games.

Exemplary Examples-

An amazing and fairly recent example at how far gaming has come and shows just how amazing gaming can be as a mode of storytelling. Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption II is the sequel to the Highly praised Red Dead Redemption. After an eight year wait Red Dead fans flocked to stores to pick up the high anticipated sequel, and they were not disappointed. Red Dead II raked in not only over $725 million after only three days but also almost universal praise from the media. The game was in the news not only on gaming websites and magazines but also in the mainstream media. The game takes place in America during the year 1899 and has a strong Wild West theme to it. The game offers over sixty hours of gameplay just with the main story but adding in side activities and side missions to that play time can exponentially increase the play time for Red Dead II.

Red Dead II offers fun and in detail activities besides the main story missions, such as hunting. Hunting in Red Dead II consist of travelling to a location on the huge map where the animal your hunting is found for example if you want to hunt Alligators you must go to the swampy southern end of the map, if you want to hunt elk you must go to the snowy mountains in the north of the map. Once in the region of the animal you must rack it by looking for clues, once the animal is tracked you must decide the best weapon to take it down with-out damaging the skin. Animals skins that are intact and in better shape when you hunt them can be sold for more money or crafted into clothing for your character in game. This hunting mechanic is just one example of Red Dead II’s highly immersive world.

Ownership-

The video game industry lives on game developing companies that actually create the games. These companies like any other industry vary from small independent companies with a limited number of employees to large corporations and conglomerates that push out Triple-A games on a monthly basis.

An Example of a smaller independent developer is Tripwire Interactive. Tripwire specializes in FPS games especially “hyper-realistic” type FPS games like Red Orchestra and Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad. The Red Orchestra games were a welcome change to the type of gameplay offered from most WWII themed FPS games at the time. While other games feature fast gameplay with things like regenerating health and a Heads up Display (HUD) that displayed a mini map, health bar, and ammo count, Red Orchestra cut all that out. Tripwire focused on making a more realistic experience. This included mechanics such as realistic bullet ballistics with shots staring to arch over a certain distance, excluding a HUD feature altogether, and having the player venerable enough to be killed by a single bullet to add to the realism. These mechanics later carried on into other Tripwire games such as the Pacific Theatre WWII game Rising Storm and the Vietnam War game Rising Storm II.

An example of a larger and more corporate game developer that makes games similar to Tripwire. Dice Studios is a very well-known studio most famous for the production of the Battlefield franchise and more recently the Star Wars: Battlefront franchise. Dice is owned by Electronic Arts or EA a huge gaming development conglomeration that has many smaller game developers working for them. Dice has been making battlefield games since 2002 with the first title being a WWII FPS called Battlefield 1942. The game saw great success and EA recognized this and now has Dice pumping out Battlefield games almost every two years.

Demographics-

The demographics of gamers are actually a lot more diverse than one might believe. The usually stereotype is that gamers are either boys between the ages of 7-17 or young men in their twenties that live in their parents basement. There’s also a major stereotype that females do not like video games.

64% of the US general public play video games, The average age of the male gamer according to a Nielsen survey is 33 years old, according to the Entertainment Software Association the average age of female gamers is 37 years old. The countries that make the most from gaming revenue are The US bringing in an average of $25,426 million, Japan with $14,048 million, and China with a whopping $32,538 million.

Controversaries-

The gaming industry and its companies are not immune to controversary and culture movements.

The Grand Theft Auto Controversaries- Rockstar Game’s Grand Theft Auto (GTA) franchise is their most successful and most controversial franchise. The games are usually themed around crime and the main storylines have very graphic violence, drug use, and sexual content. The sandbox nature of the game also allows the player the opportunity to commit violence against non-enemy NPCs (non-playable characters) or go on shooting sprees until the cops kill you. GTA V came under harsh criticism for a playable scene In the story mode in which the player is forced to torture an FBI prisoner for information with anything from shock with a car battery, pulling teeth with plyers, or waterboarding. This scene especially got lots of media attention with many people asking the question if GTA games are to violent especially in today’s culture. Rockstar however uses this publicity and actually counts on it with each GTA release because it ultimately drives up their sales.

The Doom Controversary- On April 20 1999 two high school students Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold entered their high school armed with guns and homemade bombs. They killed twelve people that day and themselves, and in the subsequent investigation it was found that the boys were fans of one the first popular FPS games Doom. Doom is centered on very simple gameplay with an interesting story with the main character traveling to Mars and to Hell to fight demons. It was the demonic themes and violent gameplay that led some to believe that Doom was actually sending Satanic subliminal messages to players trying to corrupt them to violence.

Video Game Review: Call of Duty WWII

With another year comes another entry into the long-running and successful Call of Duty series. For the millions of fans of the franchise, Call of Duty WWII is a welcome back to what makes the game so big, but for most newcomers and returners, like myself, the overall package may not be enough to stay around too long.

One of the best things the series got right this year is returning to WWII. WWII is where Call of Duty started, and it only fits to go back after the response to last years Infinite Warfare. Only time will tell how the newest generation of players will take to the setting, but as a returning player, the boots on the ground gameplay is what sold me on giving the franchise a try after a two-year layoff. And in the beginning, I did not regret my choice.

One of the standouts, like many of the Call of Duty titles, is the story. While this iteration, like many before, still have the blockbuster set pieces and at times over the top moments that make the campaigns, so engulfing, Sledgehammer’s more grounded and realistic take on the subject matter is the most significant draw to the campaign. While none of the main characters are particularly memorable, none of them are unbearable. From the opening scene, it is apparent to see that this one of the best looking Call of Duties to date. The facial animations and character motion do an excellent job of capturing the feeling and horrors characters experience during such a horrific time in history.

The game play in the campaign also has some significant changes made to it. The biggest being unable to regenerate health. The addition of not having regenerating health is an excellent addition to the game and adds to the tone of not being superhuman in recent titles. I found myself dying a little more than expected in the very beginning due to running into gunfights and not thinking about my health. Usually, the blazing guns style in Call of Duty works due to being able to hide and let health regenerate over time. But the addition of having to find met packs made me change up my play style, which was a lovely welcome. However, locating med kits is not a tough as one may think due to another added addition to WWII, and that is campaign members having unique abilities.

Some of these abilities include a medic, who throws med packs to players on command when needed. Another is a support member who is there to refill ammo, and another is a scout who can detect enemies on the map and allows players to spot their locations easily. As a whole, these new additions add some freshness to the campaign. And while it does not reinvent the franchises campaign, the new additions are welcome and do much more good than harm for the story of the game.

The most prominent draw to any Call of Duty franchise is the multiplayer, and Sledgehammer made some significant changes this year. Unlike recent titles that have used the pick ten system, Call of Duty WWII uses a division system. The division system is a set of classes to choice from with each having their own set of specific skills and weapons. For example, one of the divisions is the airborne unit. This unit is most notable for using sub machine guns, and it is a more up close, silence and fast-paced approach. For this division, the particular skill allows players to attach silencers to their weapons. There are four other divisions to choose from, and each has their unique weapons and abilities for their class.

Another addition to the multiplayer is an entirely new game mode called War. War is Call of Duties answer to Battlefields rush or operations mode. And while War does not succeed at surpassing those, it is an excellent addition to the game. In War, one side of attackers look to overtake the opposing team’s territory while the other tries to hold off the attack until times runs out. For instance, one of the scenarios sees teams trying to extort tanks to an enemies bridge. It is a multi-phase process including guiding the tanks halfway through the map, and then after, the group leading the charge must pick up and deliver three tanks of gas to fill up the tanks and continue their pursuit towards the objective. And while the scale of Call of Duties War mode does not feel as grand as Battlefield, it is a welcome game mode to the franchise that hopefully sticks around. The only drawback so far is the lack of maps in War. Right now there are only three. But there will sure to be more added in the future.

This years version of Call of Duty also sees the introduction of headquarters, which in a nutshell is pretty much the tower in Destiny. It is a social space where players can interact with one another and pick up daily challenges that will give them rewards when completed. The headquarters also allows for players to use a gun range to try out new weapons before taking them into battle. Players are also able to try out new scorestreaks as well and even compete in 1V1 duels with other players. Headquarters is also where players open up loot boxes. Yes, unfortunately, loot boxes are here as well. So far the loot boxes are strictly cosmetic In multiplayer. As of now, Headquarters does not seem to have any need in the game other than just to have one. It is not a distraction. But the game would not have taken a significant hit if it did not have it. A firing range, dueling and having a way to try out scorestreaks all could be added in other ways.

Nazi Zombies also makes its return and sees some new additions added to it as well. One being the story. If any returning players skipped the most recent zombie entries, this story is entirely new and has no ties to any of the previous entries. Nazi zombies also sees the addition of a class system this time around. With the class system, players can choose between offense, control, medic, and support with each providing their abilities. Players can also equip mods as well. And unlike multiplayer, the loot boxes in zombies have a significant impact on how the game plays. Luckily, this mode is cooperative and single player. Even with these new additions, Nazi zombies at its core is still a wave-based game mode and retains all of the zombie killing weirdness players have come to love

Overall, Call of Duty WWII is another solid entry into the Call of Duty franchise. Unfortunately the Call of Duty fatigue has already begun to set in after only a weekend of playing. While the franchise did make some solid moves this year and the game play still feels good after all these years, there does not seem to be much the series can do to make significant changes and keep its core fans happy. At this point, fans and people familiar with the series know what to expect; There will continue to be fans of this franchise, those who will not indulge in it, and former fans like myself who will leave and come back every once in a while after some time off.

Rating: 8/10

youtube

Part of The Verge holiday 2018 gaming guide

Fighting Nazis is timely again, and yet Battlefield’s return to World War II feels ill-advised. Endless war has taken a toll on this series, and the generals need a new strategy.

I’ll start with some praise. Despite its flaws, Battlefield V is a breathtakingly cinematic game, and it has all of the relentless chaos that fans expect. In my experience playing a press preview of the game, there were only a few bugs (mostly funny ones, like corpses wobbling in midair), and the game retains the series’s recent level of polish. Control inputs feel tight and fluid, everything looks really nice, and the user interface is better than ever, which are all real accomplishments. Battlefield V is an unquestionably well-crafted object.

But as I was thinking about this review, I could not escape a strange feeling. I’ve now been playing Battlefield since 2002. I’ve spent thousands of hours playing these games: it’s a weird fact that’s difficult to reconcile with my personal identity as an adult. A past self decided to love these games, and now I’m cursed by my mastery of them. At this point, it’s hard to tell whether I’m playing for enjoyment or routine.

It’s at least comforting to play the same game over and over, as the movements become rote. It’s nice when the body and a task become the same thing. (I think this is how games like Battlefield become so abstract: after a while, you’re not holding a gun or fighting Nazis; you’re just responding to patterns and using your limbs effectively.) But this familiarity can also be alienating. A few hours into my multiplayer tour, as the rest of the world faded to the background, I had a genuine out-of-body experience. It was like watching a phantom version of a younger self charging an enemy flag. The sameness of it all made me feel like a passenger. My Battlefield exploits now read more like The Myth of Sisyphus than a medal of honor citation.

Despite my optimism for big changes to the series, developer DICE bluffed its hand. The game’s “Grand Operations” mode strings together multiday battles that are supposed to have continuity, but the consequences of winning or losing a match are minor, like adding a little bit of time to the next round. You have to squint to see how Grand Operations differs from the 16-year-old Conquest mode, and other modes like Breakthrough and Domination don’t offer meaningfully different experiences. Battlefield V’s multiplayer is essentially a lot of the same chaos: capture a point, drive a tank, fly a plane, die, repeat. Character customization and progression are tedious and don’t add much to the experience, though I wholeheartedly welcome EA’s confident turn toward inclusiveness. Ultimately, Battlefield is still rock-paper-scissors with explosions — something with exciting moments, but no sense of accomplishment. At least they’re really nice explosions.

As multiplayer shooters are rapidly evolving with the emergence of differentiated battle royale games, Battlefield is no longer an FPS bellwether. I’ve been playing another recently released WWII game, Post Scriptum, which is made by a team of people who, incidentally, started as Battlefield 2 modders. If Battlefield V is a glistening statue, Post Scriptum is a pile of rocks. It’s buggy, clunky, and only for people with the patience for an early access game that might never be finished. It’s also one of the most memorable shooters I’ve played in a while, with moments that I want to run to tell my friends about.

youtube

Post Scriptum is a shooter that lets you do things other than shooting, which I think ought to be the future of every multiplayer game with guns. Its clever trick is using the stakes and atmosphere of a war game to make the non-shooting activities feel genuinely rewarding. Lately, I’ve been obsessed with playing Post Scriptum as Euro Truck Simulator: World War II. As a logistics truck driver, I can ferry supplies to the front line while getting shot at, which lets me be a part of the deadly spectacle of a large-scale battle without killing people. Playing music out of my truck over the game’s local chat is met with laughs and appreciation. It’s something I simply can’t find in a Battlefield game. It’s weird. It’s fun. It makes me smile. I just wish it was made by the artists at DICE.

And then there’s Battlefield V’s single-player campaign, which really surprised me. The “War Stories” format, introduced in 2016’s Battlefield 1, is the smartest attempt at single-player storytelling in war games that I’ve seen. I just wish DICE had made more of them. There are only three war stories to play in Battlefield V, with a fourth coming in December. (Battlefield 1 had six.) Each story takes about an hour to complete, and while they’re hampered by forgettable action sequences, laughable NPC intelligence, and formulaic set pieces, the format still feels like something with great potential.

Instead of playing an untouchable hero who inexplicably massacres hordes of enemies like in so many other shooters, these short stories allow you to be a vulnerable part of war’s death machine, which feels more authentic than getting the costumes right. Battlefield V’s opening sequence achieves this feeling to stunning effect. When you start the game, you jump between characters in rapid succession, often taking the place of someone who just killed you and continuing the fight from their perspective. The opening whisks you from a nighttime raid to a desert ambush and huge aerial battle. I wish the entire game had been like this.

The War Stories format also cleverly echoes the intangible experience of hearing real war stories told, which often walk the line between real historical accounts and tales stretched tall by time. I was impressed by one Battlefield V story about two brothers from West Africa who were sent to France to fight for a colonial power whose land they had never seen. After native French soldiers took their guns and handed them shovels, they had to overcome the racism of their allies before being allowed to achieve glory in battle — only to see themselves erased from history in the story’s epilogue. It’s a tight and powerful single-player story that’s wrapped in the modern context of a veteran reflecting on his long-secret contribution to history. I wanted more like it.

The “Tirailleur” story could have been the model for a deeply felt war game that elevates neglected heroes into popular historical canon. We’ve had decades of interactive Clint Eastwood movies, and so I appreciate DICE’s attempt to break away from tried-and-true narratives, even if it’s clumsy about expressing them in gameplay. I just wish these stories were the centerpiece of a more complete game, not a context wrapper for multiplayer deathmatches.

If the next Battlefield game only has a collection of untold war stories, I don’t think I’ll miss its multiplayer spectacle. After 16 years, I’m ready for my own war story to end and for others to begin.

Battlefield V is available now on PS4, PC, and Xbox One.

Activision line-up tijdens E3

Activision is dit jaar aanwezig op de Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) met het wereldwijde debuut van nieuwe titels voor toonaangevende franchises uit de industrie. Vanaf 13 juni 2017 krijgen bezoekers niet alleen de kans om in het LA Convention Center voor het eerst de multiplayer van Call of Duty: WWII te spelen, ook kunnen ze kennis maken met de nieuwe verhaallijn en activiteiten uit Destiny 2. Daarnaast kunnen nieuwe en oude fans kennismaken met de nieuwste versie van de geliefde Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy.

“De interactieve entertainmentindustrie krijgt een steeds prominentere plek in onze populaire culturen. Mensen kijken niet alleen meer naar releases op televisie of bijvoorbeeld in bioscopen, maar steeds vaker naar wat er te gebeuren staat op E3,” vertelt Eric Hirshberg, CEO van Activision. “Wij zijn natuurlijk trots om twee van de meest geanticipeerde games van dit jaar, Call of Duty: WWII en Destiny 2, aan het publiek te kunnen onthullen. Beide games zijn dan ook te spelen zijn op E3. We hebben hart en ziel gegeven om deze games tot een succes te maken en kunnen niet wachten om het resultaat met de fans te delen!”

Call of Duty: WWII Call of Duty: WWII markeert de terugkeer naar de bekende snelle actie van Call of Duty. Tijdens E3 2017 vieren we de wereldwijde bekendmaking van de nieuwste multiplayer. Call of Duty: WWII is ontwikkeld door Sledgehammer Games en speelt zich af op bekende Europese locaties tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De game is inclusief nieuwe multiplayer modes, features en gameplay innovaties.

Spelers kunnen deelnemen aan de strijd door één van de vijf Tweede Wereldoorlog Divisions te kiezen, een geheel nieuwe manier om je voor te bereiden op je multiplayer carrière. Bij de Airborne Division ben je de eerste linie tijdens het gevecht, waar alles draait om snelheid en geruisloos te werk gaan. Kies je voor de Mountain Division dan moet je focus als scherpschutter precies en dodelijk zijn. Bij de Infantry Division ben je onderdeel van de voorhoede en bij de Armored Division ga je op pad met het grote geschut. Ten slotte kun je kiezen voor de Expeditionary Force, die tactische granaten in de strijd gooien. Naast de multiplayer hands-on op E3 krijgen spelers ook de mogelijkheid om de War Mode te spelen, die is ontwikkeld in samenwerking met Raven Software. Hierbij draait het om op verhaal-gebaseerde team gevechten tussen Allied en Axis soldaten, waarbij je je strategische skills kunt ontwikkelen.

Een nieuw onderdeel van de Call of Duty: WWII multiplayer is Headquarters, het vernieuwde ecosysteem van de Call of Duty Multiplayer. Dit geeft de community nieuwe manieren om met elkaar in contact te komen en samen- of tegen elkaar te spelen.

Pre-orders bij deelnemende verkooppunten geven toegang tot de Call of Duty: WWII Private Bèta, die later dit jaar beschikbaar zal zijn voor PlayStation4. Tijdens E3 hebben spelers voor het eerst de kans om de nieuwe multiplayer te ervaren bij Activision stand #1001 in de South Hall of bij PlayStation stand #4322 in de West Hall.

Destiny Na de wereldwijde gameplay première van Destiny 2 afgelopen mei, presenteren Activision en Bungie Destiny 2 met hands-on mogelijkheden de bezoekers. Spelers kunnen hier de zowel nieuwe story campaign spelen en de gameplay ervaren van de competitieve en coöperatieve multiplayer mode. Ook is de nieuwste Guardian subclass ‘Arcstrider Hunter’ speelbaar, die de ‘super’ ability heeft medewerkers van het Arc op te roepen voor vurige battles. Bezoekers worden uitgenodigd om Destiny 2 op PS4 Pro te spelen op Activision stand #1001 in de South Hall, PlayStation stand #4322 in de West Hall of op PC op NVIDIA stand #5230 in de West Hall.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Crash is terug, daarom rolt Activision de oranje loper uit op E3! Het meest geliefde buideldier van de gamewereld maakt zijn terugkeer op E3, waar spelers zich kunnen buigen over de nieuwe HD levels van de geremasterde Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Tijdens de show worden de nieuwste innovaties van de franchise bekendgemaakt en kunnen spelers voor het eerst de gameplay ervaren bij de N. Sane Crash Experience in de South Hall lobby. Daarnaast kunnen er leuke foto’s worden gemaakt en zijn er leuke prijzen.

De Activision’s E3 2017 agenda:

Call of Duty: WWII Call of Duty: WWII wordt ontwikkeld door Sledgehammer Games en keert terug naar zijn roots. Dit doen zij met een filmische ervaring, waarbij de onvergetelijke heldhaftigheid van de soldaten in de allesbepalende Tweede Wereldoorlog prachtig in beeld wordt gebracht. Call of Duty: WWII wordt op 3 november uitgebracht voor PlayStation 4, Xbox One en PC. Er is nog geen PEGI-rating beschikbaar.

Destiny 2 Destiny 2 wordt uitgebracht door Activision en Bungie. In de meeslepende story campaign van Destiny 2 ligt de laatste veilige stad op aarde in puin. De stad is overmeesterd door Dominus Ghaul en zijn elite leger, de Red Legion. Elke speler creëert zijn eigen personage, een Guardian, beschermer van de mensheid. Als Guardian in Destiny 2 moeten spelers nieuwe abilities en wapens onder de duim krijgen om de stad terug te winnen. Nieuwe en bestaande spelers komen in aanraking met nieuwe gameplay innovaties waaronder een dramatische story campaign, nieuwe bestemmingen, “Guided Games” die spelers verbindt en meer. Destiny 2 zal op PlayStation4 en op Xbox One beschikbaar zijn met extra, tijdelijke exclusieve* content (een PlayStationPlus of Xbox Live Gold abonnement is vereist voor deze features).

Activision Showcases Blockbuster Lineup at Electronic Entertainment Expo 2017

From Activision

Worldwide Reveal of Multiplayer and First Multiplayer Gameplay Premiere for Highly-Anticipated Call of Duty: WWII

Destiny 2 Presents All-New, Action-Packed Story and Hands-On with Cooperative and Competitive Multiplayer Activities for a Global Community

Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane Trilogy Remastered in HD for the New Generation and Nostalgic Fans

SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Activision is set to kick off this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) with global debuts from the industry’s leading franchises. Beginning Tuesday, June 13, at the LA Convention Center, attendees will experience the first gameplay premiere of Call of Duty®: WWII multiplayer, the new character-driven story and activities of Destiny 2, and the reimagined and beloved Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane Trilogy.

“Some of the most talked about and highly anticipated entertainment experiences of the year aren’t playing at your local movie theater, inside a stadium or on the airwaves; they are happening at E3, as interactive entertainment takes center stage of pop culture,” said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision. “And we are thrilled to be front and center with two of the most hotly anticipated games of the year, Call of Duty: WWII and Destiny 2, both of which will be playable at E3. We’ve been pouring our hearts and souls into these games and we can’t wait for our fans to get their hands on them!”

Call of Duty: WWII marks a return to the fast action, grounded roots of Call of Duty®. E3 2017 celebrates the world reveal of the all-new multiplayer. Developed by Sledgehammer Games, Call of Duty: WWII offers a host of new Multiplayer modes, features and gameplay innovations set in iconic World War II locations in the European theater of war.

Players will enlist in the conflict by selecting from five iconic World War II Divisions, in a fundamentally new way to invest in your multiplayer career. Join the Airborne Division, the first to the fight, where you move fast and stay quiet; the Mountain Division, where a sharp shooter focus is precise and deadly; the Infantry Division as the tip of the spear; the Armored Division, which brings the heaviest firepower; or the Expeditionary Force who is packing heat with incendiary shells. In addition to the core Multiplayer experience available for hands-on gameplay at E3, players will also play War Mode, developed in partnership with Raven Software, a narrative-based mode pitting Allied versus Axis soldiers in team-driven battles for key strategic objectives.

Call of Duty: WWII multiplayer also features Headquarters, a franchise first reimagining of the Call of Duty Multiplayer ecosystem, giving the community entirely new ways to connect, compete and engage.

Call of Duty: WWII pre-orders at participating retailers include access to the Private Beta, available first on PlayStation®4, scheduled for later this year. At E3, players can get their first PS4 Pro hands-on experience with the new Multiplayer at the Activision booth #1001 in the South Hall and in the PlayStation booth #4322 in the West Hall.

Following the epic, global Destiny 2 Gameplay Premiere which took place in May, Activision and Bungie will showcase Destiny 2, providing an array of hands-on experiences for attendees where they can play the all-new story campaign as well as competitive, and cooperative multiplayer gameplay. In addition, the playable debut of a brand-new Guardian subclass, the Arcstrider Hunter, will be available, whose “super” ability is to summon an Arc-empowered staff to be used for close-quarters melee combat. Attendees are invited to play Destiny 2 on PS4 Pro in the Activision booth #1001 in the South Hall and PlayStation’s booth #4322 in the West Hall, and on PC in NVIDIA’s booth #5230 in the West Hall.

Crash is back, as Activision is rolling out the orange carpet at E3! The iconic marsupial of gaming will make his appearance at E3 where players can play new levels in HD from the remastered Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane Trilogy. More innovations to the franchise will be announced at the show, and players can experience the fun first-hand by visiting the N.

Call of Duty: WWII Preorder Guide

[ad_1]

The Call of Duty franchise returns to its roots with the aptly named Call of Duty: World War II. There will be no double jumping, wall running, or space walking here. Sledgehammer Games is instead focusing on a more realistic, boots-on-the-ground gameplay – except, of course, for the Zombie-driven co-op story mode.

The release date is set for November 3 of this year, but you can put down…
