    Wow the event was terrific and raised over $1m for charity. Some of those runs were incredible & I enjoyed seeing some of the game designers get involved as well, whether through commentary or fielding questions about their game. The commentaries are good as well, explaining tips on the games or how certain tricks work, even if the quality of the commentators can be a bit hit or miss at times. Some of those runs are definitely worth a recap via YouTube.

    That's brilliant news that it's coming back. I'm a little disappointed that it looks to pitching it to an even younger audience than before, but it's always nice to see an 'old friend'. Like others have said, A-Double is a great choice as a replacement to voice DM.

    I absolutely loved the 1st two games and, like many others, have been waiting for the third game to follow up on the story that had left me with so much intrigue. Plus, it's one of the few games in which my other half got into and enjoyed as well! She'll be delighted to know it's now out and a game we can actually enjoy together.

     

    Pleased to see so e good first impressions. Does anyone know if this is out on PS4 yet or whether a release date has been set?

    It reminds me a little of the Volleyball game included within one of the Mario Party GameCube games. It's a fun concept although I do wonder how much depth there would have been. The wrestling aspect intrigues me, although I'd need to be convinced that Nintendo characters would be suited to more serious grappling as opposed to the much more cartoony and exaggerated battling in Smash Bros. I enjoyed Beach Spikers on GC, but again there's only so much depth to a Volleyball game.

     

    Nice find though, and it's been interesting to read about these concepts that have been shown to Nintendohat have come about recently.

    For me, of the more recent generations, two TV tie-ins were utter tripe: Lost and Prison Break.

     

    I'd read the reviews and knew they weren't very good, but thought I'd find enjoyment as a fan of the shows. Needless to say, there was no pleasure to be found here! Thank goodness they were 2nd hand and cost me less than a tanner altogether. Lesson learned!

    The missions are great fun especially in co-op. Me and @Zechs Merquise have spent quite a bit of time going through them.

     

    The thing is with the missions is that they appear a little overwhelming at first but when you figure out a strategy and beat the mission it's so satisfying!

     

    I agree that the missions are excellent! I finished the main game quicker than I'd've liked, although it was great fun while it lasted. I didn't expect to spend much time on the missions, but I was hooked! Clearing each stage is tough as well & is so rewarding when you finally manage to crack it!

    I really need to stop forgetting this thread, but it's all ready the final day. I'm so sorry guys, been too busy watching the thing!

     

    Reggie appeared in a video before Smash finals started, giggled when he asked for "no Johns"

     

    I saw that too. Good of Nintendo to put out a thank you message to the players. Daft question though, what is the "no Johns" reference? To do with the E3 tournament?

     

    I managed the fit in some of Evo 2014 and it was sensational! The BlazBlue final in particular I was on the edge of my seat!

    Did they reveal any new first party 3DS games yesterday? Apart from more info about Pokemon I'm struggling to think of anything else?

     

    Erm, I can't think of anything off-hand. The Digital Event was virtually solely focused on WiiU. The only 3DS games I can recall are Pokemon and Smash Bros. Hopefully that means there are more surprises in store as the show continues...

    Everything's been good for me so far without anything mind-blowing. Microsoft showed off a large number of games - finally someone understands what you need to do at these press conferences!

     

    Sony up next. Looking forward to seeing what they show in the morning. At the moment Nintendo need a strong performance, although the opportunity is still there to really put an impression in.

    Does anyone have 'Deadlight'? It was on the Games for Gold promotion recently. I've got all of the achievements except the one that relies on having a friend that has been on the leaderboard for the game, and unfortunately none of my friends have it. Would be grateful if there's anyone that can help me out with this one!

    So how did everyone do in the European/World tournaments?

     

    I got a silver in the European (ranked 597). The person that came 1st scored as little as 7m!? Amazing! Achieved a Bronze trophy in the World Tournament (964th with score of 43).

     

    Well done on getting a gold trophy @Glen\-i!

    To me it was a show of support from Europe that Austria won, with the amount of furore from countries such as Russia about the singer. It was a good song, although I think there were a few that were much better. While there was still much biased voting, I thought there was less this year than in previous (there have been examples in this thread already). Plus the upper half of the table had the right songs.

     

    Shame the UK entry didn't get higher, but I think Molly did an excellent job with a good song and should be proud of that.

    Ok so the video doesn't reveal a huge amount, but already I'm excited by the prospect of a new Ace Attorney game! I'm a little disappointed that as yet they've decided not to continue the relationship between Phoenix and Maya, but a new setting means Capcom are free to do as they see fit, and I for one can't wait!

    The 32/64-bit era for me as well. Yes I look at it fondly as it's the first generation where I bought my own console and played games throughout. It felt like the start of something new, with developers trying new genres and new ideas. The SNES had refined everything starred in the 8-bit era and so this was suddenly new and exciting with 3D, console first-person shooters that started competing with those on PC, CDs, the rumble pack and analogue stick, etc.

     

    Yes if we play those games now, the majority have been improved upon and refined since, but this era still holds a great place in my gaming experiences.
