EA Gives us a little something for everyone...except NHL fans.

I want to see them do justice for Star Wars, and show some IPs as well at what BioWare has to show.

The Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare kicks off the show.It changes the classic tower defense game into a multiplayer third person action game. Creative assuredly, but the focus on online multiplayer is a huge deterrent.. I'm more interested in Plants vs Zombies 2. Also how did the plants get out of my garden and walk around. I surely didn't plant them. The plants have become self aware lol. This actually does like it could be a lot of fun. And Peggle 2 was announced. Pop gets 1 point. Though they didn't mention which platforms this game will be on. IGN's Andrew Goldfarb reports: Garden Warfare will be available on X BOX One and 360, but I feel like this will end up on every platform imaginable.

TitanFall. We just saw this...Not an exclusive it turns out. It will be available on 360, X Box One, and PC. This almost makes me want to take half a point away from Microsoft, but I won't. 0 Points

All games shown from this point will use new engines.
OMG Star Wars Battlefron on Frostbite! 1 Point!!

Racing game? Burnout or Need For Speed? It's a new Need For Speed. The only one I liked was Need For Speed the Run. They are touting online features. Personally I prefer playing games in person with people. There is also Tablet integration. (Woopdedoo Basil). There is an intersting twist where single player races can transform into multiplayer races seamlessly 0.5Points. Also apparently there is a Need For Speed Movie they brought out the director.

Bioware: Dragon Age Inquisition! I loved the first two Dragon Age games, They were probably the most enjoyable High Fantasy RPG's I have ever played and it appears player choices will have even more of an impact than before, and Morgan returns! the games is set for a fall 2014 release. 1 point!

Uhoh. Mr Sports just walked on stage...Show NHL it's the only one I care about. There giving the NBA another go after cancelling the last 3 attempts. Who wants to take bets if this will actually come out. The NBA2K series has been dominating for years so much so the 2011 edition made G4's top 100 games of all time. They bring out a basketball player. 0 Points I don't have faith EA will release actually release a Basketball game.

Madden ok...Someone will have to tell me if what they talked about are big deals. It looks great. I will give it that. .25 points because we know this game comes out every year.
FIFA. See the Madden topic for all of the same reasons. .25 points
They bring out Drake...to talk about FIFA. Pointless celebrity appearance...I understand that these games are popular, but my care level couldn't be lower. I almost feel like you get ripped off if you buy this game every year, because the updates are often minimal. This year looks like a year to buy though.
They are not showing the crowd. These cheers are more fake than a pre tapped wrestling show.

More celebrates UFC voice, and a couple of fighters... Another franchise I don't care about. I don't'like the UFC president's attitude...0.25 points Also celebrities are not special if you bring them out for every other game. You have had 7 already. No NHL... -.25 points

Battlefield 4....Again just we just saw this at Microsoft. 64 player multiplayer. The graphics look like they are taking a hit when supporting this many players. The scope of the level is impressive.  Again with the tablet integration...A building the players were fighting in collapses due to artillery fire. .75 points Impressive, but not interested.

Mirror's Edge 2. The sequel to the cult classic fee running park our game. Is shown in a final tease. 1 point


Final Score 4.75 Since they hold the rights to Star Wars it would have been nice to get a better idea of their plans for the franchise
+Dragon Age Inquisition
+Garden Warfare looks a lot of fun
+It's a nice gesture to the fans to make a sequel to Mirror's Edge
+A bit of something for everyone
-No NHL
-Battlefront was the only Star Wars Game.
-Too many celebrities.
