The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) is always a good time and this year looks like it will be pretty intense. I'll be headed out to the big show, traveling along with Chunx and SeanManly from SimHQ Motorsports, to scour the floor for items of interest to our sim community.

Although most of the floor will be dedicated to "arcade" games and mobile entertainment items, there are more than a few items I'm looking forward to learning more about:
  • Bohemia Interactive will have a booth and I'll be stopping by to get some more info on Arma III.
  • We've already got a date with the folks from 505 Games to talk more about TAKEDOWN: Red Sabre
  • EA has already announced that Battlefield 4 will be available on the Xbox One - hoping to get some more info about this title and the series.
  • I'll check with the folks from Activision to see more of Call of Duty: Ghosts.
The two new consoles, Xbox One and PS4 will be big attention hogs at the show, of course, showing off their cutting edge hardware and exclusive titles. I hope to get some hands on both consoles, although I expect there will be quite a line at those particular booths!

E3 has more than games, of course.
  • Oculus VR will be showing us their Oculus Rift virtual reality headset that just might take immersion to the next level.
  • We'll also be talking with Playseat who makes gaming chairs. The bulk of their product line is for the racing genre, but I'm still looking forward to checking it out.

Starting June 11, watch for live reports here on the forums and on Twitter by following us on @SimHQ.

There are currently 208 exhibitors in all planning to have booths at the show - who knows who else we'll run into?

Bohemia has posted some new screenshots of Arma III: http://www.bistudio.com/english/home/news/projects/378-e3-2013-12-new-screenshots-for-arma-3

They've also confirmed they'll be showing DayZ and "a brand new game in the Take On series" at E3.

I'm liking the new trend in "open world" gaming... started (FOR ME) with RDR, then FC3, etc etc... and now Witcher 3. I like them. wink

Something a few of these games will use but they didnt outright say it.

REAL TIME DAY PROGRESSION, AND PERSISTENT WORLDS.

Meaning if you play 24 hours, you'll play through a realistically modeled sunrise, day time, sunset, night time.

If you log off during a sun set, your saved game continues to progress in the cloud, and log in again 3 hours later, it will be night.

Ya Skate... that's all cool and all, if it works... but IMO there trying to be to damn technical, and relying on outside conditions, I just want great games... all in one disk or download, don't need all that cloud BS. again IMO.

Glad to see mention of SW:BF, although it doesn't look like it will be a launch title. That may actually be a good thing, no way I'm getting this thing at launch, and I'd hate to miss out on MP.

Any word yet on if the new Xbox will support pc racing wheels? If I can use my G27, that would make a big difference.
