GG wins E3 with great updates.

VR needs to hit mainstream before Nintendo moves on it Reggie says

That must be why they pushed the NX back to 2017!  

Ummm... this is what it looks like. I think it's gonna be just fine...

That Hyrule alphabet translation is pretty sweet.  Love the idea that everything in the dungeons is powered by some kind of coding language.  Begs the question why the Sheikah felt the need to hide away stuff in dungeons of their own design?  Ganondorf apocalyps!

Ehh...  It'll do I suppose.

It looks nice, but just a bit 'off' to me.  Possibly something about the parallax scrolling that grates with me or perhaps it's just me being nostalgic.

I really can't stand that suit.

I was just re-reading your Zelda recap inf on GAF. I already read it in our forum, but wanted to go in depth. I love that a lot of the mechanics were used in past zelda games, but usually in dungeons and they've just gone to town with everything. Sounds like the open world is going to be like a massive playground.

A few weeks ago, Eurogamer received an invitation to visit Naughty America, a long-standing subscription-based porn company and distributor, at their booth on the E3 show floor. For reasons unknown the invite was addressed to me specifically, but I'm sitting out this expo, so who better to take up the mantle of Eurogamer's premiere porn correspondant than our own Chris 'like a deer caught in headlights' Bratt?

She's also a lesbian BTW.

Who the heck at Naughty America is watching British gaming TV programmes?

This is definitely the first time we’ve created a game this large. We didn’t know where to start. So it happened to be there was a team that was working on creating a larger world. And this team was a group of younger developers. So we had our old programmers from the Zelda team take a step aside, so we could introduce this new group of programmers. But then these new, younger developers had no clue about how past Zeldas had been created. The group of new staff actually would ask us, like ‘Well I know that it’s been done, traditionally, in other Zelda titles, but why does it have to be that way?’ And among those questions there were some I just couldn’t answer, that I didn’t know the answer to myself. That was because I just took those things on as a tradition, and I didn’t really know why the tradition existed. When you think about it, maybe those things really didn’t need to be there in the modern world, those traditions. So I started destroying these traditions I’d inherited in the series one by one. But it’s a process that takes a lot of time. And because we were destroying everything we’d done in the past, and rebuild new ideas from the ground up, that was the hardest thing, and it’s really taken a long time to create the thing I most wanted to create

Along with Splatoon and the staff changes, Miyamoto stepping back etc. It really sounds like Nintendo is going through a process of moving towards a new generation of developers. Exciting times because they still got the old masters on hand to help.

^ Yeah, she relies a bit too much on an air of sexual availability to my liking.  Ellie Gibson, their former premier female contributor was genuinely funny and could probably drink everyone else of the EG staff under the table.  

I hate Ellie Gibson because of her Endless Ocean reviews.
