No Cammy? How Scammy!
Hey of us, and welcome to Whatcha Been Playing? This weekend you discover me all typed out, as myself and the group have been busy protecting the Tokyo Game Show occasion, which occurred in Japan within the latter half of the week. Between streams for Nintendo, PlayStation, Capcom, Square, and Xbox, there’s been a variety of new trailers, bulletins, and updates. I hope that you simply’ve seen one thing superb and enjoyable this week amongst the entire writer wares winging our approach in 2023.
I used to be happy to be bombarded with data relating to Capcom’s Street Fighter 6, which delivered not one, two, or three, however 4 character reveals, information on its single and multiplayer modes, and early information of a closed beta. I’ve to confess, I used to be anticipating that we’d see Cammy this week, which was to not be, however we obtained Construction Site Ken, who apparently places a constructing collectively by Tatsu-ing the supplies. Seems a bit reckless, however he’s a fake millionaire online game character and I’m just a few real-life web site dude, so who actually is aware of what’s occurring?
Tekken the Piss
Alongside Ken’s skyscraper chicanery, this weird fall-based non-E3 has additionally introduced us a slew of updates. We obtained a (surprisingly topical) title and launch date for Link’s newest journey; not one, not two, however three Like a Dragon reveals; a brand new Fire Emblem; and a few beautiful gameplay footage from Bandai Namco’s Tekken 8, which is little question stressing out tourney organizers the world over with its “current-gen only” dictum. And this was simply the tip of the iceberg it what proved to be a surprisingly packed week of stories.
E3 was once two weeks in early summer season, and now it’s merely 52 weeks a yr. Spreading all of it slightly too thinly? Most definitely. But, regardless, it’s good that all of us get the chance to identify a number of new titles so as to add to the ol’ wishlist. Because, if there’s one factor no one studying this has, it’s a prolonged backlog of 30-hour adventures already desperately pining for our consideration.
