Battlefield Hardline Shows off Bank Robbing During E3

Battlefield Hardline was leaked a few weeks ago, but none of the information was confirmed until EA's E3 press conference on Monday afternoon.

EA showed off Hardline during the conference and showcased some of the team-based bank robbing. The gameplay footage showed a team of robbers trying to escape with their loot while another team of police and swat chased them down.

The trailer showed a variety of vehicles and weapons, including a Louisville Slugger that could be used on enemies. Additionally,  players in the demo made use of Parachutes and zip-lines while escaping the police.

Battlefield Hardline is now available in beta for the Playstation 4.

 

The trailer looked pretty great. I had a lot of fun with Battlefield 4 (when it was working), so I could definitely get behind some Cops and Robbers in the style of Battlefield.

Rise of the Tomb Raider Revealed at E3 2014

Crystal Dynamics revealed the sequel to Tomb Raider during the Microsoft E3 Press Conference.

Rise of the Tomb Raider was revealed as a Holiday 2015 title that follows Lara Croft after the events of the Tomb Raider reboot. The trailer shows a stressed-out Lara during a therapy session, as well as clips of Lara exploring new locales.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is supposed to take Lara Croft to many different hostile environments around the world. During this journey, she will climb rocks and murder enemies with her trusty bow and arrow. 

I absolutely loved the Tomb Raider reboot, and I can't wait to go back to killing with her bow and arrow. Plus, the trailer showed Lara being chased by a bear. Hopefully, this means more hunting.

New Witcher III Gameplay Shows Geralt's Murdering Ability

Microsoft spent their entire 90-minute E3 press conference showing off games, games, and more games. Included in that presentation was new footage from The Witcher III: Wild Hunt.

This gameplay footage showed off the world of The Witcher III, as well as the updated inventory system. Geralt is hunting a Griffin as part of his Witcher duties, which culminates in a battle with the monster.

The Witcher III seems to be in fine form and well on its way to a successful release.


The Witcher III looks like it will expand on the previous combat and storytelling from the first two games, but I'm more excited about the amount of violence. Geralt straight up chopped a dude in half like Kate Beckinsale did in Underworld. I can't wait for this game.

Assassins Creed Unity Reveals Story-Based Cooperative Play

Ubisoft has revealed new information about Assassins Creed Unity during the Microsoft Presser at E3 2014.

Unity is set in France during the French Revolution, but that is not the truly important news. What's important is the fact that Assassins Creed Unity will feature four-player cooperative play during the campaign. The gameplay demo showed off four players controlling different assassins in an effort to infiltrate a castle and murder some aristocrat. 

The demo ended with a fancy example of Unity's graphical capability when the French villain was beheaded by the peasants. 

Assassins Creed had been reaching a point of lower returns until Black Flag was released last year. I do think that the co-op in Unity looks fantastic, and I can't wait for the French Revolution setting. Hopefully, Unity fulfills the promise.
