:focus state - a show about tech and creativity‪.‬ :focus state

This week Ryan is joined by Nathan Drake (@MelonHawk on Twitch) to talk all about E3 2019.

We run through all the shows, including Google Stadia and their price point and discuss how Stadia will not really shine until 2020, although Ryan immediately pre-ordered.

We talk EA Play, Microsoft and their Project Scarlett, what next get really means, Keanu Reeves and Cyberpunk 2077, Blair Witch Project and Ryan’s love for Flight Simulator, as well as Bethesda and their Orion platform. We talk the small indies from Kinda Funny, Limited Run, as well as Devolved, and the PC and VR Gaming shows.

Then we dive into Ubisoft, Watch Dogs: Legion and the uPlay+ service, Square Enix, who finally announce a release date for what will now be a huge Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Then Nintendo and Animal Crossing, Marvel Ultimate Alliance and more.

We take a look back 10 years ago at E3 2009, talk out most anticipated games and our biggest takeaways from this current generation of gaming, what the next will hold and if a few of these companies still have a few tricks up their sleeve,
