Well the first day has come and gone, and there's been one hell of a lot of new information to take in! Tell us about what games have impressed you most:

http://www.e3expo.com/

For me, the stand out games based on what we've seen so far are:

Assassin's Creed - Beautiful. Oh sorry, I was talking about Jade Raymond

The game looks amazing too.

Resident Evil 5 - Yes. Yes please.

Guitar Hero III - Slash as a boss character! And playable Welcome To The Jungle!

Project Gotham Racing 4 - M0t3rb1!<3s!!!!

The Bourne Conspiracy - Really surprised me to see how good this looks. Looks like it might be finally a great movie to game translation.

Metal Gear Solid 4 -

I'm looking forward to the slew of Wii games (partially because that's the only new gen console that I have)...

Wii Fit sounds like it will be really fun. And the ballance board sounds interesting... I'm not sure it will be anything I play around other people though...

And they FINALLY gave us a date on Super Smash Bros. Brawl, yay!

The only game I'm really looking forward to is RE5. I haven't kept up with games at all the past few months, but I still like the RE games. I liked 4 a lot, but I hope 5 isn't so much action.

Assassin's Creed looks cool too. I'm glad it's coming out for 360, since that's all I have.

MGS4 looks cool, but I don't have a PS3. Plus, I kinda get into the MGS games but I start to lose interest fast. Though that happens with A LOT of games I play, I still haven't gone back to MGS3 since it came out.

Call of Duty 4. Maybe. I'm not a huge fan of FPS, but I have fun from time to time.

Army of Two - I'm gonna keep my eye on this one.

Heavenly sword looks pretty coo. Call of Duty 4 looks tight as hell, about time they did some modern warfare rather then WWII. MGS titles never disappoint so im really lookin foward to MGS4.

MGS4!!! Halo3! RE5! Super smash bros. brawl! Guitar Hero III!! Ratchet & Clank Future!! Can't wait to see new FFXIII trailers!

Those are probably some of my favorite franchises and their next releases are looking so bad ass.

Plus there's also the new kill zone, call of duty, and assassin's creed, etc. They seem to really stepping it up. It looks like the next-gen systems are finally showing what they can do!

I wish I had the money to get back into gaming :/ I can't even afford to get any next-gen systems right now... when I do I'll probably be getting a ps3 especially since they're cutting down the price!!!

Just saw the echochrome trailer, now that's the psp's killer app! I must have it!

I enjoyed the trailers for Killzone 2 and Resident Evil 5. At least Sony got it right for Killzone 2 byshowing the actual gameplay footage. Resident Evil 5 looks similiar to Resident Evil 4. Looking foward to Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy XIII.

Tuffty · « **Reply #8 on:** July 12, 2007, 02:49:30 PM »

I completely forgot about FFXIII!!! I take it a new trailer is intended to be shown? Some other highlights:

Silent Hill V - Interesting thing about this is that it isn't being developed by Team Silent. So just what is the supposed project they are working on?

Heavenly Sword - I wasn't actually that impressed when I saw it last year, but now it looks pretty good. The facial motion capture rocks.

Lost Odyssey - Looks like a modern day JRPG with next-gen graphics, but who said that was a bad thing?

I don't have any next-gen consoles but if I do, I'll be pretty broke

ToT I wish i could go to E3!!! The games are looking better and more fun. I didn't know about the Super Smash Brawl release date...so I'm pretty psyched about that! Plus i heard they announced mario kart wii but i dunno when thats coming up

. Halo 3 looks exciting to play...sadly i have no xbox360 when it comes out haha.

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO RE D:

Assassin's Creed looks absolutely AMAZING though.

JTRIX · « **Reply #11 on:** July 13, 2007, 02:30:20 AM »

and for those who are GT fans, remember the GT5 on PS3

StreakInTheSky · « **Reply #12 on:** July 13, 2007, 03:28:23 AM »

Just saw a clip of the game Rock Band, and I'm pretty excited about it, I love the concept and was hoping a game like it would be released since I played the first guitar hero.

arun.yothin · « **Reply #14 on:** July 13, 2007, 04:24:30 AM »

whoa shit. That game looks cool. Probably won't have the money to get a PSP though.

Tuffty · « **Reply #15 on:** July 13, 2007, 01:08:21 PM »

Echochrome looks sweet! All the different puzzles you can get

That and FF Tactics look like the only good PSP games for this year so far

EDIT

Oh and I forgot about GOW : Chains Of Olympus

JTRIX · « **Reply #16 on:** July 13, 2007, 01:20:35 PM »

so Echochrome is something like Lemmings but you have to rotate the puzzles around to guide the mini-person through the maze. lol... good concept and looks fun + hard to play

No price cut or 80GB model for Euro PS3 console

Quote from: BBC News

Sony is not cutting the price of the PlayStation 3 in Europe, but will offer free games and accessories instead. There is also no word of plans for an 80GB version of the console in Europe.

Last week Sony said it would drop the US price of the 60GB PS3 by $100 (£50), and introduced a new 80GB version at the original price of $599 (£300). In Europe gamers will get a "starter pack" at an unchanged price of £425 for the 60GB machine, with two games and two controllers included. The new pack was announced at the E3 games conference in Santa Monica, in California. Sony says it is offering gamers £115 worth of added games and controller, for no extra charge. But the firm could face criticism from gamers for deciding not to reduce the price of the 60GB PS3 and not announcing the 80GB machine.

Earlier this week, Jack Tretton, chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment America, said he thought the US price cut would at least "double" the sales of PS3 in the country. But in an interview with games website Gamesindustry.biz, David Reeves, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, revealed that once the stock of 60GB machines was sold out in the US - probably by the end of July - the model would no longer be sold. That would mean that US gamers would once again have to pay $599 for a full-spec console with features such as wi-fi, not available on the cheaper 20GB model.

In the UK, the PlayStation 3 remains £125 more expensive than the equivalent Xbox 360 bundle of console and games and £225 more expensive than the Nintendo Wii with two games.

Honestly, did Europe beat Sony when it was younger or something? Or slept with Sony's wife?

StreakInTheSky · « **Reply #18 on:** July 13, 2007, 06:47:37 PM »

lol man SCEE sucks big time. Atleast you get free shit that you probably were going to buy anyways :/

I think discontinuing the 60gb machine and replacing it with the 80gb for the same $599 is fucking retarded and is just making the same mistake twice. Not many people wanted to spend that money on the 60gb and they're not going to do it for another 20gb and a copy of motorstorm... Let's hope David Reeves has no idea wtf he's talking about -___-

I find it amusing that Microsoft can negotiate with Disney to offer movies through X-Box Live before Sony can do the same with their own internal film division.
