Cool stuff out of the Microsoft/Xbox announcements - can't wait till tomorrow for the Sony reveals.

Kinect is a very stupid name.....

Why not stick with Natal?

Saw the Microsoft conference. No huge surprises but some good stuff.

My thoughts during the show were something like this:

Call of Duty - Looks like Call of Duty.

MG Rising - Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! ZAN-DATSU! o_o CUT EVERYTHING! HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT! Looks absolutely amazing! Way beyond my expectations (I was kinda down on it to be honest). Slicing dudes looks disgustingly awesome. I'm guessing it's Move Natal compatible?

I do wonder why Raiden is a cyborg ninja again. Is it Raiden? He looks slightly cooler/buff than MGS4 though.

Gears - zzzzzzzzzzz Mutating enemies or something? I didn't get that. Maybe they'll finally fix the cutscene framerate problems that annoy me in gears.

Fable 3 - Terrible... Not sure If I want this and I was a big fan of Fable.

Reach - Yup that's Halo, looks pretty fun (I was watching with a friend who is a Halo nut, he was totally drooling over it though

).

Kinect - Some decent stuff I guess, don't know if I would ever use any of it. I'm sure the soccer moms will love it. Seems like there is a noticeable delay in the motion recognition.

ESPN - Bastards, don't remind me of college football last year... The memories still make me sick. Great deal if it really is free.

Slim 360 - I was totally gonna get one if it came out at $200 like the arcade but in hindsight that was kinda unrealistic. :p

Man, sucks I gotta work tomorrow so I won't be able to see much of Nintando's or any of Sony's conference.

that metal gear looks awesome but somehow too far away for my idea of a tactical, sneaky espionage game... however i suppose is not everything about cutting the fucking world

I just really hope this is real... Guess we'll see at the Nintendo conference tomorrow.

I can't even estimate how many hours/days I spent playing that game as a kid...

Reminds me of when I was babysitting for a couple kids and one was playing Goldeneye. They didn't want to go to bed so I told them if they could beat me they could stay up longer and if I won they had to go to bed. I figured it would be a piece of cake since I was pretty damn great at Goldeneye back in the day.

Well turns out the kid was some kind of savant or something and kicked my ass.

Best thing to come out of the Microsoft conference is the confirmation of a new Castlevania title for the Arcade. Titled, Harmony of Despair it's a multiplayer game which brings together Alucard, Soma Cruz and my gal, Shanoa!

I'm watching the Nintendo Display live now, and I'm just glad I ordered the G4 channel today.

I dont think I closed my mouth the whole time that the New Zelda game was on.

Tuffty · « **Reply #67 on:** June 15, 2010, 07:28:26 PM »

Nintendo press conference sounds pretty crazy. I'm really looking forward to watching the videos of new Donkey Kong, new Goldeneye, the 3DS games, new Golden Sun, Warren Spector's game on Mickey Mouse, new Zelda!! Jesus Christ!

Perhaps the more interesting original IP I've seen so far is Child of Eden a spiritual successor to Rez, by the same creator, that I think uses the Natal.

shirenuファクトリー · « **Reply #68 on:** June 15, 2010, 07:34:39 PM »

lol I started watching when Kirby came on

Fun fun

Nintendo... I'm not interested in 3D at all, but they still managed to get me excited about the new console (and I probably won't even buy it for many many years, if ever). I was just like.. I WANT TO TRY IT!!! hahaha They know how to build up hype.

Amplifier · « **Reply #69 on:** June 15, 2010, 07:37:11 PM »

I'm disappointed that Nintendo didn't have any new IP to show off. While I can play and enjoy sequels (rehashes), something brand new would be nice. They listed 10 games in their closing, not a single one was a new property. The DK and Kirby game look like they could be sweet, especially if the Yarn mechanics in Kirby aren't just a cheap gimmick.

I'll reserve judgement on the 3DS until I can actually play it for myself, and see hard tech specs. It sounds like it could be pretty sweet, though. Also: 3D porn

Wonderboy · « **Reply #70 on:** June 15, 2010, 10:08:16 PM »

Nintendo 3DS.
Expected : Starfox, MarioKart, Resident Evil, PES 2011, Dead or Alive, SSFIV, MGS ... etc...
Upper screen : true 3D without glasses needed... Will take 3D pictures too.

New Zelda Wii.
Mature Link + cell shading...

twissie · « **Reply #71 on:** June 15, 2010, 10:34:24 PM »

I'm completely unimpressed by the 3DS, but don't pay any attention to me.. I'm the girl who clings to her SNES for dear life, hoping game developers will come to their senses and bring back awesome 2D pixelated goodness ;____;

....

ANYWAY.

New Donkey Kong Country, holy shit. The music in the background during the presentation but before the reveal had my heart pumping

*dork* Unfortunately I missed the Kirby, Zelda, and Epic Mickey previews. Need to catch up on those, especially the Epic Mickey one, so curious/excited about that whole project!

Those Zelda screenshots posted above look amazing *o*!

Sony Conference had lots of interesting stuff.
Killzone 3 was pretty
Playstation Plus online subscription (boooo~)
Move. I don't care till it comes out
Dead Space 2 looked exciting
LBP2 didn't show much, bit it's a 100% purchase anyways. Top-down view is a great addition

Portal 2 on PS3 was weird
Infamous 2 was a nice suprise
Gran Tourismo 5 got a Nov release date (yaaay~)

Disappointments. SquaEnix just showing the FF 14 MMO. Was hoping them showing more KH or FFvs13 (do they still remember they're making this game?)

Tuffty · « **Reply #73 on:** June 16, 2010, 01:13:31 AM »

haha man. Portal 2 and Steam coming to PS3. Funny how quickly the fanboys change their tune about Valve eh?

Shame it's not out til next year, but if it means more time to make a better game then I'm all for it.

Dead Space 2 looked like...Dead Space. But then the original wasn't new in anyway either, just executed very well. So if they do the same here then I'll certainly consider it.

Tetsuya Nomura said beforehand that FFvsXIII wouldn't make an appearance at E3. Disappointing I know, but what can you do?

I remember Gabe dissing the PS3 before, and given his Microsoft ties, I was really surprised to see that all announced. Whatever works, though

I'm kinda impressed by Nintendo... and very happy to see this company finally back in the first place, well, in my heart almost.

Can't wait to play the awesome Kirby game on Wii, its artistic direction is awesome...
