Title: E3
Post by: Breakdown on June 12, 2010, 10:32:30 AM
Hey guys,


So E3 is coming up pretty soon, I figure we should use this topic for all the announcements we hear.

I'm looking forward to seeing more about the PS3 motion stuff, I haven't really looked up on it much yet. Curious to see if it would be a good buy or not.

What about you guys?

If you see any good updates, post em!

here is what i am looking for but may not happen in some cases.

1. HL2 Episode 3 is speculated to be announced

2. New XboX, it has been a pattern for 5 year increments between Console releases and a new xbox is due.

3. Star wars BF 3

4. legitimate CoD7 preview (will be buying for PC)

Gran Turismo 5 I am very excited for. That's probably the biggest game for me. I can't wait for it to be released.

Marvel vs Capcom 3 I am also excited for, however I never liked the 2nd one. The 1st one however was great fun.

Killzone 3, Rage, and Crysis 2 look very interesting, probably the only shooters that I'm interested in this E3.

Other notable games are Dead Rising II, Mafia II, The Force Unleashed II, Rock Band 3 (the new controller has 102 buttons now... lol), and Conduit 2.

Final Fantasy XIV's also making an appearance however I'm more interested in Final Fantasy Versus XIII.

Portal II and Half Life 2: Episode 3... I really don't know what to say. Valve is just really, really weird sometimes.

The new Ghost Recon is also a notable mention, however Ubisoft have really nerfed/MW2-ized their games over the years so I'm afraid it's not going to be Ghost Recon anymore.

Portal 2 got delayed till 2011 Khy :(, won't be anything at E3 about that, Valve canceled their P2 announcement thingy and said they'll be a surprise instead.

Post by: Wild on June 12, 2010, 01:46:14 PM
I don't think they would come out with a new Xbox, since they are announcing "Project Natal" for the 360. And I don't see what they would improve with a new Xbox other than graphics (if it's possible)
Title: Re: E3
Post by: Soap Mactavish on June 12, 2010, 03:15:13 PM
xbox graphics should be increased to compete with ps3

are you familiar with anything Valve does lol? Of course there will be something Portal at E3. It being delayed to 2011 will affect almost nothing; games that are coming out in several years are previewed at E3.

just because it is a surprise doesnt mean it is delayed. it means valve is gonna make the release date...a surprise.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: aeria. on June 12, 2010, 09:20:44 PM
Portal 2 was already announced to be delayed, I'm not too surprised. Some games have it worse however. Duke Nukem Forever was in development for 10 years until they ran out of money, fired everyone, and canned the project.

Half Life 2: Episode 3 I'm far more interested in than Portal 2, which has been delayed for too many years (for an episodic game) that most people already assume it won't see the light of day.

Right now, I really don't know what the surprise will be from Valve and I don't have much clues to find out what it is.

Title: Re: E3
Post by: khy on June 14, 2010, 10:54:47 AM
So basically what is going on at the microsoft press conference, is gameplay for 360 exclusives (maybe a level)
The games will also have stand at other parts of e3, but this is the big press conference being shown on tv.
Title: Re: E3

It's really cool.
You can watch a movie and fast forward with your hands.


Espn strikes a deal with Xbox 360.
Sporrts are now accesable from your 360 at any time.

Lots of kinect games being shown
Fitness, dancing, action sports, adventures, etc.
I actually might get this. It looks amazing.

Post by: aeria. on June 14, 2010, 11:50:47 AM
Kinect reminds me of a certain console that has a lot of crappy games because it tried to appeal to the casual crowd. I know that core gamers won't care too much about the Kinect but it might impress the gullible casual crowd.

I just don't want to make the same mistake as being interested in the wii because Twilight Princess made me believe that it has its share of actual games, however overtime, that didn't come out to be so.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: khy on June 14, 2010, 11:52:28 AM
actually ag i think this looks really cool. i didnt think i would like it at all but i really want it

Star wars kinect game!

All being shown is jedi fighting off storm troopers and vader but its with kinect, so actually pretty cool.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: aeria. on June 14, 2010, 12:06:29 PM
If you rewatch the star wars section closely, you'll see that the video is full-motion and it isn't corresponding to the action. That whole thing was fake, but I'm not too surprised.

Kinect looks really stupid. It's like the Wii but you waggle your legs too.

MS also bribed everyone there by giving them a new Xbox slim for free. New model has 250GB built-in HDD and built-in WiFi. $299.

The Standard 360 Arcade model is now $149.

Wow, xbox hardware must be really cheap. No wonder everyone got the RRoD.

Post by: Soap Mactavish on June 14, 2010, 12:30:25 PM
u guys serious? i thought kinect looked pretty amazing. best step we have toward 3D we have had lately.

CoD7 look amazing and i will be buying it.

cant wait to see what is happening on assassins creed. AND! if someone can plz tell me when valve is making an appearance that would be nice.

Well, I watched the EA conference. The only things that looked good were the Old Republic (awesome new trailer like the last one they did) and Medal of Honor. Otherwise, lots of boring stuff or things that I didn't particularly care about.

I was surprised that they did not have the ex-Infinity Ward guys come up on stage and talk about whatever they are developing. That was a major win for EA and I'm surprised they did not flaunt it.

Excited for Sony and Nintendo tomorrow. hopefully they'll have a lot to talk about. :D
Title: Re: E3
Post by: khy on June 14, 2010, 04:17:27 PM
I as well watched the e3 conference.
i think Medal of Honor is a definate buy for me...
it looks amazing
Also during an interview right now on g4, the guy is telling the  interviewers that instead of killstreaks, there's score streaks, which is pretty cool.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: Soap Mactavish on June 14, 2010, 04:41:21 PM
kk, now that I have Windows I feel like have a lot of options here. definite buys are bc2 Vietnam and cod7 and if I get an xbox ill be getting halo reach and gow


anyone know when the valve show is gonna happen? fingers crossed for L4D3.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: aeria. on June 14, 2010, 10:33:18 PM
L4D3 is the LAST thing I want to happen...

Seriously, not even 2 should've happened. It was too soon.

Post by: Soap Mactavish on June 15, 2010, 07:12:10 AM
l4D2 is an awesome game ag. id say if a video game can ever turn a teenager into a psycho killer it would be left 4 dead 2

Well, the Nintendo conference is in less than an hour. Looking forward to seeing what they're announcing.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: Hardcore on June 15, 2010, 08:19:08 AM
I expect a surprise from Nintendo :)

And as for the Left 4 Dead 2, I expect in Episode one they find the lab that turned the first zombies and mutated the others also find that it has a portal that sends them to Left 4 Dead: Season 3: Episode 8, where they in turn see that they are the only people left and so they set off a massive explosion aimed to kill every zombie in miles after they go into the militery base bomb shelter (ultimate sacrifice, someone dies), then they go on the offensive with bigger and better weapons then ever, with tanks, helicopters and lots and lots of cocktails, they plan to kill every zombie left.

This has been Hardcore with, the Zombie Kill of the week.

Activision already had their conference last night, I believe. It wasn't anything special. I don't think they announced anything new for CoD7. if they did, it's probably up on Gametrailers.

I'm curious how good the 3DS is at doing 3d. The way they presented it, it looks sort of like a hack of some kind. I hope it's not a lame thing, but the people who have seen it before seem to have been impressed by it, so I guess we'll see what comes up later.

Zelda looks really good. I'm excited for that, though the controls seem a little finicky to me. Maybe it was just the stage demo thing, but I hope the controls improve a lot when it gets released. Kirby looks cool, Donkey Kong looks pretty awesome, and the 3DS I'm still reserving judgement on.

Not too hyped for Sony. I doubt they will be announcing anything too big, but who knows? They might end up stealing the show.

I found the new zelda trailer while poking around nintendo's E3 press server and uploaded it. This is the RAW VIDEO, not the shot by camera crap you see on youtube right now. You can't find this anywhere else on the net right now.
Thanks Red, you're the best !

Post by: aeria. on June 15, 2010, 02:01:21 PM
The new Zelda's a bit too colorful after playing TP. The 3DS is very impressive to me, the ability to make it 2D is my favorite.

Nintendo did a fair job this year. I missed Sony's conference however.

Also Goldeneye seems impressive, hopefully this time they'll get the Wii FPS controls done right.
Title: Re: E3
Post by: Jedikiller on June 15, 2010, 04:26:40 PM
I missed Sony's conference, but it doesn't really seem like they announced anything of much importance. Just Move pricing and some various sequels, right?

Skyward Sword is apparently a lot better than it seems like in the tech demo. The trailer looked somewhat boring and generic, but I'm sure it'll have the normal Zelda storyline and the like, which should make it a lot more fun to play. All the Zeldas have bad trailers, it seems. The 3DS is also apparently very impressive, and it actually does do glasses-less 3D. That's pretty awesome. I doubt I'll buy one, but all the same...

Going to E3  is something that I've always wanted to do. It looks like an awesome show and it seems like a really cool place to be for one of the most exciting weeks in gaming.
