Just waded through all the E3 news.

I'm really excited by what Microsoft showed (Natal). I just hope it actually gets released at some point. In fact, I *really* hope it gets released because I'm buying a 360 in anticipation of it. (well, that and Netflix, and I guess there are some games too... )

Nintendo had a pretty good show, imo. New 2D Mario?!? Yes!!!! Anybody that played New Super Mario Bros on the DS knows this is HUGE news. New Metroid is also great news! I don't know how I feel about it being developed by Team Ninja though, I don't think I've ever played a Team Ninja game without Itagaki at the helm (have there been any yet?)

Wii Motion Plus is really cool, but they are basically re-promising to deliver what they originally promised when unveiling the Wii-mote. Will the public buy it?

Mario Galaxy 2? Very niiiiiiiiiiice!

Vitality Sensor? Nintendo almost got out of the conference without turning into a parody of itself and the laughing stock of the games community. What the hell were they thinking?

Sony didn't lay down this year, good for them. 256 player multiplayer is impressive, but how many of those other 255 players will be calling me a "gay ^^^^^^"? Final Fantasy 14 next year exclusive to PS3? Who saw that coming? That's fairly bombshell-ish. Sony's motion controls looked kinda "eh" I'll have to see more of it. No slim = sad monkey. No price cut = no consoles sold for Sony. PSPgo is what the PSP should have been. Unfortunately, my PSP gets no play from me and I don't think this hardware will change that.

All in all, this felt like the E3 of old. Good show all around (as far as big 3 conferences). While not everything was for me, there was enough from the big 3 to make everybody happy.

Coming from you? There's a shock.

Laugh all you want we did. Whether it's coming from me or not, it's true.

Even our motion sensor owned NATAL and both destroy wii, bye bye Nintendo, how gey is the vitality sensor? And no ZELDA, terrible.

Playstation from the E3 press conference, seems to be reclaiming it's gaming crown.

He's just a dumb fanboy.

Why does everyone keep saying the big 3??!!

There are only 3, here is no one else!!

That just makes me lol a little bit.

This is an interesting move by Nintendo. Metroid has never been a hit in Japan so they got one of the greatest Japanese developers to reimagine the series.

Vitality Sensor? Nintendo almost got out of the conference without turning into a parody of itself and the laughing stock of the games community. What the hell were they thinking?

This seems like a japanese type accessory that will never see the light of day in the US. There are lots of accessories for Japanese systems that never come stateside.

Damn, Starkiller works for Sony. That explains a lot.

 

[Sick Boy 82]

Who said that?

Lots of people, even the IGN, etc., etc. people.

I'm like, WTF??!! Who else is there?? Is there some other crap I should know about??

It's because of the "big 3" automakers methinks. We all got "big 3" on the brain.

But developers have their own conferences as well. So "big 3" differentiates from them.

Well, now if the PS3 wasn't the WORST selling console, I might think more about all the craziness you've been spouting the last 2 days like it's the rapture or some ^^^^.

But as long as I get a few cool games every year for my PS3, I'll be happy.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Looks like Microsoft won this E3, I'm very surprised Sony didn't announce a price cut--they're going to have big problems this holiday season.

Seriously! FU YOU SONY! GREEDY BASTADS!!! Lol. I'm just as suprised especially since the PS2 beat it in April. I still wouldn't be suprised if they still end up lowering the price later this year though.

LOL, might have the least amount of sales, but damn it's really making strides.

It's got over 23 million units sold worldwide, I dunno about you but 23 million
is a lot of consoles.

 

[Shropt]

Man, it just dawned on me. Last year Xbox 360 had most of the E3 demos available for download during the week of E3. I guess we aren't getting them this year.

 

[Starkiller]

I like how they streamlined our store, waiting for FFVII to pop up on the store for download...RE director cut is up now.

Dunno but I'm going to florida this month and I'm downloading it strictly to play on my PSP on the plane ride there and back.
