The Official E3 Thread

[愛]

So uh...how about them E3z, gaiz?

[GK Punk]

The only thing I really care about is that Chinese Democracy starts now.

Hopefully for real this time. Guns n ****in' Roses baby.

[Dr. Doom]

.....What?

[GK Punk]

Rockband 2 has new GNR songs. and that's the only thing I care about so far.

Sony got hammered pretty hard yesterday with the FFXIII thing, wonder if they'll have something to counter it today.

Nintendo sneakily announced that WiiMotion Plus (1:1 control for the Wiimote) thing right before MS' conference, so they'll probably have some weird surprise brewing. I just hope it isn't more 'casual' sh*t.

[Dr. Doom]

Nothing too exciting from Nintendo.

[JameO]

Sony conference starts off as a borefest! CELL PROCESSOR, BLUE RAY FORMAT FOR THE WIN!

[Ninjinister]

Voice chat for Wii!

(Stands in line to get one)

[Cure]

This all sucks. Prince of Persia looks hot, though.

[Mecha Cow]

Sony conference was a disaster. They did show God of War 3 at the end, though. Really boring E³ so far.

E3 isn't much any more these days. Most Japanese developers keep their announcements for TGS.

RE5 looks great and so did Resistance 2. I didn't like the FF13 port reveal, but at least we finally got to see that trailer. I'm satisfied with this E3.

PAX seems to be the way to reveal stuff in the US, too.

[GK Punk]

Corey I think got to play DC vs Mortal Kombat, but she hasnt called me back since going to the meeting for it. I can't wait to hear just how bad this game is.

[poiuytre]

Oh my God.

What just happened? ...They were kidding, right? I can't believe I just watched Capcom's entire conference. The whole thing was nothing but really long-winded Lost Planet Movie talk. A film about a horribly buggy game with an equally terrible script. :|

I want to cry and laugh at the same time. I've been Capcowned :dead: At least this makes Microsoft and Nintendo's conference look decent in comparison.

It's sad that Microsoft actually had the best press conference of the three this year. Nintendo had NOTHING outside of the Animal Crossing announcement, and Sony actually put me to a sleep. A 30 second GoW3 teaser wasn't enough.

And I love Jack Trenton, but the ******** they made that poor guy spew this year was terrible. Sony has such a terrible line-up of games outside LittleBigPlanet.

Also, if you guys wanna hear some rambling, we recorded our second podcast (http://www.theinternauts.net/podcasts.html) last night, dealing with yesterday's E3 stuff on our site (www.theinternauts.net).

We really lay into Microsoft on certain aspects of their conference. I'm sure we'll have some kind of super opinionated over-view of all three conferences up sometime tomorrow, as well.

[Dr. Doom]

Ultimate Alliance 2! Best news so far.

[Peanut]

Ultimate Alliance 2! Best news so far.

You haven't even beaten the first one...

[Dr. Doom]

WTF, yes I have!

[Peanut]

Not according to your gamertag?

[Ninjinister]

So, Doom, your best news of E3 was of a game that was announced a week prior? SYSTEM ERROR!

Actually, the best gaming news for me this week wasn't even E3 related. It was the revelation of Dead Rising for the Wii. Now one of the three or four reasons I had to consider buying a 360 has been blissfully destroyed.

[Peanut]

I'm sure it won't look like and/or play like complete sh*t either. Lucky you.

Anyways, we just stuck up a E3 2008's Biggest Disappointments (http://www.theinternauts.net/tope3.html) feature on our site. I'd like to know what you guys think. Take note that the spacing somehow got ****ed up when I put it up, so it'll be fixed.

[Dr. Doom]

I haven't beaten it on my system, but I beat it like sometime last year or something with my friend on his.

Who else saw that demo of the new 360 dashboard? I think it's absolutely awful looking. They say it's supposed to make things easier and more accessible but I'm already ****ing confused.

[Mecha Cow]

It's better than nothing, I guess (http://kotaku.com/5026096/miyamoto-were-making-pikmin).

Gameplay would worry me, but not graphics. Wii's graphics processor isn't as bad as some critics would insist, and I play first generation PS1 games all the time, not to mention Pong several times a year. Graphics mean nothing to me if the game is fun.

[Dr. Doom]

The game is confirmed to come out on the Wii in Japan, however, all other regions are "to be determined".
