The official E3 thread!

[愛]

Good find, Toad! Man, you are on the BALL with this E3 stuff!

[Mondo J. Gecko]

:D
...
Anybody seen the new Chronicles of Riddick screens... totally awesome... totally X-box only... :( too bad its a first person shooter, cause I think it would have looked way better as a third person shooter... but maybe thats just me...
...
:D

[Peanut]

Once again great work Toad. Such an impressive showing at that conference.

[Eye of Sarnath]

found some new screenshots of KOTOR 2...
Mmmm, KOTOR. Now I want that new MGS3 trailer online, dammit.

[Mondo J. Gecko]

:o
...
look at these new screens for the new Conker game...
http://media.xbox.ign.com/media/490/490304/imgs_1.html
awesome is all I can say....
...
:o

[Ninjinister]

Maybe I'll just stay out of all non-TMNT related threads... :o

[Toad64]

You see? You see what you did? Your rabid fanboyism ran The S right outta here scared. Makes me sick. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to go watch those Zelda and DS videos....again.

Conker remake is looking nice. It was a great game on N64.

[TMNT4LIFE]

Any news on TMNT 2? Someone mentioned looking at pics a few pages back, but I can't find anything on it...

I don't know if you still want it but I found this.

http://cube.ign.com/articles/513/513680p1.html

May 12, 2004 - Konami's first time around with the turtles, while not a critical success, was indeed a success by many other measures, including sales, to put it straight. And when it comes to good sales vs. crummy reviews, good sales pretty much always win out. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 is back this fall on multiple systems (Xbox, PS2, GameCube, PC and GBA) with a barrage of changes and improvements.

Naturally, the game's biggest stars, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael, have returned for both comic ninja combat and to bolster their energy with pizza. Hey now, everybody -- including turtles -- likes New York-style pizza. This time, they explore non-linear story structures in basic punch, kick, slice, and ducking action against The Shredder and his goons using as many as 30 attack types and combos.

The fattest new feature is a return to its arcade roots, giving players the ability to have four people play in either a cooperative Story Mode or in several head-to-head modes, starting with Battle Nexus Mode. Interestingly, Story mode is based on FoxBox's TMNT Season 2, with character selection and performance affecting the storyline's outcome.

Using new moves, learning new combos, and having more people on-screen is sure to add new structure and social aspects to a game that screams for friendly banter and competition. More importantly, gamers will have the chance to unlock the classic TMNT arcades from the 1980s.

True to form, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael each have their own signature moves, sayings, and personalities, not to mention a cel-shaded visual style that looks very much like the current animated series. To complement the visuals, all of the voice-overs are being done by the same folks from the animated series.

Not surprisingly, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, a simple third-person action game, is due this fall on all systems. Check back for more soon.

[Hyper Metal Sonic]

Yeah, Conker is indeed looking awesome. I loved the N64 game and can't believe that this one will be "un-edited". I mean, damn, the original was bad enough.

Yeah, Conker DOES look a little over-fuzzy, almost like he hasn't shaved in a while.

But actually, maybe that's the entire point.

Wow, from looking at the screens, I'd much rather play a few good hours of this than Halo 2 anyday.

[Peanut]

OH WHY!?! AS IF SLIPPY WASN'T ENOUGH!

[Mondo J. Gecko]

more slippery toads?? why? and wheres Falco? he was the coolest character in that game....

[Demonfox38]

He's still there. Watch the trailer.

I'm glad to see him back--hopefully, this time, for the full game! :x

[Dane E5R]

Was there any stuff on Kingdom Hearts 2?

[愛]

Not yet. I don't think SquareEnix did their presentation yet.

[Peanut]

I loved the first Kingdom Hearts. It kept my PS2 from become a ball of dust. I can't wait to see some stuff on it.

[愛]

Oh, I'm really looking forward to Kingdom Hearts II, as well. The first one was an incredible game that kept me playing it nonstop. And now with the twist of fate, we get an even better game coming.

[Peanut]

Some great stuff has been shown for DS. Including Animal Crossing and Warioware. My mind is blown!

[Mondo J. Gecko]

man.. just read an article on Goldeneye : Rouge Agent... it didn't convince me... I still think its gonna suck...

[Toad64]

Actually I believe SquareEnix had their presentation before Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. A new trailer was shown for KH2, of which I've seen pics, but no video, and more was revealed for KH: Chain of Memories and FFXII.

I've very much looking forward to more Kingdom Hearts.

[Peanut]

man.. just read an article on Goldeneye : Rouge Agent... it didn't convince me... I still think its gonna suck...

I'm not so sure about that one either.

[MW8979]

I hate to point out the obvious here, but I'm afraid I have to. Despite that this point in time is Nintendo's shining moment, you have to realize it won't last forever. By that I mean that eventually Nintendo will be bought out by Microsoft (yet another merger) or more likely, by Sony, which is a gigantic entertainment company (much larger then Nintendo) and based in Japan. I have a feeling that's what's going to happen, and eventually PS and Nintendo will be coming from the same company. Of course, for reasons of marketing and sales competition they'll pretend they're very different things and sell them independently, as if they're coming from two different sources. So enjoy this period while it lasts. And keep in mind that I'm not necessarily pro this idea, but I figure it's inevitable.

[Peanut]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[愛]

God...damn, are you one sad individual.

[Mondo J. Gecko]

So enjoy this period while it lasts. And keep in mind that I'm not necessarily pro this idea, but I figure it's inevitable.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Peanut]

Wait you guys wait! I heard Nintendo is stopping production of the GBA and GBA SP because the N-Gage is destroying it in the market place!

[愛]

:o :o :o :o :o

NOOOOOOO!!!! I heard they're stopping the development of PSP due to N-Gage!

[Voltron]

...Hey, it could happen...


McWORLD!!! AWWWWWWWOH!

[Peanut]

The videogame world is falling apart! Sony just merged Sega and Nokia has bought out Microsoft! Nintendo will now revert back to producing games on cartridge and Atari is also re-producing their original system in full force! Also I heard Jesus is back and he's pretty pissed off!

[MW8979]

Calm down and don't be so dumb. They don't have to stop the development of anything. The developing teams will just answer to a new master, that's all. That doesn't mean Nintendo will die. But it will be influenced by Sony's decisions, as in what kind of games it makes. If you think rationally about the future of gaming, I think you'll see that mergers will become inevitable.

[愛]

NEWSFLASH: Nintendo goes back to making playing cards!

[Voltron]

Sorry to say, but I agree with Shredder. Gates would gobble up Nintendo in a heart beat.

[Peanut]

Calm down and don't be so dumb. They don't have to stop the development of anything. The developing teams will just answer to a new master, that's all. That doesn't mean Nintendo will die.

HOW!?! GBA has outsold the PS2 into the MILLIONS!

Let's not forget that the GBA costs considerably less then PS2.

And has considerably better games. lol

[MW8979]

Actually, this sort of thing can happen very easily. I know that Nintendo is a big seller and pioneer, nobody is debating that. But, Sony or Microsoft will offer the Nintendo management team a lot of money to purchase the company, and nobody can refuse the sort of money those guys offer. Afterwards, they'll monopolize the console gaming industry (and PC industry eventually). GBA and such will still sell lots, but now, they can jack up the prices as high as they want. But for us, but good for the leaders of Microsoft/Sony and the Nintendo managers who sold out. This very same pattern happened to many other companies in other fields, I don't think there's anything special about the video game industry to prevent it from happening there.

[Peanut]

But add up the difference in units sold and you'll see where Nintendo makes up for that. They've stated recently that as long as videogames are around they will be a seperate company. I'd also like to direct you to some numbers. These numbers show Nintendo kicking the sh*t out of both Sony and Microsoft in console sales since their last price drop. The announcements made this far at E3 will only increase sales. As long as there is a loyal fanbase there will be a Nintendo system and as long as there's a Nintendo system, Nintendo will stand as it's own seperate company.

[Voltron]

I want a sequel to Chu Chu Rocket. That storyline had so much potential.

[Taloniss]

These numbers show Nintendo kicking the sh*t out of both Sony and Microsoft in console sales since their last price drop.

I'm not sure on this, but I'd imagine it costs more then $99 to make a system when you factor in workers, machine costs, parts, ect, so while they are selling more, I don't think they're making as big a profit on a per unit basis. I don't think they make any profit on GC because of the drop. I remember reading that somewhere.

And don't forget that, while Nintendo is turning the corner now, they were getting outsold consistently for more then a year. They still have some ground to cover.

This isn't factoring in GBA of course, just consoles, but GBA has had a monopoloy on the handheld market until recently, even now it has no major competition on the market.

[Peanut]

Well of course, but when you look at such huge %'s of sales difference it does account to them making much more. I can't remember the numbers. Maybe Ai can help me. If it were a small amount like 10% sales increase, I would have to agree that there probably isn't much difference in income.

And really...who gives a sh*t? Why is it that when Nintendo FINALLY does something right, we get assholes who just want to try and wreck everything? We Nintendo fans haven't had much to cheer about lately, so why not just let us have our time and shut the f*** up.

[Voltron]

Look at you! Acting like a business man.

[愛]

Well, if you think about it, even though they dropped the price from $150 to $100, they are selling a lot more than before, so they are compensating for their loss of profits. It's more of a balancing out thing. Now that Nintendo is heading in the right direction, they can make up for that loss, if they even have any.

[Taloniss]

Where the hell did I tell you you couldn't be happy? ****, I'm happy for Nintendo, I was just pointing out they just because they sell more units doesn't mean they make as much money.

While we're on the subject, how come the Nintendo Fanboys get to **** all over the other companies? There's so much anti-sony and Microsoft crap being slung around right now it's disgusting. Like whatever you want to like, but don't **** all over other peoples interests just because you don't like it, or have a predisposed hate for the company making it.

[Voltron]

Controller ***.

[Peanut]

Who says I was speaking directly to you? I wasn't. I also haven't bashed Sony or Microsoft ONCE in this entire thread. As a matter of fact I haven't seen ANYONE bash either of them.

[愛]

We do it now because we can. Nintendo has been doing so bad in the past and been disappointing us a lot. Now that they are wiping the floor with the E3 announcements, I feel it is necessary to brag about a company we almost lost faith in, but now is restored. Sony? Great company. Microsoft? "Give me your money."

[Taloniss]

Who says I was speaking directly to you? I wasn't. I also haven't bashed Sony or Microsoft ONCE in this entire thread. As a matter of fact I haven't seen ANYONE bash either of them.

I speaking directly about you either with the anti-othercompany line. But in the GTA thread, there's lines like 'kill me now' and 'oh goody, another rockstar cookie cutter game' ect. And in this thread there's alot of lines like ' Sony and Microsoft should just close down there E3 booths now because Nintendo kicked their asses!' Well, yes, I'm happy for Nintendo, and I'm excited about their products right now, but that's just asinine thinking since some people don't care what Nintendo does and want to see the latest X-box or PS2 games.

[Taloniss]

IGN just put up a DMC3 Hands-on Preview for those who are interested. Link here: http://ps2.ign.com/articles/513/513983p1.html

[愛]

That was put up a few hours ago, and there's no movie footage. I want to see it in action.

[Voltron]

There should be a gaming company by gamers for gamers. We'd make sure that all games didn't suck, and those that did would be burned at the stake.

[Peanut]

See here's the thing. You're taking stuff TOO SERIOUSLY! I obviously know they shouldn't shut down the Sony and Microsoft booths. I mean come on people.

[Hannah]

There should be a gaming company by gamers for gamers. We'd make sure that all games didn't suck, and those that did would be burned at the stake.
For once, I agree with you.

[Voltron]

See here's the thing. You're taking stuff TOO SERIOUSLY! I obviously know they shouldn't shut down the Sony and Microsoft booths. I mean come on people.


But I like Linux! LETS HAVE A LINUX BOOTH!

[愛]

Nintendo does that with their own games, but when these people come around with horrible games for the GameCube, that's when it starts to suck. Mostly all of Nintendo's games (I mean made by them) are really good.

[Hannah]

Most of Sega's game's are good, too. :(

[Voltron]

I agree completely. Nintendo has done some great work, so has Sega. A lot better than Crash Bandicoot.

[Peanut]

Crash Bandicoot had it's moments...you know...when it ended and stuff.

[愛]

Sega is phenomenal. They just made a big mistake releasing the Dreamcast too early. If they can pull themselves out of their hole and make a new console, I'm sure they can be huge again.

[Taloniss]

The first crash was good.

[Hannah]

Sega is phenomenal. They just made a big mistake releasing the Dreamcast too early. If they can pull themselves out of their hole and make a new console, I'm sure they can be huge again.
Sega doesnt make platforms anymore.

[Peanut]

Sega is phenomenal. They just made a big mistake releasing the Dreamcast too early. If they can pull themselves out of their hole and make a new console, I'm sure they can be huge again.

Agreed. I'd like to see that happen.

Edit: Wait...is Kenai serious?

[愛]

Well, Kenai, if you would read some articles, they said they were in the process of making a new console.

EDIT: What the hell do you mean by platforms?

[Taloniss]

She probably means consoles.

[Peanut]

Yeah, she probably means consoles. Either way she's lost.

[Taloniss]

Aren't we all, in some way? /philospher mode

[Demonfox38]

Aren't we all, in some way? /philospher mode

Heeelp? I can't find my way out of the Nintendo booth! Oh well. :lol:

As far as the cousle wars go, I really only play Nintendo because they've gained my trust over the years. They really try to make revolutionary games, and they seem to care about their fans. PS2s are enjoyable too, but most of their games I can easily get on a Gamecube. Every time I try to play an X-Box, it seems to crash on me. (The only time it didn't was durning a Turtles game.)

I'm not going to say anything bad about any company. They've all got their strengths and weaknesses. For what I need, Nintendo has given me--fast-paced games that usually kick ass. I don't need online connections or better graphics. Graphics are nice, but I need depth to the game.

That's why I love Nintendo. They make games like a work of art--be it with legends, blasters, fire, strange little flower creatures, or space combat.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I saw a commercial for that Donkey Kong bongo game while watching Japanese TV. I saw it a few times, actually. Looks horrible. It's like a bad version of DDR.

[Hannah]

Haha. Donkey Kong. Hahahaha. Monkey Kong.

[Taloniss]

Kinda old, but I didn't see it reported here.

From IGN.com:

May 11, 2004 - To say that Sony's PlayStation Portable handheld system dominated the company's E3 2004 press conference would be an understatement. Officially unveiled approximately 20 minutes into the presentation, the new game system was a big hit with the crowd and finally answered several of questions that most of us have been asking in the year since the hardware was first announced.

Scheduled to be launched in Japan at the end of the year (North America and Europe get it in the spring of 2005), The PSP is available in PlayStation 2 black with a 16:9 widescreen TFT LCD display that boasts over 16.7 million colors and a resolution of 480x272. Dimensionally, its numbers are 170mm x 74mm x 23mm with a weight of 260 grams. Basic portable functions like built-in stereo speakers, exterior headphone connector, brightness control and sound mode selectors are among the lineup of features, and the buttons mirror that of a PlayStation 2 controller almost exactly (Square, Triangle, X, and Circle face buttons, a digital pad, start, select, and an analog thumb stick populate the face, with two shoulder buttons on the top).

Additionally, the new system comes standard with USB 2.0 and 802.11b Wi-Fi wireless LAN connectors that allow for multiple PSPs to be simultaneously connected to one another. Data and software can then be downloaded either by using the wireless LAN connections or through the use of a Memory Stick Pro Duo. The PSP also adopts the small high-capacity optical medium Universal Media Disc, the UMD. This format not only allows for 1.8 GB of space, it also provides an extremely versatile format for games, music, and video. The press conference demo showed off the trailer for Spider-Man 2 (the movie not the game) as well as Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children which is coming to both the DVD and UMD formats. To protect the content, a robust copyright protection system has been developed which utilizes a combination of a unique disc ID, a 128 bit AES encryption keys for the media, and individual ID for each PSP hardware unit.

Games announced:

Note: All are only confirmed for Japan at this point, but there are some that are obviously crossing the Pacific.

Here's a pic of the PSP:

http://pspmedia.ign.com/psp/image/article/513/513479/e3-2004-sony-officially-unveils-the-psp-200405110136976.jpg

Metal Gear, Devil May Cry, Bomberman and Viewtiful Joe? That's a better lineup then what PS2 launched with. Speculation on the price, but most sights are guessing somewhere in the $300 - $400 dollar range. I'd guess it drops after a month or two though, because most people won't pay that for a handheld.

On another note, I just watched the Zelda video. Did anyone else get a LOTR feeling from it? I was watching it, and all I could think of (besides, 'Damn I want this game') was how much everything had a LOTR feel to it. I dunno, maybe I'm crazy.

[愛]

Damn, that PSP looks impressive. This is just an all out amazing E3. It's a shame Xbox doesn't have much to show this year.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Yes, that Zelda did feel like LOTR. Dreams do come true..

The PSP is as ugly as I thought it would be. Serew it. Go DS

[Toad64]

One thing to note about the UMD discs the PSP can use. If I'm remembering correctly, using the mini DVDs means it has to use movable parts internally, which drastically reduces battery time. I believe I heard it runs for 2 hours on the UMD 1.8 gig discs, while 10 hours on the other format, probably some sort of memory stick? I'm asuming most games will be arriving on the memory card/stick format, as that's just not enough time for gaming when you're not home.

I just watched some E3 stuff on G4, including some PSP footage, and yes, it certainly does look like a PS2. In fact, you can't really tell the difference.

That being said, I'm a bigger Nintendo fan. : ) Gotta start saving for my DS. Hopefully tomorrow will bring us some info on the Kingdom Hearts games, darnnit!

[Eye of Sarnath]

The PSP looks surprisingly good. I mean, the graphics it can do are just plain awesome (the PSP version of Metal Gear nearly looks as good as the PS2 version).

[Taloniss]

Damn, that PSP looks impressive. This is just an all out amazing E3. It's a shame Xbox doesn't have much to show this year.

Yeah. Most of their big games were already announced, so they couldn't really drop any huge bombs. The updates were nice though, and I'm looking forward to quite a few X-box games. Halo 2, KOTOR II, Fable, and X-box Live 3.0 is supposed to go live sometime this year.

I agree, this has been an excellent E3, and there's alot of good games coming out this year, especially from/for Nintendo, which is what they need now. To reassurte themselves. If all the games can deliver, they'll be riding a nice wave of momentum into next year where they'll likely announce a new system. I hope all this stuff fits into my budget.

The PSP is as ugly as I thought it would be. Serew it.

It looks just like GBA (the non-SP version) just with more buttons and a bigger screen (from the look of it) Was the GBA ugly too?

[Dane E5R]

PSP's lookin' nice to me, man.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Why in God's name would anyone want to play MGS or some crap on PS when you can have MULTIPLAYER MARIO 64?

Whoop de doo, the PSP looks like a console in the graphics department. The DS does too and has a METROID PRIME SPINNOFF. :D

Eh, I'll just ignore the PSP from here on out. Don't want a thing to do with it.

[Taloniss]

Why in God's name would anyone want to play MGS or some crap on PS when you can have MULTIPLAYER MARIO 64?

Because they like MGS more then Mario? I respect that you don't, and would rather play Mario (as would any number of people) but alot of people would rather play MGS (Major Pain springs to find from this board) It's all opinion really, and everyone's got one.

Me? I like both, and given a choice, I'd be hard pressed to choose between the two. I'll probably pick up DS at launch (assuming the price is $200 or less, if not, I'll wait for a price drop) and get PSP when the price drops a bit.

[Peanut]

Toad you are UP on top of your facts man.

[MW8979]

Metal Gear, Devil May Cry, Bomberman and Viewtiful Joe? That's a better lineup then what PS2 launched with. Speculation on the price, but most sights are guessing somewhere in the $300 - $400 dollar range. I'd guess it drops after a month or two though, because most people won't pay that for a handheld.

Hmm, the PSP looks good, but unless they get a better game selection (which they might eventually) and a lower price, I think I'll stick to GB SP.

Hmm, well, 4 games is enough to jusify the purchase of a system for me, but I'll probably wait for a price drop as well (assuming it starts at $400)

[Peanut]

This is a huge surprise. This game came out of NO WHERE and looks extremely fun. It has quickly jumped up my list of wanted games. IGN calls it the sleeper hit of the show. Check it out! DK Jungle Beat (http://cube.ign.com/articles/514/514271p1.html)! I just hope you don't have to buy Donkey Konga to get the drums to play it.

[MW8979]

Are they releasing it now? If so, by Christmas it will come down somewhat. But for all us cheapskates, we'll have to wait until next year to even consider buying it.

The article seemed to imply you had to have the drums.

[Peanut]

No, I meant if you had to buy Donkey Konga to get the drums or if they'd be packed in with this game as well. Obviously you'd need the drums.

[Taloniss]

No, I meant if you had to buy Donkey Konga to get the drums or if they'd be packed in with this game as well. Obviously you'd need the drums.

Oh. Misread. My bad.

[damnhooligan]

DK Jungle Beat looks pretty sweet. I could never bring myself to play games like DDR because of fear of looking like a retard (and I loathe the game), but this seems a nice bridge between the standard controller and the get-up-and-dance-like-a-moron controllers.

I could see this game kicking massive amounts of ass at a drunken party.

[Peanut]

I'm all about the drunken parties over here!

I just watched some footage of Conker...god...DAMN. Most visually impressive game I have EVER seen. Conker looks BEAUTIFUL! This game makes me wish my Xbox wasn't broken.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I'd buy Konga to get the drums for Jungle Beat, easily.

The PSP looks ugly to me Because it is a rip off of the original GBA in design. Plus I really don't give a F*** about Sony. Anyway, has anyone heard about Sega's "big earth shattering" announcement yet? Was it important or just the typical green Sega smoke to drum up press?

And yes, Toad is up on the facts. Thanks man. :)

[Peanut]

Anyway, has anyone heard about Sega's "big earth shattering" announcement yet? Was it important or just the typical green Sega smoke to drum up press?

I haven't heard anything yet. I don't think they've said anything. Although they might have.

[Taloniss]

Little off-topic, but I think it fits into the overall theme of this thread (video games) and this thread gets alot of traffic, so, what the hell.

X-box just made an appearence on Angel. They were playing Crash Bandicoot, trying to figure out the point of collecting crystals and fruit. They decided it was a 'test.' One character then went on a rant how the game was annoying and frustrating, yet she was compelled to play. I dunno, I thought it was funny. Especially since one character is a god like creature.

This mark this the second game console to appear on Angel. Spike has been playing a GBA before, although the game was never mentioned. Spike's been seen playing X-box before as well.

[Demonfox38]

Lol, gotta love it when demons get philisophical about Video Games.

[Hyper Metal Sonic]

I just watched some footage of Conker...

Linkage?

Ha. Sorry dude. Here' you go. http://xbox.ign.com/articles/514/514188p1.html
While the first video is extremely short...you can get the point.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Did anyone else see the G4 coverage of E3 on Tech TV tonight? They showed the DS unveiling, the Zelda trailer (Godly), Miyamoto's arrival, and Mario 64x4 in Motion. THey had the PSP crap too. Anyone see it?

[Eye of Sarnath]

At least we know ThirdMarioBro isn't biased.

[Peanut]

At least we know ThirdMarioBro isn't biased.

HAHAHAHA! Yeah seriously! :lol:

I pulled one of the old Conker images out of the archive for comparison...

Wow, it's amazing how far we've come in 5 years.

So far this is the 2nd reason for me to get an XBox...

Who knows, once it gets to $100, I may pick one up.

[Peanut]

Well this has kinda convinced me. I need to get a new Xbox. DAMN IT!

[ThirdMarioBro]

At least we know ThirdMarioBro isn't biased.

Not biased, just highly opinioniated :D :lol:

I'll just stay quiet about that stuff so as to not insult anyone who like it. :roll:

Zelda kicks ass to an extreme. Long live Shiggy.

[Dane E5R]

I'll probably end up gettin' a PS2 for KH2.

[Toad64]

ThirdMarioBro, yeah, I watched the G4 E3 coverage last night. It had some audio problems, though. When they showed the Microsoft press conference, you couldn't hear anything.

[Toad64]

Miyamoto speaks at IGN:
http://cube.ign.com/articles/514/514589p1.html

He and Aonuma talk about Zelda and the DS.

[Barkworm]

It seems like the hardware of the PSP is at PS2 level while the DS hardware is just on N64 level. That's kinda bugging me... That and the fact, that the design of the PSP is a helluva lot better then the DS prototype design. :ohwell:
I wonder what the PSP is gonna cost.

[Taloniss]

I wonder what the PSP is gonna cost.


Price's I've seen specualte somewhere in the $300 - $400 dollar range, although there is no official word yet on what it will be. That's just peoples guesses.

Screens from the Spider-Man game for PSP here:

http://media.psp.ign.com/articles/514/514401/imgs_1.html

Zelda for GC is also supposed to be released in 2005. (based on the interview at IGN, it will be after next years E3, probably Summer 2K5) The horse (not confirmed as Epona) will also play a large role in gameplay, and the game is not a sequal to Wind Waker, and will not have the Wind Waker name attached to it. Credit: http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/05/12/news_6097980.html

IGN also has up a preview of WWE: Day of Reckoning. Link here: http://cube.ign.com/articles/512/512122p1.html

Not sure if it's been mention yet, but IGN has a preview up for the GBA Zelda game. Link (ha! Puns are fun) here: http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/512/512539p1.html

[ThirdMarioBro]

This is all so awesome. :D

[Taloniss]

Quick hands-on impression of Fable here: http://xbox.ign.com/articles/514/514744p1.html

Ditto for KOTOR II: http://pc.ign.com/articles/514/514081p1.html

Hands on, New Hi-Res screens and video of StarCraft: Ghost here: http://ps2.ign.com/articles/513/513733p1.html

This is all so awesome. :D

I agree. Nintendo dropped some huge new info this E3, and they look like they're getting their act in gear, Sony debuted the PSP which is shaping up to be a good handheld, and X-box games finally got some big updates or were announced officially. It's a good year to be a gamer.

[Peanut]

And this (http://cube.ign.com/articles/514/514769p1.html)...just scares me...

PSP impresses me, but there's no way in hell I'm going to pay so much for it.

[Taloniss]

PSP impresses me, but there's no way in hell I'm going to pay so much for it.

I agree. If it is in the range that everyone is guessing, I'll wait for a price drop. The most I'll pay for any handheld is $200. (Which is what I hear DS will be at launch)

[Peanut]

Even so, with the system being powerful enough to pump out near PS2 like graphics...It's going to suck down batteries like they're going out of style.

[Taloniss]

Meh, batteries are cheap. I carry about 10 in my backpack at a time, incase my CD player or gameboy die. Then I never run out, since I always restock.

[damnhooligan]

Meh, batteries are cheap. I carry about 10 in my backpack at a time, incase my CD player or gameboy die. Then I never run out, since I always restock.

Cheap, my ass. I recall a week where I actually debated "Batteries for my GBA or eat?" Ah, college days.

[MW8979]

For those who worry about batteries, rechargeables are available on the market. They last a long time and save you tonnes of money.

[Peanut]

Yeah, batteries are pretty damn expensive. I hardly have enough money as it is. Thank god for the GBA SP's rechargeable battery.

[Taloniss]

Jeez, I pay like, $5 for 10 batteries. That's not expensive. 2 for a dollar.

[愛]

GBA SP is your friend.

[Peanut]

Jeez, I pay like, $5 for 10 batteries. That's not expensive. 2 for a dollar.

I did that too and they lasted for less than 30 minutes.

[Taloniss]

Jeez, I pay like, $5 for 10 batteries. That's not expensive. 2 for a dollar.

I did that too and they lasted for less than 30 minutes.

Really? In my GBA, they last for about 8 - 10 hours. Same with my CD player.

[愛]

That's Canada for you.

[damnhooligan]

Metric power.

[Peanut]

IGN posted a bunch of DS stuff. Tech demos and what not. Unfortunatley they don't have any media on it. Jerks.

Edit: I just watched the new Conker videos they posted. 7 in all. I can say it is the best looking game I have ever seen. It's just so beautiful. I NEED a new Xbox after seeing this.

[Barkworm]

I'd buy an X-Box if there were three X-Box games that I really want. Conker is number 1.
And if the PSP is really going to cost that much it will be a huge flop.

[愛]

PSP looks impressive, but I doubt they'll put any real good games on it. DS just beats the hell out of that thing hands down.

[GK Punk]

being the classics lovin' freak that I am, the next Midway's Arcade hits disc looks amazing. Gauntlet 2, Arch Rivals, The first 3 Mortal Kombats... Sounds like a winner to me.

[Peanut]

Hmmm. Fable? KOTOR2? I just wish mine hadn't broken. :cry:

[GK Punk]

Yeah both of those games look amazing. I am seriously considering getting my own X Box. (I usually just borrow my friends)

Plus adding music always makes Tony Hawk games better.

I can see where you're coming from. I wasn't big on the first KOTOR...until I played it. I was blown away. Have you played it? Cause if so I don't know how you could not want to be excited for the second one. Fable I was a lot more pumped up for, but I dunno it seems to be losing steam. Especially after all the other awesome stuff that's been announced for this year.

[Taloniss]

I'll agree with that. I think it's also the game has been in development for so long, we're all kinda getting tired of waiting for it to be finished.

No doubt. Also in the newest preview of it, they mention that the game took a bigger step towards normal RPG's with the whole XP/point thing. Unlike before where it was all background stuff. Now it's all up in front. That kinda put me off a bit. :ohwell:

[Voltron]

I'd break up with my girlfriend to go to E3.

[TMNT4LIFE]

I hate to point out the obvious here, but I'm afraid I have to. Despite that this point in time is Nintendo's shining moment, you have to realize it won't last forever. By that I mean that eventually Nintendo will be bought out by Microsoft (yet another merger) or more likely, by Sony, which is a gigantic entertainment company (much larger then Nintendo) and based in Japan. I have a feeling that's what's going to happen, and eventually PS and Nintendo will be coming from the same company. Of course, for reasons of marketing and sales competition they'll pretend they're very different things and sell them independently, as if they're coming from two different sources. So enjoy this period while it lasts. And keep in mind that I'm not necessarily pro this idea, but I figure it's inevitable.

Seems you haven't seen Reggie.

They hired this guy to handle Sony and MS. :evil: :o :lol:

Okay. Back to the videogames.

The PSP looks nice, but all the games I've seen are just continuations of PS2 titles, and thus, I'm not really so interested.

GO DS!

[Peanut]

Let's try not to spam up at least ONE thread. :roll:

[Toad64]

I agree, no need to start throwing names and such around, you know?

[Peanut]

I jumped on over to Gamefaqs to check out the boards for the new Zelda. What have I seen already?

this is not WW2
WW2 is being worked on by kyoto(I think he was the producer of it....or director,forgot)
the realistic zelda is being worked on by silicon knights


Total nonsense from complete idiots. I would seriously like to know where these people come from.

[Hyper Metal Sonic]

Lol. That's great.

Maybe it's just me, but didn't Silicon Knights just break away from Nintendo?

[Peanut]

That's what makes it so funny! Silicon Knights just went third party, so OF COURSE Nintendo is going to hand over one of their most anitcipated games of all time to them. Geez. Some people.

Yeah, nothing beats a new, portable Super Mario 64 and kart in full 3D. That Metroid Hunters looked amazing. Imagine the deathmatches. Like a LAN match except easier to set up. Just walk up to a friend who has the game, turn it on, and clike "multiplayer". Awesomeness. Not to trash the PSP (which I do far too much), but the DS just has wayyy more to offer, including a Recharable Lithium Ion Battery. PSP can't beat that.

That's what makes it so funny! Silicon Knights just went third party, so OF COURSE Nintendo is going to hand over one of their most anitcipated games of all time to them. Geez. Some people.

[ThirdMarioBro]

[Toad64]

Hey, just read that post about the GameFaqs talk. Well, obviously, they sound a bit confused to say the least. But some of it is actually just them getting their facts a bit mixed up, perhaps, about Dennis Dyack and Silicon Knights.

After Silicon Knights finished Eternal Darkness, Dennis said in an interview that he'd love to do a game like Metal Gear Solid for Gamecube. Of course we find that a year later, he's been doing just that. Right after the release of the Twin Snakes, in a new interview, Dennis said he'd love to work on a Zelda game that goes back to the mature, realistic look of Ocarina of Time. Obviously, he once again knew something. So now Silicon Knights is no longer with a 2nd party. But the director for the new Zelda is still unknown, and Dennis has been seen at E3 with Nintendo in some kind of conference room or something, and neither will disclose why, or what exactly their current relationship is. It may sound stupid for GameFaqs to jump the gun like that, but it still seems like something's up, don't you think?

Oh,and that part about WW2 being a different game? That part is stupid. : )

[Peanut]

I get where you're coming from. That's what I thought as well, but either way, I seriously doubt Nintendo will hand the new Zelda over to a 3rd party company.

[Toad64]

Lots of Nintendo DS videos! While I haven't watched all of them yet, what i've seen is worth downloading. Charles Martinet does some Mario interaction with the crowd, then comes out to introduce the DS. Then the audience is led to a huge room with DS kiosks all over the place. So far it's pretty cool, and anyone interested in the DS should check it out. Be warned, though, I've been trying to download these since yesterday, and it's been a real pain. I highly recommend a download manager, something that can resume the download, in case you're cut off. Try stardownloader.com , it's free and has no spyware.

here's the vids:

LOL! Yeah, find the E3 trailer to Kingdom Hearts 2! hee hee!

[Hannah]

Will KH2 have Halloween Town in it?

[Toad64]

Right now that's not known, ~KenaI~. We know it will have the Beast's castle, and Hercules' Ancient Greece. I think those are the only two confirmed worlds right now. Oh, and I believe Twilight Town, similar to Traverse Town.

Halloween Town will be in Chain of Memories, though, as much of the game appears to be Sora reliving memories of the first game. Check out the CoM trailer for some Halloween Town scenes.

[Hannah]

Okay, because the only reason I played the first one was for TNBC stuff. :D

[ThirdMarioBro]

Toad, I really want to thank you for those DS Demonstration videos. They are awesome! :D I've always wanted to get to see the Mario Live thingy. Imagina Mario talking about the lakers!!HAHAHAHA

[Toad64]

I know, I always see pictures of that display, but I've never seen it in actions. I was really surprised to see Martinet there, since no one really talked about him on any websites. Odd.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Indeed. I've always thought that was one of the coolest parts of the show. I taught myself how to do the voices of just about any Mario related character, and that gives me more material to practice on.

Very cool stuff. This is the best E3 ever!

The video shown at E3 isn't Wind Waker 2. They're making 2 new Zelda games.

[XERO]

Yes, Zelda is gonna OWN. I hope it's the original Link from OoT. He's the best.

And of course, TMNT 2 will rock. Finally 4 players! And the Arcade game! Sweetizzle!! :D :goofygri:

I remember reading it was basically a remake of the first game, but I can't be sure.

^ that was the one for game cube... twin snakes

No, no, I'm talking first NES game. I know Twin Snakes was a remake of Metal Gear Solid.

[guitardave]

oh... I thought you were talking about... yea...

hmm, maybe, I've played the first one, and it was in a jungle, but I think that's it only similarity.

I think Snake Eater is going to be a real test of Metal Gear players' capability. That game looks so damn hard, it's ridiculous. No radar? Live off animals? Whew...

yea, I know... I can't wait until this game comes out though. oh, and you can break you leg too, if you jump down from too high, atleast that's what I've read.

Konami has released a 15 minute (!!!!!!) trailer of the game with a lot of ingame and story sequences. The games looks absolutely great.

SPOILER

We could already see young Revolver Ocelot and a person who looked exactly like Raiden (he even got his balls squeezed like him :dead: ).
