**** Project Cafe, **** Arkham City, and **** The Last Guardian. All I care about now is the Metal Gear Solid collection!

...Ok, not really, but I am seriously stoked on this news.

My biggest concern?
How they will handle the controls. I think a revamp is the right choice to make. Something along the lines of Metal Gear Solid 4 with minor adjustments would be great. In the end, I'll consider it a fair bonus even if they just give us a third-person camera in Metal Gear Solid 2. That would definitely help freshen up the game.

Edit: Realizing that implementing a modern camera could possibly really junk up the experience for MGS2.

What do you guys think - Can Metal Gear Solid 2 work with a refined camera/control scheme?

Giant Bomb is great, because I feel like they have integrity, unlike some gaming websites. Although, I find myself going to the "N4G" site to get most of my gaming news.

Ill be there if u pay for my plane ticket

If you want the best news coverage, I would say Giant Bomb and Joystiq, as Peanut said.

Which reminds me, where are we going to watch the streams of E3 this year?

"N4G" stands for " New for gamers". Basically it's just a big stream of incoming game news, from everywhere around the net. There are useless updates to sort through occasionally, but you can bet any big piece of gaming news will be posted on N4g.

Mortal Kombat brought us what a fighting game story mode should be. Soul Calibur V brings us... Super Combos? Welcome to 1994. Also, the graphics look unchanged. I don't see a massive leap from SCIV to SCV. We should be looking at a leap from a first-gen game to a last-gen game for these consoles. Either Namco is lazy and recycling their engine, or these consoles have reached their limit. Knowing Namco, I pick option #1.

Looks totally unchanged. I'm a BIG SC player. I hope to heaven there's a lot more than meets the eye here, otherwise I'm going to be a sad puppy. I want destructible stages dammit.
Keep in mind that it's like 10% complete. They really shouldn't have showed a trailer this early... it's still in its developmental infancy and it shows.

Art style looks really cool, but it also looks boring as f*ck. I wouldn't expect much else from the guys who made Flower.

I always enjoy game worlds where you're just dropped into it, completely oblivious to who you are and where you are, but I also like there to be a game involved in my games, you know? It sounds like the entire thing is Flower with fabric instead of petals. Always worth checking out experimental games, though.

Sorry I was in a rush, it was my birthday. Just as long as I spit the news out.

With all this Metal Gear news I'm actually getting excited for this series. I never really liked it or hated it but I knew it was a big deal. But now I want to get these games.

I actually enjoyed Flower. Great stress relief tool. Not much else, but it is certainly cathartic.

Any thoughts on the Darksiders II trailer? I'm sure it'll be good but Death's design looks pretty lame.

Yeah, the design isn't great. One thing that really put me off is that they apparently mention "loot" in the GI story, which sounds really stupid. I love loot and it has its place, but that place isn't in a Zelda-inspired action game.

Prototype 2 looks really good, but my question is will it be like the first game, the game was fun, but after a while I lost interest and the game doesn't have great repley value, I hope this one has more replay value

Strong rumor (especially this late) that the new Nintendo console is just called "Nintendo". I support this choice 200%. What do we call the 360? "The Xbox". We call the PS3 "The PlayStation". What did everyone call the NES? "The Nintendo". Nintendo started losing their identity all the way back to GameCube (which was a ripoff of the Mac G4 Cube). There's a reason that a lot of former Nintendo kids don't even realize that the Wii is a Nintendo console (which by this point is probably a good thing). They didn't even put their logo on the box. Time for Nintendo to stop trying to be Apple, and just be themselves. Bring on "The Nintendo".

And for the love of God, bring back the red logo. No more fu*king iLite horsesh*t.
