So, aside from Mario Kart, I didn't really miss anything? Both that and Galaxy look very nice though. Mario Kart has nasty graphics, but the level design seems fantastic and the steering wheel thing could be fun.

And TMB, think of me when you get laid.

I posted in the fan section for the first time in months. and nobody comments, because its not anime! What the balls!

Now back to games.

****ing tetris? Yeah. I know.

MGS4 is officially pushed back to '08. Also, the Gamespot article refers to it as "the PS3-exclusive title". I don't know what to really make of that, since I guess the game's been "PS3 exclusive" all the while, with the possibility of that eventually being incorrect sort of looming over it. So maybe it's still just going off that.

European release list for first-party Wii and DS games.

Nothing really worth noting except a release date for Phantom Hourglass (October 19th) and the announcement of Advance Wars DS 2.

Oh, and of course...

Sony wins because of Chewbacca!
Sony's conference was a bit worse than Microsoft's but both were dimensions above Nintendo's abortion. Killzone looked great, MGS 4.... not so much.

It's exclusive. I guess I lose.




...How very, very depressing this is.

Yanno, I was expecting it to be exclusive too, then Konami comes out with this bull**** about "Oh, we might have to make it multiplatform" only one day before they announce it's exclusive to that godawful PS3. What the hell is up with that?

So what is everyone looking forward to?
Seeing as I don't have a next gen system yet, I'm one of the 115 million or so PS2 owners whose really looking at what Nintendo and Microsoft have to offer. Nintendo, with their Wii system, is lookin' ok and the Wii caught my interest early on, yet the 360 has the most exclusives and probably the widest variety of games that appeal to me. So yeah, it is quite a decision to make, but I just hope that answers the question. Hopefully, if things work out, I'll get a 360 or a Wii for Christmas.

I haven't seen any new media yet, but why not?

*E* Yeah, OK, just watched the new video. The English voice acting is pretty retarded. Never really noticed how ridiculous Hayter's voice sounds.

Don't know the exact URL, but you should be able to find it by digging around www.konami.jp.

Believe me if it doesn't sell well on the PS3 expect to see it hit the 360, or the PC at very least.

Good. I like the classic tracks.

And guys, nothing is happening tomorrow. If you were at this E3.....my god it is depressing. People are having to ride shuttle buses like 15 miles through LA traffic just to go see all the demos in the hotels they spread them out in. Its fu*king depressing. Its like the ESA decided to do E3 one more year, but they decided to neuter it and make it such hell that they would beg the ESA to kill it rather than put us through this hell again.

I mean, dudes. G4 is filming the whole show live in a tent which is at the back side of a run down hanger they trned into a "Minee-3". Go outside and you'll see gangs. Its scary, depressing, and sad. E3 is dead. Go home folks.


Oh, and I played the 4 level Mario demo. It is God. Simply God. NiGHTS is Jesus. Its just like the original. I picked it up and just played it, and everything was just right, only better.

Thanks Mecha. I think you're outta your mind about the voice cast, but thanks. It's really nice to actually hear these voices coming out of the characters...that made it all the more real to me.

I guess I have until Early 2008 to figure out what the hell to do.

You know, it's funny, it hasn't been long since I was convinced that the MGS series had some of the best voice acting in any games. If I play them today I hardly understand why.

The Vamp vs. Raiden thing was cool but on the other hand I would prefer to have the possibility to participate in that battle rather than just being forced to watch.

I feel the exact same way. I think the voice acting in the other games still holds up, but MGS4 seems more realistic, more serious, more solemn, and the voices should reflect that. The current ones seem out of place here.

MeDDle gEArrr?!?!

In other news, the NA release date for Smash Bros. is now Dec. 3rd. Of course, this means nothing as us Europeans will not get the game until next year.
