I guess it's more of a spiritual successor. Being the third game ever made By Team Ico, right after Ico and SOTH, makes it easy to think of the game as a sequel. But, it's true that we probably wont see game mechanics from past games.

does anyone have any information on when the Big Three Press Conferences are?

Makes it easy for idiots to think that, sure. And SOTH is...?

Peanut · 05-26-2011, 06:02 PM

Again, pretty sad with the state of some of the people in this section. Thank God TMB will be hanging around.

~~AquaParade~~ · 05-26-2011, 07:34 PM

Cure and Peanut are insulting me one after another for a simple error? What a surprise

Yes, I meant "SOTC" And yes, I do like to think of The Last Guardian as a spiritual successor, not a sequel or a new ip ( Yes technically it is a sequel, but so far you can see similarities in all three ico games - i personally like to think they take place in the same world) .
Yes, yes,very sad that people rather point out a couple typo's/flaws to make me look dumb, then continue the actual discussion. Do you really think it was that "sad" that I called The Last Guardian a sequel peanut? It's really not a big deal lol. Cure, you really can't figure out "SOTC" is what I meant when I mention The Last Guardian and Ico in the same post? Ha Get real guys. Continue the discussion if you want, but don't make meaningless post's directing spite at me, unless you are going to say something useful as well. You are grasping for straws if you are trying to call me out over tiny things like that. Moving on...

The rest of the games I listed convey my point: I'm stoked to hear about awesome sequels.

*Cure* · 05-26-2011, 07:48 PM

You're so ignorant it HURTS. Going by your mentality, Bulletstorm is a sequel to Gears of War cuz it was pretty much the same team. Awful.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 05-26-2011, 08:35 PM

Actually that's the whole reason I want to play it. I love bullsh*t shooters. The more realistic, the less I care.

I said I personally like to think of it as a spiritual successor, after accidentally calling it a sequel. That isn't ignorant. I am not defining how anyone else needs to feel about it. It's a personal opinion. Do you really want to continue on that arguement?...

What has me most hyped about E3 is all the surrounding rumors around Metal Gear Solid, Hideo Kojima, and even the fishy Platinum games rumor. Anyone have specific hopes for the Metal Gear Solid series? Peanut, I am curious as to what future you see for the series, if any.

*The Stryker* · 05-26-2011, 10:39 PM

I really think that MGS needs to go away. 4 was a good end to the series and brought everything together in typical crazy fashion. They pussed out on the ending but there are no more stories to tell in that universe as far as I'm concerned.

Announcing MGS5 would just show that Kojima has absolutely NOTHING else.

Peanut · 05-26-2011, 10:50 PM

AquaParade, don't feel so privileged as to think I was talking about you. Your last horsesh*t argument pretty much guarantees I skip your posts until someone tells me you said something else stupid.

This x100. I think Kojima is pretty tapped on ideas, though, so I wouldn't be terribly surprised if he did decide to do another one. However, I feel like a sequel to MGS4 would pretty much negate anything decent that happened in 4. I mean, the game was pretty much negated by the absolutely horrendous post-game cutscene wrap-up anyways, but why make it worse?

I think MGS is done, but Kojima is not. Personally, he should bring back the Policenauts franchise, but it'll never happen since it was kind of never brought over here.

Peanut · 05-26-2011, 11:08 PM

Kojima is f*cking insane in a way that kinda doesn't work so well anymore. I think people are sorta over that brand of insanity at this point. He may have ideas here or there, but I don't know that we'll ever see him create something as large at Metal Gear ever again.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 05-27-2011, 02:00 AM

Aside from the fact that they were good, Kojima's games were mainstream popular because he made cinematic video games experiences that were movie like and had high production values in an era where that was rare and quite difficult to do. Now that we have a gazillion western studios doing the same thing but arguably better, Kojima's brand of whacky doesn't fly like it used to.

I'm not saying Metal Gear Solid is bad. It's amazing, but it's done. If they make anymore, it's just because Konami needs to print more money.

Word is the NGP has been gutted to be more price competitive. The 512MB ram has been slashed by half, the 16GB of internal memory has been removed. This would SUCK. Graphics are the only thing the NGP really has going for it, and this will affect it's ability to have multi-platform releases with console titles. I'm honestly hoping for some portable versions of console games like MvC3. I hope this is just a rumor.

Remember when Sony scaled back the PS3's amount of cores in the cell, and stripped the second HDMI port off the machine? We could have had multi-screen multiplayer off one machine. Sucks.

~~AquaParade~~ · 05-27-2011, 03:48 AM

Peanut, I think we both know you intended a little bit of your post towards me. But hey, you can deny it ;]

I know what you guys mean about Metal Gear Solid though. If anything, I would just love a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 with Guns of the Patriots mechanics. I could call it a Metal gear-day, after that. The story, setting, and action of 3 combined with the smooth controls of 4 would make for a perfect Metal Gear game.

How do you guys feel about Peacewalker probably coming to PS3? Anyone played it? I want to be excited for it seeing as its sort of a direct sequel to Snake Eater's story, but the fact that they took out mechanics like crawling on the ground, scares the **** out of me.

If you are a fan of the comics, it will blow your socks off! If not, it's still an enjoyable game.

*Turo602* · 05-27-2011, 11:07 AM

I want to hear more about Max Payne 3. I hope its not like what we saw years ago. They made him bald and with a beer gut (he almost looks like Sam Fisher from Double Agent). What the hell. And I'm also not a fan of the setting. Sam Lake was the best Max Payne. Rockstar don't ruin the series. I expect it to be a good game either way but probably not a good Payne game. His voice and the music were so awesome. The noire feel and bullet time must return.

I'm also excited to see more of the Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword, Super Mario 3DS, Resident Evil Revelations, Sonic Generations, and Batman Arkham City. E3 is gonna be so great.
