E3 07

[Balmung2]

Let's consolidate the talk here, because most of the E3 threads on specific information can be covered in that game's thread, or, here!

So, Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft- on the first day, how excited are you right now? Right now- only Nintendo has held their conference, and it was almost kickass. A little dry at times, but still amazing. Wii Fit, SSBB/Super Mario Galaxies with release dates, trailers for the Olympics and the new Mario Kart. Lots. Sony will be holding their conference soon, so be ready. Sadly, G4tv are the only ones showing it on tv >.>

Yeah, and a new Halo 3 trailer.

Halo 3 and GOW on PC was great on the Microsoft Press Conference. Nintendo shows some really good stuff. What makes me want to run and buy a Wii right now was when they announced Ghost Squad using the zapper! Then Sony showed Killzone 2 that looks amazing and the best part was MGS4!!! I was so happy when they showed the trailer! *cheers loudly*

[Balmung2]

Thing is, they were almost flatly saying that BUY MSG4 because it is amazing, has great grpahics, and is a part of an amazing series...but only get it from us. Becuase...we're having it first- er EARLY. Yeah. It's coming out soon for us.

It's not exclusive :p.

GAWD, SO EXCITED ABOUT SSBB RELEASE...

Must of missed the part of the conference where Kojima said it's a PS3 exclusive. Or you mixed up Unreal Tournament III with MGS4.

Sony had the best press conference, as I've been saying 07/08 is the year for PS3 to shine and shine it did so many great games coming out for it over the remainder of this year and early next year.

They didn't. I was implying that they were hiding the fact that it isn't exclusive. Anyways, I agree and disagree. For PS3 owners, this was probably amazing to them, and really rocked their world. To many people who don't own it- meh. I don't have one, and there are some nice things, but I am still drawn more to the wii (which I do own though).Xbox360 was the most dissappointing. Was just kinda...Halo 3 and GoW. There were some other little things, but not much else. Nintendo's conference just finally gave us some answers. Which people were needing. Still not liking G4tv, they're looney.

I do love how they went from Mario and Sonic at the Olympics, then said something along the lines of" speaking of mario and sonic" then introduced Brawl. <3
Hint?

I couldent wake up early enough for Nintendo's. Sony's was the best though. I heard all nintendo did wasd talk about sales, games we know about and wii fit. Sony's BEST things were probaly the new MGS 4 trailor and the new Killzone 2 trailor. Microsoft showed games we already knew about. The reason Killzone 2 trailor was so important is that the trailor was so close to the 05 one. Ive never seen the Killzone 2 05 trailor, but i heard the game looked too good to be true. MGS 4 trailor was nice since we dident know much about it.

Its cool hoq MGS 4 is having a simultanious worldwide release. Has that ever been done? Im going to have to read the sotry of the last 3 MGS games. I was going to buy sons of libery, but i wasted my money on DMC 3. Unreal tournament is the game that PS3 can use mods for. That PSN game they showed off is coo, chromeron or somthing. Does anyone know when Bandai Namco is going to present there games?

[TheEnigma]

what about that assassin's creed demo. that looked so kick ass! can't wait til it comes out.

[Dot Hack Crono]

Hiding what they came out and said that MGS4 is exclusive and will remain exclusive. Any how I don't own a PS3 or any next gen system as of yet I've been leaning towards the PS3 and after the press conference yesterday I'm leaning towards it more, the Wii has nothing of interest to me and for the 360 only Left 4 Dead interested me.

But besides the titles I was definitely going to get on the PS3 a lot of the stuff they shown that I initially wasn't interested in got me interested like Infamous, Fracture, Folklore, Kyle & Lynch, Uncharted, Haze and even Home and Warhawk peaked my interest and I normally don't care for any thing that has to do with online gaming.

And even thinking about getting a PSP now since will be able to hook it up and play on the tv. So IMO Sony had to deliver and they did it.
