OH NO!!! KOJIMA takes the stage
LOL @ “exclusively on consoles and PCs.” my heart jumped in my chest when i first read “exclusively on…” lmao you bastard.
i guarantee Forza 3 won’t look better than Gran Turismo 5. it might not even look better than GT5P.
Forza 3 looked like an XBL arcade game. Very unimpressed. No wonder there’s damage physics. Can’t be hard to pull off in such an unimpressive engine.
ill agree about the graphics…. but on a physics and customization level forza is untouched right now.
looks great but it’s not the best looking racing game.
Forza 3 demo was LOADS of bullshit… I can’t belive M$ got that low. They were low before but this is whole new level of bullshit. Best Graphics and Physics… LOL
Also love the PC and XBOX360 exclusive
“SquareEnix is here. Here we go” i was telling myself “please leave and don’t come back, you have caused enough damage ” lol
Facebook??? Why??? I really have enjoyed the presentation up until now….I dont need facebook on a console…Oh and Alan Wake is fucking awesome!
I know im sooooo excited to play Alan Wake now… I have kind of avoided most of the stuff people have talked about in the past… but wow that games gonna be fun….
Facebook and Twitter… M$ knows what he’s doing.
Tell me he didnt just fuck up the name….of Metal Gear Solid
Yes he did sir, yes he did….
wow the next mgs on 360, I KNEW IT THE MOMENT I SAW Don Mattrick
Metal Gear XBOX360. That was expected. But is it exclusive. That word was not said.
Yeah its not exclusive…. but they did say the franchise… which could mean we will see all of the MGS games on the xbox…. maybe 1 2 n 3 as downloadable?? If they actually meant the MGS series.
I can’t see Sony outdoing this press conference.
I’m speechless. With all this I cant see Sony closing the gap at all in 09.
GG?
I CAN SEE THEM OUTDOING THIS PRESS CONFERENCE. BUT NOT CLOSE THE GAP
Are you serious, Anthony? The biggest game they announce is a multiplat, which everyone was saying because of the pressure Konami was giving Kojima was going to happen anyways; in short:
-Metal Gear with no Kojima and no Snake
-Halo with no Chief
-Natal With no sense of what Microsoft is doing because full-body motion control isn’t all that great; if I wanted to skateboard, I’d go fricking outside and do it; there’s a limit to what games should do before people realize that you could be doing the exact same thing without scraping a rut in your rug.
Take a hint from the Wii: everyone though it was the bee’s knees… until they got sick of jumping around like a baboon to play a game. I was hoping that Microsoft would do something like the Sixaxis, because there are some really creative uses for the Sixaxis that has been done already, but now the 360 is becoming like the Wii; and will probably drop-off like the Wii if they go headlong into motion control.
and the rest we didn’t care for or kinda knew already.
7/10; Microsoft is a great company that is capable of so much more.
I think Kojima will be involved with Metal Gear: Rising… and it should still be good even without snake. Snake wasn’t in every metal gear game…
Also Natal has the potential to be REAL big but potential is just word we need to SEE it to believe it first.
THE WII IS DEAD
That’s nonsense. it’s not default controller. The whole XBOX360 experience is not built around that system of controls. But that technology is good.
WELL AFTER SEEING THAT I DON’T SEE THE NEED FOR A WII, DO YOU? NO BALANCE BOARD, NO MOTION SENSOR +, WHAT ELSE IS THERE
CASUAL THIRD PARTIES GAMES HAVE A NEW HAVEN NOW
Yeah now all they need is for the word to get out about the motion control and have people spark an interest… this is exactly why so many wiis were sold with lesser control ability…. very cool… but lets see if they can sell it and bring in the casuals.
I’M NOT THE BIGGEST MICROSOFT FAN OUT THERE, BUT ALL I KNOW IS WHEN THEY HAVE A PRODUCT THEY WILL LET EVERY ONE KNOW, “OH YEAH, I’M A PC”
Yeah Natal seems nice but i just hope the shovelware doesn’t load onto the 360’s doorstep now…. It’s really gonna be a direct competition between that and the Wii.
good thing about the 360 having live is that if it is shovelware…. you probably can get it on Live Arcade and wont have to deal with all the overpriced shovelware.
@ OGG
Yeah no extra cost for some stupid peripheral! Just the Natal! One time fix!
Sony dosnt need to outdo microsoft…its not a competition
This guy kills me. More particles than KZ2? Seriously, why do you feel the need to constantly slight PS3 exclusives? Whatever. Very meh show. The camera tech is cool and Alan Wake looks official but other than that the show was ho hum.
Oh yeah, big ups to Valve for making a L4D game with African Americans as the protagonists.
maybe it’s just that KZ2 is arguably the best looking console game this generation and, its particle effects were one of the things that really stood out on it?
i mean, when something great comes along, people usually tend to compare it to the best in its department. and right now, KZ2 is ARGUABLY the best in its department.
Nah, it’s that Tor just has to diss PS3 exclusives to create the “conflict” that he and HHG have going. It’s all WWE like. I don’t take him seriously in it.
YEAH THE PRESENTATION WAS MEH, APART FROM THE MOTION THING, EVEN METAL GEAR PREDICTABLE, HEY COME TO THINK OF IT WHERE WAS BIG BOSS THEY ONLY SHOWED RAIDEN. ALL I CAN SAY IS MOTION SENSOR IS IN GOOD HANDS NOW. THE WII WAS LAKING IN GAMES. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL USE IT ON NON CASUAL GAMER
Yeah i was watching live on G4 Tor completely blew that out of proportion. It didn’t look that great i was actually impressed more by the snowmobile scene then the fucking snow which really wasn’t breathtaking.
true true
Finally some honesty! And it’s no fanboyism; the game is coming to PS3 as well. I’m not hating but trying to compare the snow effects to KZ2’s desert stage just comes off as insane.
And the snowmobile scene was awesome looking. I really liked the part when you’re on the rope being lifted out of the building and it’s exploding all around you. Very cinematic.
Lifendz…The presentation is KILLER and microsoft and their console owners have alot to look forward too, Stop complaining about how someone is posting news. Would you like it better if the protagonists in the game where all white?? How about all blue??? or maybe green!?
Fuck the eyetoy, fuck nital…I want my controler…That said…that thing looks pretty cool…oh and this “Milo” Demenstration looks weird…and like anyperson who likes this needs a real friend…not a visual one.
its not about milo tho… its about the possibilities this could offer… picture a Shenmue where you could interact with the people in the world like that… now that would be amazing.
Yeah but that kind of depth would require loads of space… Milo sounds nice but i don’t think gaming is ready for it. I would need to see something really immersive the whole bit they showed really had me like “meh”. Seriously thats all i could think and say. I’m not really interested in that i just want to play my games if you don’t show me something with Milo that i can use now or with the current type of games i like then why show me at all? I understand it’s a demo but thats why im not hype…
Yeah that Milo showing is more like a demo for the publishers tho… especially since they said the kits would be heading out for the camera as of today… so it will be interesting to see what some companies do with those possibilities….
lol also will be interesting to see the trash that will be produced.lol
there was nothing on that paper…lol
TORRENCE VS MILO….Hey torrence call his mother a whore see what happens…a true A.I. Test
OR TELL HIM HE WAS ADOPTED
I WONDER IF YOU CAN KILL MILO AND REPLACE HIM WITH A SUPER MODEL
LETS SEE HOW N4G IS DOING AFTER THE MG RAIDEN ANNOUNCEMENT…
@ Candid Anthony
You were really that impressed? Really i wasn’t,
Rock Band Beatles (one exclusive song)
MW2 (two exclusive maps)
Milo (meh not that interesting on a games front)
Natal (looks really cool but will this push more Wii type shovelware?)
ODST (ummm i wasn’t really stoked, it looked okay)
Alan Wake (Too max payne-ish i guess i over-hyped the game, it still looks interesting though)
Forza 3 (looks good, the video editing was bullshit though)
Twitter, Facebook (Not my cup of tea but im sure there are those will love it)
MGS Rising (That’s the MEGATON BABY!)
The ability to watch videos and sports (only in the UK) with your friends (meh i like to watch movies in full screen i can care less about you or anyone elses avatar watching with me if you can change it to watch full screen then it would be interesting to me other then that meh.)
Overall i think it was pretty good it’s just i think i was just over hyped only the MGS Rising Got me pumped. Actually i was pissed with Splinter Cell it looks tame compared to MGS. The game doesn’t look that hot, i was expecting much more then marking a fucking room clear! The torture was cool but the graphics looked tame as well. Ubisoft WHY!!!!!!!
dude if you dont think splinter cell looks good… then I think your crazy…. Metal Gear is awesome looking and does have the 1 up on splinter cell in that department… but the interactivity they showed along with how fluid the gameplay looked… I havnt seen that in MGS4… plus they are different games all around.
Cant wait to see splinter cells online… hopfully when I watch the ubisoft show.
*wow read your comment again your really sippn on the haterade dios…. Really Alan Wake didnt impress you and make you interested? wow
sorry splinter cell game play looks shity
now the CG cut scenes look good
Nah i’m sorry but they delayed Splinter Cell and came up with THAT! That wasn’t that impressive im sorry like i said the interrogation control was gangster but that’s it. Really were you that impressed with Sam’s new mark technique? Or him sneaking through a city? Now MGS was the shit! and MW2 other then that it was kind of a side note. I’m happy Forza is coming but i wasn’t that blown away… they killed me with that bullshit video editing video they showed. You know damn well that was scripted…
Candid Anthony sleeps with 360 in his ass
Microsoft press conference 7.5/10
Okay, I lol’ed
LOL AT KOJIMA “WOAH, I DIDN’T SAY SOLID SNAKE” “I SAID RIZEN”,DON “OH OF COURSE” (PARAPHRASED)
LOL N4G is under maintenance when I try and check it out lol
LOL YOU’D THINK PEOPLE WOULD GET USED TO IT AFTER LAST YEARS E3 FINAL FANTASY 13 ANNOUNCEMENT.
BOTTOM LINE MGS NOT SONY EXCLUSIVE. NEVER WAS, NEVER WILL BE.
please get that 360 dick out your and breath
halo shit look weak
Final Fantasy XIII didnt look that good
Alan Wake Shown 5 years for that
Splinter Cell what joke game looks like it can run on the ps2
Tony Hawk lol
CRACKDOWN 2 was cool 2 here
Modern Warfare 2 look good day 1 for me
Microsoft press conference 7.5/10
You know what the FFXIII footage looked really good but seriously it didn’t look as good as the demo on the PS3… Also come on really they should have shown some more of L4D2! Black people rise! Nah but i forgot about L4D2 that’s gonna kickass!
Halo shit?…. an expansion pack… dont expect a graphical leap… story seems cool and the added Reach beta could be cool… along with the fact all the halo 3 maps including the map packs are in odst. For any Halo fan this will be a must buy…. dont be a hater because you may not be a fan.
Final Fantasy looks like final Fantasy… Im not a fan of FF… but looks interesting.. im sure tons of people are excited for it.
Alan Wake… 5 years on a 30 person team… not a huge 100+ person development from a studio…. Game looks to be really sweet at story telling and seems to be showing us a new way of presentation in games.
Splinter Cell – Your obviously not a splinter cell fan… and must not have been watching the same show because sometimes the difference between the scripted scenes and the actual game such as in the batroom were undistinguishable… not demo but some…. will be very interesting to see what they do with the game especially since we didnt get a true feel for how open the environment really is…. Kind of reminds me of what the next Hitman game should be like.
Tony Hawk…. hmmm cool idea.. not for me… but im sure skateboard fans will like it… its the wii era… Pheripherals are king.
Crackdown 2…. I want to see gameplay… im sure it will look like crackdown and be sweet but id like to see whats new… and maybe a real story line this time around… or some more multiplayer goodness… who knows…
Modern Warfare 2 looks like a ton of fun… the environments for this game seem a lot more varied this time around and really looks like there could be some great action scenes… and good locations for multiplayer maps…. Sniping in the snow with a snow suit anyone?
Great conference… finally a conference all about the games… and not charts.
Okay have you played Splinter Cell before? Whats so ground breaking with this one? Yeah he’s being dropped into a more “real” environment, okay he’s been there before but i guess they’ll be adding more characters to that environment. The gadgets should keep the game fresh that something Splinter Cell has always had. But you delay a franchise that was on the rise and they show some sub par gameplay and you call me a hater. I’m keeping it real it look okay. What blew you away?
Modern Warfare 2 was dope, L4D2 will be dope, Alan Wake looked…Okay i just wish i didn’t get the max payne feeling watching all that slow-mo. Shit i was waiting almost 5 years for this game. I’m still gonna get it because the story looks like it will be great.
Now Forza 3 looked good (im still pissed with that video bullshit do we look stupid?), ODST was okay what blew you away? Crackdown to me was meh i won’t judge the Crackdown 2 game because they just show CG.
Again FF, MW2, Tony hawk and the other half of the 10 games they shown were multiplat i was focusing on just microsofts exclusive front. We knew FF, MW2 and Tony Hawk was coming. We were guessing on Metal Gear but to get the confirmation was awesome. The Microsoft headline will either be Natal or MGS Rising.
Alan Wake looks to be a serious graphical powerhouse with great game play to match.
Splinter Cell also looks incredible and might actually succeed in CQC where games like Bourne have failed.
The motion camera and the Peter M. demo was amazing.. Being able to actually interact with the characters on screen and not in some cheezy EyePet monkey thing kind of way.
Crackdown 2! Hell yeah!
Left 4 Dead 2! Was really surprised and they better include a lot more chapters in this one.
Insta-stream 1080p video is a win same with the Last.FM integration.. I hope you can use Last.FM as in-game soundtrack.
9/10 I give this conference.
Last.FM in game would be cool… nice idea….but yeah L4D2… shocked… I didnt know what the game was… and household items etc… and chainsaws! lol … I also hope for more maps this time around….. but from what I just heard they will also have changing times of day and weather to add to the change in the maps each time you play them….. very cool… and im sure they will prob have the added downloaded content features in this retail and more
I dont watch movies on my 360… but instant streaming is a huge + …especially 1080p
I don’t and will not make a definative comment on how a game looks until its on my t.v. screen. Can’t wait to see what EA and Ubisoft show on G4
So true… really hard to tell from a stream video of a demo/video etc.. cant really be a big judge when you havnt seen it front of your face… im sure we will hear stuff from tor and HH etc from playing the games on the floor.
NEWS JUST IN: Kojima has just been assassinated!
Bayonetta really looks like it should have been made 5 years ago…NOT INTERESTED
What threw you off? I love the game trailers! She’s everything Dante should have been…
what happen 2 lost planet 2
my guess it will be on the Sony stage tomorrow
360 line is still weak
No…its not Chase it really isnt “Weak”
no point man…. some people are just pro Sony…. meh their loss I guess
You don’t have to be Pro-Sony to have a “different” opinion. I’m speaking on my behalf. After watching the conference on TV i felt it was good but it was also lacking. Damn did Don Mattrick make me feel like i was watching a cracked out Tom Cruise! He sucks! I actually liked Balmer better
Dios read the comment… he was commenting about Chase….
i have a 360 none of the games turn me on
now if they would of 2 said lost planet 2 was an exclusive
a day 1 purchase for me but its not
the line up is weak
more halo crap, booooooooo
copy copy copy
on to Sonys conference weoo … e3
…… tomorrow that is.
Nah man EA and Ubisoft have conferences today as well! Hopefully some more Splinter Cell and we know we’ll see some Assassins creed 2.
The Halo expansion looked nice but nothing special.
Splinter Cell looked dope. When dude was getting headshots left and right and using the lamp to take out the enemies and lights, I thought that shit was hot.
Metal Gear Raiden. The announcement didn’t really impact me like I thought it would. It’s cool that 360 only fans will get a taste of the Metal Gear series.
Alan Wake looked really dope. This game is at the top of list of 360 titles I want. Looks like it will be interesting and in depth.
The social add ons are cool. Nice to see Last.fm on 360. Love that app.
The Motion control video was alright. Looked like a CES showing. Technically, it’s amazing but not something I would like to use on games. I really liked the face recognition though. The Milo thing was stupid to me though.
All in all, Microsoft’s conference was nice. Nothing too big but satisfying. I give Microsoft conference a 8/10
OOOO maybe ubisoft will show me Ghost Recon today….. *Hopes* lol
what happen Mass effect 2
Mass effect 2 and lost planet 2 will be on the ps3
just playing
but lost planet 2 will be on the ps3
I hear Lost Planet 2 will be show at Sony’s booth, im not sure if they will announce it at the conference one can assume.
If mass effect 2 goes multi-plat that will be a Megaton! But i doubt it
Shit wish I was at E3 to race and win that BMW M3 they are having as the prize for Need For Speed
Need For Speed looked real good
WTF!! Happened?!?!?!?
Did Torrence have go into cardiac-arrest when Kojima hit the stage, or something….
That was his last entry then…nothing…
He promised us live coverage….whats up?
No…seriously, is he o.k.?
I compared MW2 particles to KZ2 because KZ2 has the best particles on a level. I’d now probably give it to MW2. That’s not dissing PS3 at all. Think of me saying, “Is the snow level in MW2 the KZ2 desert level particle killer?”
You guys are cracking me up saying Forza 3 didn’t look that good. The video editing was bs but graphically, it all looked like 1080p. Looked as sharp asGT5p but I don’t even care because you can edit videos and upload them in HD now. It’s gonna be sick.
Natal was hot…
You know how I feel. i’ll talk more about it later.
It always seems to be a first party battle now. Does it matter if a game is 1st or 3rd if the game is fucking awesome? Answer that question.
I agree tor, the last part of the video for Forza 3 was bs, but until GT5 comes out Forza has my vote.
The only gripe I have is with Alan Wake, the game play and graphics are amazing, but the story telling and a small part of this game reminds me of Max Payne.
Natal is refreshing, but I wonder if they will use it for hard core games.
Let’s see if Sony can match
@tor Natal will die out just like that movie game they show last year
@J_tastic match what
If sony can match microsoft’s press conference. in terms of games and game play
LOL Really Tor, Really? Of all the things during the showing you hype the snow? I’m just busting your balls to me the best parts where the Snowmobile and when your ziplined up through the exploding castle. That’s just gangsta!
Yeah Natal was cool i hope for the best. Whats the sense in having it do the same shit the Wii does. I wanna see it cross mainstream and hard core.
Forza 3… Looked good but they didn’t show us really that much. We know it’s gonna have customization, we know they’ll be damage. What i liked that they added was the video uploading that’s cool. But i wanna know what they’re drinking when they shown the video OF the video editing and the part where they say “the most action in a racing game this generation”? They got hype when the car flipped, LOL. Also i didn’t catch were you can upload the videos, youtube? xbox live?
To answer your question about 1st or 3rd party. Not really. It doesn’t matter but I do think it matters if your showing about half of YOUR press conference referencing titles that are multi-platform and aren’t exclusive timed or otherwise. Really it isn’t a first party battle if you really want to go there it’s a platform battle. People compare which platform offers the best games, service and additional amenities and content. Exclusives play a role in that battle as do 1st party development, most likely obviously because they would be exclusive.
A game that no one mentioned that i think will be pretty cool is that EPIC game shadow something. It looked like a new age contra!
How is Kojima going to fit an mgs game on 7gb? If he wants the same quality he achieved with mgs4 thats going to require atleast 3-4 disc. Hopefully 360 fans will support this title and realize these games are more than just “movies”.
da dios pretty much summed up my thoughts.
8/10
That Star Wars Old Republic video was fuckn EPIC!
that was some good shit
holy shit that milo video looked insane. The ai is awesome
it’s a shame that that video with milo wasn’t the real deal, it looked more like a concept, i just realise the screen wasn’t reacting to the camera, what i mean is that that footage with the woman and milo was tempered with. they just pulled a “killzone 2 E3 2005″ on us.
nice concept though, i hope see them pull it off
its possible but how would you know that.Everything seemed to be insync. both the boys actions and her looked fine
i know the first time i though it was, but it’s not impossible to have a cg character interact with a persone in a video made for a presentation. i would have loved to see it live but that wasn’t the case. peter molyneux most of the time overpromis on his ideas. it was just too perfect if you now what i mean
Indeed Peter does *gimaces at Fable*. They said the will be holding closed door demos’ througout E3 so hopefully we get more feedback.
Okay so Far Ubisoft snoozed us all! Joel McHale was cool but other then that they snoozed us. Assassins creed trailer looked real cool but ahem no gameplay. The showing of Splinter Cell looked better this time around. Honestly im still disappointed with this game graphically, it looked…okay. On to what they shown gameplay wise it looks good, back to the game we played in love. I like how he shot the chandelier and was able to take out the lights and the enemies all in a shot. That was cool, i also LOVE how you can use broken glass to peak under doors and i think around corners (not sure about the last point). The new additions didn’t i didn’t really care for or taken a liking to. The ability to see your “last known position” to me isn’t needed and it kind of takes away from classic Splinter Cell gameplay. Seriously knowing where the enemy last scene you by showing an chalk outline of your character in that position and place is really…unneeded. Again i have to say the ‘mark” ability is still not catching me. I really think it’s well, unneeded. I’m sure they’ll make good use of this possibly when in a more densely populated area where you need to take out specific targets but you need to keep them “marked” amongst the crowds.
Oh Ubisoft next time tell us to bring pillows… PLEASE!
That Splinter Cell: Conviction was Spectacular!
ODST is going to lead sales for a single console.
Halo:Reach got me fired up.
Forza is going to be great.
Alan Wake, I was hatin on it, they came with it.
SONY fans across the world all died with Kojimas announcement.
Its going to take a tall order to beat M$.
Ubisoft’s conf was a snoozer. Ngai Croal and Geoff Keighly were sitting in front of us. I dozed off and so did Ngai. It was a complete waste of time. Ass II trailer was hot but NO GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE. all they want to do is make Wii games. Red Steel 2 was hot except for one thing…no blood, no gore, no violence. He impaled a guy during the demo and not one drop of blood or a scratch. I talked with the designer after the show and it seems he wants to put the gore in the game but Ubisoft won’t let him.
Destructoid party was hot.
Davis Daily coming right up.
You should have asked WTF was up with showing the same footage of Splinter Cell that Microsoft showed. They did show a little bit more of the game but i was like come on Ubi show some more shit. Also NEVER! NEVER Again should James Cameron be allowed to talk on an E3 stage. He was actually worse then Don Mattrick of Microsoft i though Don sucked the air out of the room Oh God did Cameron snooze us with his AVATAR talk. Shit do i even need to see the movie after that?
@Torrence:
Ask UBI about Ghost Recon & Rainbow Six?
I think the M$ press conference was good for all the wrong reasons. To me Project Natal was better than any of their software line-up. Splinter Cell was cool, but Alan Wake’s narration kind of annoyed me. I really didn’t like that SC seemed to have the easiest auto aim in history and I didn’t like that both told you what to do. It’s like have a built in, on screen walkthrough. Hopefully you can turn that stuff off, but I doubt it.
Yeah that’s what im talking about with Splinter Cell! It’s like everyone else has some type of wool over their eyes. The new additions were, pardon my slang Corny. If the text on the wall was hints to the story line and not to what you actually have to do it would appeal to me. If all their going to do is throw subliminal hints up on curtains and other surfaces then i think it’s a wasted addition. Also seriously was that not a subpar effect graphically? Comeon we waited 3 years (since double agent)and this is what we got graphic wise ODST looked better then that. Modern Warfare 2 looked better then both of them! I hope your wrong with the auto aim because that would be just lame. I think i know which part your talking about the part where he shot the chandelier, dropped down shot one dude in the head after doing a complete 180 and then found another dude near some steps and shot him.
The thing with Alan Wake to me isn’t the story i want it to have a strong story. It just felt like i was watching Silent Hill/Max Payne. I could deal with the light being the weakness and everything i just was like why the fuck is this guy slowing time down!
I dont think he slowed down time tho… I think that was the game itself… like everything in the game… because he went slow mo too… kind of the cinematic effect they tried to show off
