E3 2009

[luke-o]

The Mario game better not be yet another sports title.

Prepare to be dissapointed.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

edit- Just go to the JTV gaming section. Should be coverage. (Room I posted seem to stop showing.)

Streaming E3 coverage. And I'm guessing maybe other rooms will open up later in the gaming section. If the IGN coverage is indeed members only.

It used to be, but that was about 5 years ago when I actually visited IGN.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Tony Hawk ain't silly (or would that be Activision) cashing in on the $100+ accessory craze they started with Guitar Hero. MUST BUY PLASTIC SKATEBOARD!!!! (Not).

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

"We are targeting a spring 2010 release" for FFXIII on Xbox 360.

Sweet!

Microsoft stream from their website - the Halo stuff will be at the end no doubt

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Splinter Cell: Conviction is now up - about time, its only been... 2 FUCKING YEARS since it was announced or even murmured about.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Right - remember when they showed the footage of Splinter Cell a year ago, then the fans went emo so Ubisoft ran away to their cave to change it? Well its still the same, its still '24' but not 24. Sam Fisher has very much binged on 7 seasons with of 24 and turned all Jack Beuer killer instinct.

 

[KingPK]

Sweet, streaming music for free in the fall.

SWEET, the ability to add movies to the Netflix queue through the system!

 

[Broward83]

FUCK YOU UK!... FUCK YOU!

 

[KingPK]

Hey, they finally are rolling out watching Netflix with your friends.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

FUCK YOU UK!... FUCK YOU!

Wow we get Sky!

Zune can fuck off
Facebook can fuck off
Netflix can fuck off
ergh ergh ergh

EDIT: twitter can fuck off too

Microsoft doing a good job of whoring the xbox out to all social stalker websites.

EDIT: Metal Gear Solid can fuck off too

 

[KingPK]

MGS! Holy shit!

But it's about Raiden? Booo.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Fair enough, its a new MGS, glad its not just MGS4

 

[KingPK]

And virtual tire changing has finally made it's way into a video game.

This looks cool, but I kind of doubt it'll work THIS well.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

oh dear, Microtendo, oh dear.

 

[KingPK]

Seriously, if they can pull off anything close to that trailer, I'll be really fucking impressed.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Hmm, I'll be impressed too, considering how poorly 'You're in the Movies' reacted at times.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Sénior Speilbergo!

Coming this Fall, the new digitally remastered Xbox360 Special Edition with bonus features and an extra 15 features misssed from the original version.

You know I shouldn't be surprised he's pimping the motion camera out, he's been saying for a month now (maybe even longer) that Video Games and Movies will eventually merge into one.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

So, now that the Xbox has more gimmicks then, well, half the WWE Roster... seriously, Gimmickbox360... really? Do you think they'll get even half of the Nintendo crowd they're hoping to grab?

 

[KingPK]

Goddamn, that Paint Party demo was cool.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

How long/often will you play that? 15 minutes? Wouldn't be out of place on the Nintendo Wii at all.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Peter Molynuex with Pedophile Trainer 360 game - nice.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Here's Nintedo's line up for tomorrow:

MARIO & SONIC Hold Hands
MARIO & SONIC get married
MARIO & SONIC get divorced
MARIO & SONIC Argue over Custody of Yoshi and Tails

 

[BUTT]

It's too bad NeoGAF isn't loading now, I'd love to read about how Nintendo is doomed and all the casual gamers are going to flock to the 360 now that Microsoft has paired the simple controls the mass market is used to with the HD graphics they demand.

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Strangely, I think EA's conference is the one I'm looking forward too the most, they've really turned themselves around over the last 2 years. I'll admit that at times they fall into their old ways of shit games for top money with little or no care at times, but they've really produced some top games that normally you wouldn't consider them to.

Weather this is truely a change of heart, or IPs they acquired when they took over other studios and just thought 'Hey what the hell, its basically finished' remains to be seen.

It'll also be interesting to see how much longer Sony run the 'Wait and see' game with us in regards to titles and promises and all things glory the PS3 has to offer us in 10 years time type of deal.

 

[Smues]

MARIO & SONIC Argue over Custody of Yoshi and Tails

I'd rent that!

Use the Phoenix Wright engine and they've got a winner! OBJECTION! YOSHI!

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Sonic would be fucked if Mario called the 'Chao's' as character witnesses - at least the sonic from my games. I used to let those fuckers die all the time >.<

 

[Smues]

If the chao's were called a character witnesses I would have to PRAY that the game is text only and doesn't have voices. CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO CHAO!!!!

Plus those little fuckers would probably run all around the court room causing trouble.

On the flip side Sonic could point out all of those times that Mario just let Yoshi fall down a pit and left him to die while he ran on to finish the level alone.

 

[KingPK]

I'm getting the feeling that Sony's presser is mainly going to be about the rumored PS3 Slim and the new slimmer PSP. "Hey kids, we basically have no more exclusives now that Kojima has bailed on us, but now you can buy smaller versions of our shit!"

 

[Smues]

Yeah I'm sure excited for details on the new PSP that doesn't play UMD games.
