RIIIDDDGGEEEE RAAACCCEERRR Five Year Anniversary! (E3 2011)

[Smues]

June 7-9, 2011. Los Angeles, CA.

Nintendo I believe has confirmed they will have a playable version of project cafe available. I also expect a lot of 3DS game hype. Sony may or may not have a playable NGP. Microsoft...??? No idea what they've got.

RIIDDDGGGEEEE RAAACCCEEERRRRRRRRR.

 

[KingPK]

Konami's presser is pre-recorded? BOO!

 

[Smues]

Pre-recording for E3 is one thing, but announcing that it'll be live streamed today and then just putting up a pre-recorded video is pretty lame.

 

[KingPK]

MGS 2 and 3 in HD for PS3 and 360. So what's the point of getting MGS3 for the 3DS?

 

[Smues]

You can use the 3DS camera to take pictures and use the picture as camouflage, that sounds neat.

 

[Smues]

MGS 2 and 3 in HD for PS3 and 360. So what's the point of getting MGS3 for the 3DS?

Besides the camouflage and the gyro sensor, the real answer is YOSHI!

 

[KingPK]

TRANSFARRING!!

Seriously, that whole Kojima segment was surreal. HE HAS FLOWCHARTS!!

Showing nothing on Metal Gear Rising is a bad sign about that game.

 

[luke-o]

"Hey guys! We’re holding a pre-recorded press conference to tell you that we’re-releasing games that came out a decade ago but with new and shiny graphics! That saves us coming up with anything new and inventive but still makes money! LOOK AT THE SHINY SHINY!!"

 

[KingPK]

I'll be able to watch the MS conference live before work tomorrow, so that's nice. I'm afraid it will be mostly "Hey, here's a bunch more Kinect titles to show all you people that bought one at Christmas that you didn't waste $150!"

 

[Thoth]

I was at the Xbox Tweetup with my girlfriend here in LA, and she won a pass to the Microsoft presser. Lucky.

 

[Kageho]

Damn. That's kinda nice.

I'm really hoping we get to see some new IPs at E3. While ol' IPs are good to have around, I like looking forward to new and inventive stuff.

 

[bps21]

I don't expect much from E3. Microsoft will push Kinect. Nintendo will do Nintendo things. Sony should give something unexpected to everyone for getting hacked. It would steal headlines from what looks to be a show about sequels and more sequels.

MGS 2 and 3 in HD for PS3 and 360. So what's the point of getting MGS3 for the 3DS?

Also included: Peace Walker full HD for PS3. I love that idea. I never got around to buying the PSP version. Not sure why they omitted the first game, though. Why not just rebuild the Twin Snakes version from Gamecube?

Silent Hill is also getting an HD collection featuring just Silent Hill 2 & 3.

 

[Mik]

Well there is supposedly going to be some info on FFXIII-2. I know the first one didn't go over well but I kinda loved it.

 

[fazzle]

So now they're supposedly going to announce a HD remake of Halo 1.


E3 2011: Making New Games is HARD.

 

[Smues]

E3 2011: Keeping your controller connected during your presentation is hard.

 

[Golgo]

Look at that, a shooter.

 

[Smues]

I'm not a big FPS guy, but that looked pretty awesome.

 

[fazzle]

I'm not a big FPS guy, but that looked pretty awesome.

Yeah but in a few hours when EA shows off Battlefield 3, MW3 will look like dog shit(graphically at least)

 

[fazzle]

Wait did that Tomb Raider demo actually look.....good?

 

[Smues]

Tomb Raider looked gorgeous. Too bad it's not out until late 2012.

EA Sports is next, bathroom break!

 

[fazzle]

Pretty sure absolutely nobody wants a Kinect Madden.

Or a Kinect ME3 for that matter either.


"We're starting a brand new adventure" ..with the third part of a trilogy. What?

 

[fazzle]

E3 2011: Not shoving pointless Kinect shit into our games is hard

 

[fazzle]

You know, I never thought of the possibility of a Fable/Lost crossover game before, but I'm glad to see the smoke monster is still able to get some work.

And i'm pretty sure those kids are gonna get the belt backstage for sucking so bad at that disneyland game

 

[fazzle]

"Well, we were gonna make a good game, but then Microsoft threw a shitload of money at us and we decided to make a Kinect game instead."

That's basically the theme of E3 so far.

 

[Smues]

Finger tracking on Kinect. Neat. And I don't mean that with any sarcasm.

 

[Smues]

Scanning in the toy worked really well. The toys movements matching hers...not so much.

 

[fazzle]

I can't wait to make my penis a new boss monster in a kinect game.

 

[Smues]

Hey look Kinect Sports 2, featuring all the sports that should have been in the first one.

 

[fazzle]

Ok probably alot of these videos have been, but that Kinect Sports "demo" was obviously way fucking prerecorded.


Edit: ..multiplayer dancing. aka, get drunk and put your friends in the hospital!
