Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

^ Well, in a short Twitter interview in March, Nomura said that the airship is up and running.

Unfortunately, I checked for the release date and it only said that it will be out in the Q4 for this year.

OMG THE AIRSHIP THATS SO AWESOME!!!!.....wait what???? Well in the end thats more information that I had before . I can only hope that we see something for the PS3 conference or they are holding back on it to surprise us??? I can only hope

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Thanks for that E3 lineup, I'm really looking forward to seeing the new Deus Ex especially.

Have you seen the E3 trailer yet? When my brother and I watched it, we were like, "Damn, that looks awesome! We are so going to get it."

Wow that does look really good. Pretty epic too! I've never played any of the other games but thats the way it has been for most of my Playstation games since this is my first playstation system. I've been playing a lot of games late in the series but have been doing ok, AC2 for example I played without playing AC1. Hopefully I could just pick up this game like that no problem

There is a rumor that a new MGS: Rising trailer will premiere at E3 and if you click on the link, you can preview the box art.

I read an article on Playstation Magazine that started that Deus Ex: Human Revolution is going to be the prequel for the first two games so no big deal.

Well that works out then. If its good enough of a game then there should be no problem with me getting into it since it is a prequel. That makes all my worries a lot less, lol. I gotta read the synopsizes for the other games then to at least get a feel for what the series is about.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Capcom posted what new contents to expect from MvC3 at E3:

1. Promotional Video
What you've all been waiting for! I hope you will get an appreciation for our dedication to the game when you watch it.

2. Promotional Video Preview
This will be released in the very near future.

3. 5 Gameplay Videos + ???
We went all out with the characters that will be revealed at E3. The "+ ???" is something we've put together exclusively for our Japanese fans (you'll know why when you see it...).

4. Character Artwork
Of course we'll have artwork for the newly revealed characters. I wonder how many that will be...?

5. Artwork from Shinkiro
Well-known artist Shinkiro (Capcom Vs SNK 2, Tatsunoko Vs Capcom Cross Generation of Heroes, etc) has provided some great new illustrations. He came through for us even though we didn't give him a whole lot of prior notice. You can expect his usual high quality. The artwork will be appearing in various locations around E3.

And finally, we will have a playable version of Marvel Vs Capcom 3 at E3! We wanted to give you a chance to get in some playtime as soon as possible.

Xbox 360 is going to have a slim version, which will have a 250 gig hard drive and built in Wi-fi. Project Natal now have an official name of Kinect. At least it's better than the rumored name of Wave. >.>

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood has the US release date of Nov. 16th.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

I don't own an XBOX so the conferences I'm really looking to see at E3 are Nintendo and Sony. That being said I'll watch the Microsoft one anyway just because its E3 and everything is awesome about it, lol. If anyone doesn't have G4 (like Kim ) and can't watch the conferences on TV then you can watch them on their website . http://e3.g4tv.com/e32010/pressconferences/ (When the press conference is available to be watched the letters for it will turn organge/gold instead of the white they are now )

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Some Zelda rumors were posted on a German site. This should hold us up until tomorrow when Nintendo has its press conference:

* Zelda Wii’s official title is “The Legend of Zelda” – there is no subtitle.

* The story is set several hundred years before Ocarina of Time and reveals how the Mastersword was created.

* The fairy-like girl, Zordiana, plays an important character in the game.

* The Hookshot has new abilities and will not pull you immediately to the target you aimed, and you can swing with it, like with the Grappling Hook from Wind Waker. The hookshot does not make use of Wii Motion Plus.

* Sometimes you have to “draw” a symbol on a door with your sword to open it.

* The Bow-Control is very similar to the Bow-Control in Wii Sports Resort.

* “There are two levels of difficulty. Aonuma put it through. Miyamoto didn’t want to include it.The Normal-Mode for amateurs. The Hero-Mode has no “Super Guide” included and the enemies tougher”.

* The On-Stage Dungeon, which is also playable at E3, isn’t a Dungeon as we know it from the Zelda series. When entering a Dungeon, you will not notice you are in one. It will be a smooth gradation. There will be Dungeons with no Bosses and Bosses with no Dungeon. The “Dungeon” you are able to play at E3 will be an Ice-Level. It will be the first “Dungeon” in the Game.

I guess the rumor is true - Goldeneye is going to have a remake for the Wii.

Apparently, Activision's press conference was mostly a concert and gave little information about their games. >.>

Nintendo started\o_o/
<hr noshade size="1">
I want one of those hot assistantsNinetndo3DS!

Nintendo was quite impressive,though i'm not too fond of the new Zelda game,as i preferred the previous art style...

Anyone noticed how only one person applauded when Wii Party was presented?

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Kid Icarus!!!! Donkey Kong!! Awesome, so many good titles coming up in the next few months/years. Even one Metal Gear titel! And lol at the hundreds of woman with 3DSs straped onto them.

Want to see some footage from Zelda being played by jounalists.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Kurby surprised me quite positively,looks really awesome.Nintendo did really well this time,they have an awesome line-up!

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Holy Crap, I'm still in shock. Was not expecting Nintendo to have the best conference this year but it looks like they did it! The 3DS looks amazing and then on top of that they announce Kid Icarus for it!!!! Then Donkey Kong Country Returns!!! Its finally back after me waiting ages and the best part is.....THERE ARE NO BONGOS!!!! Kirby, Zelda ZOMG. They didn't even say anything about Pokemon Black and White! I am once again back to my old Nintendo Fanboy self!

Damn, forgot about Kirby. <(^.^)> <(^.^<) (>^.^<) (>^.^)>
Wasn't sure at first, only sidelines?Oo But he is as sweet as ever. Hopefully it will be as fun as the N64 game. The collection for NDS was nice too though.^.^

Don't think why they should, as they mostly showed games, we haven't seen much/anything till today. Probably won't have any 3D features, as it's made for the multimillion normal DS base, but can't wait for Pokemon Rainbow, no grey please, in full 3D. XD

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Yes, Kirby Epic Thread was actually a smart move. It s a game thats cute and cuddly but at the same time plays like a more hardcore game. Its a good move because it will appeal to a wide variety of players yet at the same time please the older ones. It reminded me a lot of Paper Mario in the way it was presented and its appearance but it looks like it does more in the action category. Overall looking forward to that game as well! Boy, I haven't turned on my Wii in like 5 months, but it looks like I'll be dusting it off and plugging it back in!

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

Capcom has launched the official website for MvC3 and a twitter page so you can check for the latest updates.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

So the Sony conference was solid but I wasn't as excited as I was while watching the Nintendo one. To me, it seems that Nintendo one the conference battle this year. Sony came in second. I felt that Sony showed much more content than Microsoft but they spent a lot of time showing video clips and not much focusing in on the games themselves. That being said they still showed a lot of content and I am looking forward to games like Metal Gear Rising, GT5, Marvel VS Capcom 3, etc. But in the end, I am still much more excited for what Nintendo showed us.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

I agree; I think Nintendo won with Sony finishing second while Microsoft was in last place. I was amused by Kevin Butler and his jabs against Microsoft's press conference yesterday though. I wish Sony show more game play but I enjoy watching the trailers.

What are your thoughts about the PSN Plus? It's an interesting concept and I'm relieved that the rumor about paying to play multiplayers mode wasn't true. However, I don't know if I would subscribe to it...

 

[Arrogance]

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

I like the idea but I am not really up for paying for it. It seems more like a golden members club and you VIP access to content but its not absolutely necessary. I also find it funny how many of the Microsoft games they present as being exclusive when in the end they are on the PS3 as well. I got the impression yesterday that Tom Clancy Ghost Recon Future Soldier was just for XBOX and then today they announced it for PS3. I really liked the gameplay for that and might end up buying it. Also we have Medal of Honor and COD Black Ops coming out. I'm gonna download the beta for Medal of Honor when it comes out in a few days

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

I also thought MGS: Rising was an Xbox exclusive but Sony mentioned it so I guess it not either. A lot of PS3 users are going to be happy.
