Yes, same here. I never played any of the other games but Deus Ex looks really good so far but of course I want to see more gameplay as you said. Also I never played the first portal game but Portal 2 it does look like fun so I may get that. I honestly have a long list of games I want to get after this E3 so I'm gonna have to sit down and type one up . I'll post my results when I am done .

Screw Attack did post some videos of the game play, but unfortunately they must have taken it down.

Luckily, Kotaku wrote an article about it.

Re: The Games Hangout Thread - E3 Edition

The only things I've gone "woo!" for from this year's E3 was Portal 2, 3DS, and a new Rayman title.

(Btw, I wrote up an article on what was missing from E3: http://www.thegamingvault.com/2010/06/e3-2010-what-was-missing/) [/shamelessplug]

O_o Who are you? Welcome to The Games Hangout Thread!

Anyway, anyone ever played Blur? It's freakin' sweet, I love how it's like, RPG racing. We can get new cars, we can customize it a bit, etcetc.

Or maybe I'm just too much of a racer and see the game as a better way to emulate what I wanna do in real life. <_<

O_o Who are you? Welcome to The Games Hangout Thread!

Watch your tone, youngster, I've been repping in this thread since 06.

As for the 3DS, the reason they say by the end of March, is because that's the end of Nintendo's fiscal year, so they will want to release their new money printer before that earnings call. They'll definitely get it out in Japan by holiday, hopefully in the US and maybe even EU too, as I bet it would sell a lot as a christmas gift.

Yessir, gramps!

Nintendo 3DS sounds kinda stupid to me. It's annoying how they're starting to add 3D to the games. Hopefully it doesn't catch on, at least for nonhandheld gaming consoles. Would be annoying to have to buy 3D TV just for the games.

Well the thing is its not normal 3D either. Its 3D without glasses and on top of that the capabilities of the system are far beyond what we have seen on any other hand held system. Its to the point that they are remaking MGS3 which was on the PS2 and then Ocarina of time an N64 game for the thing. Games that used to be only extensive enough to be on home consoles are now going to be able to be put on this hand held system. Honestly the 3D is a great addition but I think the really key is that hand held games will now be able to be much more extensive than anything we have seen before. Plus we don't need glasses . I understand 3D may not be your preference but I also wanted to inform you that this system is going beyond the average 3D and the average hand held system technology .

The good thing so far, is that all 3D is optional. Sony showed a lot of PS3 3D games, but on games that will also have "normal" modes. The 3DS as well, will even have a slider that lets you adjust EXACTLY how much 3D you want, including none. So developers can't get too hung up on the gimmick, because the game still have to look good normally.

Well, now we know that the 3DS will definitely be out in the USA next year.

Is anyone going to Las Vegas on July 9th to July 11th? If so, you can play MvC3 at the EVO World Final, which is being held at Ceasar's Palace Resort and admission is free.

Miyamoto hinted that Nintendo might make a new game character, which may be revealed next year.

 

[Arrogance]

Wow, I just read that article Kim and I can't believe Apple actually tried getting Nintendo to put content out on the ipad . Like who would even expect Nintendo to say yes. Honestly if they ever did that then it would lead to the downfall of nintendo cause then no one would buy their systems. What fuels Nintendo is true unique content that is only for their systems and if that uniqueness to their systems is gone then Nintendo as we know it is gone. Honestly that was pretty dumb of Apple to think they could do that. Plus the 3DS is going to be better than the ipad .

That controller is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge.

Atari. <3 One of the best and greatest pioneers of video game industry.

Pretty interesting read.

^ I think the Angry Video Game Nerd has that controller but I could be mistaken. That thing is huge though; how can you store that thing?

That's a cool article about Atari. I didn't know that they made Neverwinter Nights and Unreal Tournament.

Capcom hinted that they will have a big announcement, which will be announced in two days.

 

[M3J]

I guess you can just clear out closet for that. X_x

Any guess what it's about?

 

[Arrogance]

So this big announcement is for MvC3? If so I wonder what would be so big? New character? Even so is that something that THAT big of news? O well. I'm still quite curious though! Make sure to post the answer Kim in two days!

 

[riki]

Some thinks it might deal with MvC3 since Comic-Con is almost here while others are hoping that it is a new Darkstalkers game. I'll post the info when it shows up. ^^

Here is an interview with the MvC3 producer. Apparently 1/3 of the characters will be old ones while the rest are new.

 

[Arrogance]

Awww less characters this time . 30 is still good though, but that means quite a few characters are gonna get cut. I'm still hoping they put Wesker in!!! and Phoenix Wright .

 

[riki]

The Last Story has a trailer.

Famitsu released a character relationship chart for Street Fighter IV. Unfortunately, it's in Japanese for now so if anyone wants to translate it, go ahead. ^^

Finally, Capcom's big announcement is...Super Street Fighter IV Alpha. Actually it is about the fact that they have launched the website for Dead Rising 2. The site, TapeItorDie.com (which makes sense with the hint given by Capcom Europe), will follow the exploits of the game characters and will have some exclusives. They also have the box art for the game.

It's kinda disappointing b/c I hope it was more info on MvC3 but I guess we have to wait for Comic-Con then.

With that out of the way, I'm off to play some Trinity Universe!

Sony is making a new hardware. Hopefully it is a PSP2 not a PS4 system.

Here is Capcom's schedule for Comic-Con:

From Comic-Con’s Thursday schedule:

4:45-5:45 Capcom 2010 and Beyond!— See the latest trailers and get the inside scoop on all of Capcom’s most highly anticipated games for 2010 and beyond: Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, Sengoku Basara, Okamiden, Bionic Commando Rearmed 2, Ghost Trick, Dead Rising 2, and more. On top of all that, hear details on an exciting new game announcement by Capcom legend Keiji Inafune, the father of Mega Man! Room 6BCF

 

[Arrogance]

Sony is making a new hardware. Hopefully it is a PSP2 not a PS4 system.

I'm foreseeing a 3PS or a 3PSP in your future . They are most likely making a new handheld device in the wake of the new 3DS and after the PSP GO not doing as well as they liked. The PSP itself though is selling from what I know thanks to Peacewalker and then Birth By Sleep, but at the same time Nintendo is still dominating them.

As for a PS4 I really hope not . Not for a few years. I just got my PS3 last christmas, I don't want to have an obsolete system already! .

Assassin's Creed might take a one-year hiatus after Brotherhood is released.

Another Capcom producer, Yoshinori Ono, hinted that he is working on a new game, which will be shown at Comic-Con.

---

The arcade version of Super Street Fighter IV might have new characters. It assumes that the new characters might be DLCs for the home versions if it's true.

Capcom also announced Mega Man Universe, but not a lot of information has been revealed.

Finally, there is a rumor that Namco and Capcom have teamed up and are creating two fighting games, Capcom vs Namco and Namco vs Capcom. The former would be in 2D and has the SSFIV engine with ultra and super combos while the latter would be in 3D and uses the Tekken 6 engine, which also has in-depth move sets. A trailer for the two games will supposedly be shown at Comic Con.

Capcom has announced 4 new characters for MvC3: FTW. They are Chun-Li, Trish (DMC), Super-Skrull, and Doctor Doom.

 

[Arrogance]

NICE DOCTOR DOOM!!!! His ground attacks looks a little stiff but then again he was never that much of a speed character. He also just stood there and made everyone suffer under his power . His aerial attacks look pretty good. I don't know Trish (never played DMC) but her attacks look really cool and interesting with the spell circle and all. Thanks for the info Riki!
