Silly: EA buys rights to 'man made/organic weapons that fire projectiles of either physical, mental, or light based origins'; subsequent drunk "HAHA" calls to Infinity Ward go unconfirmed.

A sequel to Pyschonauts would be cool, but Double Fine(the people that made Pyschonauts) are releasing a new game called Brutal Legend this fall. So it's unlikely that they had the time to do that game and a sequel to Pyschonauts.
But Brutal Legend looks good. It has the seems to have the same kind of weird alternate world storyline and it has voice acting by Jack Black! Yes, that Jack Black.

I watched the press conferences, and that was all I recieved. One mishmash of announcements, one glitzy (but empty) glass, and the alcoholic that drank the contents. All that Sony announced that I cared about is the stuff that's gonna be played up at THIS E3.
This year's announcements look to be a lot better though on all sides. Well, except Nintendo's.
Yes, the truest thing anyone will ever say!SilentHunter7 said:
Also really want to see new footage from the 40k space marine game, looks awesome.
No, I am not joking at all.scotth266 said:Jumplion said:

Microsoft's conference was basically gloating multiplatform games and their LIVE service. They announced a new South Park game and the Portal: Still Alive thing that was just a level pack from the PC. They gave us 2 minutes of Fable 2 stuff and 5 minutes of Gears of War 2. They also showed off some NXE stuff. The only reason why they were considered the "best" conference was because everyone was stunned at the "FFXIII on 360!" announcment that everyone completely ignored the other conferences from the shock, and rightly so I guess.
Nintendo.....well, we don't need to go into that should we?
But let's look at Sony. Sony showed off God of War 3, even if it was expected. They announced Fat Princess, Quest for Booty I believe was also announced, and the new IP that is MAG (Massive Action Game) which boasts 256 players. They showed off some gameplay from Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, and something else that escapes me at the moment. And Sony announced a video service similar to NXE and that was launched the night of the conference months before NXE yet no one gave a damn.
So, there, this is why I think Sony had the best conference. They showed games. EXCLUSIVE ones at that. But because Microsoft had the whole "FFXIII on 360!" announcment that stunned everyone for the past week, everyone automatically labeld MS's conference as "the best" out of what was apparantly a crappy E3 (though I thought it was good).
Erm... what? I didn't really give a shit about that announcement till later, and still thought that Microsoft had the best conference only due to the fact that they focused on games most of the time... the NXE stuff was just filler to me as I waited for some real announcements.Jumplion said:
No, no we don't. I think that every Nintendo fan out there screamed a scream of pure agony that day...
Even though I like Sony, the conference to me was a bucket filled with MEH. Why? The God of War 3 trailer was more of a general announcement that they were making the game than anything significant (big suprise, you're doing a sequel). MAG was interesting, but I'm waiting till the release to see just how the MMFPS thing is handled, as it could have severe issues... Resistance 2 and LBP were the only things that were going to release that year that I was excited about, and LBP was the only game to maintain that interest.
Also, why would you mention that DVD rental crap? I don't care about all that shit, I buy my consoles to play games, first and foremost. I will always be unimpressed with anything they announce that isn't game-related.
Oh, and Quest For Booty turned out to be good. So I guess that's two things I cared about at the Sony conference. Other than that though... it just felt lame.
The whole thing was just blah compared to previous E3's, that's why it got so much negative press.
Bruce Dickinson should never be questioned, after all.Indigo_Dingo said:
Totally unlikely, but a Clutch game would rule sooo damn hard! They should at least try and get a song-pack from those guys!ThaBenMan said:You may think this belongs in the "Silly" category, but it is simply too full of awesome and win to not happen: I fully expect the announcement of Guitar Hero/Rock Band: Clutch Edition(both, with half of their catalog on each - you can't just pick and choose the best songs, they're all the best!)
I meant as a general consensus, when Microsoft announced the whole FFXIII on 360 stuff everyone was pretty much in shock that an obvious System Seller for the PS3 lost exclusivity.scotth266 said:
And they barely talked about their exclusive games in the first place. They went on about how LIVE has a bunch of players online and how they've got a larger install base and stuff and yadda yadda yadda. They barely talked about the games that actually mattered, which where the exclusives whereas Sony talked pretty much all about their exclusives.
Uh, it's not a DVD rental thing, it's pretty much exactly like the NXE. You download movies to either buy or rent for a short amount of time to watch on your PS3. The difference is they released it on the night of the conference whereas Microsoft was hyping up the whole NXE crap anyway.
serious? I wanna hear more about Assassins Creed 2, Modern Warfare 2, and God of War III. I also want Valve to do something about Portal and Half Life.
silly? I want Macbeth to be turned into a video game. With all the olde English in tact. That way I can buy it and use it as an excuse to play videogames as "revision" for my A levels.

Real predictions:
-Kingdom Hearts III Information as well as info on the two handheld releases
-Prototype Demo
-New trialers for God of War III, Bioshock 2, and Assassin's Creed 2
-Ridiculous new gimmicky game that is Nintendo's Ace at E3
-Another new Sonic game. Fans become dangerously optimistic as is tradition
-New Metal Gear?
Silly ones:
-Miyamoto takes stage and proudly declares WiiMusic 2. Hundreds of fans promptly kill themselves by swallowing their DS.
-Square makes vague mention that a Final Fantasy VII remake won't happen...unless it does...which it won't...maybe...
-3D Realms has bamboolzed us all! Duke Nuken Forever is actually being released as we speak!
-Remember the Dreamcast? It's making a comeback!
