[Roger S. Huxley]

MS is late >:(

[Roger S. Huxley]

Metal Gear Rising is looking pretty cool, although a bit clumsy. and lol'd at the watermelon cutting.

[Yggdrasil]

Metal Gear Solid: Rising = I rike it :)

[Roger S. Huxley]

This is one of the lamest conference I've ever watched at an E3. Rising was cool, the little bits of GoW3 were nice, but besides that? Hell, even the Halo Reach demo didn't show off a lot.

Now they're just throwing all that Wii copypasted shovelware for Kinect. For fuck's sake, Microsoft.

[Jet16]

This is awful.

[Hoshino_Kid]

That's it for Microsoft's conference.

[Yggdrasil]

Agree, Microsoft have never impress me with their conferences. But Gears of War 3 looks cool and the redesign of the 360 is interesting, to say the least.

I only watch this because I'm a huge Metal Gear fan! <3 Thank god that Rising is multiplatform.

...And well, that's that.

[Roger S. Huxley]

EA in two hours, and the Ubisoft. Well, let's say the bar isn't set very high.

[Hoshino_Kid]

Xbox 360 Arcade $149
Xbox 360 Elite $249
Xbox 360 Slim $299

[Aeolus]

My impressions of MS's confrence.

CoD Black Ops: More tunnel and on-rails action.

MSG Rising: Tactical Watermelon Slicing Action.

GoW 3: Now with Boobs.

Fable 3: Now without dogs.

Codename Kingdoms: Crytek is making Spartacus game?

Halo Reach: Spartans in Spaaaaaaace!

Sports Stuffs: but I don't have gold account ;_;.

Kinect: Xbox. Plagiarize Nintendo. But with fewer options.

Dance Central: Best in show.

Forza 3: Look at stuff like brakes and fuel injectors that you'll never get to use.

Microsoft: Look under your chairs. You get a remodeled 360! You get a remodeled 360! Everybody gets a remodeled 360! /Oprah


Next up EA (more games for your vapid fashonistas).

[Tooker]

Fable 3: Now without dogs.

Really?  I thought everybody got a dog, and a different kind of dog was a pre-order perk.  Now no dogs?  Or is the dog just optional?

[CDFN]

Rising looks fun.

[Roger S. Huxley]

EA's conference is live. They showed a new NFS Hot Pursuit game that looks pretty awesome, and some Dead Space 2 gameplay that looks a bit too much like the first game for my taste.

And now, Medal of Honor.

[Aeolus]

You'd think that after so many years, I would've learned by now to not just use one site for E3 coverage.

Anyways impressions.

NFS Hot Pursuit: Need for more gloss.

Dead Space 2: More of the same.

Medal of Honor: It's back but now in Afghanistan and now sponsored by the NRA. 18 multiplayer gameplay though

Battlefield Bad Company 2: Get's an expansion set in Vietnam.

EA Sports Games: Moore of the same. Including a better fitness game than anything Microsoft cooked up and Joe Montana.

My Sims 3: Metaphysical bullshit and more gamer douchebagery.

Crysis 2: Will probably look just as advertised (in 2 years when computer technology finally advances to the point where it can run it at 60 fps).

Bulletstorm 2: Just another shooter in the wall.

SW Old Republic: Probably wont look as advertised as there's just no way they can set up fight scenes like that and still be an MMO.


Next up Ubisoft (and even more shooters).
