They're always a waste of hype, remember the Pink PS2?

I don't know why people still go for them.

but people are making a big deal out of the girl game, but what about the agency, sure you might not like it but i think it looks great. the girl game distracted every one from it and they only post about that one.

The recent "super surprise" 360 announcement was never supposed to be a super big announcement. Someone took a quote out of context and of course all the blogs ran with it and before long it was being overhyped all over the internet

Though not really surprising. But still, SC2 is a heavyhitter. The Agency? Not so much...

It is a shining example of how these things should be done. I wish Bethesda would have taken notes for the Fallout 3 teaser. A game that has been awaited that long should not be teased more than a year from release.

Same thing happened here. Sony didn't hype this game, allgames.com did. People just ran with it and now blame Sony for the hype.

Did I miss something? I thought SC2 had a 08 release date as well?

It does, but they decided to show off a cool ass battle to let fans see what the game looked like, not some weak ass teaser. I thought that was incredibly lame of Bethesda. Fallout has been in limbo for years, it would have been nice to see more than a fan service teaser. Everytime I hear people say they got goosebumps when Ron Perlman says "War. war never changes" I roll my eyes..Yes, it's cool, but they could have given people a little bit more than that. ESPECIALLY with all of the countdown hoopla. To me, a longtime Fallout fan, it was a letdown.

Seriously that Pac-Man game is awesome. Almost wanna spend MS points on it. But yeah it was a huge let-down in terms of something BIG happening.

They announced 3 mmos which one is pretty awsome the other one is for girls (which is good becuase they will get some girls to buy PS3 making it appeal to a diffrent peeps), and there yet to annouce the the 3rd one....I dont see wii or 360 pulling off anything new anyways....Ps3 has been announcing games since day 1, 360 is doing awsome but wii is getting sucessful out of nothing but a cheap 200 console with 1 good game out....they have a weak line up with only 3 good games (metroid, SSBB, mario galaxy) the rest that i have seen were pretty lame....IMO Sony has been working there @$$ off more than anybody, 360 is fine on how they are doing but wii is just slacking...

Bah. They should never make these kinds of announcements unless it's something that the audience will be able to take with extreme joy. At least show a new trailer or demo for a game people are dying for.

Fair enough, but it was being hyped as a "teaser", not a preview, or a trailer. I think it did what it said it would do.

Mediocre announcement.

No, just kidding but it was very expected.
