I expect a fully running game at this E3 running on the 360, that is going to blow people away. If it's vaporware and I'm wrong so be it, but I think this 1 of MS's surprises.

They might show the 360 version, but its more likely they would show the PC version since it would look better.

Doubtful. I expect this game to perform poorly on PC (sales wise), so I expect them to put the 360 version up front and center.

the 360 version will look similar to the PC due to the 360s PC-like architecture if they made it for ps3, not so much

To be honest, i'd kill for just a little bit of info. Either they are great at keeping details on this game quiet, or it truly is becoming vapor-ware.

My comment had nothing to do with sales...From a technical stand point its pretty obvious that the PC version will look better, so wanting to impress MS will most likely show the PC version and say something like "The 360 version will look just as good", or something similar to that.

I still doubt that. They show the 360 versions at the 360 press conference.

Except its not a 360 press conference, its a Microsoft press conference, meaning they could include Zune or PC software if they wanted.

thats not gonna change the fact the 360 version could look better than anything on consoles


you fail to understand that even if the 360 version looks near good as the pC version it will look better than KZ2

This is true.AFAIK all the tech-demos so far have displayed the PC version so the dev can show-off their new engine in all its glory ,and also highlight the supposed benefits of running it on one of Intel's quad-cores.

From what i've heard it sounds interesting. Having a complete embargo on information though, can get kinda annoying :(

MS, we need something to whet our appetites :evil:

this game will be great with out doubt, it will look awesome on both platforms.

but lemmings saying that it will look near identical to the pc version is laughable

no way can a 4 year old console keep up with a 1 year old gaming rig running this on high unless MS is purposely holding back the pc version so the 360 can look identical.

im not denying that the 360 version can possibly be the best looking console game, since i think it will be up there but still below crysis on high settings. to put it short if they do show the pc and 360 version at E3 and they look identical it is quite possible that the pc version is either on medium settings or remedy spent more time on the 360 version to keep it up to scratch.

i have high hopes for this game especially for MS to go as far as publishing it, it must be a top notch game

dude you are retarted do you know why it took killzone 4+ years to finish because they had to make the engine for it. if you take in accound how long it took epic to make the unreal engine and add the time for development of geow then it would easly take just as long if not longer. moral of the story "think before you speak, your not a polictian"

it's definitely not vaporware, but i can't see it being at e3, it looks to be a 2010 game. i wouldn't be surprised if it's at e3 though, this game needs revealing, we've had like one tech demo video and like 4 pictures since it's been announced.

Gears 2 is and its an excellent game i would go so far to say one of the best this generation, console wise that is. Halo Wars is good as well i thought it certainly desereved higher than the score it got here. Too Human can go jump off a damn cliff for all i care mind. As for Alan Wake yeah TC i can see it being a complete and brilliant game it seems to be quite unique in premise and if the graphics are anything to go by it could well be a very well polished game. If it flops i will be surprised. Hopefully it wont do a Duke Nukem Forever on us as well.

Gears 2 and Halo Wars flops? Last I checked, both have sold better than most PS3 exclusives in just the few months they've been out.

Unless you have complete faith in the development company I am honestly not really sure why people are giving this game so much hype except for the fact that it is the only exclusive that has enough unknown about it for people to imagine more. I mean honestly we know very little about this game and Remedy's PC ports to consoles have left alot to be desired. We know nothing about the story, have seen pretty much no gameplay, I mean unless your a Remedy fan I still don't understand the blind faith. I mean I at least waited to see gameplay of Heavy Rain before getting excited.
