[QUOTE="nintendo-4life"]BTW what does sony has to offer? :| other than HS, lair, and uncharted ( all of them barely made the AAA mark, hell barely made the AA mark) what else? oh and PLEASE don't tell me "teh surprises" because all of the companies have surprises.

PS. jeffe already confirmed he's not working on a PS3 god of war yet.FrozenLiquid

You sound angry.

But here...

Killzone, MGS4 and FFXIIIwill ultimately deliver. Rachet and Clank, HS, Lair, Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, Home, the New Playstation Eye, GT5 (Big title), SingStar, White Knight Story, Haze, Tekken 6 (big ass title), The Eye of Judgement, The Agency, The Last Remnant,Afrika, Heavy Rain, Coded Arm, The Getaway, LA Noire, Resident Evil5, DMC4,Eyedentify,etc... and some newer titles will all have an epic showing.

They're also probably showus some newer XBM features and PS3 functionality.

Are those all confirmed? I wanna see Afrika.

More of them are... some haven't been shown in awhile, I expect a showingof them.

Afrika should be there. I expect the animals to have realistic asses.

Same.

But yeah, I kinda was hoping this would vaguely fill in the gap B.C was going to do on the Xbox.

Nintendo will win, as always, it's been winning ever since the gaming industry began, People don't notice it well enough because they only focus on the big consoles, 360 and PS3. Wii has made more sales than a year of 360 did.

They will win this year's E3 guaranteed. Do you REALLY think Kutaragi was "planning" to retire for awhile? I don't. They "outed" him and he is gone. Sony recognizes that Kutaragi made a major misstep. Sony is familiar with "failed" products. They are pros at making a comeback. Betamax, UMDs, you name it. Sony ALWAYS finds a way to turn it around. Now, whether they actually turn it around with the PS3 is another question entirely.

They might. However, even if they don't, you can count on this one thing....Sony will obliterate the competition this year at E3. And this is coming from an anti-Sony guy.Same thing happened to Nintendo. They were laughed and scoffed at and basically looked at as no competition. Then E306 came, and everyone wanted to try out the Wii. Now, Nintendo is the one laughing. However, Nintendo is returning to its former self of "arrogance". This is not good. Thishas only hurt Nintendo in the past and will do the same soon.

Microsoft is "arrogant" about Halo 3 being the be all and end all of games, and won't prepare as hard as Sony will. Microsoft is getting more and more flack about the 3 red lights of death and other malfunctions of the 360. Peter Moore was one of the leads of the "Dreamcast team". I'm very iffy about Microsoft's E3 at this point...

Sony will win for sure this year. Everything is a pendulum in the videogame industry. And this is especially true of companies that have been around for awhile. Sony has been around for awhile. They have been failing lately and failing hard with the PS3. They know that SOMETHING has to be done.

And, even if PS3 is not saved, they will have the best E3 this year by far. It may be only hype or BS CGI "fake" video sequences, but it will still be "better" than Nintendo and Microsoft. Remember, Sony HAS TO DO SOMETHING AND THEIR NECKS ARE ON THE LINE. Also, when a company has a really bad E3 one year, then they usually have a great E3 the next year. It is just the way it always works....

well i DON'T KNOW who will win and i lack the wisdom to take a guess.

but what i do know is Sony is under the most pressure to deliver seeings the state its console is in now.

so lets see if it can deliver. i hope it can i love ps3.

Well, this is practically their last chance to get back in the game so why wouldn't they bring out everything they've got at once?

I'm amazed at how the main argument for sony winning E3 07 is always that they did so bad last year. Am I the only one finding this is a somewhat shoddy argument?

To be fair, it's essentially the same argument used for Halo 3.

I feel really sorry for M$, as they have their press conference at 4.30 in the morning, Ninty has the best spot at 5 and Sony a very decent time of 7.30, but Sony will have the best games and exclusives.

Sony only really has killzone 2 to show and I hope they don't rely on a single game to 'win' E3. Most of their other games were announced or shown at Sony Gamers Day. What I do hope is that Sony show of some new and exclusive IPs/games as they need to work on their software. Ultimately, E3 2007 is going to be a good show and will be tricky to call a winner.

Killzone, MGS4 and FFXIIIwill ultimately deliver. Rachet and Clank, HS, , Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, Home, the New Playstation Eye, GT5 (Big title), SingStar, White Knight Story, Haze, Tekken 6 (big ass title), The Eye of Judgement, The Agency, The Last Remnant,Afrika, Heavy Rain, Coded Arm, The Getaway, LA Noire, Resident Evil5, DMC4,Eyedentify,etc...

dude your argument is weak. Heres's a ps3 list of games we already know are in the pipeline . i can't prove ALL those games will be good, but quote this if you want Mgs4 FFXIII FFXIII versus (people need to remember those are two 100 hour rpgs), white knight story will be AAA's probably killzone 2 aswell, i didnt count the multiplats.

Here's my predictions: MGS4 wont have competition on the 360 in terms of the genre, FFXIIIwillownLO and probably mass effect aswellFFXIIIVersus will own Too human. From there it gets pretty even. Bioshock has no competition on the ps3 neither does halo 3 for now.

Looks like ALOT of those arnt gunna make it to the holiday season, so your point is moot. And some of those games are coming to 360 (RE5, DMC4,Haze). GT5 has yet to be seen, cept that crappy demo on the PS3. Most of you cows need this because of the HORRIBLE E3 last year for you guys. Sorry to say tho, Mario, Halo 3, crysis, and Spore will be bigger then anything else on PS3.

Sorry to say tho, Mario, Halo 3, crysis, and Spore will be bigger then anything else on PS3.

:) where in my post did i say anything about the holiday season. I was generally voicing my opinion on this gen. If any gamer seriously believes the ps3 has a weak line-up they're a fanboy. Same for the 360 but in my opinion overall its not as interesting. You gotta think about this if the 360 is so very strong why has sales slowed down considerably in europe, what could they be waiting for? in england the 360 is at the same price the ps2 was at before it sold like crazy £199.

Killzone 2 Mgs4 FFXIII FFXIII Versus, WHite Knight story,Heavenly swordUncharted Drake's fortune, Jak and daxter sequel, Ratchet and Clank are all ps3 exclusives friend. i really like halo, but i think lemmings have put it up on a ridiculous pedestal halo 1 was one of the favourite games but halo 2 hardly did anything. It felt less epic. Half-life 2 is the king of fps's

ifkillzone2 exceeds its target render and sony do a huge market campaign (which they probably will)coupled with a price drop, sales will kick off.

Bottomline: This fall there will be 2 BIG games: Halo 3 and GTA4... You can play both on the 360 or you can play one on the ps3

The strongestpart of a fps should be its campaign. Have you played half-life 2's single player, everything about it is amazing. and guess what it has online and it's free!.

Yea, they really turned Betamax and the PSP around.

Besides, what are they going to show, Metal Gear Solid 4 for the 100th time? Final Fantasy XIII (paying attention to the XIII)? White Knight Story looks amazing but Sony doesn't seem to be hyping it too much.

I don't care who wins between Sony or Microsoft as long as its not the wii. I played that at my cousins house and I hope they don't encourage more people to get that boring piece of crap. Zelda was the game that turned me off the wii.

Most of the big ps3 games I am looking forward to are already announced. I guess some gameplay of GT5, FFXIII, the new Socom, will be nice but some major new IPs would be nicer.

I almost guarantee though that one of MS new announcements is the dual HD movie format add-on, or a straight up Blu-Ray add-on.

Thanks for the enlightenment m8, but there are several things that I would like to comment on.

First, your opinion that the strongest part of an FPS should be its campaign has a critical implication. Are multiplayer only games like Battlefield and CounterStrike considered inferior because they do not have campaigns? I think not and I know of a huge faction of gamespot forumites (i.e. HERMITS) that would disagree with this logic.

Second, it is hard to disagree with the influence that Halo 2 had on Xbox Live. Given the vast number of matches played alone, it is extemely speculative to say that Live would still be as dominant today without Halo 2.

Your comments about PC games being free to play online is completely irrelevant to my post. I referred to online console platforms only. I made no mention of PCs.

halo 1 was one of the favourite games but halo 2 hardly did anything.

Nevermind the fact that this was the game that established Live as the dominant online console platform.

no no no microsoft in creating live to be superior to other consoleonline serivecesestablised live as the current dominant online console platform. i hate the idea of fps' being givenpraise justbecause of online options. The strongestpart of a fps should be its campaign. Have you played half-life 2's single player, everything about it is amazing. and guess what it has online and it's free!. Fps's have been free online for years on the pc m8

ever hurd of CS or UT?

Thanks for the enlightenment m8, but there are several things that I would like to comment on.

First, your opinion that the strongest part of an FPS should be its campaign has a critical implication. Are multiplayer only games like Battlefield and CounterStrike considered inferior because they do not have campaigns? I think not and I know of a huge faction of gamespot forumites (i.e. HERMITS) that would disagree with this logic.

godi knew you'd probably inanely respond with something like this and my point which i'll reiterate is that the strongest part of an fps should be the campaign. I didnt say i hate online multiplayer hell for a while that's all i used to play in half life 2 was the mutiplayer because of the crazy levels etc... the problem i have with mulitplayer only games is the fact that they're not really saying anything.

it;s just constant carnage. Most of the people like myself who saw the halo 3 teaser were wowed by the epic scale of it all because we know the campaign will probably rock. the best kind of fps are games that have a solid campaign and multiplayer. Cutscenes give your actions weight and gravitas; they make the experiencefeel a lot more epic. On certain levels when the thememusic of halo kicks injust as a battle comes up it awesome. You can't get that in multiplayer becauseevery match is different,you cant placecues for music to start becauseeach person's experience is different; they start at different points in the map. i mentioned the free cost of pc online games to comment on which i think has more value for the consumer.

when i said i hate it when games get praise just because of their multiplayer you should have known i was referring to games that have both Campaign and multiplayer. You'll seldom see a fpsthat has single player only these days.

"Are multiplayer only games like Battlefield and CounterStrike considered inferior because they do not have campaigns? I think not and I know of a huge faction of gamespot forumites (i.e. HERMITS) that would disagree with this logic."

i'm not sure aboutbatttlefield butwith counterstrike i'm not saying the game islame but comparing it to the half-life 2or halowhich havecampaigns and mutiplayer is kinda silly.

i shouldnt have said inanesorry

I think when you have an E3 as bad as their last, they'll want to pull out all the stops to do the opposite this year.

Sony have the most games to showcase this E3,thus they have the highest chance of leaving with the best reviews and awards. If God Of War 3 is there,then Sony have it in the bag.Dualshockin

I have a hard time taking you seriously on the account of your name, avatar, and sig. :|

[QUOTE="nintendo-4life"]BTW what does sony has to offer? :| other than HS, lair, and uncharted ( all of them barely made the AAA mark, hell barely made the AA mark) what else? oh and PLEASE don't tell me "teh surprises" because all of the companies have surprises.

PS. jeffe already confirmed he's not working on a PS3 god of war yet.XenogearsMaster

You sound angry.

But here...

Killzone, MGS4 and FFXIIIwill ultimately deliver. Rachet and Clank, HS, Lair, Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, Home, the New Playstation Eye, GT5 (Big title), SingStar, White Knight Story, Haze, Tekken 6 (big ass title), The Eye of Judgement, The Agency, The Last Remnant,Afrika, Heavy Rain, Coded Arm, The Getaway, LA Noire, Resident Evil5, DMC4,Eyedentify,etc... and some newer titles will all have an epic showing.

They're also probably showus some newer XBM features and PS3 functionality.

i was a bit angry when i worte that post, for some reason my posts really do reflect my emotions  :o :p
anyway, i still stand by what i say, there isn't alot that sony has to deliver, yes they have enough to COMPETE, but no, they don't have enough to make the sure win cows want.
honestly, eye judgement? afrika? the last remnant? to me these games are just not appealing to me.

i do hope sony has a good showing i really do, but these fanboy claims need to stop.
