General E3 2009 Discussion - System Wars Style [UPDATED 1.4]

I was wondering when we would see Eyepet, it looks cool and promising.

sooo...

It looks like FF14 is a timed console exclusive.

"In the new copy of OPM UK, Editor Tim Clark hints at a new Kojima Game. While the magazine doesn't mention MGS: Rising, it does have omages from other E3 events like the Assassin's Creed 2 Demo. Could this just be Rising, or Kojima's 3rd Project?"

Kojima is supposed to be speaking at the Konami thing later today (around 6:00pm Eastern I believe).

[QUOTE="trim9001"]I think that everyone will agree that Nintendo seems to have lost its commitment to the REAL gamers. They did announce some great Mario games, but other than that, the 3rd party titles were really plain. For the 360, I believe they had a good presentation. Fairly interesting, especially project natal which seems promising. One of the advantages Microsoft has over Nintendo and Sony is that it has revenue which it gets from its gamers and can use that to form such partnerships and add features as it is doing. Well done Microsoft. One final note, project natal was really awesome, however, i think that maybe removing all controller from things is not the best way to go. Full body capture is innovative and all, but when applied to like FPS games and other games of similar context, I don't think the no controller at all will work well. But you never know till it comes out. Sony, I think also had a really great conference. Being a PS3 owner, I am slightly biased towards the PS3, but you've got to give it that they pulled of a great performance. Their game trailers was like one epic game after another. (I am not a 360 owner, so I didn't really get all that excited about their exclusives, and since I hate Halo, their games line didn't seem that great although Alan Wake looks awesome). The eye-toy demo was also really cool. Seems that there will be yet another ware b/w 360 and PS3 on motion control. Personally i think that that war is even and nobody can really win b/c both, natal and the eye toy, in their places deliver exciting expieriences and opportunities for developers. So they are pretty much equal (i am still curious to see if NO controllers will work for Natal). Ultimately, in my opinion Sony and Microsoft had the best E3 with Nintendo really far behind. It is hard to say which one is the best as being a PS3 owner, I would obviously be inclined to say PS3 had the best conference as that is the conference which had the most association with me. I'll leave you to decide which one is the bestMultiplat_inum

I kinda feel sorry for Ubi. Sony and MS took their games. They probably couldn't show AC2 gameplay because Sony would be showing it. Since MS is first they did not care about Splinter Cell being shown again.

Sorry if this is old:

Kojima isn't involved in MGS: Rising development

Well..to the extent expected.

"I'm not the director. I'm not doing game design either. Although, I do issue complaints (laughs). But, not too much."

"...he's actually only fully involved with the PSP game, where he will be serving as director, producer and game designer. He describes Peace Walker as the "Metal Gear Solid 5 inside me."

Damn. Announced Peace Walker as second title, first was coin-op title. That leaves one title assuming MGSR is the 3rd.

Sweet Jesus. Kojima leaves the MGS IP in Konami and KJP's hands for just a little bit and they start milking it to head.

So since Square said- in terms of other hardware devices, including Microsoft's, we're considering all possibilities." Is ff14 still the PS3's megaton?rybe1025

[QUOTE="rybe1025"]So since Square said- in terms of other hardware devices, including Microsoft's, we're considering all possibilities." Is ff14 still the PS3's megaton?Multiplat_inum

It is confirmed at the Konami's conferance that MGSR is multiplatform, PS3 / X360.

well why is he, a person calling MGR a megaton asking such a question? makes ABSOLUTELY no senseMultiplat_inum

So has Konami's conference been the only thing worth noting since Sony? And are there any other important conferences happening today?Cherokee_Jack

The most noteworthy things between the two conferences ( for me anyway ) were developer walkthroughs and interviews I stumbled on at GameTrailers.com. Other than that though, it's been as quiet as a tomb

I think most of the publisher conferences have come and gone.

Activision had a non-conference conference Sunday

EA and Ubi were the same day as Microsoft

Nintendo and Sony has theirs yesterday

SE and Konami has their conference today.

So all that's left that I can think of is Sega and Capcom and the only game Sega can show off is Alpha Protocol if I'm not mistaken so I don't think they'll do a conference. So that unfortunately leaves Capcom...Go Capcom!

Sio how can anyone say Sony even one, when MS's effort was better and I can actually say I'm pumped over Super Mario Galaxy 2 and the new Mario Borthers shown?

Waaaaah! :cry: There was NO SLIM PS3! :cry: Why Sony? Why? :?
