Is it me, or did Comic Con have more giga-bomb news than this year E3?

Tekken vs street Fighter

DAO 2

The character reveal in MvC3

and plenty other that I have may skipped over.

What do you guys think?

to me this E3 was all about the hardware and casuals.

so yes i agree with you, its nice to get some real interesting stuff

Why would expect anything elses? They're directed toward very different audiences. E3 is for the retail buyers. Comic-Con is for the fans and has a much broader reach.

Well, maybe it's just me. Even though E3 10 wasn't bad, but there really wasn't any news that "wowed" me. In Comic Con, at least 2 (maybe 3) out of the 6 revealed characters wowed me, as well as the Street Fighter vs Tekken announcement, in which really wowed me. That announcement alone probably had to be my personal "giga bomb" news.

As far as Halo Reach information goes, yes.

no. The game also looks rather lame spin-off to sell to fanboys of those games.

For capcom stuff yes. I really don't understand why they waited until Comic-Con to show SF X Tekken. Makes no sense. I understand waiting until Comic-con to show new characters.

People have become more media savvy in the past couple of years. There's such a greater opportunity to reach more people at this event that deals with movies, comics as well as videogames. That's where the average person can come and check out what's going on in panels and on the show floor.

It's really no wonder that it's making a much bigger splash.

It wasnt hard to one up the "we dont have any games you want to play but check out this new awesome motion controller that you can use to play all these games you didnt want in the first place blah blah" fiasco that was E3.

[QUOTE="ermacness"]what game are you talking about?

ermacness

Don't ever say those words again.

[QUOTE="ermacness"]

[QUOTE="TSNAKE617"]
Street Fighter x Tekken. And I agree.

Don't ever say those words again.

I know that IW milkage is UNFORGIVABLE (even though i have bought every map pack released:D), but c'mon, releasing the same game done in 2d by one company, and 3d by another company is beyond milkage.

For fighting game fans, sure. Overall, definitely not.

Slashkice

There were some great announcements, but video game wise, there wasn't much compared to E3.

I say keep games out of Comic Con and save them for the actual game shows....kejigoto

No, they can stay.

There where plenty of megaton announcements in just Nintendos conference this year

3DS lineup + a couple of Wii games.

ermacness

yeah but from that list it looks to appeal to a more narrow spectrum of games and franchises- namely fighting games and comics.

The others have already been covered in E3

Not even close...

Epic Yarn announced

Donkey Kong Country announced

Goldeneye announced

Twisted Metal announced

Kid Icarus announced

3DS demonstration

A fantastic lineup of games for 3DS announced

Zelda Skyward Sword announced

Kingdoms for 360 announced

Portal 2 announced

...and much more announcements, and then all the hands ons and new developments for all the upcoming games already revealed (Halo Reach, Gears 3, Black Ops, Epic Mickey)

Yeah...E3 definetely had more

Nope.
