Nintendo is focusing more on casuals this gen anyway... they'll probaby save their biggest announcements for Chuck-E-Cheese. LOL J/K... they could just show a picture of the Wii and beat what MS just did.

I actually thought it looked pretty cool, for once. Couldn't tell what the graphics were like though, GS feed was way too blurry.

Bungie.net has a high rez version for download. Looks awesome IMO.

And that megaton would be... what? I saw the whole conference and saw nothing that even borders on a megaton.

You have to admit though it is kinda cool how they're including all 4 controllers in each copy of SceneIt for the same price as a regular 360 game. Hopefully they bring back You Don't Know Jack.

I don't think Scene It is worth the price of a full 360 game to be honest.

It was dissapointing at best.

When they eventually came to a part that caught my attention (Gears), they didn't reveal enough about it. It rises more questions then answers. For instance:

- Will the new content in Gears be downloadable through the XBL Marketplace?

- What is the new game mode?

- What are the new maps?

slothboyadvance

I think the new mode is the Level editor,the new map I guess they were talking about the new chapter 6 but yeah that first one is still an incognito.

Overall i was dissappointed in the MS conference. all they showed was more stuff of what we already knew! the only highlights for me where honestly COD4 and Assasin's creed...but it was just more of what we already knew...plus they also happen to be multiplat. Although I did like the new Halo 3 stuff that was shown... i wasn't wowed at all. I believe sony and nintendo will have a much better conference. I think sony is gonna come out on top after their showing and will get praise..

Other than Halo 3, CoD4, and the AC demo, nothing to really see. Nothing surprising happened. They just showed up pretty much.

[QUOTE="Hoffgod"][QUOTE="PBSnipes"]I don't think Nintendo will be much better, they seem to focus on TGS over E3 anyway.PBSnipes
What? No. Nintendo has never been a large part of TGS. Ever. Only time I can think of Nintendo ever doing anything with TGS was the Iwata keynote in 2005. And that was all Nintendo did at TGS 2005. No demos, no booth, nothing. E3 is huge for Nintendo. I expect them to come out full force tomorrow.

Maybe my memory's a little rusty, but for whatever reason I remember hearing alot more about the Wii at TGS than E3, although that may have just been because TGS came much closer to launch.

Understandable. Last year Nintendo did a Wii event in September right around TGS when they announced the price, launch date, launch games, etc. However, that was all separate from TGS; something Nintendo did separately for themselves.

I was under the impression there was going to be a new multiplayer game mode.

EDIT: I mean in game, not an editor.

Definitely not, at least not without the controllers.But we're talking about the same MS that charges $130 for a wireless adaptor. I thought for sure those controllers were going to cost $50 each. Anyway the game looks like a solid bargin bin pickup.

Was I the only one dissapointed with the Assassin's Creed demo? The graphics looked pretty nice, but some of the combat and other animations looked a little off. The floating body glitch was pretty hilarious as well.

All Sony really needs to do is show Killzone 2 gameplay footage remotely close to the target render in 05 to beat that presentation.

I hope,I will own both the Pc and the x360 versions :).

I was checking the Pc trailer again and that looked like a new map but it could be an already existent map from another point of view I'm not quite sure.

IMO the most Important question here is,Are those maps(If they exist)and the new chapter Six going to be avalible in xlive?.

Yes Wii Play is popular. But the difference between Wii Play and Scene-It is that Wii Play comes with a standard controller that you can use for every other Wii game. Scene It comes with4 littlecontrollers that will be used for less than 5% of the 360's games.

At first I thought Scene-It was going to be an XBLA game...

I think the problem with this conference and it will probably be evident in the other 2 also is a lot of developers were not invited or decided to opt out of E3 this year and will be doing their own shows. Things like TGS and X07 will probably bea better indicator of a platforms future strength in the future.heretrix
The 2 month delay might have made it too close to other shows. I mean X07 should be in about 2 months and so should TGS. Hopefuly Nintendo and Sony take it serious tomorrow or E3 will truelly be dead. What's going to happen with that other show GamePro or what ever? Is it still going to happen and when if so? Wonder how are seriously are they going to treat that one.

Crysis owned but I don't think it would be possible also If thats the only thing they show it would be sub-par.A new PSP redesign plus new exclusive games would be now quite a good show but Sony 06 conference was really meh at best.

You don't even need a new controller for a freaking quiz game. Why would you pay full price for a quiz game and 4 controllers that do less than your standard 360 controller?

I think the conference was ok. I mean they still didnt show alot of stuff. Blue Dragon got no mention at the show. neither did Too Human. It seems they were strict with what was only being released this year.
From an System Wars standpoint. It seems exclusives are not a big advantage for Microsoft.
From a Console Wars standpoint. Microsoft has a great lineup of exclusives not coming to PS3 or Wii. Like SC V conviction, Lost Odyssey, Halo 3, Project Gothem Racing 4Mass Effect, Bioshock, Blue Dragon, Viva Pinata party animals, etc. With all the 3rd party as well. Unless some 3rd party shows something late into E3 that is exclusive, or Microsoft reveals another big game after E3 or at E for All.I dont see much. Sony and Nintendo definantly brought more 1st/2nd party guns to the show at this point. Sony has Lair, HS, Rachet, Uncharted, and Killzone 2 to show. (although i think Killzone will suck). Nintendo has SMG, SSBB, MP3, BWii, Fire EMblem, Disaster, Project Hammer,etc to show. plus knowing sony and nintendo they will show alot of 08 stuff as well.

MS is being tight lipped on 08, and trying to play it safe with 07. By letting a price drop, Halo 3, GTA 4, the sports games, other multiplats, and there few exclusives like Mass Effect, Eternal Sonota, Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Project GOthem Racing 4, Viva Pinata party animals, Ace Combat 6, Splinter Cell V, and a console exclusive like Bioshock be what carry them to some safe sales this year.

I mean that will move alot of consoles. so long as most of the big games this gen are multiplats and the few exclusive or console exclusive games Microsoft shows off come out big.

Really I give the MS conference 7/10 for not being more aggressive. I think they are playing it safe right now.

That was such a boring conference. MS did not show anything relevant or exciting. They should have gone with their best titles and shown gameplay footage of those and announcing games for next year.

I feel like Sony will step up because they have no choice. Nintendo's got the momentum behind them, they're still riding the wave. Sony on the other hand...its "do or die" time.

I think Nintendo will have a couple surprises and should have no problem beating Microsoft's presentation. Sony on the other hand needs this to happen for them, so they will probably show off some Killzone 2 gameplay footage and maybe a couple other unannounced goodies.

I hope everyone is able to beat the MS presentation, Ubi and Activision had a better showing than MS did.

Well part of it is that the game is going to be running in god mode, and it was damn buggy to begin with. Hopefully Ubi will delay it if Ubi Montreal can't get it together.

MS definetly proved its point at the conference.... The 360 is going to have a great fall..... I thought the disney announcement was big aswell, seeing as they are in bed with apple and itunes...COD4 looked stellar as did AC... COD4 beta was a surprise. I just wish ms had shown more first party stuff. A live demo of lost Odyssey would have been appropriate

I almost wet myself when they had thatone MGS4 trailer that was like 15 minutes long. Yeah, another one of those would definately suffice.

Resident Evil 5 looked so amazing. I just watched the trailer again. I REALLY want that game.

[QUOTE="Tylendal"]They almost had me going for a minute with their "New controller" line. Then when I actually saw it, I thought to myself 'Do they have the gall to rip off the Wii-mote this blaitently' Then when they actually explained what it was, it was sort of a 'Oh, that's pointless'.PBSnipes
You have to admit though it is kinda cool how they're including all 4 controllers in each copy of SceneIt for the same price as a regular 360 game. Hopefully they bring back You Don't Know Jack.

It is pretty cool, but I still think it's sort of redundant.

What I can only hope is that Microsoft decided that E3 got scheduled too close to X07, and wanted to save some (or should I say most) of it's big announcements for then. Otherwise 2008 is going to be a very boring year for 360 owners.

Yeah, especially since they do less than a standard controller. I don't see why they didn't make the game an XBL game for 10 bucks and use the standard controller.

You expected them to have new exclusives and have them release within 5 months? that makes perfect sense... Instead of fake trailers and cgi, they had hands on demo's and gameplay for the majority of it and focused on this fall.

So buy 3 extra controllers that cost what, $40 a pop and $10 for the game. $130.. or $60 and 4 controllers included. Not everyone has 4 controllers. I myself do but I know many people with only one

I think people missed the point of MS's conference. its aimed for this year. this fall. I think at the next few events we will see more from microsoft. MS like Peter Moore said has showed its hand to the other 2. The other 2 know what they are up against. and will act accordingly. Both will act specifically hard at trying to avoid Halo3 while trying to combat it indirectly.

There is something to be said about going first. It gives the others time to reflect on what NOT to do. I did like the idea of disney movies on live. That and the video marketplace going outside of the US and into Europe. Overall the fact remains that this is a "trade show" and nothing more than a big PR event. It s to bad they dont open these up to who will actually be buying them....US!

Those controllers are not worth 40 dollars, and how many controllers do you need for a quiz game? Just pass around a single controller, it would work the same for 50 dollars less.

Looks like the 360 is the system to have this year and the PC will have Crysis

For a game you have to hit the buzzer on which he even said while showing the controller... makes perfect sense, /rolls eyes. So $10 a controller, wireless at that, isn't worth it?
