i got a 3DS last weekend

the 3D is WESOME

I've been playing some Uncharted 2, great game. :Dmacrules_640

Lately I've been obsessed with the Metal Gear Solid series, I had only played MGS4 when I got it in a bundle with my PS3 in 2008, I finally got around to playing the others. Right now I'm working on MGS Portable Ops.

With my purchase of a PS3 I pretty much made it clear what console I'm sticking to right now.macrules_640

Yeah I am too since the online is just as good as XBL.macrules_640

I'd still play my 360 if it worked...macrules_640

Rumored

Bungie's next game. (Which is rumored to be a MMO)

Bully 2. (Has been hinted for a while, will it show up at E3?)

Crytek UK project (Timesplitters 4? Battlefront 3? What is it?) Either way its likely one or both of my suggestions will show up at E3.)

Grand Theft Auto 5 (Its brewing, but will it show up?)

Halo: ReEvolved (X360 remake of Halo 1)

Hideo Kojima Title? (Rumored to be ZoE 3? Maybe.)

Respawn studio's FPS project? (Likely aiming to kick CoD's ass.)

Half-Life 3? (Well Valve? You did actually mention HL3 awhile ago after HL2 was released stating around 2011/2012 maybe.)

Kingdom Hearts 3 (Well its been years. Its likely to show up. I hope so.)

Insomniac project (Their new multiplatform IP.)

Manhunt 3. (Has been hinted for a while, will it show up at E3?)

Guerrilla Games (New IP.)

Starhawk (Lightbox Interactive) [PS3]

The Last Guardian (Sony) [PS3]

Neverwinter (Cryptic) [PC, PS3, X360]

I might buy half of that, lulz.

I doubt it'll actually be more powerful than the PS3 and Xbox 360, but about as powerful, if anything. But if it does turn out to be more powerful, then that would be pretty impressive.TAMKFan

Two days before summer is when OOT 3D comes out.macrules_640

and i am counting down the days, cant wait, i'm playing Majora's Mask in preparation for this day

I should probably pop in OOT on my N64 to get familiar with the game once again.macrules_640

i'm not, i want to be completely surprised on that game on the 3DS with better graphics

It definitely looks a whole lot better than the N64 for sure.macrules_640

definitely and even on no 3D, it looks great

i'll definitely be getting the Biggeron Sword

Good point, though I still love the N64 graphics, wish they had more games like those(look/gameplay wise).

Mitu: We'll see it would be hard to believe it'll be stronger, though you do got a valid point.

So there's a rumor that the Wii 2's graphics are from a Radeon 4000 series, yep, it's already better than PS3 and 360 if true. I used to have a Radeon 4850 that I paid 200 bucks for since 2008 and up until January 2011, amazing card IMO.

Also note that most consoles last 5 years before a new one, some like Xbox 1 had lasted 4 years.

By "powerful" they mean an HDMI port with a new graphics chipset or something.

Let's be honest here, Nintendo should have HD graphics from the get-go. Maybe then they'll be a bit more competitive with the PS3 and the XBOX 360.

That isn't the case this time though as these consoles might be around longer, also let's say Nintendo does and end up releasing a powerful console. like a few users here pointed out Nintendo would be on top with hardware, well until the other two bring their new system out afterward, though it really doesn't matter to me as long as they can get 3rd Party support and a strong online structure that should be good enough. Serbine

I'm glad the Radeon 4000 series is a rumor for now because that goes up to DX10 and no DX11, and DX11 is better than DX10.=p They really should put a Radeon 5670 or 5770, they're like 100 some bucks and does DX11.

I agree with the rest you said though.

Dale: I guess so, Nintendo probably would've got the short end either way.

Mitu: That's seem pretty accurate, If they wanted to they could stick with them longer :lol:, not sure why everyone in the rush toward super realistic imo that would be rather boring, If everything look too similar to real life and had to be pretty spot on in realism, also sound like you got a great computer :D wish I had a better laptop :cry:.

I heard Portal 2's coming out this week (or was it last week?). I never played it before, what's it about really?koolkat14

it is coming out tomorrow, and its a puzzle game where you open holes in the wall to try to manuever stuff or yourself through to try to solve the puzzle, and the voicing is amazing as well along with co-op this time around, i'm going to love it

Serbine, not all games will look super realistic, that's just an art direction. Yes, my PC is good, though my next build is going to own all here.:D I'm going to use 2 video cards at once.;)

Also, Microsoft Hiring For Next-Gen Kinect And Xbox. LOL why Microsoft?

Hmm I guess they need some good people to help them out.macrules_640
