RoboRobb Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 With E3 starting this Monday, kicking off with the Microsoft Press Conference, What are your Predictions/Opinions about the Show overall? Who do you think will win the Press Conference Battle Between Microsoft/Nintendo/Sony? Rumors have been going apeshit over what they will all announce (eg. new Pikmin/Zelda/Mario @ Nintendo, Primarily Motion Controller for the Ps3, New Motion Camera for 360) Supposedly Valve is going to elaborate further on Half Life 2 ep3 which according to rumors with have all new Ip's packaged in. Also Portal 2 is rumored, but then again Destructoid.com Reported on Left 4 Dead 2 being announced which I seriously doubt.What are your thoughts on what everyone will announce? and what are your predictions for the biggest announcements that'll hapeen at the show?

Darkstar Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I do hope that valve make an appearance at this E3but i havent read much into this years E3, its sort of crept up on me silently, but i hope there will be some decent titles announced this year, last year it was pretty much sequels being announced Quote Link to comment
Botervloot Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 - Rumors of Valve doing things. Maybe Ep3, but rumors.- Microsoft announces a big game/hit.- Bethesda shows of "Brink"- Sony *might* show a price drop on the PS3- Lots of 3th Party games for Wii, but also some good games. More 18+.

Clavus Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I think Valve will show some stuff from Episode 3. If they won't, it means Episode 3 won't come till 2011.They might announce a new L4D DLC too. Quote Link to comment

If they won't, it means Episode 3 won't come till 2011.They might announce a new L4D DLC too.Hopefully they will show Episode 3, Im confident they will but Valve likes to keep everyone guessing & waiting. Whatever they plan on doing, they've got something planned for E3. Quote Link to comment
Chikennugget1 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 There will be E.Y.E,it's based on source engine Also,some infos about Halo 3:ODST (new trailer?)I hope there will be an Episode 3 trailer/gameplay announcement,or why not some new games (Portal 2 with the multiplayer 8D).I really hope they won't make a fail E3,because since 2007 it became shitty :/ Quote Link to comment
RoboRobb Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 New Psp looks interesting. Pics & Video just leaked.High Quality PicturesArticle & Video (however long its up for )Thoughts??! I think it looks pretty awesome to be honest. But I said that about the original PSP - And it did but it failed to deliver with games that are actually good. Quote Link to comment
Darkstar Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 - Sony *might* show a price drop on the PS3thats debateable, but possibly possible Quote Link to comment
RoboRobb Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) Crysis 2 announced, Multi-platform. lame but who didnt see that coming.http://kotaku.com/5273719/crysis-2-is-anno...-multi+platform2 hours until the Microsoft Press Conference.

Chikennugget1 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 rofl,powerful than crysis 1,that's weird,a lot of people still can't play crysis because it's heavy and it needs a lot of resources,so a crysis 2... Oo Quote Link to comment

I can't possibly imagine how they could. The new engine is mostly made to optimize the game for the consoles. Quote Link to comment
Mayco Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Left 4 Dead 2 confirmed.Trailer Quote Link to comment
RoboRobb Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 Highlights of the Microsoft Press Conference -Halo Reach confirmed Crackdown 2 shownModern Warfare 2 gameplay shown - Dude had a motion sensor on his gun.Twitter & Facebook support available on Xbox LiveInstant 1080p videos, films etc. Sky Tv also available for U.K users.Motion camera called project 'Natal' announced. - Full Motion body sensors! quote - "YOU ARE THE CONTROLLER"Creepy 'Milo' Project. Strange but fascinating.Next Metal Gear Solid - Rising Confirmed on 360. Left 4 Dead 2! (seriously shocked)Thoughts everyone??I think It was a huge surprise seeing Left 4 Dead 2 so early. I would of thought Valve would be all guns blazing with Episode 3. The motion camera looks interesting but seems a bit buggy at some points, though it is still being developed. Quote Link to comment

RoboRobb Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Main Highlights of the EA and Ubisoft Conferences-Electronic Arts * Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect 2 and Star Wars: The Old Republic is a triple threat from BioWare. Very impressive stuff. * Peter Moore showed off lots of Sports stuff included Fight Night Round 4, EA MMA, Madden online franchise options, and NCAA team builder. * Need for Speed SHIFT shows off some impressive in-cockpit views. They're giving away a BMW at their booth. * The Saboteur looks like it's coming along nicely with a unique undersaturated style. * Crysis 2 will be released on the X360, PC and PS3. * APB is a quasi-MMO with lots of action and morality choices. * Brutal Legend looks pretty sweet. More gameplay show with part 2 of the Jack Black video shown. * Littlest Pet Shop shows that EA is heavily focused on attracting a younger audience to their games. * EA focused on fitness games for the women's market.Ubisoft * Assassin's Creed II cinematic shown. First game sold 8 million units. Looks great. * Splinter Cell: Conviction one of Ubi's biggest games this year. Demo footage shown was the same as the MS conference. * Working with James Cameron on a game based on his film Avatar. It will be a 3D game. * R.U.S.E tabletop demo shown. Continues to look like a great hardcore strategy game. * Ubisoft is really pushing their pairing with Hollywood to their shareholders. * Red Steel 2 will be bundled with the Wii Motion Plus. Controls look better then the first game. * Rabbids and TMNT are two games being targeted at the younger Wii market. * Ubi is focusing hard on the "Tween Market". Many games targeting at girls. * Like EA, Ubi is also focusing on fitness games. * Working with Pele on a kid friendly soccer game called Academy of Champions.Best parts were the new Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer & Assassins Creed 2. Splinter Cell: Conviction looked sharp too. Quote Link to comment

Clavus Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Microsoft's new motion sensing thingie looks pretty cool, but those things only really appear work in commercials, where they have a football field of space in front of their TV. Quote Link to comment
