@Millenium - :D Thanks for all the info. I am still really excited for their conference... I just hope this year they concentrate more on showing the gamers who watch the conference what they want to see... such as Gabe coming out to announce HL3 ( XD yeah right ) .
Reminds me of this:

WiiU zelda hype!
|
XD oh god no... it's far too painful. We only just got Skyward Sword, so I don't see there being an announcement till at least next E3.
.... but if..... big if.... Miyamoto does come onto stage like he did during E3 2004, and announces Zelda Wii U .....
.... 
( edit: sorry mantlepiecek XD )
The latest batch of WiiU rumors are both super annoying and super exciting at the same time!!! I want E3 NOW!!!!!! D:
Only 6 more days?!?!! :D
Today's game to hype: 
Announced during last years EA press conference, Overstrikes pre-rendered trailer shows that the game is going to be a very fun and action-packed adventure... however, it has been a year since then and we still haven't seen what the game actually looks like. Hopefully Insomniac has been hard at work the past year and are able to show us a demo, or perhaps just some footage during EA's conference this year. The concept is promising, so lets just hope the game can actually live up to it.
"Set in the near-future, Overstrike follows a team of four elite agents (Overstrike 9) obliterating enemy strongholds using fringe-tech gadgets and lethal teamwork. Overstrike 9 is comprised of a reformed mercenary, a lifelong mischievous thief, a gifted but rebellious young scientist and a decorated detective…with a bit of a temper. Collectively, they’re the misfits – the black sheep their own agency tries to ignore. But a shadowy organization threatens to wipe out humankind. Thanks to each agent’s unique talents and a tendency to completely ignore protocol – Overstrike 9 is the only option left. Overstrike blends developer Insomniac Games’ flair for exotic weaponry and immersive storytelling with a touch of humor."
| Millenium said: For The 4 Of Us who want to watch the Microsoft Media Briefing:
FIRST OF ALL… WHAT IS E3?
E3 (or the Electronic Entertainment Expo) is the most important videogames show in the world. It’s where all the big news is announced. For videogames, it’s like the Oscars, the World Cup and Christmas all happening at once. It’s pretty big. And it starts on Monday 4th June... It usually happens in two phases. On the Monday and Tuesday it’s all about the press conferences. All the big console manufacturers and games publishers hold big events to show off their new stuff and grab the headlines. Then from Tuesday afternoon onwards the showfloor itself opens up at the Los Angeles Convention Centre. This is where E3 attendees can see and play all the new games, and also where loads of crazy stuff goes on… Most important of all, every year at E3 Xbox holds a press conference (or Media Briefing as it’s sometimes called) where we talk about all the cool stuff that’s coming up in the next year.
XBOX MEDIA BRIEFING? THAT SOUNDS COOL. CAN I WATCH IT?
Course you can! You can either sit on an 11 hour flight to LA then scrap with thousands of other journalists to get into the press conference in person. Or you can make a cup of tea, sit back in your favourite chair and watch it live from the comfort of your home. And this year, for the first time EVER, you’ll be able to watch it on Xbox LIVE if you are an Xbox LIVE Gold member!
This year the Xbox E3 2012 Media Briefing takes place at the Galen Center in Los Angeles at 5.30pm UK time on Monday, June 4. It will last for 90 minutes. Here's how you can watch:
Once the press conference is finished you'll be able to catch up, see highlights, or watch it again in its entirety (it will take a little while for the full Media Briefing to be ready for re-viewing):
WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING AT E3 2012?
Lots and lots of cool stuff that we’ll be bringing to you on the Xbox UK Facebook page. Look out for the biggest announcements, the hottest new trailers, photos and news direct from the show and the parties, and probably some weird stuff too. If you’re interested in other games publishers (like EA or Activision) or even other consoles (we don’t mind. Not much, anyway…) you should check their websites before their press conferences – usually they do live streams too! Here’s what’s happening and when, all in one handy place for you (we might update this list as more things are announced):
MONDAY JUNE 4:
Xbox Media Briefing, Galen Center, LA: 9.30am LA / 5.30pm UK EA Press Conference: 1pm LA / 8pm UK Ubisoft Press Conference: 3pm LA / 11pm UK PlayStation Press Conference: 6pm LA / 2am Tuesday UK Xbox Showcase Event: 8pm LA / 4am Tuesday UK TUESDAY JUNE 5: Nintendo Press Conference: 9am LA / 5pm UK E3 Showfloor Opens, LA Convention Center: 12noon LA / 8pm UK Xbox E3 Booth After Hours Event (presentations and hands-ons):6pm LA / 2am UK WEDNESDAY JUNE 6: E3 Showfloor Opens, LA Convention Center: 10am LA / 6pm UK THURSDAY JUNE 7: By Thursday things are usually winding down, and the showfloor closes on Thursday evening. Don’t forget – the Xbox UK Facebook page will be out at E3 2012 bringing you the sights, sounds and smells (well, maybe not the smells, but that’s probably for the best) of E3. Stick with us and you won’t miss a thing! |

i wonder if this hasn't become vapourware
there was absolute no follow up news to the E3 trailer, no screenshots, no gameplay, nothing to generate any hype for the game. Especially since Insomniac seems to focus all its efforts on another game right now.
there was also another game announced last E3 that looked quite similar gameplay wise: Brothers in Arms: Furious 4, and it has lately been rumored to have been quitely dropped.
maybe they were not received well enough at E3, i hardly heard anyone being hyped for them.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

T_T Yeah, you might be right... which would suck because it could end up being a fantastic game. It was quite strange in the first place to have a pre-rendered trailer and not any gameplay to show. That's acceptable for something like Halo 4, because we know how Halo games play. Though with a new IP they should really have something to show from the get-go.

makes me wonder if it had generated more hype and interest if it had stayed a Sony exclusive... or god forbid, have been announced as Xbox eclusive 
...thinking about it, as it was obviously a co-op game, it would be interesting to see a game that allows to play coop between a Vita and PS3 version, that would eliminate the split screen.
that would also be a great feature for Wii-U games offline coop or vs. One player uses the conroller with the screen, and the other plays on the TV with a classic controller or a nunchuck.

arrrrgh, you tease! Damn, now I really hope it's still in development, just to see how co-op is handled.
Hmmmm... that gets me thinking about co-op as a whole for the Wii U. It'll be interesting to see what developers come up with with the three controller choices they have.
