Forums - Gaming - IGN's Overall Best of E3 2008 Awards

Griffin said:
Fallout 3 had the worst showing at e3, the game looks and plays like crap, he shot a Nuke at 3guys and one of them survived, WTF. People say Gears and KZ have no colour, look at fallout, the game had zero colour. The gameplay was broken up by some useless aiming thing, he shot some guy and his limbs flew off. The world was crazy empty too.

Gears2 over Crysis and Killzone2, thats just laughable. We all know crysis destroys any console game, and Gears2 looks so dated compared to KZ2.

 

In your expert opinion, why was the PS3 snubbed?



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Wow, the PS3 got totally snubbed. IGN, lol. I thought PS3 fanboys loved them. No PS3 exclusives even nominated for best console game. LBP barely mentioned. This is gonna get worse before it gets better.

I agree with them about Fallout 3. Fable 2 looked great, but Fallout 3 just blew me away.

 

I think RE5 shoulda won something.

Fallout 3 was crap at E3. It was very disappointing.

 

You wouldn't happen to be a PS3 fanboy, would you?

I'm just kidding. I know you are. Your posts are usually quick and harsh.

As for Fallout 3, it actually owned. Everyone who played it, instead of just looked at a demo, realized that.

Also, I guess they couldn't give CGI games any awards, and LBP has been at the show since last years....so I generally understand and agree with their unbiased decisions.

What say you? Are they anti-PS3 or just stupid, in your unbiased opinion?

 

 

Are you high Zen....Shio is a PC guy....he's mad that Spore didn't win.  There are enough PS3 fanboys around here without you creating them where they aren't.

I don't know some names, I don't keep up with this stuff, I deal with one hater at a time. If you got generalized unfairly, feel free to post on my wall.

Just replace PS3 fanboy with Spore fanboy in my previous post and it's the same thing. Doesn't matter. It's still marginalization, still hate, still the same result.

Spiteful and angry with this list, trying to justify why it didn't turn out like they wanted it to.

Hate the websites, don't hate the games, imo.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Ahh...well if your indignation was toward fanboys in general than I apologize. You must not know Shio's preference as well as I, his utter disdain of JRPG's and love for WRPG's interests me as it's the complete opposite of my own.



...

so fallout 3 is the game to get?

I know it sounds like an obvious response coming from me - but the Xbox360 did REALLY well, probably according to IGN the best console from the show.

Consider also that Fallout 3 has special sauce with the Xbox360 exclusively it gives an even better edge there as well along the RPG front.

Starcraft will be Pi$$ed that Fable 2 didn't win 2-4 more awards. xD



Tease.

gears of war 2 win the best shooting game, banjo is one of the best Platform games... heh .. and some guys said its look bad ?!
but i dont know why GOW 2 win the best Graphics ?? to be honest GOW 2 look the same as the first & i think Killzone 2 have better graphics... i think this will make sonyfans happy lol.

In my bitter experience with the man, I've found him to be a stealth assassin's type poster, who likes to simply watch until the opportunity for a scathing comments reveals itself.

That's vastly off topic, however.

It appears that Fallout 3 is everything I'd hoped. Here are the facts of my knowledge about the game.

 

The presser at the MS conference kinda sucked. I was dissapointed in the game.

Then, luckily, later I was able to view the game on G4 at a personal demo and I realized just how great the game really does look.

First, is appears that the world and order in which you do things is completely open. Also, the game isn't a FPS and doesn't revolve around the combat, unlike the MS demo made it appear. Instead, combat is actually very nearly turn based, with percentages covering each limb.

Also, your own limbs are suceptable to damage, which can gimp your abilities until you've healed your wounds.

You can takes pills, but you can also get addicted to them, and your abilities will decrease until you find more of them.

There are these booths that you can just duck into in the middle of battles to protect yourself, very wierd.

The story seems fantastic with this sort of overworld halfassed government thing. Lots of cool stuff, and a very fallout2esque flavor in the game.

 

Most people who hate on it, don't really know much about it. They've seen the MS presser and the demo sucked, so they assume the game was a dissapointment.

However, they failed to follow E3 pass the press conferences or marginalized the game, judging a "book by its cover."

I am fully expecting a 2 page flame about how my opinion is wrong, and how I've unfairly characterized everything, ect.

Really though, I mean, I've been posting here long enough, you know what's up. Fallout 3 will be great. You don't have to go track down if I'm right and post opinions about how you think it'll be. Just TRUST me. Fallout 3 will probably be great. I'm guessing AAA. Don't flame it, cause it's gonna come back on you when the game is released.

 Well, IGN played the games...so they have an informed opinion of which game has the better graphics.
