I agree, I think it is because of the new format. Also is the new PSP called Slim & lite? I would rather prefer PSP slim or PSP lite (although psp slim is more probable) |
add me
Why are people hyped over UT3? I for one would get it on the PC, and I can't think of any reason a Unreal FPS fan is going to get it for the PS3 instead of the PC.
WiiBoard looks very cool and I wasn't expecting it, having the Zapper and wheel both bundled with games was a good idea by ninty. Wii version of MOH having 32 person multiplayer was a great surprise! And ofcourse the announcement that a "zapper game" was being made by ninty...Maybe he IS going to make Halo??? :D
So far this E3 I quite liked AC and Fracture - both coming to the PC :)
Infamous looked kind of interesting and the weather effects of Killzone 2 looked nice.

I'm still waiting to hear what "surprises" sony had. As far as I'm concerned they didn't show anything we didn't already know about. Sure Killzone 2 looked nice, but when all is said and done most people seem more excited aby COD4, RE5, Halo 3, nothing for Killzone 2 convinced it will sell amazing. The Price Drop we all knew about, the slim psp we all knew, Heavenly Sword, Warhawk, Lair, MGS, and just about every other game they showed we knew about already and we didn't see anything new to change our opinion about them. This time around Home now feels old already and came off like an annoying waiting room for the console. Infamous was new and looked interesting, but the short clip was hardly enough to apreciate the gameplay. GT 5 look like the free demo, and they didn't say anything else about it, or even it's release date.
the best thing about Sony is Little Big Planet, the new videos looked amazing, amazing, amazing. It's the only game they showed that really looked ground breaking. Honestly these next gen guys really have to start pushing the envelope, I'm a little sick of every game looking look like a a dark sci-fi shooter, with hardly anything new in gameplay. The only game that looked to be breaking ground in that area is Fracture.
I have to agree that Little Big Planet is very good, it really captures the imagination.

| albionus said: That brings up where I think, as evidenced WiiGirl76, Sony failed terribly, why should anyone who isn't only deciding whether to get a 360 or a PS3 buy their system? This was a trade event, Sony needed to show industry types that they have some idea about how to get back into the 100+ million casual market they used to dominate. Instead they gave little indication that they have any clue that market exists. |
I actually think that's a pretty sound strategy, for now. I mean, who else are you going to sell a $500 console?
MS is starting to get to a point where they can sell (a version of) their machine to more casual gamers. If they drop the Core price by $50+ for the holidays and bundle a memory card, for instance, that might be a good deal for some.
Sony, I see no way of getting any of its consoles bellow $400 for these holidays, and that's optimistic. I really don't think they'll do better than a 80GiB model at $500 in time for Christmas. That's a hard sell for the non core audiences.
Maybe a special bundle will help. I was looking at Kotaku earlier and there was something about a PS3 bundle in Europe that (for the same price as before) includes Resistance, Motorstorm, and an extra Sixaxis packed in.
*edit* Found it, it looks like it's a rumor, but who knows.

Oh Kotaku also had a report that a Sony rep confirmed a rumbling Sixaxis. Though we have no real details about it, what about all those Sixaxis complaints?
Well some aren't giving Sony enought credit. Too much whining about how Sony won just because Microsoft and Nintendo lost. Really it wasn't even close. In all likelihood most people will come out of E3 giving Sony the win because will Microsoft and Nintendo will come out of the show with pretty much the same standing as they went in, Sony will come out with a lot of people excited about the future of the system that weren't excited before the show. I have no plans to buy a PS3 this year, but stuff like LittleBigPlanet and Killzone 2 gets me much closer.

Man, I'm sorry, but that's a strange way to read it. Killzone was as known as Wii Fit: if you had no idea it would look that good, nobody had any idea Fit would come with such a cool device attached. Same goes for timed exclusives, at least Haze... they were as rumored and hinted at as MK Wii was (nobody could know for sure it would come this soon, and online was only expected because of MK DS). Not that this means Sony's wasn't an exciting conference - just that I think you're being unfair. You may think it's silly, but since it's may favorite franchise of all time, I was as hyped about MK as you'll ever be about Killzone, MGS, or whatever. I was expecting Reggie to say Brawl had online, when he said MK... well. I'm also pretty much drooling on Galaxy's (or Brawl's) graphics, as much as you can be at Killzone's (or MGS's). Sony's presentation was indeed exciting, even for me, but I was having trouble finding a 30s sequence without a shot, a blast, a slice, etc... and that's way too much action for me! Plus it's also a lot about expectations. If it wasn't for MK I'd personally be a lot less pleased. For Nintendo, though, all that mattered was presenting their next 20m seller, and that's all over the press already, so they're pleased too. Sony, I think, has every reason to be pleased too - they captured their audience, and did so very well. Since, the way I see it, no other audience will put down $500 for a console easily, that's a pretty sound strategy. Microsoft... I don't know. Their own fans don't seem very pleased. Well, to each his own, I guess... |
Whats all over the gaing sites isnt wii-fit its the games, and killzone 2 has alot of attention.
