Title: E3  Talk
Post by: AndyC on May 02, 2006, 03:22:47 AM
E3 is just a week away now and I was wondering if there was any game being shown at the event which actually intrests anyone.

I've looked through the lists on IGN as to what's on show but other than Zelda, which we've been seeing for the past twelve months anyway, there's nothing which really stands out to me.

Is everything going to be kept under wraps until the event begins or is there just going to be a severe shortage of games this forth coming year?

well, there's about a dozen games or so for myself personally catering to my tastes in games, but ign's list is hardly a complete one and there's always those showstoppers they pull out during the week.

Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Star Trek: Legacy
Lego Star Wars II
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow
Lost Planet
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
Mass Effect
Chrome Hounds
Phantasy Star Universe
SEGA Rally Revo
God of War II

those are some of IGN's list i'm looking forward too, i'd probably double if i knew the whole list  8)

I have no idea what games are being shown. I want to know more about the Wii.  I also want to know the cost of the PS3. I am still hoping for 699.99

It will be 499.99, 500+ would instantly kill the system and put it out of reach 70% of  it's intended buyers

I agree with that price, since they announced a huge projected operating loss that will be attributed to the PS3 launch. Sounds like some evil empire I know about.

Anyways, I am look forward to the following:

The Revolution (price and launch)
Super Smash Brothers Rev
Metroid Prime 3
TLoZ: TP
Spore
Mother 3 (It will come out here damnit!)
Kingdom Hearts 3 (I can dream right)
A Chrono Trigger Port to the DS (again I can dream)

Doesnt matter, if they want to "get there foot into the door" they can put a 800$ price tag on the system..

Watching it now.  There isn't a security guard in the world that couldn't have kept me from screaming "OUENDAN!!!!!" when they showed Beat Rhythm Squad (or whatever) on that DS montage.

Excellent use of the word "Wii"/we by Iwata.  The name is catching on with me big time.

Saw Gears of War being played on G4's live coverage of E3 and I must say....... |D

This game looks as great as I thought it would and then some!

I cant wait to get it.

Super Smash Bros. rawl
Trailer:
http://www.gamespot.com/e3/e3story.html?sid=6150506&pid=928518&autoplay=6150560


Solid Snake joins the cast of characters along with a few others. Be sure to check out the trailer!

Post by: TraderJake on May 11, 2006, 09:00:15 AM
Yeah, I went from being really disappointed about Nintendo's Wii presentation to extremely satisfied when I saw the SSB screens and game info.

Pretty impressive that Solid Snake is in the game. Here is hoping Sonic and Mega Man may make it too.

Post by: Izret101 on May 11, 2006, 09:42:27 AM
I watched that last night.
It was fucking sick.

Pit and Metaknight look like they could be WICKED kick ass.
They looked like they are going to have really cool fighting mechanics.

Like i said to Dan when we watched the vid this is really evolving into a very impressive and excelletn fighter.


Title: Re: E3  Talk
Post by: blissfulnoise on May 11, 2006, 12:00:58 PM
Super Smash Bros. Brawl is now my most anticipated title from E3.

Anything else they add at this point is gravy.  They had me at "Pit".

Phoenix Wright 2 and Castlevania Portrait of Ruin(which IGN claims is the best game in the franchise hands down) is an instant win.

I also forgot to mention how much I like the looks of that "Classic Controller" for the Wii. The SNES controller is just about my favorite controller, right under the N64 and the Saturn, so that controller is right up my alley. If they would have realeased a controller similar to that instead of that Picaso looking mess for the GameCube, the Gamecube might have done a lil' better.
That Zapper attachment looks badass as well. With attachments like these already being shown for the Wii remote, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with in the future. One thing's for sure...  I'm going to be broke after the Wii Launches.

Anyone else catch the MS presentation for XBox Live Everywhere? Apparantly, your xbox live account will now be a universal account you can not only use on your 360 and PC, but your cell phone as well. You can make whatever changes to your account on any of these mediums, and when you go to play on the 360, the changes you've made will be there for you to implement. I think they also mentioned xbox live arcade playability on cell phones, but I didn't catch all of it.

Post by: Sauza12 on May 12, 2006, 05:02:59 AM
There are way to many games that I am intrested in at this years E3, but my top three are:

1.  Guitar Hero 2
2.  Super Smash Bros. Brawl.  (Snake?  :inlove: )
3.  Halo 3

And I also want to state right here and right now, that I am officially back on the Wii bandwagon.  Come Hell or high water, I'm getting it on launch day.  The library they are announcing looks phenomenal.


Title: Re: E3  Talk
Post by: captain_nintendo on May 12, 2006, 05:35:36 AM
Alot of great games this year. Wii and the 360 have alot I want.

Good thing most of these come out later in the year, because my gaming funds are low on hit points  :P

$599...   and it couldn't handle a Sonic game?  ...That's embarasing.

E3 and they freeze up. I love it!  ::) :D |D :laugh:

That clinches it for me to wait 3 years after launch for it to  drop to $149.99 before buying...and for a slimline version as well.
