M!ke Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I figured we should have a topic for this. Microsoft is about to have their event where they'll be showing off Halo 4 as well as a remake of the original Halo, as well as some other Kinect titles. don't know what else to expect, can't imagine there will be any other bombshells aside from that. Sony has its conference tonight, don't know what they'll be showing off aside from the NGP, which is rumored to now be called the Playstation Vita (latin for life). Nintendo is tomorrow where they'll show off their new console tentatively titled Project Cafe, but the strongest rumor right now is that its actual name will be simply Nintendo. Also rumored is the unveiling of another brand new Zelda (not Skyward Sword). They'll likely show off the new handheld 3D Mario platformer and a collection of other new flagship titles. Seems to be a very promising event this year for all companies. Love getting geeky video game info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmnop Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 halo 4? i thought they were done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 halo 4? i thought they were done We all did. I think its time to face the fact that Halo will never die, its Microsoft's bread and butter. The remake of the original has already been confirmed. It also appears that Minecraft is coming exclusively (in terms of consoles) to the 360. Edit: Halo 4 has indeed been confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken-royal Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Loved how the Battlefield 3 was played on PC. However, EA's new Origin store (their version of Steam) seems a waste of time. I've got almost every PC game I play on Steam, so I've go zero interest in another account for PC gaming. Seems to be a popular opinion too on other websites/forums.

Thomas D. Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Saw some ingame action of MW3. Looks exactly like MW2. COD is going down just like guitar hero went down. Activision is filled with retards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Nintendo's show (the one I look most forward to for the new system) goes live in about a half an hour, you can stream it live here: http://e3.nintendo.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 So the new Nintendo console is called the WiiU The 6in touch screen in the controller was confirmed and they showed off all its possiblities. And showed off the graphical capabilities of the console (looks phenomenal). it appears that many 3rd parties are eager to develop for it, and Nintendo also appears to be doing the legit online experience as well. It seems very exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M!ke Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 these japs need to come up with some better names for consoles haha I'll agree with you there. Nintendo's best name was one they didn't even use, the Revolution. Still the system looks awesome, and they confirmed a new Smash Brothers, fucking yes!

It seems very exciting. I only saw the demo with the ocean and the fish along with the montage of new games for it, but it really wasn't that that groundbreaking or impressive. Looked on par with the 360/PS3, not any better, not any worse. But it's launching almost 6 years after they did, so that's pretty weak.

tReerAT Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 yup, it's kinda lost that magic. especially when you see it being covered on news channels and other sources of media that have no connection to video games. I guess it's that old man in me that can't except the new, "back in my day i had to carry my xbox to a friends house up a hill in a blah blah blah" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably don't even know what those are" Said in an old mans voice. But yay Sims 3 Pets. Mean. Well it would be if I could play it on something.

Cheerios4u98 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I am so excited for Zelda: Skyward Sword but I am sick of waiting for it year after year. Nintendo really did a terrible job when it came to releasing Zelda games on Wii. We got a Gamecube port, a stupid mini-game (Crossbow Training) and now we're finally getting a full on original Zelda game but it's coming right at the console's death. I hope the WiiU (stupid name) does better with Zelda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
