e3 2006!

Post by Den »

As some of you may know, its e3 week which means that we will get to see many new games!

So what is the e3?
The Electronic Entertainment Expo (or Exposition), commonly known as E³, is the world's largest annual trade show and the third largest gaming convention for the computer and video games industry
http://www.e3expo.com/

I'll be updating this thread with links of trailers/screenshots/conferences. I saw Sony's press conference few hours ago and it was pretty interesting but i kinda expected something bigger from Sony. I cant wait for Microsoft's and Nintendo's press conference. Should be good :D

Just saw the whole conference of sony, some games seemed kinda new and cool, Heavenly Sword was like ninja gaiden, Will probably rock.
But I expected more tho, I bet nintendo will deliver much better :D :heart:

PS3 will fail.

Not only they didnt come up with a new controlling device, they leaped back to teh oh so horrible DualShock layout, stole motion detection from Wii and the "Universal-Do-Kinda-All-Things-And-Go-To-Teh-Options-And-Shit" button from Xbox360.

And dont even try to play the Fanboy-card on me, I'm just damn disappointed on Sony, once again. (Emotion Engine anyone?)

And the price, when it finally ships out, you can propably get Wii + xbox360 for the price of the sucky, cut down version of PS3 without HDMI, Memcard readers and Wlan.

:(

I think its costs too much for a console. PS3 has so many fancy stuff, i doubt many people will use it (blu-ray)

will anyone ever make something as fast and simple as aq2 again?

with a gameplay system that promotes chat and helps to build a community?

i play bf2 on the same server most days and it has no sense of community. if you type something it just goes away. noone chats, you dont meet ppl and noone really cares.

deathmatch games suffer from this as well. die/spawn/die/spawn no time for chat

it sucks i tell you, sucks...it...sucks

i go to 2 aq2 msg boards regularly, people really do care and are very involved.

so will anyone make a game that has action and community in one package?

not looking good...who can i write to>? will my local concil member care?
