    92% failure rate on PS3, and we're all getting our money back.
    GT5 has been delayed.....:D

    What's with all the pre-E3 announcements? Surely they should be trying to keep this stuff for the big event, unless they're trying to avoid leaks like last year by pre-empting them :confused:

    Well they've had the entire news cycle to themselves for the last couple of weeks which could be another factor. Trying to build up the hype train before E3 even hits.

    I'd say one of the stories will be that Uncharted 3 will be announced


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,448 ✭✭✭ongarite


    Resistance 3 & StarHawk

    BELIEVE!!

    EDIT:
    Its Killzone 3 and Socom 4 gameplay trailers.

    Humm I dunno....that's not really a HUGE announcement is it.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,894 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    A new Trico trailer and a release date of 2015 and Legend of Dragoon 2: The Shittening.

    I don't think we'll hear anything about that until TGS at the earliest. They don't want to take attention away from the games that are coming out this year and early next, like Killzone and LBP2 etc.

    I'd say one will be the firmware for the 3D update because Sony are launching their range of HD3D TVs very soon.

    The other will be a firmware update so all PS3s are BC compatible with PS2 games.:pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,979 ✭✭✭Tea_Bag

    If it was just the time and date they would be "huge" announcements if given by Kevin Butler


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭NotorietyH


    I wonder is the 'huge' a play on words and it's two announcements to do with LittleBigPlanet or something.

    Cant access the links on my phone :-(

    Anyone want to let me know how the gameplay looks? Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭CombatCow


    They both look like their predecessors.....:cool:

    Yeah, seems PS3 graphics peaked last year with KZ2 and U2 and now games are going to look the same and just add features. KZ3 adds 3D and SOCOM 4 adds "Move" abilities.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,753 ✭✭✭qz


    The KZ3 gameplay looks pretty much like KZ2, although with added jetpack awesomeness.

    And melee kills of snapping necks and stabbing Helghast in the eye with a knife.

    Bit of a letdown really. Misleading calling them announcements, as it's just trailers for games we're already aware of and they didn't show any new features or anything. All a bit meh. Even if they were announcements I wouldn't call them huge.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Two huge announcements? Seems like one announcement with is more of a statement than an announcement, and one that anyone with half a brain already knew; "We're making more ****ing FPSs."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭WolfForager


    Yep, Soccom4 and KIllzone2 trailers. Wouldn't have called em huge tbh.

    Trailers aren't announcements :(

    I have no interest in the Socom series at all, especially the motion controlled one. I've never played one (bar a PSP demo) but it looks too much like a generic military shooter for me.

    I will be buying an XBOX 360 and Forza if it is delayed anymore.

    It's not far away now. At the end of the Modnation Racers video, Kevin Butler said his next commercial would be for GT5.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,318 ✭✭✭weiland79


    I am a big fan of the Socom series but that trailer doesn't really do it for me. The previous Socom games were all about stealth and that trailer looks like it could have been ripped from any recent action game. Come on Zipper please don;'t run with the crowd and give us something special!
    Oh and why the hell is there a chick in the squad, political correctness gone mad i say!
