Well, E3's finished for another year. What did you think of what was there? What game(s) are you waiting for?

For those who haven't been keeping up with E3:

Personally, I can't wait for Oblivion, Dreamfall, Worms 4, and Warhammer 40k: Winter Assault.

The legend of zelda: twilight princess interests me the most as well as Nintendogs.

petes

Zelda

KdjaCL

Zelda, Full Auto and Prey.


Zelda for obvious reaons, Full Auto looks fun and Prey looks like one of the best FPS games in a long time.


3 consoles wowed me but realisticaly Rev be the one i buy unless the others are sub 300 blips on release. Have a decent PC so others showed me nothing worth getting the console to play. Altho Full Auto looks fun its not a game i would just buy a console to play.

Overall little disappointed by E3

From E3... Zelda tops my list as well as the advent of the new consoles.

BlitzKrieg

sonic cd and sonic the fiighters being released on gamecube (and hopefully ps2 etc later) tops my list.

Okami (PS2) was the game of the show. If you know nothing about it, look it up. amazing stuff

Looks very strange. I'm most looking forward to Prey.

CyberGhost

Call of duty 2
Battlefield 2

Zelda.

Ditto with Zelda. What was the game on the Ps3 that I saw a video for.. it was an army thing, explosions everywhere, looked really really good whatever it was.

Killzone 2? There were soldiers on a bridge.

What I saw of Spore was still incredible. Although not a whole lot that hadn't been seen before E3. Still by far the most interesting game around at the moment in my opinion.

Although MGS4 had to be the best trailer of any E3 ever. Classic.

a few things, Nintendogs is now a must have, and probably Electroplankton too.
I will probably be getting an 360, so Ghost Recon 3, Dead Rising (or whatever that zombie game was) and maybe one or two others.

OY

Thought nintendogs looked interesting too, like tomagochi only...well a lot better!
But yeah... Zelda all the way. Can't wait to play that game.

Was really disappointed with the Revolution... no games, nothing! Just a black box and that was it. Nice that it is no bigger than 3 dvd cases and am interested in the backwards capability of it. But once again, Nintendo are behind the rest.

IMHO i think that the leader of the pack was Sony. But we will see how it all works out.

Yeah the PS3 looks promising. The Killzone2 video did look great, but I don't believe that's released till Q4 2006. At this early stage I'm not going to get very excited over some CG promos. I remember I got all excited about The Getaway graphics when the PS2 was new. It turned out the early screenshots were actually photographs of London!!

So I now find it hard to form an opinion from pre-release games. Especially after Halo2 which shamelessly let hype build up about something that was never in the game. And now they're making Halo3 with what should have been in Halo2.

Since before E3 I've been mostly anticipating F.E.A.R. and CoD2.

BlitzKrieg

what was hyped up about halo 2 that wasnt in it?

cregser

All the pre-release videos were about a mass covenant invasion of earth. The "invasion" turned out to be 1 or 2 levels at the start of the game. I was expecting an epic battle to save earth. How does Halo2 end? - with the prelude to an epic battle on Earth.

BlitzKrieg

ahh true true...i understand...i sometimes wonder what each fps will donate when i decide to make te
he greatest fps ever by combining all the best things of each...simply put the only thing coming from the halo franchise will be the grenade system.


but back on topic. E3...no surprises...but i am partly disapointed with Sega's offerings...actually i've been disapointed with them alot lately.

cregser

Halo - nades and rockets
CoD - cinematic sound, multiplayer
Chronicles of Riddick - hand-to-hand combat, mech soldiers
Goldeneye - as much a possible
Perfect Dark - laptop gun
Timesplitters - dual miniguns
Red Faction - stuff falling apart
Duke Nukem - tits & ass, character personality (sound bites when something cool happens)

What a game!

Prior Of Taize

I was hoping they would show a panzer dragoon game.

BlitzKrieg

that is it!

retro your no longer allowed post on the same topic as me! We both think too much of panzer dragoon! Even the mention of it puts me in the mood to load up Zwei and try and reach my ultimate form.


DAMN YOU!



DAMN YOOOOOOOOU!

Well if it makes you better I'm doing a report on the (pitiful amount of) work I've done for the year, which decides if I get paid next year and you are keeping me away from doing it
