Disappointed by E3? Wait a Month

sock merchant|6506d ago |News|29|

Button Masher writes: "At least two of the big players at E3 commented about announcements not made at E3 and games that were not on show. There has been no comment from Microsoft about the lack of Alan Wake at E3 but both Sony and EA are making hints that their Leipzig lineups contain something that a lot of people went away wanting after E3, new stuff."

August 20 - 24. Cannot wait for another round of awesomeness.

And then again comes Tokyo Game show October 9 - 12. Mark your calendars.

BTW, I heard that Square Enix's press conference is in about two weeks, is that right?

21st to 24th of August.

Sadly, with E3 losing its soul, we have to wait Leipzig's Game Convention for having other announcements, and if GC disappoint, we will say "Wait until TGS!" and if TGS disappoint, "Wait until E3!", etc...

People knew this would come.

PS3 has legions of games for the gamers where as 360 is same old same old. Nothing new because there was hardly anything left.

I suppose Banjo is "new". They only announced that one a few months ago. I give props where props is deserved.

It is a good time to be a PS3 owner and if people cannot see the value of the PS3, people need to question their IQ level.

5 years from now, the console war will be over and people will look back and ask themselves whether they have missed the golden age of gaming. PS3 owners will not miss out a thing. Sadly, the competition owners will cry.

When do they have the main Sony and MS conferences? Cos there is Games Convention Devloper's Conference which is from 18-20 August ( http://www.gcdc.eu/index.ph...

And then there is the Games Convention from August 20-24, which I think is open to the public to play games, rather than for conferences.

Veryangryxbot, your a F-ing idiot who knows nothing. I would love to test your IQ. My guess is your a 12 year old inbred with a brain made of cheese. Kindly take your fanboys BS else where, or better yet,go slit your wrists, do the world a favour.

Let us all hope there is lots of great announcements still to come from both camps. As a gamer with all the next gen consoles that would be awesome.

I have no time for this G@Y fanboy crap that people on N4G seem to think is cool. Grow up people, please!

E3 is Best when the Next Gen comes out, later on in the years is slows down, with many broken promises! Bet i'ma get a few disagree an a bubble gone because like people take bubbles away for your comments not cause you offended them! which is a reason why i hate this bubble system. It wont let gammers voice their true opinions with out some fanboy giving you silly repercussions!

I just don't get it... Why wait a month? Why not have shown us everything at E3... I know you want to keep somethings secret but isn't E3 like the "Big" Show? I can see some RPG's for TGS or some other stuff for Liepzig but WTH? E3 is supposed to be "The show"...

nirwanda6506d ago

E3 probably a less than a quarter the size of TGS and leipzig now and has no access to the public

I think Liepzig will turn into the new big show for the western audience plus with it being slightly later in the year it gives devs more time to get better builds up and running for it christmas lineup titles

snoopgg6505d ago

The wii really hasn't blown away anybody in the next gen race, cause they have no next gen machine. Their game lineup is the weakest there has ever been. I wouldn't want to own the wii if it was $100.OO. There just isn't any games on that system that are worthy of my time. Nintendo wake up and get into the Hd generation of gaming. Your online sucks also. Playing the wii is like having a tv with no digital tuner next year, useless and worthless at the same time.

Freak of Nature6506d ago

I always want to see more from the "big hitters",games like Little big planet,Gears 2,Killzone 2,Banjo 3,Resident evil 5,Fable 2,Prince of Persia,etc,etc...

But at Leipzig I want to see something,anything at all of games like..... Team Ico's next game (But that game has TGS wriiten all over it),Jax 4,Uncharted 2,Beyond good and evil 2,God of War 3,Heavy Rain,and Bungie's "superintendent game"?

And how about that BBC reporters "mystery game",will that finally be shown,I sure hope so.

and "steal" the show from sony AGAIN by announcing the "BUNGIE BOMB"!

Homeless Lemmings, Run For Cover.

@2: sony over-hypes everything (4D, 1080p, 120fps) just to name a few.
sony always premieres CGI FIRST, (MS, KZ2, GOW3, MAG) which is no indication of how the FINAL game will either look or play. If I don't see GAMEPLAY and LOTS OF IT... I'm not getting excited over a movie.
All CGI means is, wait 2 years.

Does Killzone 2 ring anybells? that looks like the hype is worth it. and by the looks of the recent Killzone 2 videos which are in-game, im pretty sure it looks really close to the infamous 2005 CGI video that everyone went crazy about, not to mention Motorstorm 2. Thats why im pretty Sure God of War 3 would be very close to that E3 08 video.

Now heres the real question. why did microsoft showed Halo 3 in CGI first??? looks like all that hype for Halo 3 to look like that trailers went up into disapointment...OOPS!!!! did i say that ROFL

when MS announced HALO 3 that wasnt a bomb at least in my opion its something everybody already knew was comming kinda like the GoW 3 trailer everybody knew it was comming and a halo 4 would not surprise me Nad i don't think would be a bomb a BOMB would be revealing sony's mystery game that is supposed to change the capability of console gaming in terms of story-telling and imersion at least thats how good its been made out to be. I would be interested in seeing that

E3 is not the only game convention of the year, all three companies will spread their news out so that they can make a huge announcement at each event.

E3 is much smaller now, has much less of an impact and is now seen as 'just another games conference', plus I'm sure Sony will unleash some new games upon us come Leipzig. If not that, they'll present more new info on current projects.

I would love it if Sony gave us a confirmed date for Home (In October?), a date for the start of the KZ2 beta (In December?) and more info on what's happening with the trophy support updates.
