RandomNPC : Editorial-Who Won E3?

Jordan Jackson writes "Natal has potential. It's a maybe. The Vitality Sensor was promised to help people relax, maybe sleep better. It's working already, but not quite the way they intended and certainly not to its benefit. The Sony Wiimote looks impressive, but we'll need to see it in more than just a tech demo. If it does what they say it will, and Sony is good about keeping promises, they've got a hit on their hands.

So there you have it. Sony won. Don't like that answer? Then… um… Hanes won. Why Hanes? 109820982098430984 (give or take a couple) t-shirts were given out at E3. They made a killing."

I can just hear all the MS fanboys now.

ultimolu6116d ago

Oh lol, I can hear them now too.

pippoppow6116d ago

Who had the most exclusive titles coming out that you actually need the system to play those games on? PS3. MS had a good show but most of those games can be played on the PC. So lets say someone has a gaming PC and wants to buy a console. Which console has the games that can't be played on their PC? PS3. They showed a bunch of games and didn't even show everything.

One of you wrote this? lol

ChozenWoan6116d ago

Actually half of MS's show was games you can play on the PS3... which is fine by me. The only thing that I TRULY liked about MS's show is that they didn't go into charts. This new trend is something I think all gamers will have to give MS props for when it comes to E3 in the coming years.

I guess after the short-lived Natal buzz. people can now focus on practical devices. Sony's wand actually looks like a true competitor to the wii and its market. Natal? ...Maybe it'll be able to compete for the Eye toy's market share... lawl

LOL
again another article fails to make me belive sony or ms won.

"Let’s look at Microsoft. Clearly, their big announcement is Project Natal. There is practically endless possibility with it. We watched a person drive a car by holding an imaginary wheel. And then they pulled into an imaginary pit stop, and someone replaced the wheels with an imaginary impact wrench. Clearly, there is a lot that can be done, and that is its greatest strength and weakness. Where to begin? In the right hands, Natal will revolutionize gaming. But without a TON of work, Natal stands to become another Eye Toy, a gimmick that is used once, put on a shelf, and quickly forgotten."

"And last, but not least, we have Sony. They have a motion controller too! And it looks like the spawn of a Wii Remote, a glowing microphone, and Project Natal. At first glance, it looks too silly to even hold in your hand, but in practice, this has the most potential. Let’s face it. Waggle isn’t going anywhere. This thing had the same capabilities of MotionPlus, all on the PS3. Is it innovative? No. Is it downright copying Nintendo? Yes. Is it the first time they’ve done this? No. I predict we’ll see HD ports of Wii games, and Sony will profit handsomely."

LOL

where are the games?

ChozenWoan6116d ago

From the research I've done, Sony was wanting to wait until next year when they would have had some games to show with the PSLightstick. However, with MS hearing rumors that Sony was going to show their system this year, they put together one of the greatest Hoaxes this gen will ever see. This practically forced Sony into throwing together the demo that was shown.

Now that the cards are on the table, lets wait and see how each one plays their hand. Hopefully, Hardcore and casual gamers will turn out to be the real winners.

Shnazzyone6115d ago

no more "who won E3" articles. How fricking unoriginal are these game "journalists"? How about writing about the games you were shown... not comparing one publisher to another. I'm not buying the company i'm buying the product.. I want to hear about the products not the company.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5749d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905749d ago (Edited 5749d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5749d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5749d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495749d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5749d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5749d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
