E3 07: Expectations are running high

The glitzy E3 of years past may already be etched into history books, but this month's event will still bring all the surprises and announcements that gamers have come to expect from the industry's crown jewel of trade shows.

TriggerHappy6932d ago

Running wayyy too high. I hope is not setting people up for disappointment.

The Real Joker6932d ago

I am expecting the PS4 and the next xbox so yeah I probably will be let down. Sucks for me.

Sony should've never announced Killzone was real-time, or even announce Killzone...that set the bar so amazingly high that it HAS to deliver or else no one will believe Sony. Then after the presentation, people would think "wow Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted look great but...damn that Killzone should have looked like the trailer!" If it does in fact look like the trailer, which about what 5% of people think if that...that would be incredible but eh...i wish i can take a time machine to next week to see what happens.

@Crotin

Think of it this way. The game is probably better for it.
Showing it off at E3 2005 put massive pressure on the development team. They know awesome just isn't good enough. Hopefully we will all be amazed at this E3.

People are expecting to see lasers shoot out of the cell chip at open a time rift where neo-nazi space ninjas jump out and do combat with robot kittens.

To your questions concerning the E3 '07, and more specifically the impact of the Great Kitten Rebellion of 3289:

1: Neo means new and since there already is neo-nazis they can't be new if they are way into the future. Maybe neo-neo-nazi would work.
- Pfft we all know these Nazis are from 1944, but went to the future using witchcraft. So they are commonly known as neo-Nazis.

2: I hope these ninjas have some kind of breathing apparatus because apparently they are from space.
-No need to oxygen or pressure when your made 95% of old newspapers.

3: I not going with the whole robot kitten thing. I mean would'nt they choose a dog to model after or even a large cat of some sort. But kittens? They are cuddly and cute.
-A deadly mistake to make. Kittens are known to be one of the deadliest beasts within our known universe. RoboKitten v.2.334 is a very dangerous model. Equipped with dual venomous exploding dart launchers, one must keep a very close eye on them. Only carnivourous howling tree stumps can be considered more dangerous, and we all know why.

4. Why would these two factions be at war anyway. What was the cause of the great war for them to do battle?
-Clearly you haven't been keeping up with your current events! Space-nazis had a secret deal with the Jehovah's witnesses to betray the Kittens. We all remember how that turned out.

5. If the cell starts shooting lasers I really would look at the ring of death issue with the 360 and think that it is not a big deal compared to shooting lasers.
-Yeah opening time rifts and endangering existence as we know it. Pretty irresponsible Mr. Ken Kutarari! Sony build quality is sh1t! My PS3 keeps shooting lasers and causing things to catch fire.

Jeez mushrooms make you think funny. Even the day afterwards...nowhere does any of that sh1t make sense...

So you are assuming that some time in the future we will have neo-nazi space ninjas and robot kittens?

1: Neo means new and since there already is neo-nazis they can't be new if they are way into the future. Maybe neo-neo-nazi would work.

2: I hope these ninjas have some kind of breathing apparatus because apparently they are from space.

3: I not going with the whole robot kitten thing. I mean would'nt they choose a dog to model after or even a large cat of some sort. But kittens? They are cuddly and cute.

EDIT
Thanks for the explanation. That was great.

I want to see lasers shoot out of the cell chip at open a time rift where neo-nazi space ninjas jump out and do combat with robot kittens. And I will be very disappointed with Atari if they don't.

neogeo6932d ago (Edited 6932d ago )

everyone seems happy to hear about the games they already know.
I'm looking forward to some new games.

Asuka6932d ago

this years E3 is going to be great! Can't wait to see all the games!!

DrPirate6932d ago

It'll be great for all three of the new consoles. It has good reason to be labeled: Best E3 of all time.

HeartlesskizZ6932d ago

all i want to see is some good cgi or gameplay from Gears and MGS4 and im a happy gamer

DrPirate6932d ago

Good gameplay from Gears? Gears is already out :S. Is there something I'm missing?

Epic confirmed there will be no Gears 2 at this E3 :(

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle56d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg62d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree62d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai62d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
