Can't wait for Microsoft and Sony press conferences.

kaveti66165867d ago (Edited 5867d ago )

I can't wait either. I just finished all my final exams today and am looking forward to a three month break. Can't wait for Little Big Planet 2. I never got the first one but this sequel looks to be much more robust so I will get it.

Microsoft might have something up their sleeves, as will Sony, but at the end of the day I'm not going to wonder who "won" this E3. I already feel good because I got a PS3 as well as a 360 so I'm not missing a damn thing. Single console owners on this site are going to be talking a lot of crap about the other side, especially if there's a game on the console that they don't own that they want.

Edit: Well, I am missing all the great games on the Wii. I feel really crappy about that. :(

Nicholas Cage5867d ago

get it right, me personally im voting for sony.

Anyone can "win" E3.

Nintendo has the 3DS.
Sony has the games.
M$ has Halo and Natal.

That was for fanboys. If your a gamer, then ur automatically a winner.

NMC20075867d ago (Edited 5867d ago )

For fanboys eh? Then why the $ in MS? It's known that Sony fanboys and Microsoft haters use the M$, just saying. :)

niceguywii605866d ago

You thought >M$< gave it away? I seen his hypocrisy when he suggested only Sony will have games to show.

Anon73495866d ago (Edited 5866d ago )

Nintendo has the 3DS, New Zelda, Metroid OM, Pokemon BW, Pikman, ect

M$ has Natal, GearsOfWar3, Fable 3, A surprise?

Sony has Socom 4, Infamous 2, Uncharted 3, FF13v, Killzone 3, LBP2, Agent, The Last Guardian, GT5, few other sequels, some new IPs, Move, 3D

Honestly, it's a pretty well know fact that sony won the E3 already, at least if you're going by games but I wouldn't count out Nintendo because I'm a huge Zelda/Metroid/StarFox/Pikman/P okemon/FireEmblem/ect fan

Hanif-8765867d ago

They can win it by announcing an Xbox360 Slim :-)

presto7175867d ago

Or was it something else?

IdleLeeSiuLung5867d ago

There is no console that is fail proof. This include MS, Sony and even Nintendo. My Jasper has had no problems so far....

Why don't you just get it repaired FOR FREE!!!

halojunkie5867d ago

sony already has my e3 with lnp2. but just think about this...if they are showling lbp2 already...imagine what sony has to show! im thinking ps3 will have a better ballgame.

HighDefinition5867d ago

Sony has to much momentum going into this to lose, I wouldn`t be surprised if they make an announcement of a exclusive game for the PS3 from Bungie. Everything is in place for something like that to happen.

What would be bigger than that?

All I know is it`s gonna take more than a timed/stolen exclusive for MS to make waves this year. Sonys most likely gonna be showing the Move, LBP2, Last Guardian, Infamous2, Agent and a whack load of games that will carry alot of interest and any "Secret" stuff. My point....it`s theirs to lose pending a miracle.

Bigpappy5867d ago

But I doubt Bungie is that pised at M$ to do that to them, plus they don't want to piss off Halo fans right now (Halo Reach is about to be released).

I really think I'd like to see some new hardware not just the move.natal stuff, but actual consoles. Coming out in next holiday...

Shadow Flare5867d ago

well i can believe YOU'RE saying it. Maybe you should try another console

- Ghost of Sparta -5867d ago

I can't blame you, Jolly. Just buy a PS3.

STICKzophrenic5866d ago

I'm definitely not ready for a new wave of consoles.

I'm having too much of a blast with Xbox 360 and PS3 to move on.

THC CELL5867d ago

sony has won little big planet is a big game

If this was announced at e3 then sony would of won

But no sony now has something bigger planned ?

Jack Klugman5867d ago

lol! you forget to add 'in my imaginary land that I create for myself'

deadreckoning6665867d ago (Edited 5867d ago )

I agree with Jack. Like, do you ACTUALLY believe that many people who own PS3s care about LBP OR LBP2 for that matter? Dude, watch the next COD outsell it in like a day. LBP2 looks intriguing for what it is...but how can you say that LBP2 won E3 for Sony?

Sales and polls have shown that the majority of PS3 owners prefer SHOOTERS over ANY other type of genre. If you said KZ3 "won" E3 for Sony, then I'd have a LITTLE more respect for your comment.

OPEN-YOUR-MIND. The majority of gamers who own PS3s likely don't know what Little Big Planet is...much less what E3 is.

"LBP sold very well, has a very alive community still and won countless GOTY awards being a almost non violent game. What more do you want from it?? Yes, people care alot about it. Do people care about COD more? Sure. Does that make LBP2 any less amazing. NO."

I NEVER said LBP didn't sell well, I just said COD would sell more. Furthermore, it could have gotten every single GOTY award out there...this obviously is NOT indicative of the average PS3 owner who STATISTICALLY probably owns at least one COD game.

Ask yourself this..whats more important? The opinions of 50 or 60 critics that get PAID to tell us which game is GOTY or the MILLIONS of gamers like us that choose which game was GOTY with our hard earned cash?

LBP 1 sold 3.4 MILLION copies worldwide and your telling me that because ONLY 50 or 60 critics that played it say its GOTY that it means anythg?! It doesn't make sense!

HighDefinition5867d ago

"I agree with Jack. Like, do you ACTUALLY believe that many people who own PS3s care about LBP OR LBP2 for that matter? Dude, watch the next COD outsell it in like a day."

Uhhh, that`s pretty ignorant.

LBP sold very well, has a very alive community still and won countless GOTY awards being a almost non violent game. What more do you want from it?? Yes, people care alot about it. Do people care about COD more? Sure. Does that make LBP2 any less amazing. NO.

ISKREEM5867d ago

If you can't see that LittleBigPlanet 2 will be a BIG thing for gamers out there then you've got some problems.

Call of Duty didn't get huge over night, you know? CoD2 was lucky to see over 2 million sales. So don't spew that sales crap.

LittleBigPlanet was a fresh new IP when it came out 2 years ago, anyone would say Media Molecule's first entry in the franchise made a huge impact on the gaming community when it was released. The sequel, expanding on everything that game was, in any imaginable way possible is bound for greatest. If you can't see that you're truly naive and ignorant.

biggame9015866d ago

So according to your logic, MW2 was the GOTY right? Since apparently in your mind, sales = greatness. There have been numerous games which greatly dispute your backwards logic. Your logic is ignorant and foolish. LBP franchise is one of the most innovative and creatives franchises this generation has seen, and the sequel will only improve on this?

If you really can't see this, you really are an ignorant fool.

Hideo_Kojima5866d ago

For me E3 09 was won by Sony and one of the main reasons was uncharted 2.

Uncharted 2 was GOTY

In 2008 LBP won GOTY

It is possible that it will do it again.

Therefore it is possible that this potential game of the year would help Sony come out on top just like in 2009 with Uncharted 2.

LBP is awesome I think you should put your guns down and try it.

presto7175867d ago

They say "We give you LBP2 now cuz we have more awesome sh*t saved for E3"

If LBP2 was the best they had, they would have been hiding like Microsoft is doing now.

ISKREEM5867d ago

To be fair, Microsoft haven't been hiding either. They revealed Gears of War 3 not too long ago, which could have easily been saved for E3 if they didn't have anything else in store.

THC CELL5866d ago

hahha lol
to the guy who said that do people really care about little big planet

first of all Yes they do really care i have seen levels on that game that MUST of took a whole year to make

Second
When a level is published a minimal of 10k play it in that day or week
rate and heart, max 100k

play lbp before you knock it

Jack Klugman5867d ago

Easy..

Natal

New IP's

Reach, Fable 3, Gears 3

Possible slim or price cut

and they won it again just like the last couple years.

CernaML5867d ago

Last coupe of years? Showing off a bunch of multiplatform games using celebrities who probably don't give two sh!ts about gaming doesn't look like a win in my book.

LordMarius5867d ago

"and they won it again just like the last couple years"

lol! you forget to add 'in my imaginary land that I create for myself'

Biggest5867d ago

So let me get this right. You, Jack Klugman, are saying that Microsoft will "win" E3 by showing E3 2008/2009, minus the heavy hitters like Alan "The SD Wonder" Wake and Splinter Cell?

Bigpappy5867d ago (Edited 5867d ago )

It was the most hyped and still is a year later. FF13 was not even close. Can NAtal win for M$ again? Now that question is the biggest question for E3, in my humble opinion. Natal will either win E3 for M$ or send them in a deep failing spiral from which they may never recover. I think M$ has somethings for Natal that may still not win some of the hard core, but that they believe will bring people to the 360 in droves. But, what if they bet wrong?

Jack Klugman5866d ago (Edited 5866d ago )

Come on now you sneaky ps boys... you trying to fake history again?

You know the 2 biggest announces from e3 the last 2 years has been the FF 360 and like BigPappy said Natal.

Kaboom type of of buzz bombs!

And ms is going even harder this year.. they said they are treating it(natal)like a console launch so expect big things

Redrum0595866d ago

Timed excusives, celebs, and timed dlc doesn't win enything. If it does to u then your standards pithetically low.

"ever wander what bottom of a shoe of your avatar looks like? BAM!!! There it is" lol srry dude, denial much???

I didn't know E3 was a competition...

JOLLY15867d ago

fanboys think everything is a competition. It's embarrassing to the industry.

Blaze9295867d ago

please, this whole industry is a competition. has nothing to do with fanboys creating that.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde42d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy42d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12542d ago (Edited 42d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

Pixels in the Blood: The Journey of Rob Hewson

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
