Why so many controllers and a dozen headsets?
The poor wife.
I think we'll see Halo Wars at E3, but Halo 4? I think Halo: Chronicles is far more likely - maybe that's what Gearbox has been helping WETA with?
"But, hey; what do I know. I'm the same guy who thought the Wii would be the end of Nintendo back in 2005. Look how that turned out."
Why I understand the author's sentiments, nobody knows what MS are cooking (Including Shane Kim apparently! lol), we don't even know if it's a Wii mote copycat or something more advanced or different.
Now that's gold! Pure gold!
1) Halo Wars and Alan Wake are still on this year's table.
2) Other exclusives have yet to be announced.
3) Scene It? 2 & Ninja Blade will be announced at a later date.
4) Accessories and casual gamers are a major part of this year's focus.
5) Price cuts are imminent.
Guess we'll have to wait for E3!
@PoG
I sometimes find you difficult to agree with, largely for your dirty work in the open zone, but your statement "360 will have a great diverse lineup that caters to all not just the hardcore" I can happily agree with. It's refreshing to see a Microsoft lineup not dominated by FPS.
@marionz
Well said. Both consoles have great lineups this year, but obviously people will be biased to their console of choice and personal gaming preferences. <...
"He just has to trash the other two console holder doesn't he?"
Did you watch the video? He doesn't diss either console he simply pushes the PR for the 360... which surprise, surprise is his job! lol
I hope July because there's too many great games to distract me in June!
I hope Co-op is part of the demo and they build some interest in the story. I don't know if there's been a more important demo on Xbox Live?
A decade in development game finally sees the light of day... this has to do more than show the masses what it's about, it has to get people attached and excited. God I hope it's good!
And a great title to boot! Kudos to all the guys in Balmain. :)
Don't forget Lost Odyssey which is a top quality JRPG along with Universe at War, Culdecpt Saga and Kingdom Under Fire (meh!) that were released earlier this year.
As for the horizon.
Well the 360 exclusives I'll most likely buy:
Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Banjo Kazooie 3, Viva Pinata 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Too Human, Left 4 Dead, APB, Age of Conan, Champions Online, Cry On, Infinite Undiscovery, Elveon, Dead Island, Huxley, Halo War...
I feel for you vasilisk. All the other articles have got some serious heat and yet none compare to this extensive interview which are often derived from this in the first place!
Don't forget Mistwalkers second 360 exclusive - Cry On.
And as for Infinite Undiscovery going multi, about as much chance of that happening as FF going to the 360.
With all the panic and jumps to conclusions being made it's nice to see a more rational opinion.
This, along with the very excited previews and updates from all the major gaming sites, tells me that this is something to watch and quite possibly a full blown evolution of the platforming genre.
Looks awesome. The Source engine looks much improved but what really gets me is the intense and fast paced multiplayer. It looks like crazy fun.
I can't wait for all the "shenanigans". This game looks incredible.
That was awesome! bubbles for both. :)
This game looks fantastic. The art design is stunning. :)
I'm loving the premise of this game the more I learn.
And unlike many I'm glad that Rare's evolving the platformer. If developers didn't do that we never would of had Mario Galaxy and Mario64, so kudos for Rare. :)
I'd add:
Sandbox platforming
User generated content - offline and online
Rare's humour
Rare's art design
And most importantly, it's not just another sequel and/or platformer.
Looks amazing.
They creamed themselves over Banjo Kazzoie 3 and looked genuinely excited. IGN putting Banjo in front of Gears is a big call and gives me more reasons to watch Banjo until we know what the journalists are getting all hyped about... sounds like this game will need a demo to convince the naysaying masses. lol
