E3 Sony Press Conference Discussion Thread

yeah some LBP levels definitely have that NES side crolling nostalgic feel. others..not so much hehe.
 
[quote name='Thomas96']I think Little big Planet definitely surpassed what we all expected for user created content. LBP is a good example of how user created content needs to be.[/QUOTE]

Agreed - if Sony and the publishing company and navigate the murky waters of copyright infringement. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery until it gets you sued.

Watched a lot of the game footage over at GameTrailers and I'm excited. In practical gaming sense, I believe the Playstation's Motion Controller is more applicable to games that require more manipulation that just a physical body and random object. The two engineers doing the briefing even said something to the affect of "We learned w/ the EyeToy that you need to have a controller to really interact with the virtual space".

I'm still ambivalent to both, though.
 
[quote name='Paco']Honestly it's a toss up. If all that you play is 3rd party games, get a 360. You'll have it cheaper. If you want exclusives, you will get a PS3 though. Plus I like to know that I actually have something that's reliable. Plus if you plan on using a console as a media player, the PS3 beats the 360 senseless.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. You know what. I think I'm going to get the Uncharted Bundle from Dell.com for $357+tax. Seems like a pretty decent deal. The clincher for me here is that I'm going to have pay for Live if I go with the 360 and also.. all my friends are whooping on each other playing SFIV on PSN. Also, even with a deal.. the equivalent of the 160GB, the Elite will probably never be cheaper than $320 so $40 more for more features is a pretty good deal for me. Plus, I'm not much of an FPS guy anyway. :)

The girlfriend is making me finish my term paper first before I jump on the deal. Gotta wait until 6pm tomorrow to bite and order my PS3. Cannot wait. I'm pretty much getting it for free.. because my speeding ticket ($410) got waived by the San Francisco courts. :)
 
[quote name='Paco']Microsoft is pushing boundies by showing 3rd party games, and making more halo? I'd like to see them make some NEW games. Particularly an Age of Empires 4, and their Flight simulator on the 360.[/QUOTE]

Yeah cause that's all they showed...

listen, I'm not trying to start a system vs system flame discussion, as I own both systems.

We look forward to welcoming you into the PS3 family! I'm confident that you'll be happy with your purchase. :applause:

Congrats. I owned both systems too. Infact I owned the 360 before the PS3. But that doesn't change the fact that Microsoft shown mainly 3rd party games. Most of the stuff they announced is also on PC too making it even less magical. But the truth is that Microsoft is trying to sell an expansion for full price, and essentially touting third party games like it's ONLY on their system. That's what gets me.

I dunno, for me, I buy all third party games for Xbox... so the more they can acquire, the better for them... the ability of easy voice chat with friends and the fact more of my friends have an xbox makes it a no-brainer for me.

And just cause they bring "more Halo" isn't a bad thing... everyone fucking loves it. Not me, so much. I'm now strictly a CoD guy... but again, all my friends have that on Xbox.

I like the new Facebook, Last FM, Netflix features. I understand you can just do these things on your PC, but I like the all-in-one aspect if it.

And if the xbox is going to have actual voice recognition? forget it.

Again, I'm not bashing the PS3, I like the machine. but there just aren't many reasons for me to go to it. While I'm always turning on my Xbox for something... just look how big an early success 1 vs. 100 seems already.
 
Not particularly enamored with the motion control and there were no real megatons. However just about everything that was shown was solid. The only down point was the PSP GO price point which only confirms that I will not be buying one this year. 4/5
 
Gran Turismo 5 and God of War III have made me happy. PSP Go! looks cool but I am gonna wait for a price drop or until the UMD drive in my PSP 2000 goes dead.

You do know why Halo is popular right? It was the first console FPS with a good control scheme that was workable. Otherwise it's a mediocre FPS where if it was to be released originally on the PC, it would have died a lonely death without any sequels against the heavy hitters like Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, Tribes and everything else that's superior as a shooter.

The uniform style of Live does make everything consistent and most people like that, but Criterion did say that the PS3 surpasses live on one account that they can make the online service whatever they want rather then conform to microsoft's standards. Though because of this, we have games ranging with great online and interfaces, to games that are so bare bones that it's almost why bother.

Consoles are more where your friends are this gen. You basically get the one where they're playing if you plan on multiplayer games.

Honestly all that integration would be worthless if Microsoft only bundled a browser with the 360. So I don't really see much point in it. I don't really facebook or twitter. Twitter left a bad taste in my mouth after watching Broussard's company go tits up and watching him write "Gonna play Fallout 3."
 
God of War III looked like more of the same but in HD graphics(more than fine by me!), GT5 looks sweet, but not my cup of tea.

Uncharted 2 looks like a great contender for GOTY.
A couple of games that really interested me was Assassins Creed II(never played the 1st game) and the new Splinter Cell game, I don't own a 360 so I hope that if it turns out to be a awesome game that it makes it's way to PS3 eventually.

I am looking forward to seeing actual game play of Dragon Age:Origins and a couple of other 3rd party games.

It's all good, (as long as you're paying your 4 dollars a month Xbox Live Dues ) There's good software on both platforms; The 360 does have an impressive Library. I think that the PS3 Libaray is coming full circle. I have to give MS credit, because when they got a good franchise they keep the games coming (Halo 2, 3, ODST etc.) Sony has a good franchise and you might not see it again for another 7 years. So in that aspect I give them credit. However, sometimes you need a ittle variety, and you just hate to get the same games (or franchises rather) being released.
 
just read that square has announced FF14 coming out for the PC as well, i guess its just a console exclusive. well thats good. id only want to play it on a PC, now i just have to convince the GF to let me play.

for sure. I don't really like Halo, but I hear ya.

i understand the microsoft standards thing and agree... some ps3 games are great online and some are useless. but i think i'd rather have it strict and good all the time, even if i have to pay.

i hate twitter and would never sign up for it, but i do use facebook because i found tons of old friends.

but i do think both systems are good, i just think the xbox really keeps coming up with ways to draw people to it.
 
It was hilarious looking at the expressions on people's faces on the E3 floor when they started showing the Wand. The introduction to it was painful to watch on the big screen.

That actually sounds pretty interesting...

Can't imagine the stares I'd get if I went on the subway and scanned the PSP around with random shouts of "Gotta catchem' all!"
 
Damn, that Agent announcement was a huge tease. As he described it I was thinking this is gonna be cool, and then... on to the next game.
 
I don't own a PS3 but Uncharted 2 looks SOOO good. I have more than enough Amazon credit to pick a PS3 up, but I also just got laid off so I may hold onto that credit for a while.
 
Sad we didn't see more info on all of their MMO's, though most are still aways off.

Cool to see Eyepet should be out this year.

And with the extra details, did yall finally see the lion's tail on that team ico beast too or what?! =P

Halo is mediocre!? While I understand opinions are like assholes and all, thats just about the most ignorant statement I have ever heard on here.
 
i dont know if anyone has brought this up. but was anyone else less than impressed with MAG? maybe it was the presentation, but something seems off with this game.

on the other hand cant wait for gt5, nascar will be an option i assume from the trailer. this makes me wonder is ea lost the license or not.
 
HEre's the order.

Sony
Microsoft
(and that's it)

Honestly, I think both of there shows were great, Nintendo, is living back in time, we've seen the press conference in the past, its the same games... all over again. Sony and MS imo could be considered a tie, however I think Sony edged them out because they really went all out in their PSP showcase.

Regarding EA and their license, they may have owned the license, but it doesn't mean that it was an "exclusive" license. I don't think anyone was expecting another game w/ NASCAR included.

It is mediocre... some badass space ranger fighting little Goombas, times 3. Halo when it first time out set the standard for FPS games, but on a level playing field with other FPS games, it doesn't really stand out like it used to. I think you KNOW that's true. Its popular because its Halo (3), not because its so much greater than the other FPS games that are out now.

I'm sorry. but what the fuck?!?!

Sony and MS aren't making sequels after sequels adding nothing new to the games? That's news to me! :roll:
 
Aside from the 1st one on xbox1 the Halo franchise is absolutely mediocre. When Halo 3 came out gamestop was actually refusing trade ins on it for a little bit because everyone was trading it in.

Half life 2>halo

As for MAG I think watching the game is incredibly boring because you don't get the feeling you would of actually PLAYING with 250 other people.

of course they're making sequels because that's what the fans want, but there's alot a lot of new stuff to go along with those sequels. A lot more new stuff than what Nintendo was offering. Some sequels really bring something new to the table, for instance GT5 - yes its a sequel, but that game has changed tremendously, whereas GT (psp) looks like more of the same from the PS2 GT3. Nintendo, is MOTS with the same old Metroid, same Mario Galaxy, and the same damn "New" Super Mario, the same Wii fit "plus" DC universe is brining an MMO to the PS3 - which is first, MAG is something new. MS had nothing but sequels in their press conference, MGS Rising was pretty much the only thing that they had new. (but that's kinda a sequel too, but imo it's more of a spin off than anything.)

I don't want to critize anyone for making sequels, Sequels are good, but you still have to bring out the new as well.

I also own both systems. Looking at the Microsoft conference, they showed plenty of unique titles such as Halo OSDT, Halo Reach, Crackdown 2, Forza 3, Alan Wake, Shadow Complex, and Joy Ride. Sony showed just as much third party games (FF13, FF14, Metal Gear Solid PSP, Assassin's Creed, Resident Evil PSP, Agent, ModNation Racers, etc). As for touting games as exclusives, I never heard that or got that impression.

My thoughts about the Sony Conference...
Uncharted 2 - first day buy; the demo looked sweet
MAG - not impressed
PSPGo - Nice idea to try to bring more people on board
Gran Turismo 5 - wish I could see gameplay
Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker - would play if I still had my PSP; sold due to lack of games
Agent - what's the purpose of announcing a game with no idea about what the game will feel and look like
Assassin Creed 2 - I like that the game has more dimension to it i.e. the flying, double hidden blades, etc. I look forward to playing this.
FF13/FF14 - the trailers looked real nice
Eye Toy 'ball controller' - sony should scrap this idea before it starts. It looked like it didn't function as well as the wii remote with motion-plus and the natal put it completely to shame.
ModNation Racers - looks like a good idea; I am not a racing fan
Last Guardian - the best game shown at the Sony Conference so excited for it.
God of War 3 - I will end of playing it but I am iffy about it.

In whole, I think Jack Tretton is full of crap. He was so full of himself with claims of God of War 3 can ONLY be capable of PS3 (I have seen titles just a nice on Xbox), the eye toy as the first motion controller (BS), and even trying to create a new genre in Play. Create. Share (2 games don't make a genre). It looks like I will add two to three new titles over the next year to my PS3 as I play multiplatform games on Xbox360 (due to better online play and achievements).

E3 easily goes to Microsoft. Followed by Sony. Nintendo showing was very snorefest.

[/QUOTE]

Every system is making sequels. Microsoft has Halo. Sony has God of War. Nintendo has Mario. Who cares if people are enjoying the games??? Look at the amount of titles Sony showed vs the amount of titles Nintendo showed. Of course, you can have more titles to show of. Nintendo if I recall correctly only showed First Party titles.

No matter how you tried to defend a Gran Turismo... it is just another instance with nicer fresh coat of paint and some new tracks, maybe through on some new online modes... As for MAG, although it is new doesn't means it equals a good game. I thought the graphics were basic, the play looked like a budget FPS title, so really the only thing going for it is 250 people online play. Great in concept but think how long it could take you to get in a game (I know it currently takes some time to get into a game with just 3 people on LittleBigPlanet) and how often would you be playing in a game with that many people.

Wait a minute.. The eye toy ball controller was on stage being used "Live" and you're trying to compare how well it worked with a "Concept" Video. One thing is for certain, the motion controller had pin-point accuracy. I like it better than the Wii mote and nunchuck because they're not wired together. which made it look a nice when he was using the bow and arrow. WHich even as a tech demo looked more fun than Link's crossbow.

Hour of Victory - On Metacritic, the game had an average score of 37 out of 100, based on 33 reviews.[2]


That game wishes it could be called mediocre. Mediocre only means average, standard... its not saying that it is bad, however the word does have a more negative feel to it. Halo raised the bar very high for FPS games, but most FPS games have met that bar and some have exceeded it. Halo 3 hasn't raised the bar that much in terms of story, visuals/graphics, or online since Halo 1. At this point other games have caught up, and in some ways surpassed, thus making Halo 3 (and the entire franchise) mediocre.
 
Does it matter who really top E3? For goodness sake, what matters is what's cool coming up! Sorry, i don't buy Xbox 360 games anymore, i'm a trophy person now :) I rather build up my trophies than achievements. Well, i got my Xbox 360 after the PS3, so i have my reasons. And i don't miss Xbox 360 exclusives much really (I have both Gears and i do liked them, but that's it).

Anyhow, Uncharted 2 rules, GoWIII rocks (biased, since i'm a GoW nut). However, i'm very very intrigued with Eye Pet!! It looked very cool, but the thing is, it can't be the Eye... The resolution of the players looked too good to be something captured from the Eye. I want the fuzzy monkey for sure :)
 
I was impressed with all three conferences. I don't care about the new halo games, but thought that shadow complex look really cool. That was until I saw the new metroid and now I don't care as much, lol.
As for Natal I just kept thinking about the fact that it was kinda creepy to have a little kid as your best friend. I know when it comes out you could probably pick what age and gender you want but that leads to even more creepiness.
Sony showed eyepet which seems to already do some of what natal is promising and with a camera I already own??? GOW3 was not really on my radar til I saw them KILL A MONSTER BY PULLING HIS HORN OFF AND SHOVING IT IN HIS EYE!!!!
So ya, I enjoyed all three and will be watching for these games to come out. including the nintendo stuff. especially the sony stuff since i play that the most lately.

YES I am saying Halo is MEDIOCRE and Halo is something that would have NEVER succeed on the PC landscape as it would be seen for what it is. Generic and with nothing to differentiate it against id, Epic, and anyone else making PC shooters. Honestly, all Halo has got going for it is its control scheme which is great on consoles, but most PC fans agree that Quake, Unreal, and Call of Duty were far superior experiences on the pc. Why do Halo fans get so defensive? PC fans have and continue to get superior shooters to Halo so they don't even care if they get it or not. And anyone who has FPS experience knows this to be true. Halo is genericness REDEFINED. Halo could never touch a REAL shooter like Unreal Tournament.
 
[quote name='Shrapnellistic']@Paco
I really wonder why you are a PS3 centric owner when you're a lost PC elitist playing PS3.[/QUOTE]

My PC runs Unreal Tournament 3 like shit, so I play it on the PS3. Still good since it supports keyboard and mouse. Kinda saddened at the lowered player count to 16 though.

And in all honesty, I'm not as PC militant as I used to be, but I can easily see Halo as generic and dull compared to what the PC gave in its glory days. On the PC, if Halo was released only there, it would die a horrible death in the face of Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament 99. On the consoles, if it wasn't for the great control which perfectly suits consoles, it would also be a flop.

And why do I stick to PS3? My 360 broke, I don't like waggle controls, my PC isn't up to running the newest PC games and I turned my PS3 into a centerpiece with the following.

320gb internal hard drive.
1 TB external for movies
Installed Linux for alternate PC use and old games
Full BC with 31 PSone classics.

So in essence the PS3 does everything. Plus I'm still a fighting fan grueling on Street Fighter 4, King of Fighters which the PC does not offer "at least properly." Though I do enjoy my GGPO.
 
Great press conference, had lots of fun and E3 was great. Shame no CAGS came by for my LBP demo!

Yea - I tried out MAG. It's pretty mediocre, the epic scope does not make up for the knock in graphics. And like I thought, it turned into a cluster F. Felt very much like COD4 though which was nice... MODERN WARFARE 2 should suffice.
 
It's good to be a gamer these days! Lots of good games coming out! Here's to (still) hoping for a price cut on the PS3 & PSP, even though nothing was said at E3 (I need to do some holiday shopping for someone that doesn't have these yet.)
 
[quote name='Snake2715']Dont get uptight about good o thomas 96 (is that the year you were born?), a dedicated Sony fan.[/QUOTE]

That is the year I bought my Playstation. Hell I guess you're right, that is the year I became a Sony Fan. Before that I had NO interest in PSX, I thought it was a gimmick like the Phillips CD-i Before that I was playing SNES, NES, and Genesis. People throw me into the Sony fanboy column, but people don't realize I do enjoy everything. Since I'm older, I don't have time to play across all 3 consoles, so for this gen, I'm sticking w/ PS3. But its not because I don't like MS. (I actually don't like the Wii) But I still play SNES, NES, and Genesis to this day!
 
I thought the content of Sony's press conference was good but Jack Tretton was awful, as usual. Why do they keep that clown? He leads off every press conference the same way, by telling us how nervous he is. He then proceeds to stumble and bumble his way through it. I wouldn't want that from my President and CEO. I think Sony's problems start at the top...
