[quote name='Sparta Omni']2) Don't judge a screen shot/video when it's that early in development. Most of it is all tech demos.[/QUOTE]

I don't really follow videos , previews , screenshots or anything for most games , because I'd rather walk into a game fresh with an open mind and not have pre-determined thoughts about the game based on all the previews and junk.
 
[quote name='refusedchaos']MGS4+O would be a waste. there isnt rly a need for one as they can just release it as DLC.


Serious Sam 3 ^_^[/QUOTE]

DLC for the 360? Because that's what MGS4+O is rumored to be for, not PS3. O = Oxide, which is kind of like subsistence is for MGS 3 and Substance for MGS 2.
 
Isn't Alan Wake supposed to have a real showing this E3?

[quote name='manthing']Also: Indigo Prophect is AWFUL.
[/QUOTE]
Fahrenheit was great, though.

no, not for 360....ps3

if MGS4+O does come out, it wont be exclusive, maybe timed exclusive.

Just rumors, no one truly knows.
 
[quote name='gunm']Conviction is supposed to "redefine" the Splinter Cell series, but that teaser looked terrible. I hope it's not some lame RTS.[/QUOTE]
That teaser actually got me excited. I'm really curious about the story. The first footage shown of the game however made me really not want it.

In other news, AC2 :drool:. Goddang I hope I get to play it at E3.

The rumors on the twitter, where they originated from, says that MGSO is exclusive for the 360. I'm sure it will be for the PS3 eventually, unless it's just some port. But I'm sure it's all bull shit regardless.

Guy apparently is playing Alan Wake now... :roll:
 
Gametrailers TV is doing an episode on heavy rain next week. Should be interesting. I think they'd be insane to put out a game that is strictly qte but we'll see.

Eh, I think it should be good. As long as it has a good story/acting it'll be great.
 
I'm hoping we get at least some look at the new Hitman title at E3, haven't read anything about it thus far aside from that it exists.

haha when did twitter become a reliable source...i can go make one now and start saying that im playing the new ps3 slim with full bc.

but it has been confirm already by someone that there is no mgs4+O for 360. someone contacted Konami. They said no to mgs4+o but yes to there being a surprise coming for 360
 
I never said it was a reliable source, thus the eye rolling at the end. The dude is obviously bullshitting, I don't believe any of it. I just heard that's where it originated from.

I love how "someone" contacted konami and this found out, by the way. That does sound a lot more reliable. :p

Didn't one of the many MGS4 is coming to Xbox 360 rumors come about as the result of somebody contacting Konami or at least a contact at Konami to be told it was actually happening?
 
Probably, any idiot these days can say "Oh, I'm an ex employee at Konami!!" or "Oh yeah, my brother works there and they were working on a prototype for it so it's on its way!!!!"
And then, you have bigger idiots believing it and it suddenly become gospel spread throughout the internet.

I don't believe anything until I hear an official announcement from the devs anymore. Seems to be the safest case.

If MGS is truly coming out for 360, or an expansion for PS3, or a new exclusive IP, or whatever it is, if anything, it will be at E3.

So, I guess we just have to sit tight until then. :/

this coming from the guy that's believing a twitter? And who here is spreading it like a gospel? No one here is busting a TMK and writing a paragraph on this

Its not MGS4+O, no matter how much you wanna believe it is.

It was a Konami spokesperson or shareholder, i forget which exactly.

Wow, where the fuck did I say I believed in twitter, and I never said it is for sure coming out...you need to learn to comprehend when you read and stop the accusations.

I was only saying the new MGS4/O rumor originated (as far as I know) from that twitter guy, and he said it was a 360 exclusive, and you said it was for the PS3. That's why I directed you there. I don't believe that idiot, so drop it.

i never said it was going to ps3..i just simply stated that if it was Oxide could be done for ps3 via DLC


Konami's surprise IS for 360...it is just not MGS4+O

Hopefully, I'm sure it will be good whatever it is. It could be that supposed "Tornado Outbreak" that's going to be announced in a few days.
 
[quote name='Moxio']FFXIII looks kinda awful right now, in my opinion. I mean, "Lightning" and "Snow"? God?amn those names could not be any cornier. :^I[/QUOTE]
Cloud and Squall are better names? I'm not saying Lightning and Snow are good, but they're not exactly uncommon for the series.
[quote name='zewone']MAG = new Socom game (new Socom game sucks)
Heavy Rain = new FolkLore (FolkLore sucks)

I liked Folklore...
 
[quote name='DarkNessBear']Man, you've been really friggen bitter lately.

[/QUOTE]

What are you talking about, dude? This is the best I've felt in years. I feel like a million bucks.

Those games did suck as most PS3 exclusives do. Them's the facts (my opinion = fact :bouncy:)
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']Heavy Rain looks too bland for me to care... it's gotta do more than what we know already. If not, it'll be a modern day Dragon Quest.[/QUOTE]
Oh come on, Heavy Rain looks interesting. It looks really different and the presentation looks to be stunning - I for one, am excited about a type of game that has been long forgotten.

I'm not bashing it, it's just that we know too little at this point. I'm all for innovation, but sometimes successful innovation needs good execution. Plus if it's a horror game I'm a wimp so... :cry:

Heavy Rain is the only game motivating me towards the desire to own a PS3, the only system I skipped out on this gen so far.

Haha, don't worry there shouldn't be any "horror" elements. Unless serial killers classify as horror.

You have no faith in the Indigo Prophecy team to do justice? :) I can't lie though, I'm hesitant as well. But, from what I've seen it looks interesting. I guess we'll find out next week (GT's exclusive).
 
The video footage available as of yet gives me the feeling it has the potential to be as mind-blowing and innovative, amazing, surprising at every twist and turn... Just how I felt about Indigo Prophecy and even Dreamfall. I hope people at E3 get to play a real demo and let everyone know how it feels. I have no doubts about it though. :]

Yea, it's on the top of my list of games I want to play when I go. Hopefully it there is a demo.
 
I have a pass and some appointments, but rooming arrangements are falling apart at the seams, I'm trying to have faith. :/
 
Lol, that is exactly why I bought pepperspray for the occasion if I do end up going. I might need it when the booth babes aren't around to distract the gamers with a lack of social etiquette.
 
Heavy Rain is a stupid idea because if they're that concerned with real life story and characters, just make a film already. That studio has ideas that are too amateurish, trite, and half-developed to succeed as direct-to-dvd movies, so they shoehorn them into a poorly made video game, where their shallow and poorly written characters can be praised.

Add in a touch of exclusivity for the most pretentious, pseudo-artistic console owners and you have a recipe for disaster. Nobody would give a shit about Heavy Rain if it wasn't PS3 exclusive. Like every other PS3 exclusive that isn't Uncharted.

Kinda like Metal Gear Solid, but without all the fun parts. There's still no reason to own a PS3.

Empire Total War is awesome. So's STALKER Clear Sky.

Man, you guys sound like bitter old men. Damn.

Indigo Prophecies wasn't PS exclusive and I still enjoyed it...
 
[quote name='jer7583']Nobody would give a shit about Heavy Rain if it wasn't PS3 exclusive.[/QUOTE]

Umm...I would. I was a huge fan of Indigo Prophecy (except for the ending), and Heavy Rain looks even better. If it was multiplatform, I would buy it on 360, so the PS3 exclusivity has nothing to do with my interest in the game.

Valkyria Chronicles would like to disagree.

Folklore fucking sucks. All the space available on a :br: disc and they can't put VO's on it? AND I have to press X to get through cutscenes? PLUS I get to play levels *TWICE* but with different people?

Folklore can go fuck itself. fucking waste of $10.

Thus officially proving your opinions smell worse than fresh dog shit.
 
If you're chuggin' through Quantum of Solace, jer, you ought to change yer user title to "C- or No Play."

Shit was so mediocre it coulda been spread on white toast and the toast would have been the exciting part.
 
I should be putting up a lowball sale in a couple days. It'll depend on how well the DSLite sells in a current lowball auction, but if it odes well, I'll be putting up a sale over the next couple days.

Expect to see a DS Lite (Black), tons of games, some accessories, maybe a PSP and PSP games, along with DVDs, 360 games, PS2 games and more!

I cannot wait for Heavy Rain. Looks gorgeous. Their other games, even though pretty edited and censored, were very interesting to play.

Hey manthing, sell me your Folklore. I prefer reading to a 95% chance of horrible voice acting.
 
Finished Too Human on co-op. I like that I didn't have to sit through any of the story as it cut it all out.
Worth it for $10, other than that, game is just too bland and repetitive.
The loot and cheese whore in me will have me playing a little more though.

Got this in the mail yesterday, and had quite a bit of fun. Better than DS version? I'm still deciding.
