E3 2010 is almost here! In this episode of the Bonus Round, we’re back in our LA studio talking about the biggest convention in gaming and what to expect from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. Will Sony introduce a brand new PSP and attempt to enter 3-D gaming? What about Microsoft’s Project Natal – will it be a part of a new Xbox 360 slim redesign? Will Nintendo’s mysterious game-changing 3DS steal the show? All that, plus our experts weigh in on this year’s biggest upcoming games and rumors.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
They didn't talk about anything worth listening. It's like they don't even have a clue.
i'd rather watch the HHG show...
Why even bother listening to any of the conferences, I only wait until their over and watch the trailers. Once E3 was downsized it lost it's flair.
guess I'm alone xD
E3 has gone back to how it used to be now, I agree it was terrible those 2 years it went small.
It's good to hear that natal has lots of software ready for launch. Just hope Microsoft show the full extent of what Natal can do, according to patcher they're at the point where Natal can read your finger movements. Great stuff.
I also agree about the PSP being a portable console problem, I was playing GoW on psp wondering why I didn't just play it on my TV. Games like pixel junk monsters are great for the psp, shame its rather expensive.
Also hope there is support for 3D gaming and hope developers manage to pull it off decent, because if it fails then the future of 3D gaming won't look too good.
Microsoft has everyone wanting to know what's up as far as pricing, bundles with a slim 360 and price points and games etc... I think even the Sony people will want to see what Natal is all about, then they will quickly bash it, no matter how awesome it is...
