GameTrailers Bonus Round: Sony @ E3 2010

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.

They didn't talk about anything worth listening. It's like they don't even have a clue.

TOO PAWNED5085d ago

Same old story. Bring in guys that are not interested in PS3. Except that GI guy he seemed to know something. Go back and watch from previous years BR, same, no excitment for Sony, but when it comes to MS, everyone goes nuts! On top of all out of 13 min of what was supposed to be Sony episode they spoke at least 4 minutes about Natal and 3DS.
Best part is when Gerstman said Sony wont have anything surprising, only sequels, hahaha Sony in last 3 years had so many new IPs, why would it be different this year? Very ignorant from him.
The thing Sony will once again deliver more exclusve content then MS, but those same people will be talking only about MS or mostly. Its so pathetic.

@TOO PAWNED Same old story. Bring in guys that are not interested in PS3. MTV Networks’ GameTrailers.com will provide live, high-definition video streams on the Internet of both the Xbox 360 Media Briefing and The World Premiere of “Project Natal” for Xbox 360 , Thats why.

Tilian5085d ago (Edited 5085d ago )

It must take real conscious effort (like Gerstman) to so easily brush Sony aside. Could he be any more dismissive? After all this time I still don't get why so many media people refuse to properly acknowledge Sony.

HolyOrangeCows5085d ago

Bonus Round = ZZZzzzZZZzzzZZZ
EpicBattleCry/AVGN = Win

he tried and geoff is not a 360 or ps3 fanboy but the three other didn't care about the ps3. it happens all the time because the little circle that they are in is majority 360 fanboys that will say fanboys are stupid then say a bias ps3 statement and when you call them out its all i play my ps3 all the time but my 360 more

jack_burt0n5085d ago

not one mention of agent........ gametrailers is worthless.

Hallmark Moment5085d ago (Edited 5085d ago )

I don't know why you're upset this is the general consensus by most major developers, consumers are very exited to have Minority Report Tech in their living rooms. Soccer moms and kids will love to play their fitness games etc without peripherals is the developer so chooses not to add a Natal peripheral.

Dam if you are offended by this I suggest you only view PS3 only coverage of the show through PSN LOL.

@#6

Sony doesn't have a choice.

On topic
-No one is bashing Sony or against the PS3.
-No one is being payed by Microsoft and are 360 fanboys
-The Bonus round isn't suddenly crap because folks are excited about the 360 offerings.

People are simply more excited about Natal more than anything else, just because fanboys where making anti 360/Natal noise on forums sense last E3 doesn't mean people magically lost interest when they deemed it the most interest thing they have ever seen a year before. Natal has already won some greatest tech award of the decade.

trounbyfire5085d ago

1.Well when you spend the whole time taking a crap and down playing the PS3 and the games on PS3 its called bashing.

2.we never said that they were being paid that's just a saying but everyone knows that the little group of people that live in California the G4tv,shacknews,gametrailers, the 1up and i could go on,they have mostly 360 fanboys in the circle and those are the people on BR talking about Sony.

3.You don't get the point it was sony video and a large part was not even about sony. and know one care about natal why, because they all know that it super casual but why you don't see anything for a year i guess people start to wonder.

you act like them. we are not fanboys but the 360 is better. shut the hell up and stop thinking you are better than the rest. we play the same games you do

Chubear5085d ago (Edited 5085d ago )

One thing that got me thinking though is how some of the media sound so glum about the PSP. You'd think the thing isn't selling at all and has only sold 500k in all these years.

The PSP is 60mill sold but the general feel you get from the media is that it is somehow a failure. No other portable outside of Nintendo has managed to dream of selling 1/10th the numbers the PSP has... but it's gloom and doom for Sony? why, cause one version of the PSP isn't selling as well as the other 3 versions at it's price point right now? aren't they all the PSP?

ZombieAutopsy5085d ago

Shhh, dont bring that logic in here.

I do feel though they need a PSP2, the PSP was a success and Sony to continue with the handheld market...or SEGA should make a handheld console again.

Megaton5085d ago (Edited 5085d ago )

Bonus Round and Invisible Walls are terrible. The best original shows at GT aren't even made there, like EpicBattleCry.

Looking at GT's E3 coverage page, either Sony's show is only 1 hour long, or they're gonna cut it early to broadcast Microsoft's Natal event.

Aquanox5085d ago

Thing is, Sony has been overshadowed by Microsoft in the past 2 E3 and they didn't seem to change their formula. Showing their exclusives is good but it wont give them the hype they need to conquer sales. Wheter you like it or not, Microsoft has proven to know better how to have a heavy hitting conference.

boodybandit5085d ago (Edited 5085d ago )

Really?
Please explain how.
Milo (The Wizard of Oz edition) and Dodge Ball with Natal?
Some famous people on stage that don't play video games promoting and hyping games (most of which were multiplatform titles), gizmo's and gadgets. <- This excites you?

Do you actually play video games or do you play hype and smoke and mirrors? Honest question.

Sorry but Sony might lack that disco balls, strobe lights, glam, glitter, confetti and famous brigade on parade that MS puts on "but" they do what gamers expect them to do, announce games!

DeZv35085d ago

Aquanox still as delusional as he was back in 2006.

Do you still work for MS Aqua?

i'd rather watch the HHG show...

ForROME5085d ago

Thats got to be the worst comment Ive ever read...

TOO PAWNED5085d ago

Sadly somehow it isnt.....

Silly gameAr5085d ago

But, a true comment none the less.

BattleAxe5085d ago

At least HHG makes things more exciting.

-MD-5085d ago

If by exciting you mean nauseating then I agree.

Vino5085d ago

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.

silkrevolver5085d ago

The conferences are the highlights of E3! After they are over, the rest of E3 is usually pretty pointless (unless you are there, of course.)

Vino5085d ago

I know that but it doesn't feel the same ever since E3 got smaller. I'll give each conference a chance but I'm hoping they'll be good.

BBAM5085d ago

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.

crapgamer5085d ago

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...

BattleAxe5085d ago

I just want to know if MS is going to announce a fix for RRoD at E3.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos4h ago

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

Tacoboto3h ago

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?

banger883h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis20h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast18h ago

It's worth a play through today.
