Anarki4376d ago

Why does sony hate the UK and always have its conference at 2am! Bad times, guess I'll be having a late night

mushroomwig4376d ago

Blaming Sony for time zones now? :P

RedDead4376d ago

It's either us or Japan. Who do you think Sony would pick?

sprinterboy4376d ago

SolidStoner4376d ago

Besides G4 where else can you watch E3?

Karum4375d ago

Sony will broadcast their press conference on the blog and in PS Home like last year.

Pretty sure MS streamed their own conference on xbox.com last year.

As for the rest I'm sure IGN will have a little studio set up on the floor with a whole bunch of stuff too.

apollo064376d ago

I cannot wait!!!! I own all the system and love this time of year.

MariaHelFutura4376d ago

Same here. When you own all the systems going into events like this, you realize how great it is to not be absorbed by all the bullsh!t and to just enjoy gaming.

LOGICWINS4376d ago

I only own one system, the PS3, by choice...and I'm enjoying plenty of gaming :)

Outside_ofthe_Box4376d ago

@Logicwins

I recall you saying you own a 360 and a PS3 before...

blumatt4375d ago (Edited 4375d ago )

Perhaps he sold it. lol I used to have one as well. I liked it okay, but I sold it due to not enough exclusives to make it worth keeping. Every game I wanted I could get on the PS3, so there was no point in keeping it. Now, we're about to get slammed yet again on the PS3 with exclusives. Sony Smash Bros, God of War Ascension, and the unannounced exclusive.

I sure hope the PS4 is shown and comes out next Christmas (2013) at $399 launch price. It would be awesome if the PS4 actually came out a year ahead of the competition (X) this time.

solidjun54376d ago

@outside
i wouldn't be surprised if he did say that.

waltyftm4376d ago

He only owns an Atari Lynx, he just comments because he likes to be in with the crowd.

solidjun54375d ago

lol.
if that's true, he's a confirmed troll.

Kingdom Come4376d ago

Same here, which is one of the things that makes E3 so wonderful.

ssb31734376d ago (Edited 4376d ago )

Okay I'm really confused here. Some sites are saying that E3 is June 4-6 and others are saying it's June 5-7. Which is it? -__-

Hatiko4376d ago

5-7.
The show actually starts on the 5th and the floor is open and all the booths are there. The conferences are all pre-e3. The show starts after the nintendo conference (weather it is right after or a few hours after I do not know).

PshycoNinja4376d ago

Show floor opens at 12 on the 5th so Nintendos Conferance ends almost an hour before E3 show floor opens.

Nutsack4376d ago

MS, Nin conferences are nice at the start of the evening (Europe), Sony 03.00 in the middle of the night....

TekoIie4376d ago

It's real awkward. I guess I'll have to wait till later that day for Sony :(

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

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.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

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."

CrimsonWing697h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker7h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing696h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

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.

Profchaos12h 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

Tacoboto12h 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?

banger8811h ago

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

ChasterMies1h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
