Wonderbook is nominated for Best Hardware/Peripheral?

Pfffhahahahahaha.

lol it did not won it was nominated.

[Krimmson]

Yeah, I saw that I wrote that by accident and edited it almost immediately after I posted it originally.

i think the Wonderbook can be a really great device for the right audience, it was just horribly presented during Sony's conference...Plus you add JK Rowling and there is big money making potential if handled and advertised right

[dragonyght]

good choice, e3 overall was pretty disappointing

[Convas]

LOL, no Watch Dogs? The hell?

Also good to see Halo 4 getting some much deserved credit. 343i's doing a great job with it.

@Omni: Ahh, I see your point. But let's be real, we judge games by trailers ALL the time man, it's not like it's anything new.

[OmniSlashPT]

WatchDogs was not playable. How do you judge a game by a trailer?

[reznik_zerosum]

yea morons do that

[supraking951]

its pretty obvious Watch Dogs was running on high end PC and Ubisoft gave vague details about it. Everyone knows thats not what the 360 and PS3 version will look like. Seems its done its job and fooled you, but people are smarter than that now and didnt give it the nominations people think it deserved.
Look at Beyond, it looked amazing, even more amazing than Watch Dogs in terms of character faces. Behind the scenes E3 press were able to see the game in action, got to play a demo. Watch Dogs had nothing

[Darth Stewie]

How is a DLC nominated for best RPG.

To be fair about wonderbook it actually is good tech, just like previous pseye games/screensaver.

Eyepet, eyedentify, interactive fishtank screensaver, eye of judgment, etc

people slammed these motion games/mini games but loved kinect/natal before it even had any actual games to show it was just a "vision" video.

With wonderbook as boring as i thought it was, at one point I asked myself, "why is this woman on stage in a robe?", turned out wonderbook put the robe on her on screen. for kids and maybe some adult games, this is excellent tech.

It's also like the everquest avatar tech that now can mimic your facial expressions in the mmo.
