[bizzy12]

[X]

How clever, a game where the environment changes with the camera view.

[kewlkat007]

[nobizlikesnowbiz]

LMAO JACK TRETTON JUST SAID THAT IT WOULD BE A RARE MOMENT YOUR AWAY FROM YOUR PS3.

HE KNOWS JACK

edit nvm that wasnt jack my bust

[Captain Tuttle]

Looks boring IMHO.

[co_ray]

but the conference has been boooorrrriiiiinnnnngggg so far...haven't really talked about ps3 games yet(except ps network)

[Captain Tuttle]

maybe that's it. I'm underwhelmed so far.

Why are they showing Motorstorm??

[SF49er408]

Every confrence has been dissapointing. Cchewbaca how stupid. the home commentary, lmao im cooking some burgers wow... hey some hot ladies i left the door over so they can come it. haha. pretty boring. all 3 have been a waste of time. home looks good, still waiting for the big stuff like ps3 info.......... killzone.......... now plz

[goonerfied]

......

[nobizlikesnowbiz]

HAHAHAHA that dude sucks at Motorstorm sooo bad.

<EDIT>: Haze was eh...

[360Sheep]

uh dude, what are you talking about, that guy is phil harrison, stop your bleating sheep,

[TheMART-sucksdick]

.

[gapzi11a]

Did they have to make the Home avatar walk so funny? And watching the goofy avatars dancing in that house is hilarious! I'm sorry, but it reminds me too much of a scary place called Second Life, though it offers some cool possibilities I guess.

[nice_cuppa]

lmfao.

oh and man date or home i suppose is the gayest thing i have ever seen.
elton john saw it and had to go have a crying game shower.

[co_ray]

at least they did live demos.....NCSOFT EXCLUSIVE TO PS3...so maybe its getting interesting

Haze is exclusive...but it sounds like its only Timed... he said "only on PS3 this holiday" so hmm, guess will find out

[nice_cuppa]

not a big deal.

[goonerfied]

i gota go to the gym keep me posted guys.

[Captain Tuttle]

People aren't too excited...weak applause.

Edit below:
He implied timed exclusive...we'll have to see. Good news though. Same with UT3.

[TheMART-sucksdick]

Ps3 exclusive, its official!!!!

[omfg_111]

my name is HAZE and i am ps3 exlusive!

[360Sheep]

ah man i got excited for a sec, ut3 is a timed exclusive

[nobizlikesnowbiz]

WTF?! UT3 exclusive?

Lame, they're showing same vids from M$ conference.

LMAO. It's pretty funny when he starts clapping, and no one else joins in. I laughed quite a bit.

IS HIDEO KOJIMA WEARING A GEARS OF WAR TEESHIRT UNDER THAT JACKET????!?!?!?!?!?!?

SIMULTANEOUS WORLDWIDE RELEASE? MULTIPLAT?

[NewScratch]

ps3 exclusive!

[co_ray]

i think its only timed tho, because it was confirmed for Xbox 360...maybe 360 will be out 6 months later or something

[NewScratch]

@co_ray

didnt know that. november 2007 for ps3 though, awesome...

[hellomrhieu]

He said exclusive for "this year."

[Bill Gates]

I don't even care how boring the SONY press confrence turns out to be.
All I know is that XBOTS have been PAWNED by Killzone 2.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHHAHAHHAHAA.. ...HA!

[actionjackson]

Nice exclusives. MGS EXCLUSIVE!

[FullyLoaded420]

Get out your purses Sony cheerleaders...TIME to PAY for some ONLINE!!! Monthly this time...Enjoy your FREE for now...

[supnub5]

Haze and UT3 exclusives finally

[gapzi11a]

but better than nothing for Sony. Good news for PS3 owners as you'll be playing it first.

[predator]

after crimbo just foundout

[SF49er408]

gta4 and halo and madden r gonna take all the sales. it will come like january/february same with haze. they already said over 50 percent of the dev team likes the 360 version more.

[kingjkv]

OHHH man i'm missing everything. I can't get it to connect on Gamespot.com.

[co_ray]

RE5 is going to kick ass for 360/PS3?..it looks awesome...and i think haze and Ue3(or maybe just UE3) are timed..wasn't UE3 confirmed for 360?...but RE5 sure looks awesome

[Azures]

Haze and UT3 are now PS3 EXCLUSIVE! HAHAHAHAHAHA

[X]

Was it just me, or was there stuff that wasn't in last nights trailer?

[Marriot VP]

UT3 seems to be timed exclusive because he said "UT3 will be exclusive on the PS3.........this year"

[hikikimori]

My streaming video keeps playing a hundred miles an hour. :(
Anyone know wtf id going on here? ITs like its stuck on fast forward.

[TheMART-sucksdick]

Its still ps3 exclusive hahahahahahahaha .

[fenderputty]

and it's hideo's last series. WOW oooo WOW.

[predator]

i think ubi and epic are looking after there back, they wont get the sales they wont on 360 wen halo 3 hits the shelves

[SF49er408]

nice

[Shalashaska]

Go to Eurogamer. It's got Live report. It's very good. At the moment, Hideo Kojima is speaking.

[SF49er408]

this trailer is pretty gizzay, looks good though

[SimmoUK]

MGS4 Trailer being shown re confirmed PS3 exclusive and Kojima is up there on stage!

[Marriot VP]

MGS4 trailer looks good but still the exact same as last years, and is pretty anticlimactic.

And why is it that Japanese games have blond, tall, and white heros?

[SimmoUK]

raiden's back kicking ass as well its like this trailer is going to go on forever :)

[fenderputty]

Hell yeah

[X]

Vamp VS Raiden was crazy. I'll be downloading the trailer asap.

[zerolinkgannon]

That was a bad ass fight w/Raiden and Vamp. Wow....just wow

[Captain Tuttle]

Knock it off with the Home gimmick. It's stupid.

Edit: What I meant was the little in between segments they're using...not Home itself (although I think it's boring).

[funkysolo]

I guess the exclusives will start coming. Ratchet and clank look awsome

[SimmoUK]

Home is looking much better the developers have started doing there own spaces, i wasn't expecting that, i like the new area as well, back to the videos :)

LBP is up now very good as per usual...

[etownone]

i'm jealous. call me an xbot or whatever, but M$ was boring compared to sony's presentation. Haze and Unreal timed exclusives....dammit!!! i was waiting for UR3, and so many other exclusives.....dammit, and they all look good

i dont blame anyone watching E3 to want to go ot and get a PS3 instead of 360.

i gotta stick with 360 for a little longer, but i'm really very much considering getting as PS3 now.

[chitown]

u guys is UT3 really a ps3 exclusive or timed or not at all? tell me this is good news for sony if true
EDIT thanks cerula

[Marriot VP]

UT3 was said by the guy to be exclusive "for this year"

but you can interpret that 2 ways

[etownone]

timed.... being it was the cover story game for official xbox magazine, and developers were quoted talking about it for 360 and how it was coming along.

they also said they weren't afraid of releasing around same time as halo..... well i guess they are

[supnub5]

From SuckerPunch is awesome

[fenderputty]

That did look really good too. I'm diggin' this presentation.

The extended Killzone trailer was freaking amazing. OMG OMG OMG

[Salvadore]

Where can I download their Pressconference, I missed alot of things.

P.S Much more intresting pressconference than MS.

[Keyser]

OMG, Gran Turismo is the truth!!!

[SimmoUK]

OMG they just showed GT5! just fell asleep and woke up in heaven!!!

New Killzone 2 gameplay! Wow!! gameplay owns!

let this all be in HD!

[Keyser]

You know what's better than KZ2? I don't.

[NewScratch]

-GAME OVER-

[Keyser]

Dang, I lost a bubble without saying anything negative. This bubble system is amazing...

[kingjkv]

Yeah, how does this bubble system work??

[tethered]

Crap! KZ2!
It's beautiful!

[Salvadore]

"Everything you are about to see is realtime"

Seems like they are not taking any chances with the whole pre-rendered stuff. Btw, this in-game clip really looks great.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

They just OWNED the 360!

[ThaGeNeCySt]

Sony putting xbots (such as myself) in hush mode right now lol

[etownone]

another xbot in hush mode....

[FullyLoaded420]

or does the enemies in KZ2 seem dumb?? I already can see the DUMB AI in the game.

Also, what up with the "CRACKDOWN" wannabe?

[Keyser]

it's ALPHA!!!!!

(Exclamation points inserted for flare)

[NewScratch]

is how you plan and craft and put together a presentation. so smooth. no dumb crap. a few surprises. a few things that solidified previous knowledge. some new stuff.

overall its a nice extension of the brand. hell, they even gave a time to ps2 and didnt once make a negative comment about a competitor.

nice job sony. thank you for making me feel even more secure in my investment.

EDIT: How'd I lose a bubble?

time to play some more THE BIGS until the demos and games hit. ow!

[FFVIIFan]

my 360, but Sony stole the show hands down. Slim PSP is true, Haze is confirmed exclusive, UT3 timed exclusive (with user created mods), that Infamous game looked damned sweet, new details on Home, Ratchet and Clank details, MGS4!!!!!!!!!! trailer (more story teasers, god I cant wait to play the game), Uncharted, and no one can say Killzone wasn't impressive(graphically at least). Lair and Heavenly Sword, I mean jeez. Sony stole the show. Adam from G4 said it best. You got a sense of next year with Sony, a sense of growth. MS focused on this holiday season, no NEW anouncements. Sony came with surprises.

[supnub5]

tell me what was name of that game from SuckerPunch? i think i missed it.

[Keyser]

"Infamous" my friend.

[BoneMagnus]

It looks like a serious, darker version of Crackdown - on steroids...I mean that in the best possible way - the game looks fantastic!

[BoneMagnus]

I want a PS3 NOW!!!!

To truly enjoy the all the best games each generation has to offer, you must own multiple consoles. Its as simple as that.

[the greatest]

come 2 the dark side

[xionpunk]

Bland at first, but sony kicked it into high gear halfway through. Awesome stuff. Me likey

[kewlkat007]

The fact is E3, is not what it used to be. E3 used to be like the Oscars. Now it's more serious and Business-like. I will miss the Both hotties dress with less..hehe

On the Sony Press So far...

1. NEW PSP - I might upgrade.(we'll see)
2. HOME - "Errhh I don't care much for, well never have"
3. BD player - "Has helped Sony with the Format war"
4. HAZE- "Exclusive this Holiday" - Halo Effect
5. UT3 - "Exclusive this Holiday" - Can you blame EPIC, money money money.
6. MGS4 - "Always been Exclusive" - Trenton Stresses
7. FOLKLORE - "Nothing new here" - I thought this was out in JP.
8. HEAVENLY SWORD - "Not much new here, we have seen so much on N4G.
9. NBA 08 - "1080p 60FPS"- This is trash, LIVE and NBA2K have that Market.
10. LBP - "Looks kewl" What more can I say?
11. DRAKE - "Nothing new" - A next-Gen tomb raider.
12. SUCKER PUNCH - "2008" - Looks like a Sleeper. More info needed.
13. KILLZONE 2 - "Look impressive" just like MS, a FPS ends the show. 2008?

A. So these are the real highlights, besides a few games that are being developed for the Xbox 360 console, like COD4, Burnout...etc E3, did not feel like the E3 of the old. Like they say, it felt like a Business Meeting.

B. A couple of games looked great, and a lot we all knew was coming. Sony did show like 2+ 2008 games, and where was FF13?(unless I missed it) So What are the big guns coming out this Fall/Winter for Sony?

C. Wouldn't be Ironic the games that have gotten the most Press and flamed Cover for the PS3, all being FPS's. HAZE, UNREAL TOURNY 3, KILLZONE, Man who would of thought. I don't wanna see PS3 fans hate on the 360 for having much FPS's anymore, cause it would be just hypocrisy. I see you guys are taking a liking FPS's. Anyhow Kudos to Sony, a much better showing then last year for sure.

D. I know we will see "oh it was awesome, superduper, and spectacular" comments from Sony fans but they have been waiting for a while. When I get a PS3, all the wrinkles will be ironed out, and will get my price for sure, but for now, I wait myself. I'll be busy with the 360 anyhow.

Ok I'm working Overtime...Working for that 1080P Samsung 40 incher.

[ThaGeNeCySt]

Agree with every statement you made... E3 definately didnt have the SUPER BUZZ factor i remember with megaton announcements... but i'm definately glad sony came and showed out... they needed it... heck i needed it... the final moments of their press conference felt like they grabbed me by my collar and said "look here, this is why youre going to get a PS3, no if's and's or but's about it" and so I'm stoked for PS3 in 2008 (only because my 2007 will be too filled with 360 blockbusters like bioshock, mass effect, assassin's creed, COD4, Halo 3, splinter cell conviction, Lost Oddysey, Blue Dragon, Ace Combat 6 - WOW)

I hope MS shows an impressive lineup for 08 (i already know about Too Human, Mass Effect, RE5, & DMC4)

MGS4 = GREATNESS (VAMP = GOAT)

[360Sheep]

i am simply in awe of this showing, they showed new titles coming, infamous, confirmed and announced exclusivity, showed an awesome longer version of the game everyone is waiting for, they didnt even show lair (maybe i missed it) the agency, getaway, and some others. It just shows you that sony is committed to giving its customers the goods. yeah maybe we had to wait a little bit, but then again, didn't the 360 have to wait a year to get GeOW, we are still 4 months away from that stage. I really wanted to hear about some details of firmware 2.0, but oh well , guess you cant have everything.

[razer]

Was a good press conference but I'm not going to be a fanboy and say they owned hands down or stole the show. Basically everything they showed was already expected and already been played up to the max. UT3 and Haze being a timed exclusive is a good thing and KZ 2 looked incredible. HOME looked boring as ever and I nearly busted a gut laughing at 11mil units by the end of the year. They are basically saying they will double their sales +3mil between now and the end of the year.. That is bold and I was really hoping Sony wouldn't say anything stupid but they just couldn't help themselves. Infamous looks cool albeit a rip-off of Crackdown. Sony definately has superb first party game dev's, something MS could learn from.

[Jeba]

1st the worst
2nd the best
3rd the one... ehh screww the wii

its nice to see all the xbots in the ps3 news section.. id go to the xbox e3 section but theres noone there
