  1. The reports I've read had the PS motion controller tech beyond what even Nintendo was doing, but they should not have shown it at that stage of development, and the demonstration was clearly a rushed, last minute addition.
  2. I strongly disagree with that, but to each their own. Is it my favorite RPG? No, that honor belongs to Xenogears. I don't even feel its the best in the FF series. But I had a complete blast playing it, and at the time, it was spectacular looking. On top of that, it almost single-handedly made the PSX.
  3. Actually, no they haven't. The only message I ever saw come out of Bioware on this was something along the lines of, "We can't tell you why, but hold onto your saves." If they ever promised a carry over of level, abilities, and gear, they dropped that stance before the PC version was released.
  4. From IGN: And now for some news that might upset the hardcore Mass Effect fans. Your level from your first Mass Effect game will not carry over into the second game, something done in the interest of maintaining a degree of balance. The decisions you made in the first game will have a major impact on the story for Mass Effect 2. The team is still figuring out what to do with your skills, but those might get reset as well since the option exists to switch classes at the start of Mass Effect 2.
  5. Looks like our hero's name is Gabriel.
  6. Updated the trailer, no longer the hand-cam recorded version.
  7. What motivates a man to confront the challenges that most of us would run from? E3 Trailer Produced by Kojima Productions, developed by Mercury Stream Voice cast includes: Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Robert Carlyle, Natasha McElhone and Jason Isaacs
  8. MASK= Castlevania: Lords of Shadows. God of War like, character said to look like Simon. Patrick Stewart doing the voicework for the main character.
  9. Also, Peace Walker is a true sequel to MGS3, and Kojima is totally hands on with it, from the story on down.
  10. News from Konami's press conference (via G4): PS3 LOGO confirmed on the title screen. This is the "next series of Metal Gear" for the next-gen consoles. This is a stealth espionage action game, but the main character will be Raiden. Kojima is testing a new method of game development. More of the American way: using the same game engine for multiple titles. Rising will be created by the "up & coming youngblood" at Kojima Productions. PC also confirmed! PS3 / PC / Xbox 360
  11. Oh hey, how about this story from Joystiq.com: The Senior Vice President of Square Enix, Shinji Hashimoto, has started the super secret Square Enix press conference today by clarifying Final Fantasy XIV's exclusivity details. The game is currently pegged for the PS3 and PC, though "in terms of other hardware devices, including Microsoft's, we're considering all possibilities." Nice "exclusive", Sony.
  12. IX had me up until the 4th disc, where they (if I recall correctly) seemed to drop several storylines, and just rushed you to the ending. Its been years since I played it, but that was my impression as best I recall it. I felt let down, to a degree. Its funny, reading several of the reports about FFXIV, almost every single one talks about how excited they were for the reveal and the title until they saw the word "online" come across the screen. Its as if everyone went into "meh" mode at that point. Way to drop the ball!
  13. Nevermind, I found the info, seems it takes place in ME2.
  14. I dunno, I have always enjoyed their sports games, and the upcoming releases look like alot of fun. Also, I have yet to play a main entry in the Mario series that has failed to deliver a great gaming experience, and I expect MG2 to be no different. And Metroid, by Team Ninja? I mean, come on, awesomeness is. I'm not part of the "if it doesn't have guns, blood, and cursing in it, its not worth my time" crowd. Casual? Its fun. Isn't that why we all play video games? Anywho, back on topic, Last Guardian looks to be amazing, and maybe I should finally check out a God of War game.
  15. Wait, is this within the game (ME2), or in the original?
  16. FF13 isn't really Final Fantasy, its more like Phantasy Star meets, I dunno, Star Ocean. It has guns and mecha and... man, Square had me all excited that 14 would be going back to the series' roots, and it turns out to be an MMO. I mean, really, this was the big secret Sony was hiding? An MMO that maybe 100 or 200 thousand people will play?
  17. 1up.com went "hands on"
  18. This thread is boring and contains no useful information. I guess this is just where we are trying to pen up our resident techies? Someone poke me when something actually happens.
  19. Hey, I love the hell out of TFU. I honestly do not feel that Jedi Knight II was a better game than it (and I played the hell out of that game, and it got great reviews and is well regarded). The control scheme that some people seem to complain about is much, much better than the stumbling and bumbling joke that is GTA4 (another game which I enjoy alot). But, whichever. I liked it, and that's enough for me.
  20. Really, outside of The Last Guardian, I really didn't give a flying flarn. The FF14 news is just a complete failure.
  21. Metroid by Team Ninja? Are you kidding me? With the echo? Are you kidding me? HELL YES, SON!
  22. My guess is Sony didn't want to be second with this announcement, so they are waiting on Konami to "announce" it for the PS3 (and PC) at their press event. Either that, or its possible its a "timed" exclusive for the 360.
  23. Their biggest announcement ended in a facepalm when they revealed FF14 to be an MMO. Had that been a straight up, old school (read: not sci fi) FF game, it would have been the biggest news of E3. Instead we get shat on. They also wasted half of their press conference on the dildo thing.
  24. That sucked. Sony blew it.
