Serious? I think Nults & Bolts and Viva Pinata are way more complex than Resistance or Ratchet. (and better looking)

Fine, assholes, beat me up. I deserve it. I was being facetious. I was trying to imply that they haven't done anything noteworthy (to me...I'm selfish) since Banjo. Take my Only On Xbox badge and give it to someone more worthy. sniff

Fucker. You're not worthy. Repent by playing....wait, what exclusives does the Xbox have again?
 
Gah! Getting close now. MS flexsealed the hell outta that tent. No leaks anywhere (barring those rumored games).

I gotta make more pics for this...
 
Insomniac would do a nextbox exclusive for $$$ and if they get to keep the IP (don't see why they wouldn't)

I don't think they have some big desire to be multiplatform, I think it's gone that way because it's the most profitable.

I think they're about to find out shitty being multiplatform can be if you don't release a stellar game. I liked the demo, but not enough to buy it. And if you're releasing a game this close to new consoles that dont have BC, you sure as shit better make it great (Last of Us).

Well the only real reason MS got third exclusives early is because they released early. IF both consoles release around the same timeframe, it will be harder to justify signing on for an exclusive AFAICT. For me, it doesn't make sense if they release together.

MS got a bunch of exclusives because they gave a lot of support for devs too. It was clear when Move and Kinect launched in the same time, and MS got a lot of exclusives, even from Japan.

edit: uhh.. guess I need to change my avatar -_-

I think the sales of FUSE have to come in for that to happen. While I love most of Insomniac's games, FUSE sales probably won't be anywhere close to R&C numbers.

Why did you post here without an only on xbox logo. *Shakes head*

and you too!
 
So given Greenberg's comments; what's the over/under on # of games shown on Monday?
No less than 3, no more than 7.

We already pretty much know two that will be there, and two seems to be an odd number to show, especially if they have a highlight reel.
 
I get the sense I'm abut to be banned because of that other thread. Not sure why, just a hunch. Might need to bail, its getting a bit much in there.
 
Apparently they're not salty, worried, ect ect.

If that's true, why are they being so ... passionate? lol

Funny I am reading the same thing on the last page as on the first page, people are very original. Kinda sad that we can't have discussions about the actual topic.
 
Wowser the other threads a bit heated...dang.

If MS is smart they have a teaser trailer filled with little secrets. Audio snips, flashes of games, bits of art.

As we can tell just in the last 3 months a single twitter from PGR can send us into 100+ pages of total posts. Thats the kind of thing that engages gamers.

Yeah I kinda give up caring tbh, it's amazing when a 360 topic about sales doesn't transcend into RROD within the first page around here. This thread has been surprisingly awesome!! I think there is too many pro xbox people here, it's scaring them off :P

Also if the system name is out there we might get some developers coming out and tell us what they work on (Remedy, pls).
 
I have a feeling class 4 ( the MMO version of State of decay) will be announced for the Nextbox, it is a zombie game and that was rumoured.


I just hope we see at-least 1 open world game, Crackdown doesn't do it.
 
I really like FUSE, but I really can't see it doing well in terms of sales. Coming out this year with the new consoles down the pipe, with little to know marketing or advertising (so far) just seems like something that could be disasterous. I hope I'm wrong though.

I really dislike how EA is either all-in or completely absent when it comes to advertising/marketing. Stuff like BF and Madden are on TV's 24/7, but smaller scale games seem to get no exposure at all. Obviously that's a bit of a hyperbolic statement, but you get the idea.

Ice cold.

Hey, it's true!

Yes, heck I want them to put in all their mascots even if games arnt in dev right now. What a great way to kick things off.

Ya for sure but I am just talking about that last 30 seconds of their briefing to keep people freaking out about stuff. ONe thing that Sony didn't do right.

Also a good ARG would do them wonders with perhaps game information being released as the community discovers particular amounts of information.

NOTHING you have done is even close to banning material. NOTHING.

Undead Labs is a very small team and they just finished work on State of Decay. Will take some time :)

Here is hoping for continuous information from 21st leading to E3.
 
I wonder if Pachter will focus on the reveal during his rant thing he does on GT.

Suffice to say that the week following the reveal, every major website will be focusing on and dissecting the reveal, Pachter included. Can't wait to hear everyone's impressions afterwards actually.

Why not? Crackdown is one hell of an open world game. Did you play the original at all?

And as someone said, no way in hell we will see Class 4 at the announcement. Class 3 (State of Decay) isn't even out for another month yet. I'm sure they're already planning it out, but we won't see that for likely another 2 years (assuming State of Decay doesn't tank and the studio has to close down or something :( ).

Hey, it's true!

I completely agree on both points. I think if FUSE had kept it's original design, it would actually sell more. That in and of itself turned me off of buying the game. And I liked the demo, I just don't care for co-op much.
 
Big, unsuspected endings are the fucking best in anything.

I mentioned the WWF before, but back in the 90's, they and WCW were always so fun to watch, especially the last 5 minutes because you knew that some crazy shit was likely going to happen. Big endings just make thing way more fun, and they can make your memory of a mediocre event a lot more positive, since it's the last taste you get.

Totally. Sometimes playing it safe isn't playing it safe, ie Borderlands. That game looked like a pretty good, regular game, but those cartoon-y graphics differentiated it visually from the rest of the pack, and made it a big hit.

This is what fireworks look like in Nintendoland!

Not always. Lost did the same thing in later seasons. It made watching them a chore to only enjoy the last 5-10 minutes.

Right. That Fortnight game from Epic is looking awesome to me, only because of the art style. Even though I dislike co-op games, I'll probably buy it just because it looks awesome.
