If people thought this conference wasn't impressive then the other two will be BOMBAs.

This generation has forced alot of us to become multiplatform owners. You just can't get everything on one system anymore lol
That was a hell of a conference.
Splinter Cell looked fucking brilliant and did things unlike any else out there.
Halo ODST is going to be the shit!
Alan Wake - incredible.
CRACKDOWN 2! (good job on all of the little breadcrumbs leading up to the announcement!)
Metal Gear Rising - not my type of series at all, but hell, beats the hell of a port of an old game - good job getting a brand new game.
The Natal stuff seriously impressed me - reading the rumors here (not actually reading the whole thing), I was totally against the motion-sensing thing, but seeing the whole thing presented, I was thoroughly impressed with what I saw. That blew away anything out there when it comes to motion sensing in gaming, sorry.
Forza 3 looks & sounds top-class - and the new livery editor & HD replay editor? Master.
Left 4 Dead 2!
Shadow Complex - XBLA game looks hella nice too for sure.
Oh, and all of the media & social stuff, nice extras for those who like them, no doubt...
The only things for me that was a shame was that there were no XBLA showcase & no Rare games, but without a doubt XBLA games will be shown this week I'm sure...
Maaaaaaaaaaaan, I need to watch this whole conference again in HD...

Microsoft just falcon punched Sony and Nintendo into the pervading blackness of oblivion.
Halo: Reach. Metal Gear Solid 5. Killer exclusives. Technology teleported in from the future. Microsoft just pulled about two years ahead.
Sony is finished. Nintendo has been out-innovated. Microsoft have won the generation and secured themselves the console industry for the next decade.
Gameover man.

Poor Sony

Sadly, you might be right. With all this new Natal stuff, Rare could be doing that & avatar stuff exclusively. Sad for them.
Upon further reflection, its even more puzzling they would upstage Tony Hawk like that. Why go to the trouble of moneyhatting his appearance & preview of the game if they are just going to upstage it with first party stuff? Pretty odd.

Just interested in what you consider an "advancement in gaming" to be. Or what you consider "a long time", considering, you know, the Wii and all.
JoJo13 said:
I don't understand how you can say Nintendo's control is better. Is it because you can just sit on your ass and not move? Is it because you need to hold something in your hands.
It really makes little sense. There is nothing the Nintendo controller can do, that Nadal can't. So why would you prefer it?
The only reason I could see is if you are a fat pig (not saying you are), and will gas out after playing a game for one minute.

As I said, I agree with all business side of these demos. But personally, I don't want to see that on stage for half an hour.
People who aren't on forums and internet, won't notice these demos. People who are on the forums know that these are multiplatform games. They know what they will buy. Showing at one conference is not gonna change their minds. Then why waste imp time on that? Better show something else from their own line-up. They could have shown more XBLA games.

I have to say that was probably the greatest showing I have ever seen any console manufacture have at E3.
Hats off Microsoft hats off.

If people thought this was mediocre, I can't imagine what they are expecting in the other conferences.

Finally! I got on.
Never leave me again during goddamn E3 GAF :lol
MS conference started out meh, but got seriously awesome during the middle.
All the exclusive games looked awesome. Crackdown 2, Splinter Cell, Forza 3, 2 new Halo games! Epic XBLA game, Metal Gear Raiden etc.
The camera stuff wasnt even that bad either. Unlike Nintendo, MS knows that you need to demo this kind of shit with hot girls. Abby getting all sweaty was cool, and then the doggy style elephant creation was sweet.
Milo shit was creepy as fuck, but it was balanced out by Claries hot ass.
The camera tech looked impressive, but I'm really disappointed they didn't show any real games for it.
Biggest disappointment was no Rare! WTF?
Not even Perfect Dark XBLA?!

The Beatles Rock Band: This shit is embarassing and boring. Please hurry the fuck up.
Tony Hawk Ride: Wow. Lame. Please hurry the fuck up.
Modern Warfare 2: Don't really care. Please hurry the fuck up.
Final Fantasy XIII: Potentially awesome show cut far too short, would've loved to see some more stuff about the summons.
Epic XBLA: Looks kind of crap, though the concept is neat.
Racing XBLA Game: Free, cool stuff. Could be cute.
Crackdown 2: Never played the first, didn't really care. Looks cool though.
Left 4 Dead 2: Never played the first, didn't really care.
Splinter Cell Conviction: Ho. Lee. Shit. Game of the conference, absolutely blew me away. It looks incredible.
Forza 3: The definitive racing experience, unlikely to ever be surpassed, no matter how hard we try for all of time. [/spoiler]Didn't give a shit.[/spoiler]
Halo: Didn't care.
Alan Wake: Looked nowhere near as good as I was hoping, actually reminded me a lot of Alone in the Dark. Hugely disappointing, hopefully it'll look better to me when I see it in higher quality.
Online features/Networking/Stuff: Don't give a shit, but the red head was cute.
Metal Gear Rising: Don't care about the franchise.
Xbox Camera Stuff: Nothing looked fun. I loved the diss about waggle gameplay while a girl flailed her whole fucking body wildly to hit balls in a shitty looking breakout clone. I had huge expectations when Spielberg walked out for something as incredible as Boom Blox, but it's too soon I suppose. I'd love to see his ideas for it though.
Milo: Moly should be congratulated, he's almost attained his goal of making the ultimate gameplay-free and fun-free game. This shit will change everything forever. Looking forward to it so much.
Overall: Splinter Cell stole the show for me. Looks insane, and I want it so much. The show was generally pretty good, probably going to please the hardcore, but the pacing was all over the fucking place. 15 minutes for The Beatles Rock Band against like 3 minutes for FFXIII? Anyway, there was enough there to keep me interested, even if I wasn't interested in the games themselves at all times. Give it a C.

Not directed at me I know, but the only game I will definitely buy on that list is Modern Warfare 2 which I'll get for the PC. The Halo stuff could be interesting, have to wait to hear more. The rest is meh. So yeah, it is possible for people not to be interested in the games one of the three show.Karma said:

I think the original had enough level related variety(especially with the randonness everytime you started a new campaign) but not enough diversity in enemies. With the new enemies, environment effects/changes, etc. they have in the sequel, I'm thinking they just took this out of the original and made a new game with it. Otherwise, it could have been a 2 or 3 year classic with an overdue anticipation for the sequel. More $$$$

These conferences always are, i felt sorry for MS everytime it was just the one guy on the stage clapping.
My take:
New peripheral for Tony Hawk - i dont care
FF13 for Spring 2010 - pointless footage, same as in demo.
MW2 Exclusive Maps - same as COD4. It will print money
New Arcade game by EPIC - it looks fine, but kinda dont care.
CRACKDOWN 2 - cgi = fail
L4D 2 - cgi = fail
Splinter Cell Conviction - it looks awesome
Halo 3 ODST and Halo Reach, beta included with ODST - i dont fucking care
Forza 3 - i LOLd when they claimed it was best racing game ever
Alan Wake - looks amazing, definitely day one
Zune Video Store, HD1080P, Streaming, Facebook/Twitter - dont care
METAL GEAR RISING - one true MEGATON, its not exclusive i belive
Xbox Fluid Camera - epic fail so far.
Milo - it would be better if they exchange boy for a stripper
Overall, it was OK. Lots of things i didnt care, but games are solid. They didnt show anything groundbraking in tearms of games, no new IP-s, everyhing was known before the show [except MGRising]
7/10
