Tretton: "See, not everythign got out."
Uhhh.... the motion controller wand got out also, dude.

 

[Anerythristic]

I am getting scared.

 

[laserbeam]

:lol @ people impressed over this. This was the antithesis of refinement and the very definition of a shameful rip-off.

But its Sony so its the greatest thing ever made!

 

[Double D]

Anyone else catch monkey butler doing 'dat ass'?

 

[XiaNaphryz]

No wonder so many people have abandoned the gaming side and stick to OT, christ. :lol

 

[AranhaHunter]

What is Sony Bend doing? Give me Syphon Filter, this sucks.

 

[RyuKanSan]

so is gaf in love with motion controls all of a sudden...well i never

 

[Souldriver]

god, nintendo.

you have no purpose. sonys tech looks BETTER than yours.


sony, get this out in 2010 and you have moar monies.

WTF is wrong with you...


If Nintendo didn't release the Wii, Sony wouldn't have come with this. And until yesterday you'd be very happy they didn't, but now that they did: ITS AWESOME!!!

Also, tech-demo vs consumer product.... All three manufacturers have the technology, but only Nintendo as given it in the costumers hands for three years now. Right now Nintendo has the edge, but it's only a start. All three manufacturers will have lots of great innovative stuff for the future.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

Come on, guyzzzzzzzzz

 

[StriKeVillain]

This is exactly what Wii Motionplus can do, trust me.

In SD.

 

[RichardAM]

Super Sackboy Kart?

 

[flipping_heck]

LBP racing :S

 

[Lince]

Sony's waggle better than expected, still an engineering prototype but the real-time live demos were impressive, the precision was amazing. Sword+shield demo and Archery showed potential, as of today I like it more than Wii motion plus.

 

[PistolGrip]

Sony is running out of time to amaze here

didnt it win already?

 

[DangerStepp]

Mii Nation Racers.

...

Next.

 

[Fuzzy]

Have you seen the Wii Motion Plus demos? It’s the same thing.

Lag or no lag, that's the difference.

 

[DMeisterJ]

The new Chad Warden ladies and gentlemen.

:lol :lol :lol

I love Chad.

 

[Owzers]

Bitter tears have been shed already...lol downplaying FFXIV now huh guys?

MMOs....

 

[Fantastical]

What an obvious rip off of the Wii. :lol

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Oh my FUCKING god, it's Toy Tokyo's showcase MOVING AROUND.

This is the coolest shit ever.

 

[Kusagari]

:lol at 'most gorgeous'

 

[fortified_concept]

well if dildos are ur thing

Dildos sucked I already said that.

 

[angelfly]

ModNation looks fun

 

[mood]

full power... right..

 

[RSLAEV]

Wow, this modnation game totally outdoes the Microsoft kart racer for me.

 

[dragonflys545]

CTR HD count me in!!!

 

[Hootie]

Jesus christ, just show TRICO and end this.

 

[jax (old)]

sonys motion control device wowed me. coupled with HD visuals. WOW.

whoever launces with a killer Zelda clone in HD = FTW




mod nation racer = wut?! Its LBP with racer and a different art style. Hmmm.

 

[nyong]

want

 

[NeoUltima]

"We are using the full power of the ps3, you can see for yourself"

The graphics are crap :lol

 

[FrankT]

PR leaked early- Trico is now named The Last Guardian, among other news pieces

Ok thanks.

 

[bottles]

Wii Sports Resort Archery - Pulling back = push a button

PS Dildo Archery - Pulling back = actually pulling back.

You can do the same with two Wii remotes and Motion Plus devices.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

"The results speak for themselves" - Game looks like its on the Wii

 

[Grayman]

Similar motion controllers, similar Kart racing games. GJ Sony/Microsoft.

the only reason for them to mutually exist is so that they can each throw obscene amounts of money at first party games to try and "win"

 

[Barrett2]

That motion demo was so awful... I will never forget the grey room... NEVER

Lets get back to the issue at hand; goddamn U2, AC2, PSPGO! games out the ass, and FF14!! Why even bother with the motion control bullshit when they could be talking more about those games? :lol

 

[Hunahan]

I love it how waggle went from zero to hero with just a switch in companies.

Ya'll are pathetic.

 

[Loudninja]

I like how this looks.

 

[bluehat9]

LittleBigMarioKart looks awesome!

 

[Meier]

My take so far...

@strikerobi LBP won't be any more fun or less floaty with new costumes. Most overrated game this gen in all likelihood. #e3 #playstation

Tech demos for Sony's wand controllers (any name yet?) are nicely done. I doubt I'll buy this just like I doubt I'll buy the Natal. #e3

Content warning before FF13 footage.. are we finally (PLEASE!) getting an M-rated Final Fantasy? #e3 #playstation

Flying in AC2 reminds me a lot of Ratchet and Clank Future. #e3 #playstation

Absolutely cannot wait until Assassin's Creed 2. Loved the original personally. I can swim this time too! 360 version 4 me #e3 #playstation

Missed the MGS Peace Walker trailer. I hope they put it up on PSN in HD... HOME montage is a pointless time waster. #e3 #playstation

The PSP Go itself though appears very small -- much, much less bulky than even the Slim. #e3 #playstation

$250 for the PSP Go seems surprising. You're removing any re-sale value to the games AND making the system cost more? #e3 #playstation

PSP Go looks fairly sharp when closed but truly is godawful when opened. The button placement.. everything about it is bad. #e3 #playstation
about 1 hour ago from web

MAG is technically impressive but honestly, the gameplay just doesn't interest me. I am sure lag is going to murder it too. #e3 #playstation
about 1 hour ago from web

Uncharted 2 looks even more frenetic than the first. I absolutely cannot wait. #e3 #playstation
about 1 hour ago from web

Demo during the conference is a little less exciting since we've seen so much in-game/played footage so far for Uncharted 2. #e3 #sony

[Gary Whitta]

Sony Wand archery = Wii Sports Resort archery
ModNation Racers = JoyRide

Please show us something not already offered by one of your competitors.

 

[jakncoke]

game looks fun

 

[Garryk]

Cool Mario Kart Pure

 

[Shapingo]

If this game controls like Wacky Racer or Skunny kart, Day 1

 

[GashPrex]

PR leaked early- Trico is now named The Last Guardian, among other news pieces

wow, they really do leak everything

 

[Danthrax]

Can you be that precise though? The archery thing was pretty amazing

er... yes?

the problem with "preciseness" is that it's jittery as shit, which is what we saw with Sony's techdemo there. many Wii games tony down the preciseness a bit so it's not shaking all over the screen, which gives the player better control.

Sony will learn in time, though. one would hope.
