[Daxter Too]

The video is way too short if you ask me, but it shows some sweet footage. I hated the first mechassault, multiplayer felt tacked on(which it was). This one has me damn hyped, it looks like they got everything right this time and then some. Vtols, dropships, HUGE sense of scale which was nonexistant in the first one. It all looks great.

Best shooter at E3? That doesn't look like a screenshot of Gradius V...

I'm confused too...

Yeah, what's the deal?

 

[The Promised One]

Well, Mech Assault was a shooter to a certain extent. MA2 does indeed look awesome. I couldn't really get into the first one (I tried), but this one has my hyped.

BTW when do we get to see some footage of 'BLACK' [PS2]
supposedly the HALO2 killer. . .

 

[FortNinety]

"Best Shooter of E3" and it's not Gradius V? Shows what little that site knows...

 

[sprsk]

that screen shot looks hideous.

and i agree with this where the hell is gradius V sentiment.

When has Black ever been called a HALO2 killer? I just remember people that saw it at E3 saying it looked extremely good. IGN actually referred to it as the "Everything killer", not anything specific.

1996 called, they want their screenshot back.

Damn, it looks like it's running on Unreal Engine 1. Not terrible, but ugly nonetheless.

 

[Redbeard]

Much better.

yeah its so empty and low poly, although mechassault didnt look bad by any means.

anyway, all of you are wrong, the best shooter of E3 was alien hominid.

 

[sprsk]

Much better.

er

much better.

 

[Redbeard]

Meh. Xyanide looks far better.

 

[djtiesto]

I remember reading about Xyanide... made by a bunch of guys from Breda, the Netherlands... well if the music is anything like some of the out of Breda (hint: what's my username?), at least we know that part will be good

Gradius V is still the one to watch. RS is still my favorite shooter ever (I'm not really big on bullet hell shooters, honestly), and Ikaruga was great... and I am a big fan of many of Treasure's games.

Good luck trying to play it.
