oh that's a good thread title change. :lol

:lol Jesus what happened here?!

disappointment leads to bitterness, I guess.

 

[Johnas]

They could be doing what Atlus are doing with Persona 4, keeping it under wraps then unveiling after TGS so it doesn't get buried.

If that is the case, the game must be hype worthy to get its own unveiling. Maybe.

I admire your optimism. Let's hope!

 

[Zombie James]

Keynote != Conference

I was being sarcastic.

 

[Evlar]

Please summarize.

250 million Slim wake-on-LAN AFRIKAAA! rumblin' Home delayed sneeze Folding Good-night. (no price drop)

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

I have faith. When is the Square Enix keynote?

Are you clutching your Sony brand rosary beads?

 

[TTP]

Jesus christ. COD4 for 360 then. Rumble was the discrtiminating factor.

 

[C4Lukins]

Please summarize.

The End

How bout Ninja Gaiden then? I think it looks awesome. DS can do competent 3D. Obviously not at console/PSP level. I think theres room for both (Though Contra 4 a 2D title, is my most wanted DS title of this year btw,)

Wait, you really want to settle for "competent." That's like, the highest praise? Why don't we go for "awesome", instead of "competent", which is the type of 2D DS can do? Anyway, I don't even think DS 3D is competent... but if I did, Ninja Gaiden is a bad example too since almost all of it is pre-rendered, which requires almost no power at all comparable to rendering the shit in real-time. AND it's uglier, static and makes things feel dead by comparison.

Anyway, I mean you've got so many good looking 2D games... and so many games would work well in 2D. It's disappointing that it's always overlooked on DS for... the ugliest possible 3D.

 

[OokieSpookie]

I put this as a tie with Microsoft's E3 presentation and still better than Nintendo's E3 presentation though neither of those distinctions is a good thing.

 

[InterMoniker]

HAhahaha fuckin bastards I wanted a Dual Shock 3 this year!

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Not was not, people are making like its the wost thing ever, when it was not.Alot of people were looking forward to Afrkia and the DualShock 3

But people were talking about DS3 rocking holiday titles this year. DS3 and HOME delays to 08 just feel like an absolute surrender for Holiday 07 in NA. AND GT5 is December IN JAPAN. No mention of a US release. That's pretty bad, all told, for NA.

 

[seat]

Can I see a picture of the new controller?

I suppose I could be wrong, but I think we already know exactly what it looks like.

 

[prelude514]

Can I see a picture of the new controller?

 

[Kintaro]

Man, all I know is, there better be some killer games on the floor or yet to be announced. If not, screw it.

 

[rakka]

Have S-E had their conference yet? lol

No.

 

[msdstc]

Can I see a picture of the new controller?

now just pretend it's vibrating.

 

[FrankT]

250 million Slim wake-on-LAN AFRIKAAA! rumblin' sneeze Home delayed Folding Good-night. (no price drop)

Dualshock3-Spring 08US/EU

Now your good.

 

[TTP]

Can I see a picture of the new controller?

It's IDENTICAL to the current one.

 

[Aleman]

They are going to get torn apart in sales this winter. No price drop + everything seems to be hitting "Spring 2008."

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

Can I see a picture of the new controller?

:lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[kay]

Jesus christ. COD4 for 360 then. Rumble was the discrtiminating factor.

Can't you just get a Japanese controller? I don't see the problem with that unless supply is limited but I doubt it.

 

[angelfly]

Epic disappointment! All eyes on SE now.

 

[Son of Godzilla]

Jesus @ the new title

 

[Catchpenny]

So basically, the PS3 is really launching in spring 2008 (HOME, real controller, lower price, some good games) and Sony fans paid $600 to do beta testing.

 

[alistairw]

Second Life has no achievement trophies.

Yeah, but Home has no BDSM, so it evens out.

 

[twinturbo2]

So, when can I access the PSN store from my compy?

 

[Steroyd]

Note to Game Companies: Call all future press conferences from now on keynotes for safety.

Sony did call this a keynote and it ended a conference bomba.

Shame it's the last big conference of the year now it's xmas sales time.

 

[Gahiggidy]

now just pretend it's vibrating.

Wait isn't that the same one from... 1998?

 

[besada]

It's IDENTICAL to the current one.

With last-gen rumble smeared all over it.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

But people were talking about DS3 rocking holiday titles this year. DS3 and HOME delays to 08 just feel like an absolute surrender for Holiday 07 in NA. AND GT5 is December IN JAPAN. No mention of a US release. That's pretty bad, all told, for NA.

To be fair, this is the TOKYO Game Show. The focus was on Japanese gaming.

 

[h3ro]

I need to stop expecting megatons... but come on, not even a little firecracker?

I don't care about looking at animals, thats what the Discovery Channel is for, nor do I want to watch TV on my PSP, thats what a TV is for.

All I want is for Sony and SE to take my money and give me a game that I already dropped 150+ hours of my life on, put it in a Blu Ray case and sell it back to me for $60.

If they want to make money on the damn thing, what could be easier than selling something you already made!!!

IDIOTS!

Well, they certainly are consistent.

 

[InterMoniker]

now just pretend it's vibrating.

lol

Lol pretend it's vibrating. I am soooo glad they didn't change anything, if they did I can't tell.

I put this as a tie with Microsoft's E3 presentation and still better than Nintendo's E3 presentation though neither of those distinctions is a good thing.

Well this was a keynote, but it still sucked

 

[IzumiK]

Yeah, but Home has no BDSM, so it evens out.

Reminds me of those Harry Potter videos. -_-

 

[SPEA]

7:38: "We want to go back to the starting point to see what it is. I think in the broad sense, it IS a game machine, and it IS a blu-ray player, and it IS a supercomputer. But on a fundamental level, it's a game machine, and we want to make sure that we lead in that respect."

Kaz seemed to of changed his outlook from last year.

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

Quantic Dream has some explaining to do...

Indeed

 

[msdstc]

Wait isn't that the same one from... 1998?

OF COURSE NOT ARE YOU BLIND, this is the one you're thinking of.

 

[siamesedreamer]

The HOME delay is understandable. But, holding back the DS3 until Spring 2008 is ridiculous.

Why even show it? As if the $600 pricetag wasn't enough to keep people waiting.

 

[Grecco]

It's IDENTICAL to the current one.

Which sucks. Bring back the old L2R2 plz.

 

[fistfulofmetal]

But people were talking about DS3 rocking holiday titles this year. DS3 and HOME delays to 08 just feel like an absolute surrender for Holiday 07 in NA. AND GT5 is December IN JAPAN. No mention of a US release. That's pretty bad, all told, for NA.

Home and DualShock 3 have very little to do with "winning" the holiday season. Do you think a substantial number of people are going to buy one for those two things? Get real.
If Home isn't ready, it isn't ready. Let them finish the thing instead of releasing a half done piece of software, then have everyone here bitch because they couldn't finish it.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

didn't take 'em long to get hidden cam of the Sony Game Trailer collage on YouTube... wow...

[alistairw]

I don't know what you're talking about, and I feel very comfortable in that.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

To be fair, this is the TOKYO Game Show. The focus was on Japanese gaming.

Absolutely, but instead of just focusing on Japan they actually announced things that will have a detrimental impact on NA. They can't just wait until a later conference to make HOME and DS3 available this holiday for GT5P.

 

[Beer Monkey]

It's IDENTICAL to the current one.

All the humor about the keynote not withstanding, it's irritating as fuck that that they are giving us a controller with an almost identical form factor as the Dual Shock 1 one decade ago. Controller design has come a hell of a long way since then, analog buttons + waggle + wireless + shitty triggers is not as much progress as we should have since then. The SixAxis needs some serious work and they just blew a big chance to reinvent it.

 

[Big-E]

The HOME delay is understandable. But, holding back the DS3 until Spring 2008 is ridiculous.

Why even show it? As if the $600 pricetag wasn't enough to keep people waiting.

Because its coming out in November for Japan?

 

[Pistolero]

So basically, the PS3 is really launching in spring 2008 (HOME, real controller, lower price, some good games) and Sony fans paid $600 to do beta testing.

Good one ! :lol
And WTF at this thread ? Seriously, if the last TGS is to go by, games will be unveiled on the floor. At the worst behind closed doors. If your "potential" heart stealer is not to be found, you should blame yourself for swallowing the rumors...

 

[freshair]

didn't take 'em long to get hidden cam of the Sony Game Trailer collage on YouTube... wow...

I hate you. :lol

 

[Rolf NB]

Wtf is this the same thread that had like 11 pages when I started following the live blog?

I have only one question that hasn't been answered yet: how does that llama wyrm thing fart?

Oh and stupid fail at no-pricedrop-ton.
*kicks up a shovel*

 

[besada]

Afrika is looking more and more like Peter Molyneux's B.C. The keep showing footage, no real gameplay, and they've been showing it since before launch.

 

[GenericPseudonym]

Can't you just get a Japanese controller? I don't see the problem with that unless supply is limited but I doubt it.

I don't see why anyone would import a controller from Japan to play a game they could've bought months earlier with rumble on another console they already own.
