Solid stuff Mino, was gonna say that it could use some more stuff but you got quite a lot in terms of levels, models and textures so I think its fine. Now go get hired somewhere!

Btw, is that Insurgency map in the mod? Don't remember playing it

Ooooh wait a minute, was it the fairly plain looking map with loads of bunkers? I think I remember now, was pretty good stuff

Oh and hi btw

Sony wins!

Far better than both Microsoft and Nintendo. I really liked their style this year. Instead of the cocky and mean Sony of last year, they're a lot more forthcoming and realistic about their position this time, a great change. Also they actually do have quite a lot of really cool exclusive stuff coming, enough to rival Microsoft it seems.

That extra Killzone stuff looked awesome too, definitely gonna want that in a higher res

Btw, is it just me or is Jack Tretton just adorable? I just wanna hug him!

Yup, was like I figured. The zapper wasn't that big a surprise (If anything I'm surprised they didn't have that last year), the Wii Fit mat and all came kinda outta nowhere though. And seriously, how many times can they clap themselves on their back, those clips with people being all Wii crazy got old around the second block

Anyway, Mario Kart and Galaxy looks cool, and I might actually look into that Fitness thingy, might as well use the Wii for something

Sony in 1 hour~

I thought it was kinda boring, too long imo. I mean it looks like an alright I guess, but it hardly stands out as anything special around now :G

We need fast cuts constantly, action packed stuff!

Aye just found it, looks pretty damn sweet. They've definitely got a hold of the visuals. Love the beginning on the small landing craft, nod to the first trailer ;D. Those lightning clouds are fucking rad as well, really cool dark feel to it.

Just hope they're also working on the gameplay, the first Killzone was kinda sour in that end.

Cant get it working, fckn dumb firewall at work :G

The screen shots look pretty good though, hopefully it'll get on Gamespot soon.

Screw that crappy screenshot of Killzone, we've got the demo here and it's much much better than I expected it to be. In fact the video of it doesn't do the demo justice.

Haha, cant wait to see what Sony's got up their sleeves. With the Microsoft not quite making as big a splash as they did last year I'd imagine they got some fair chances of going out with the best impression.

Problem is that Sony's conferences are just always so awfully dull, loads of boring statistics and graphs to please their investors and dull business men talking about pointless stuff, where as Microsoft do a lot better job at making it entertaining to watch. Now that I think about it though, maybe Sony should just shut up about the business side and talk about the games

Well, some pretty solid stuff but I was hardly blown away by any of it. Resident Evil 5 was nice, didn't think we'd even see a tiny teaser of that until next year. Also Assassins Creed did look pretty damn cool, the animation in the game looks sick, too bad about all that cyber stuff. COD4 was pretty cool as well, quite different.

Halo 3 though, meh. That's why you dont want "gameplay trailers", they always feel a bit weaker imo. Looked good enough though.

No MGS4 ;D

Aight, Nintendo is up next in 11 hours

I'm up already, watching it from Gamespot~

O snap!

Was thinking about staying up and watch the MS conference live, but then I realized that use Euro folks might as well just get up early, much closer that way

Grats skdr~~

Hehe aye Reno, a Shenmue 3 would definitely be able to steal the show for me (Instead of some lousey MMO Shenmue, pffft stupid Sega).

Also that Killzone 2 shot is great, reminds me a lot of the most recent Duke Nukem Forever shots they released on Gamasutra ;D

Oh yeah, changed the thread name

Aye I definitely do not think it'd come to the 360 as an exclusive, was kinda joking since I find the entire MGS4 on other consoles talk pretty insane to be honest.

However if they actually got it as an exclusive, imagine not only the impact it would have in terms of people who'd been wanting a PS3 just to play that, but the sort of impact it would have on the entire Sony lineup. I'd bet that Microsoft would fork out a lot of cash to at least secure the same release date as on the PS3 (Although the $50 mil GTA4 exclusive thing makes me wonder exactly how much they'd have to pay for it).

Anyway, this is actually one of the things I'm really looking forward to, its pretty exciting when you see these huge companies fighting it out

So, with Microsoft starting off in a couple of hours with their conference, who do you think will come out best?

Personally I'm gonna bet on Microsoft for first place, followed closely by Sony in second place and Nintendo third.

I think Microsoft is just gonna have a lot to show, and the stuff they show is gonna be top notch, and they'll probably finally show off some Halo 3 SP stuff that is actually impressive (Although boring probably). Probably some new IPs, new exclusives (Hi MGS4, roflcopter!). Definitely has the potential of being the most unsurprising of the 3 though.

I do think that Sony has a really good chance to gain lost territory here, and really make an impression. I know it was kinda similar last year, and they really screwed it up there, but they're probably gonna bust out more Home stuff and additions to their online infrastructure, show off some impressive exclusives (MGS4 if it doesn't go 360, GT5, Killzone), and further try to remind people about the $100 pricecut. Also I'm being awfully naive and hope they'll show something from Fumito Ueda and the Shadow of the Colossus team's new game, be it at the conference or the show behind closed doors.

Nintendo on the other hand really needs to provide some really original and interesting new stuff that use the Wii's strengths, that is more than just a mini game compilation. I really hope Nintendo can changes my opinion, because right now the Wii really doesn't have a lot going for it in terms of deep and interesting titles. I really hope they can change that feeling.

Anyway, what do you guys think?

Wow. That is the definition of sad and obsessed.

Definitely a step in the right direction in terms of price. Now I just hope they'll release some decent games soon so I can stop using it as a dedicated Blu-Ray/Super Startdust player :G

Still doesn't change the fact that anyone who's looking for the best games selection these days would be brain dead to go for a PS3.

Really hope Sony got some exciting stuff in store for their conference on Wednesday~they'll need it~

Its a really long time since I've seen him, but I always figured he was in IRC quite frequently and didn't bother with the forums anymore :G

CRATES.

Oh and regarding the PIT/RD personas then they are two different people, that is unless RD went out of his way and had some other person join in and playtest maps as PIT. Also it might be time to put an end to his madness, noone knows who made Iceworld, and RD actually somehow pulled off getting lots of people believing that he made it

Would be awesome if he made a Source map, his playtests were always completely insane in the very best way
