Best of E3:

Have you guys been keeping track of E3 this year? Well... Nintendo won. :P
That aside the 3DS is potentially the most awesome leap in a long time. 3d without glasses that's actually effective, natural looking and everything! If only they could get it working as easy (or hard) on consoles (stupid TVs!).
Nintendo showed a lot of games. I don't really like the Zelda graphics but I'd never seen a Zelda game I didn't like (not counting the CDi ones) so I'm sure it'll own.
Donkey Kong Country is coming back, Kirby too and many more.
Microsoft and Sony just mainly showed us their version of motion control which left many people just thinking "nothing new". Though there are several games that look interesting.
On the PC side I'm looking forward to The Old Republic and they released another potentially million dollar costing trailer where a Jedi goes HAAADOOUUUKEN! They revealed player ships and said they'd be customizable. etc etc.
Basically I loved what Nintendo is doing with the 3DS, their games and then I loved many of the PC games (TOR, Civ 5, etc).

And not good kind of died.
And Nintendo always wins E3.
I hearsay Sony and Microsoft are copying Nintendo's motion control... of course.
Holy TRIBBLE i didn't see that one! STO, TOR, and now WH40K, i think i'm heading to sci-fi MMOG heaven!
EDIT: as for nintendo, yeah they won.... if you're a ten year old! for me? it was Mortal Kombat, taking a page out of capcoms book and going back to it's roots. It's the game that'll make me get a console.
This.
A thousand times, this.
We're never going to see you two again once that comes out are we?
It does look great though.
Nothing has gotten me super excited this year, but still some good stuff there.
Depends on a few factors.
First is of course the quality of the competing product. Second is what Star Trek will have. If Star Trek develops in a way that I like, I will stick with it. However if Warhammer turns out to be superior, I will go with that. I have high hopes for both, but I am finicky girl. So impress me Cryptic and Vigil!
But if Vigil can live up to the awesome that was in that video (I wanna pilot a Titan!) then I know where I will go.
Hear that Cryptic? Ravensteins wants a Giant Robot. I know Star Trek has the technology to make them. Or at least they should...
Maybe a mission where you pilot a giant Lore attacking Quo'nos? (Lazer eyes of course)
Maybe I'm a TRIBBLE, but I'm still hoping that Microsoft Kinect can make something revolutionary (or at least non-lame) happen with all their impressive tech. Child of Eden (Rez sequel) looks sweet... but I want something that I can't possibly do with a traditional controller.
The new Metal Gear Solid "cutting" tech looks like it will lead to some hilarious situations. Portal 2 = love.
I could totally get on board with that.
The enemy has a knockback that launches us into space.
That would be epic.
Also, Rocketman by Elton John as the mission's music.
The most exciting one was the Nintendo 3DS. Also really looking forward to the new Kirby game!!!!
PICTURES!!!
Nintendo rehashed a load more old titles, sony ripped off the wii, microsoft failed to recognise that a periferal that costs $150 isn't very attactive (HD DVD drive any one?)
Fail.
It's the truth. Raven and I will MMO-elope and skip together forever through strawberry fields of skulls for the skull throne.
You lie. You know as well as I do that Star Trek can't create anything that can measure up to the endless love that is possibly maybe being able to pilot a Titan hopefully.
I would settle for this. Not quite the same thrill as piloting a Titan straight into the ranks of an Ork WAAAGGHH thousands strong and purging the xenos in the name of the Venerable God-Emperor of Mankind, but it'll do.
This needs not be said, because we're already all thinking it.
Prometron. I could get behind this idea.

O_O
I have ALWAYS loved the whole "tech facility overtaken bit by bit by nature'-style of graphics design. (something about the awesome power of nature, I suspect).
and this is, I think, the first time I've ever seen it done right.
You monster.
edits:
on Kinect... if you look closely during the live demonstration... several times the characters onscreen moved before the players did... looked worse than milli vanilli's lipsyncing.
on the new Kid Icarus... I cried inside. why are they deliberately killing my inner child?
on WH40k ... hmmm. intriguing indeed. my interest, you may partake of it.
Swoon...
That might win me over
I am just amped to see what gets talked about a few weeks from now. When the videogame journalists have had a chance to compare notes.
That would work. That would more then work! Get on it. Adding that to my list of things I want alongside hats, hair decs, and ponies.
I'd hardly call what MS is dong copying. (See PS3 wand for that)
The only reason you are seeing most of this motion controlled trash is to appeal to the common player, IE 90% of the WII owners. Kids, casual players, etc. Nothing wrong with that.
I don't think the WII has won anything but sales. The graphics are noticeably light years behind the competition (PS2 graphics at best) and losing ground every year. The online service is a joke compared to MS, Nintendo hasn't done nearly enough to tap into that potential like they should have over a year ago. The Zelda game is going to be amazing, they almost always are, it will be nice to see a Zelda game on the next console that actually has a little HP behind it though. The one thing I will give Nintendo is game play mechanics. The franchise juggernauts, like Mario Kart, Super Mario galaxy, Zelda, etc ALWAYS deliver an A+ gaming experience. If anything MS Kinect is the next step in the evolution of the controller. It's playing the game without the device in your hand and the sneak peeks at the software already show the potential is there to create some really fun casual games. MS plans to carry that over to the next console as well. (that tech is where you will start seeing some real Iron Man basement type stuff with motion) I hate even trying to pick a "WINNER" out of these things because I think you have to look at the overall body of work from every company and judge if gamers in general are going to win. Fanbois pick winners, gamers look for the nuggets buried in every platform and see what the year will bring for everyone.
They do still owe us ponies.
SWTOR is instant win though. Bioware always makes great games and they have taken their time with SWTOR. I have a good feeling it will sap alot of STO players thats for sure...
