Games I really want: Wii: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Dragon Ball Z Budokai: Tenkaichi 2 Call of Duty 3 Resident Evil 6 Super Paper Mario Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Crystal Bearers (Only if I can connect to others for free) PS3: Final Fantasy XIII Final Fantasy Versus XIII MGS4 Tekken 6 NBA 2k7 X360: Halo 3 NBA 2k7 Blue Dragon In general I want: Internet service to browse the web if I can. Keyboard or Mic to speak to others online when playing. Be able to change the music in-game with my own music. RPG's!!! NBA 2k7!!! DVD is a plus. My problem with Wii, is that when I play it, there's no "cool factor". I don't feel cool after playing Zelda or Super Mario. Everyone feels cool when they play Halo, Tekken, FF, or 2k7. My other problem is that I don't care much for the Virtual Console... I've basically DL'ed every ROM there is (don't tell anyone) on my computer and played them. Not fun anymore. BTW, there's no blood/gore in Red Steel... uncool.
Too bad Tekken looked like crap during the PS3 conference. I thought maybe Namco was just trying to sabotage the Xbox 360 considering their previous next-gen efforts, but maybe they just suck at making next-gen games. Either that, or Tekken will look a lot better next time we see it...hopefully.
I don't believe they announced RE6...in fact, I don't think RE5 has been seen at E3 either. We might see more later. I saw a rumor that the Resident Evil game for the Wii would be playable tomorrow.
PS3: (unimpressed) Mario, what you just said was powerfully uncool. Mario: You know what the song says: "It's hip to be square". XBOX: That song is so lame. Mario: So lame that it's... cool? PS3 and XBOX: (dismissive) No. Zelda: Am I cool, kids? PS3 and XBOX: (dismissive) No. Zelda: Good. I'm glad. And that's what makes me cool: not caring. Right? PS3 and XBOX: (dismissive) No. Zelda: (frustrated) Well, how the hell do you be cool? I feel like we've tried everything here. Mario: Wait, Zelda. Maybe if you're truly cool, you don't need to be told you're cool. PS3: (puzzled, uncertain) Well, sure you do. XBOX: (bewildered) How else would you know?
Yeah, I gotta say...Lost Planet was damn impressive. Really felt like I was in a sci fi movie. I think the difficulty was gimped for demo purposes, but beyond that I was REALLY enjoying it. Killing huge, Starship Troopers like aliens was a blast, but when I started picking up various weapons, could use a mech, and could PULL WEAPONS off the mech...man. I was loving it. Those of you with Live and a 360, you should check it ou.
I'm not even completely sure you could call it RE5. I'm guessing it will be a non-numbered Resident Evil game, like Resident Evil: _____. Kind of like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles or the Dragon Quest game for the Wii (forgot its exact name). That's not to say that Capcom won't put as much effort into it as a numbered RE game though. IIRC, Square-Enix has the main Dragon Quest team working on the DQ game for the Wii.
So far it looks like the Wii for me. I find myself not playing as much as I used to and I don't feel like paying a grand (after games and extra controllers, etc) for the Sony. Wii is priced right for me. Can't wait to play baseball, golf, tennis, etc on that controller.
So...Grand Theft Auto IV. No longer just a Playstation exclusive. Am I understanding this right then? Simultaneous release for 360 and PS3. Excellent.
agreed. i already have the 360 but the wii is cheap enough that i can justify having two systems. i see no reason to shell out nearly 900 bucks for another one. i thought nintendo was crazy but man they really seem to have it going now.
I'll shell out whatever for the loaded PS3... I did it for both other ones... they still work fine. And I can play retro games on the 3->2->1... as needed. 3 tv's of Sony simultaneously in my house... I already have 1 Playstation, and 2 PS2's hooked up as we speak... (great for a house full of geeks!) and an old Sega Genesis, and Atari 2600 on standby... Nintendo? I sold the NES I had long ago.... Sonic kicked Mario's butt IMO, and I grew up.
i played both missions.. you think this is better than GRAW?? I think it maybe! it so dirt easy to play and the action and special effects are unrelenting! only 300meg down load. capcom rules!
A different way to play with your Wii: Nintendo said there would be a "cradle" a while back. A classic controller that you can slide the Wii-mote into and use it for the classic games and ports that don't bother to use the Wii-mote. Looks like this will just be a standard controller that you plug into the Wii, though I imagine most Nintendo fans would just stick with their Cube controllers. This looks like they crossed the Super NES controll with the PS2 dual shock.
Correct. Although I believe Rockstar is supposed to be giving Microsoft exclusive content, whatever that means. The funny thing was that Microsoft announced it like it was an exclusive, so everyone was going a little crazy, at least for the few minutes before Rockstar sent out their PR report listing both consoles. I need to find that picture of Peter Moore with the GTAIV tatoo. BTW, the MGS4 15 minute trailer is finally up on Konami's site: http://www.konami.jp/kojima_pro/e3_2006/ There's also some download links out there, like this one (file split into two): http://download.yousendit.com/69AD1AAE5D77FB85 http://download.yousendit.com/7358826C5408D1D4
