Llyranor Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) Okay, I just stayed up and watched the Microsoft Conference from the new E3. Overall, it was... erm, okay. Nothing really groundbreaking was announced. What I remember: Gears of War for PC / XP + Vista. Shocking news. Mass Effect trailer had nice music. Lost Odyssey trailer was promising. Interested to see how the gameplay will turn out. No new footage for GTA4, but apparently the prev two trailers were from the 360 version. RE5 short teaser. Not much shown. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/21466.html Also, MGS4 on 360. Assassin's Creed demonstration was nice enough. Nice music during the chase scene. Live Action Halo was ROFLASKGJSAKGHASKJGAS New Halo-themed 360 is ROFLASKGJSAKGHASKJGASer. Halo 3 trailer was pretty cool. Nice orchestrated music. Just freaking announce online coop already, jerks. Trailer here http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?ty...k=ethreeblowout Disney + other studios will offer movies on Marketplace. Available tonight. Also, Canada + Europe. Sonic 1 and Golden Axe coming out on Live Arcade tonight. Golden Axe is actually pretty awesome news. Online coop + a decent pricetag means Nick and me start hacking and slashing away. Ultimately, they focused too much on games coming out this year. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but just means no huge announcements. Not actually from the conference, but apparently Blue Dragon demo is out on Marketplace. One of these announcements may or may not be false.

Meshugger Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 "MGS4 on Xbox360" i bet that one is a false announcement. The Xbots would've imploded the Internet in self-satisfaction and joy.

Pop Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Joystiq says nothing, so it didn't happen. they says Mass Effect due November. Grrr. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
Meshugger Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Heh, i was actually suprised that Mass Effect actually managed to stay within 2007. And right before christmas when i get my taxreturn. Win-win situation (unless the game itself turns out to be very crappy).

Calax Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 "MGS4 on Xbox360" i bet that one is a false announcement. The Xbots would've imploded the Internet in self-satisfaction and joy. actually it was looking like it was going for the Box a while ago (Sony isn't willing to pay for exclusives.) Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Xard Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 **** this. Llyr you jerk, I believed you! :sad: Still no MGS4 for Xbox =/ How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them. - OverPowered Godzilla (OPG)
Tale Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 You forgot that 360 is getting GTA4 and Madden 08 as exclusives. I don't care for either, but it's sure to boost their US installbase even more. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Hell Kitty Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 ^ GTA4 isn't exclusive, but it is getting exclusive content on Live.
Musopticon? Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 The Halo trailers were decent. I don't understand exclusives anymore. Then again, I want my Heavenly Sword for 360. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
Tale Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 What's so exciting about Heavenly Sword, anyway? "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Pop Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Dunno if this is so related to E3, but new RE5 trailer. Looks like they supplanted South America for Africa, I guess. Faces look good. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
Musopticon? Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 What's so exciting about Heavenly Sword, anyway? Big swords. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Tale Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I'm sure the next DOA Beach Volleyball will be on 360 for you guys. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Musopticon? Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) Chicks+big swords=Tale does not like Does not compute. At all. Golden Axe has the potential to be a real time-eater. I must've spent dozens of hours hacking away on Amiga 500, hehh heh. Edited July 11, 2007 by Musopticon? kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Sand Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 My main beef with the X Box 360 is all the technical issues it has with the red ring of death. Spending $400+ on a console that will die rather quickly is a waste of time and money.

Volourn Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Yeha; but they give ya a 3 year warranty. No worries. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Tale Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) Yeha; but they give ya a 3 year warranty. No worries. That doesn't mean "no worries." A dead console is still a waste of time sending it in and waiting to get it back. And a dead console 3 years from now is still a bad thing for those of us who like our consoles lasting longer than that. Eventually they'll get it fixed, but I won't be buying before I'm certain it'll last. Or they have a game I'm willing to risk it for.

Sand Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I prefer a stable and dependable platform that works over something that doesn't.

Musopticon? Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Then you shouldn't be playing on PC rofl. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Hurlshort Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I prefer a stable and dependable platform that works over something that doesn't. Heh, that's like preferring a woman who doesn't nag. They don't exist!
Tale Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Then you shouldn't be playing on PC rofl. hehe I've gone through 3 graphics cards in the past 3 years. Luckily all of them under sufficient warranty. I grasp the point. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Sand Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) With the exception of the new motherboard I bought I have never had any technical problems concerning hardware and with using Vista I haven't had any software problems either. Before this the only problem I had, technical wise, was Windows ME, but beyond that I have had pretty stable gaming on the PC for years.

Volourn Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 On a differnt topic, ME's new videos are awesome! ME > KOTOR P.S. While it sucks that xbox 360 has major problems - I know as I wa s victim - it still seems to be the new console with the most actual worthwhile games.
