[AstroLad]

damn should have made it a card-based music srpg as i suggested

 

[icecream]

Drums, Guitar... where's the Keyboard, Konami?

 

[Sadist]

Konami is a weird developer. Or is it just me?

 

[DrBo42]

Absolutely pathetic Konami. How big of a market do you think there is for these shitty rock spin offs? Save your money and develop something people actually WANT.

 

[beef3483]

Okay, so when is Capcom's event? And how dissappointing will that one be?

 

[BrodiemanTTR]

lol @ Konami being late and poorly dressed to the party they started

 

[EmCeeGramr]

As a fan of traditional japanese gaming, my involvement with this hobby wanes with every non announcement.

 

[TheChaos]

...I hate you, Konami.

 

[goompapa]

What a miserable line-up.

Stuff we've known about, and an awesome rockin' surprise!

Could have done without the bolded word.
Good luck to Konami trying to sell Rock Revolution.:lol

 

[schuelma]

Okay, so when is Capcom's event? And how dissappointing will that one be?

Capcom's is at the end of May with embargo over the beginning of June. The Capcom guy on the Capcom board has basically said to expect a lot of announcements- I believe he said it will be their biggest show of the year in terms of reveals. I have very high hopes.

 

[HK-47]

Spoiler

Suikoden VI DS please.

hawt

 

[Grecco]

We need a new threat title because of this rocking suprise. :lol

 

[Link]

*sigh*


.....Konami.

 

[Dead Prince]

Ummmmmm Rock Revolution better have dancing and they announce a new dance mat. Thanks.

Since there wasn't any DDR announced.

Publisher Konami kicked off its 2008 Gamers Day yesterday with the announcement of Rock Revolution (PS3, X360, Wii, NDS), a new multi-instrument rhythm title developed by Zoe Mode and slated to arrive this October.

Some Zoe Mode games:

From offices in Brighton, England, our team of 120 staff have developed hit games such as:

*
Dancing With The Stars™
*
Crush™
*
EyeToy® Play Astro Zoo
*
EyeToy® Play Sports
*
SingStar™ (for PlayStation® 2, in Collaboration with Sony London Studio)

 

[Fuu]

What was the point of the embargo?

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Konami has hit a new low.

On a scale of 1 to 10 I'm going to give them a SEGA.

 

[BuddyC]

What a miserable line-up.

Could have done without the bolded word.
Good luck to Konami trying to sell Rock Revolution.:lol

I tried to warn you guys.

 

[duckroll]

What was the point of the embargo?

To play with our feelings, to remind people system wars over nonexistant games is silly, to reflect on how Konami is a shell of its former self? Pick one.

Konami has hit a new low.

On a scale of 1 to 10 I'm going to give them a SEGA.

Wtf? Sega just announced 3 games from Ex-Clover guys! ;_;

I friggn' hope so, for now only Sega delivered with Platinum Games. Sega for crying out loud.

SEGA

 

[Crisis]

meh

edit: wii doesn't use peripherals? lawl

Sweetie, you and me are gonna IMAGINE peripherals.

 

[qirex]

Some Zoe Mode games:

Crush is a great game, one of the best puzzle games of the last few years IMO.

 

[Yoshichan]

Lots of Silent Hill 5 gameplay:

[Y2Kev]

how the fuck could their lineup be so miserable

don't they need money or something

 

[schuelma]

It seems to me like Konami's lineup these days is basically MSG4, a bunch of casual/non-games, sports, with a DS Castlevania thrown in every other year.

 

[Fuu]

( ) All of the above.

Sega's been kind of brilliant lately though!.

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Lost in Blue Wii is from Hudson...Rock Revolution from Zoe Mode...Hellboy, Silent Hill, International Track & Field also all outsourced...

Seems like either you work on PES or on MGS4 at Konami.

 

[Linkup]

Adding in a DDR type pad and a keyboard wouldn't have been a bad idea especially if they actual want with more than just rock, which I'm guess they didn't.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Wtf? Sega just announced 3 games from Ex-Clover guys! ;_;

DAMMIT! I forgot!
Um...um...um

On a scale of 1 to 10 I give Konami the rating of...KONAMI!

Really they are all in a class by themselves this gen.

 

[HK-47]

I feel a great disturbance in the GAF. As if millions of posters suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something awesome has happened.

 

[schuelma]

OMG KONAMI REDEEMED!

DDR 2 FOR WII WITH MII SUPPORT!!!!!!!!

[Y2Kev]

DDR Marginally Better Party didn't fit on the box

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Whoo new MGS4 bundle!

[Jim]

Could have done without the bolded word.

Sarcasm :/ And I figured it would throw you off a bit.

I am pinning all my hopes on Capcom's event and Nintendos E3.

 

[Grecco]

how the fuck could their lineup be so miserable

don't they need money or something

90 percent of the budget went to MGs4 probably

 

[Laurent]

90 percent of the budget went to MGs4 probably

But I thought the product placement was handling a large portion of that budget? :lol

 

[BuddyC]

For all the embargoing, yeah, pretty meh.

I am grateful for embargoes. It gives the press time to get all their coverage and media together, unlike the clusterfuck that was Microsoft's event on Tuesday.
