JaseC said:Valve have never done platform-exclusive DLC before, why would they start now? Not to mention they've already announced the upcoming DLC for all three platforms (PS360 and PC).
Hey You said:Bungie is done.
The Wise Old Man said:E3 is a magical and wondrous time for us all. The bounty of epilepsy bestows its gifts upon us like the double ended hydra of ultimate nullification. This year we once again twitch, spasm, and click our way towards corporate consumerist electronic gamorrah. The check has cleared, the hellhound has been loosed and this is the bright digital future that we have won for ourselves. The dog shall bray under the southern cross and we shall once again know that anything is possible. Hands together around our white glowing boomerangs we are the masters of our own fate. You, friend, wield the poop sock and I will take to arms with the garden hose. Phantom points will shower down all around us and we will be at once drawn in and expelled out of the world. Muted browns and greys give way to bright vibrant colors and then back to browns and greys the year after next. All energy flows according to the whims of the great meme. May we be forever eager and forever dissatisfied this year at E3.

There are games and genres that do not benefit from motion controls.
I wish they'd stop conflating the two.
overcast said:Last years press conference was enough for me. I'm not a big fan of motion control, and the games that I have seen so far do not impress me. We'll see what they show at E3, but I will continue to want to play games with a controller far more than full body motion sensing.
Meh I've had a bit of experience. I won't lie and say I've played the hell out of it. But the tired part comes from the fact that I feel the potential isn't great enough for 2 E3 conferences to be completely devoted to it. Microsoft should focus more on games then this technology. But I realize this thing is selling like hot cakes.Shogun PaiN said:Sounds more to me like you don't have a lot if any experience with Kinect yet and instead are waiting to be wowed before you can think of owning one. More untested and unsure than tired.

not seen it mentioned before
also saw a mentioning of xblox live cloud in this job listing
The set of services making up the Xbox Live cloud is optimized around social, casual and hardcore gaming, and modern entertainment experiences. We're fun. We're social. We're interactive. And, were growing!
I thought they included that with the downloadable Portal for XBLA (don't know if PSN got it).RooMHM said:What was Portal : Lost levels then? /:

Yeah, me too.WrikaWrek said:I'm starting to foresee a very hated E3 presentation.
Angry Fork said:Wow @ how much Kinect stuff is in there. I knew it would be a lot of the conference but it seems like it'll be at least 75% of it. That really sucks.

Domino Theory said:I hope many of those games are Kinect 'supported' and not required, a la Forza 4.

I think he was hinting at big announcements regarding services not exclusive games but I could be completely wrong.Barkley's Justice said:michael pachter says he suspects there will be something big. SO THERE WILL BE SOMETHING BIG.

didnt they start from scratch (i heard its no longer a shooter)?Fjordson said:I totally forgot about XCOM. Definitely interested in seeing more of that.
sweetvar26 said:If much of E3 is about Kinect, then YES. I think it is going to be like that.

Yes, Star Wars for Kinect will officially be unveiled live during the Xbox 360 E3 briefing on Spike. Tune in on June 6 for more.

GAF has hated every MS E3 conference since 2007. It's almost a tradition by now.bj00rn_ said:Well, if that's the "gaf"-consensus then I guess I can look forward to a good E3 from MS
Halo went in a bad RTS and a shittacular anime ways, nothing worse can happen at this point (other than destroying the core FPS series).Zeal said:If Halo goes Kinect in any fucking way, there will be blood.

I love Viva Pinata so much.
Nintendo owned last year's E3, then the 3DS launch came and no one wants the thing. It's totally meaningless.GANGSTERKILLER said:I see to much Kinect! This is SHIT for the hardcore gamer! I want Killer Instinct 3 from Rare. Nintendo will own E3 2011...
Might as well be, but damn did that show rock. The games did no sell well, but atleast there where some gems in there.szaromir said:Nintendo owned last year's E3, then the 3DS launch came and no one wants the thing. It's totally meaningless.
I think it's the other way around, like Kafel said. Though I could be wrong on that. I'm just hoping for anything new. The reveal video/thing they had a while back looked neat.S1kkZ said:didnt they start from scratch (i heard its no longer a shooter)?
Yes, the show was entertaining, especially the video with 3DS, Reggie, Shiggie and Iwata.TheOddOne said:Might as well be, but damn did that show rock. The games did no sell well, but atleast there where some gems in there.
It has been an amazing week in terms of classification leaks, particularly for Microsoft products, but a lot of them don't seem to be for games, but instead applications.
Kinect Me and Kinect Googly Eyes were shown earlier this week, but now Build a Buddy and Bobble Head have all been rated in the past week, all kinds of strange names, none which seem like they could be retail games, or even Xbox Live Arcade titles. There has been talk of a Kinect Fun Lab, but having multiple ratings like this means each of these are a separate downloadable pieces, and not a single "Lab" app.
Applications like Build A Buddy sounds like you could very well make new Avatar-like characters outside of your own, perhaps like the Wii's Mii characters so you can play as a variety of characters without the need to re-skin yourself each time. It would also make players pay for even more Avatar gear.
Bobble Head and Googly Eyes on the other hand I just can't fathom. They just sound like Avatar gear, and even as applications I can't think of how they could change the Avatar experience. What could it all mean? This next week up to E3 is starting to get pretty weird.
