[Thores]

#makeitright?

Okay, Konami.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

I didn't feel very sucked.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Mega64 was great.

Birthday Metatron!

 

[Tallshortman]

I am so glad LOS2 is a different game from the 3DS one and is on PS3.

 

[Dark Schala]

Screw this. I'm going to watch the 2010 conference instead.

I feel awful for the people who woke up at 6 AM.

Looking forward to the ZOE collection, though.

I've never seen a GAF meltdown that was so sad and defeated.

It's not a meltdown if some of it was expected.

 

[badcrumble]

Rising looks like a pile of trash.

It looks infinitely better than the Konami-developed version that was rightfully scrapped.

 

[SentientStone]

Rising looks amazing, did anyone else notice how Raiden's arm was chopped off during the boss battle on the moving train and is pouring blood out of its socket like crazy?

 

[Defunkled]

RISING DEMO WITH ZOE HD COLLECTION FDLKAJFHASDLKFJHAS

Day -1.

 

[Smellycat]

I am done here. I will see you guys after Nintendo's conference.

 

[robot]

i think we can finally stop hyping up Konami press conferences and be thankful we got E3 2010.

Rising looks pretty awesome though. And ZOE Collection.

 

[daffy]

I saw [Released] and laughed.

 

[Akainu]

It looks infinitely better than the Konami-developed version that was rightfully scrapped.

I'll have what he's having. Must be some good shit.

 

[Lijik]

Must see ZOE animation!

This was the only part where I was super interested.


I can name pretty much every game from the 2010 conference. I cant name a damn thing from the 2011 conference, and a week from now the same will go for this. I'll know most of the games since they're all relatively big names, but if you were to ask me "What went down at the Konami 2012 conference" I'd probably just shrug.

Its utterly bizarre that these pre-recorded conferences focus solely on Konami's heavy hitters, yet presents them in the most boring fashion possible.

 

[zroid]

Rising looks like a pile of trash.

it looks like a Platinum game

 

[B.O.O.M]

Not a single surprise? :S

But the trailers for Lords of Shadow 2 and MGR looked good

MetagearRising looks a lot like vanquish with a sword

 

[Salsa]

Mega64 bit was awesome

Oh man, I can't even remember anything from 2011. At all.

Really didn't like the presentation of this very much. Subs would've been more elegant than a dub. This is pre-recorded so they can get away with subs. At least the ZOE part was pretty interesting.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

The only good thing in this eh... "freak show" was teh "Unemployment Of Raiden". It made me smile after looking like a zombie because of staying awake to watch this pile of giant enemy crap.

 

[linko9]

Aight that Mega64 thing was pretty good, better than most of their stuff.

 

[wrowa]

What a waste of time. Rising and Mega 64 was cool, but that's about it. The lack of a Mirror of Fate trailer is utterly disappointing.

 

[RiderKairuu]

Whoa who was that at the end of the LoS2 trailer?

 

[SykoTech]

So basically...Konami presents a Mega64 skit. The rest of the stuff was just a really long ad.

Alrighty then.

Guess I'll rewatch that Tomb Raider trailer...

 

[robertsan21]

Lord of shadows 2. DAY FUCKING !

There is a new CV coming out for 3ds thats was the teaser was most likely

 

[ixix]

I just looked back at the 2010 thread.

June 16, 2010 was a very strange day.

 

[mollipen]

It's funny that you say that—I just thought about the fact that I can even recall Adrenalin Misfits from the 2010 conference. Yes, Konami looked ridiculous during that conference, but it (and the games being shown) at least made an impact.

 

[Damo Yoshi]

It's not a meltdown if some of it was expected.

Kaptain Schala, it's easier to be sad... together~ =)

 

[BocoDragon]

K.. I liked that Mega 64 bit

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

No Contra and No Tak Fuji makes DXB-KNIGHT something something

 

[MidnightScott]

Saving the best for last with Castlevania 3DS I see

 

[PrinceOfApathy]

The music in the Lords of Shadow CG Trailer was amazing. Gabe was looking beautiful, that gave me the chills....

 

[thepotatoman]

No Little king story Vita disappoints me.

 

[Rabbit Clock]

I'm gonna bet money that Contra game they teased last year will never see the light of day again.

Anyways, LOS2 looks like it could be good, I guess.

 

[Fantastical]

Ending of the Mega64 bit made the video.

 

[Gregorn]

Screw this. I'm going to watch the 2010 conference instead.

I feel awful for the people who woke up at 6 AM.

Why? I only woke up half an hour early, staying up until 2am is worse.

 

[Reversed]

Contra... ;__ ;

 

[soultron]

PES: If it's going to be better than FIFA, give me a call.
ZOEHD Cllxn looks amazing in HD. New anime intro video.
MGS Something will be using Fox Engine.
Kojima says, "Buy the MGS games we released again this year!"
Mega64 does another funny bit relating to MGSR

Spoiler

and ZOE.

Castlevania LOS2 looks rad. Alucard?

That's basically all that was in there for me. Really tame. MGSR trailer was good, but it was also featured on GTTV 30 minutes earlier.

 

[MetatronM]

JEHUTY WILL DO KIDS PARTIES

 

[Fraeon]

Oh man, I can't even remember anything from 2011. At all.

All I remember without a cheat sheet is transfarring.

 

[bobbytkc]

Unlike last year, Konami actually has AMAZING things to show this time round. Rising and the new Castlevania really has the potential to be phenomenal.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Rising and ZoE collection both look good, but I was already sold on them.

 

[zroid]

Grrr, that Mirror of Fate tease was awful! nothing but smoke and mirrors. LITERALLY

 

[Dark Schala]

Kaptain Schala, it's easier to be sad... together~ =)

I think it's safe to say that the thread title is rather fitting. :lol

Why? I only woke up half an hour early, staying up until 2am is worse.

Eh, I'm not a morning person in the slightest.

 

[Neiteio]

Fairly entertaining show. It was even interesting seeing the new studio for social games and how in-depth PES has gotten. But the highlights were definitely Revengeance (including the great Mega64 skit) and LoS2. So, do we play as Dracula-fied Gabriel in LoS2, or is the player character the mysterious person with the sword at the end?

 

[NeoUltima]

I am very saddened that LoS2 won't be at E3 besides the CG trailer. I guess they want to focus on MoF for now.

 

[thepotatoman]

Seriously though the ZoE HD comparison and making of vids were really cool, and the Rising and Lords of Shadow 2 trailers were fun and lengthy. Not exactly heavy or hard hitting content, but meh ill take what I can get. Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft aren't getting away so easily though.

 

[Krev]

The whole thing was pretty boring. Lots of stuff we already knew about or had seen. The Mega64 video was pretty meh, but Jehuty made it.

 

[trinest]

No Little king story Vita disappoints me.

IT's already announced for America like a few days ago. (Konami isn't handling the American version).

 

[Lijik]

Just realized that this conference is half the length of last years.
I imagine next year will just a mention of PES and whatever Kojima wants to talk about for a few minutes before the Mega64 skit.
2014 will be just the mega64 skit
2015 will be a trailer for the mega64 skit
