What's Your Favorite/Favourite from E3

[Wreckon Dracgon]

So as E3 enters day three I'm sure like me you all have been glued to the television, Gamespot, and IGN for all the awesome trailers, clips and press conferences. So now that the bulk of Microsoft's presentations are done, what's got you most excited, or what gets your vote for best at show.

For me it would be...


Trailer - Too Human
It's just 7 minutes of pure joy.

In Game Footage - Call of Duty 4
When the lights go out and they all hit the night vision and you see nothing but a dance of green lasers and sparks from the guns it just gives you chills.

Demo - Timeshift
Not that we'll get to play it anytime soon but the demo just looked kick ass.
Assassin's Creed would have won but the demo was far too glitchy. Rock Band was also nice to see in action but Peter Moore should never be on a Guitar again.

Surprise - Scene It
Besides being a riot to play with a bunch of family and friends this game should be great. It comes with four special controllers and the game for only $60. Plus the achievements could be a real treat.

Disappointment - Fable 2
Yes the screen shots look amazing but give me some gameplay footage. I must rule Albion.

Those are my thoughts... what are yours? Although everything I just said is written in stone and irrefutable *YOU WILL AGREE*

[Comon ST]

Trailer - Halo 3
It was completely amazing seeing the stuff that they had showed us.

Trailer Runner Up - Fracture
This game looks amazing, but it didn't live up to the hype Ive seen.

In Game Footage - Assassin's Creed
Truly, Truly Amazing. The game looks brilliant.

Demo - Assassin's Creed
Truly, Truly Amazing.

Surprise - Resident Evil 5
Since they missed E3 last year, I thought they would also missed it this year, but the brought a trailer with them. Wooh!

Disappointment - Splinter Cell: Conviction
Absolutly no information has come up on this game, which makes me sad >.>

Disappointment Runner Up - Haze
Possible PS3 exclusive? I hope ******* not.

[Clipse 2]

Trailer - Halo 3
The single player footaged looked good, but nothing to hang over Halo 2's head. My favorite trailer was actually the live action/CGI Halo trailer. It was just awesome seeing the Warthogs on the assembly line, helmets being forged, and solders getting ready. I know some of you will think I'm crazy but I really liked it.

In Game Footage - Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
How cool is it to wear an actual guille suit crawling on the ground? I don't know but it looks cool in this game.

Demo - Assassin's Creed
I'm not familiar with Assassin's Creed but this game looked great, easy game play, and seemed very fluid.

Surprise - Nintendo Wii Zapper
Yes I know we're in the 360 related forum, but dammit its the zapper man. This could very well change the course of how we play FPS games and not to mention the possibility of a classic returning to our televisions (DUCK HUNT).


Disappointment - 5 new chapters of Gears of War on the PC[/U]
This kind of pissed me off, Gears is a great game and I can understand it coming to the PC, but with new content attached I feel like Epic took my money and screwed me over royally. Had Cliffy B would of said its DLC soon for the 360 I'd be ok with it, but he didn't and now he's biting the hand that feeds him. Shame.

Things I liked:

Resident Evil 5
Simply awesome looking. I think it was a great idea to take it to Africa and those opening shots of the guy on the mega phone and the dudes with the machetes and sickles reminded me a little of Black Hawk Down which is in no way bad. There was absolutely nothing about that trailer I didn't like. Easily the best moment of the Microsoft Press Conference.

Lost Odyssey
The graphics look VERY much improved (even if it did look pretty good before) and the art style is looking a little more interesting than what we have seen previously in the trailers.

Call of Duty 4
Not only was the demo fantabulous and the game is looking incredible considering it's still pre-alpha apparently, but the announcement of the 360 open beta was the icing on the cake. It's probably just my nature but I am about 100 fold more excited for COD4 than Halo 3. Infinity Ward's engine is easily the best looking on consoles since UE3 and might even look better in some regards (lighting).


Things I didn't like:

Microsoft's Press Conference
Nothing we haven't seen and their surprises were ass. Fucking Scene It? Sorry, I don't give a flippin' shit about that. Absolutely nothing new on Fable 2 or Alan Wake is inexcusable and honestly I was expecting Ninja Gaiden 2 to be announced finally. Microsoft dropped the ball almost as badly as Nintendo.

Assassin's Creed
The matrix code around characters looks retarded, the demo was buggy as shit and it looks like they have a ways to go before shipping that game. I'm wondering if between it's state and the glut of games this fall AC doesn't slip to early 2008.

Too Human
First of all, by MS not talking about it at the press conference, it's obvious it's slipped to 2008. Strike one. Secondly, that video was just lacking something. I liked the vibe of it until the big meat-grinder robot showed up. It's starting to seem like that all the Norse mythology stuff is just tacked on and that's really the thing about Too Human that interested me. Well that and it's a Silicon Knights game.

Oh and Haze & UT3 aren't PS3 exclusives, they are just exclusive to the PS3 until next year which makes sense. Not many FPSs are stupid enough to go head to head with Halo on an Xbox platform no matter how different they are. They'll make their way to 360 just about the time people are starting to get sick and tired of Halo and want some variety. Smart call on Epic & Ubisoft's part.

Oh and easily the coolest trailer at E3 was MGS4 yet again. The beginning was pretty 'meh' but the end fight between Vamp and Raiden totally saved it, even if it was entirely over the top. That trailer combined with all the pre-E3 cockteasing that MGS4 might be on it's way to 360 only made it sting even worse when it was again reaffirmed that it's PS3 exclusive. All of a sudden that $100 price drop is starting to sound mighty good. Here's hoping Christmas 2007 is another bust for PS3 because if it is, I think Konami might not have a choice anymore and may HAVE to port MGS4 just to turn a profit.

Being the rebel that I am, I will use my own system.

Mango - Lost Odyssey footage. Way back when I first caught a glimse of it I thought it looked like a bigger NNN, but with one character. Now I have seen some ingame footage it looks pretty good, very Final Fantasy if not better.

Pomegranate - Guitar Hero 3. It looks pretty good, new graphics and you get to play against/as Slash! The only worrying part is whether it will sell on it's own without needing to buy a controller and if you can use the GH2 controller.

Tomato - Gears of War on PC. Cliffy B giving a big 'F. You' to 360 owners, no Brumak battling for us =(

Banana - Rock Band. Looks a bit crap, Pete also managed to pause it twice so the controller doesn't appear to work very well and NO COLOURED BUTTONS!

Kumquat - Lots of strange statistics about the Xbox Live Marketplace that anyone outside of the US will never gain any benefit from.

[Conker Rules All]

i loved the halo 3 videos and defineatly the blue dragon demo (its awesome) but i got the devil may cry picture pack because it simply looks awesome and can you guys wait for ThE BeE GaMe

[zOwnerofallz]

So as E3 enters day three I'm sure like me you all have been glued to the television, Gamespot, and IGN for all the awesome trailers, clips and press conferences

Not us all, I haven't payed attention to any of it

[deathbypig37x]

Well, with all the negative Nancy's...let me be the first Positive Paul. :)

I think that, despite what some of you are saying, that the Microsoft Conference was amazing. The people who were speaking at the conference rarely stuttered, and knew what they were talking about. The Sony Conference speakers were sounding timid, and unsure of what they were saying...I'd say that Microsoft has 2007, hook, line, and sinker. Without a doubt, their incredible success this year will prepare into the first quarter, if not the second quarter of 2008. However, Sony has a better line up then anyone else for 2008. Nintendo was just an array of neat, colorful sprinkles.

Best trailer you ask? Halo 3. The live-action video was okay, but it seemed a WHOLE lot like a 90's action movie, but with better visual and effects...However, the campaign footage was just jaw-dropping, eye-openeing and just pwn-facing. I mean, wow. I REALLY, and truly disagree with you Clipse 2, the campaign footage looked something indeed to hold over Halo 2's head.
Biggest disappoint? Well, other than not being able to go, I'd say that the Naruto game was MY largest disappointment. I don't know how Peter Moore found out that it's the number one show for boys 8-14, but I don't want to know...(And he's not even a catholic priest lol)
I'd say the best demo was the Assassin's Creed demo, looked tight.
My favorite trailer, rinner-up would have to be Mass Effect. I can't wait for that one...

Best hardware announcement:
Halo 3 edition Xbox 360
From what I remember, they said that it was a 360 elite, but with a default hard drive.

[Rand al Thor 19]

By far the most impressive thing about E3 is Call of Duty 4. Nothing else even comes close.

[The Wicker Man]

Has Capcom not show Talisman or any of their XBLA games yet? I am really looking forward to that one.

[Bluntman428]

Trailer - Too Human

Just plain awesome, from beginning to end.

In Game Footage - Call of Duty 4

Words can't even describe how amazing this game's going to be.

Demo - Rock Band

Peter Moore has no place picking up the axe, ever, under any circumstances. But the game looks like a blast, and it's definitely on the top of my must buy list.

Surprise - Bee Game

I was just surprised they actually took the time to show this garbage.

Disappointment - Blue Dragon

I was really let down by the demo. Something about the graphics just isn't as fluid as it looked in the screenshots. The characters look like plastic dolls, and I didn't find the combat that interesting.

[jarhead1990]

Halo 3 & COD4 along with Left 4 dead.

[MASTERCHEAT]

My favorites were:

Trailer: Halo 3
I am a big fan for halo 3 and I was happy for campaign.
Game footage: Call of Duty 4
I was dissappointed at CoD 3, but CoD 4 rocks
Demo: Assassin's Creed
At first this game didn't make me excited, but it is now
Surprise: Resident 5
I read a article of this game in 05 and now the game looks great!
Disappointment: The New PSP
For all the Sony fans for reading this, sorry but I hate the PSP. The new PSP is not better the the DS Lite. I own the PSP and didn't suit me. It might take a few great games to beat the DS.
Funniest moment:
I laughed that Peter Moore was playing Rock Band.
