E3 2010

[Bootaaay]

Anyone see a trend here? Infamous 2, GT 5, Dead Space 2, Portal 2, Motorstorm 3, Killzone 3, Gears of War 3....

What the feck? I thought expo's were for new stuff... They're taking the mic...

Yet no one moans when Mario or Zelda or Metroid get another update, despite Nintendo running those franchises non-stop since the late 80's. There's certainly a lot of sequels at this year's e3 but I don't see how that's a problem when the games look so good.

i do have a problem with mario and zelda too. I'm really getting bored of playing the same games all the time. I'm a bit worried about the lack of new stuff coming out. Genuinely new.

Okay, you are a very good troll engine. Happy now?

Mario games evolve a lot. Mario Galaxy is very different form Mario 64. Galaxy 2 is a sequel, but then again Mario Galaxy has not overstayed it's welcome yet, and form what I read from reviews 2 is even better than 1.

But yeah Zelda really really really needs to evolve. New items and new puzzles please. I'm bored of the same puzzle again and again.

It really isn't much about if a gameis good or not. I mean if a game is great... does making an entirely same game with different levels make it another great game? Well yeah but for how long can they milk the franchise... cos that's all they do really... These days all they do is milk to the death

THAT's how you prove I'm wrong?

Anyway, you guys know who I'm looking forward to getting some information out of? Capcom. They were (understandably) quiet yesterday. I'm hoping for some goodies today.

There are an awful lot of sequels. And people always talk about the sequels, but there are some new IPs that look really cool this year. Check out the trailers for Project Dust, Journey, and Child of Eden though.

Project Dust comes from Eric Chahi, who made Another World
Journey comes from Jenova Chen, who made flOwer.
Child of Eden comes from Tetsuya Mizuguchi, who made Rez

EDIT: Oh, and check out Scott Pilgrim VS The World

Steam on PS3. I think that's worth bragging about. In fact, I'd say that's my favorite news of E3.

My understanding was that it's just Steam Cloud support, not actual Steam on PS3.

Portal 2 is nice, but no matter how many extras and bonuses it has, it not a PS3 exclusive. So what are they bragging about?

They're bragging about finally getting Valve to develop for the PS3, and presumably this was only made possible by Sony allowing Valve some level of Steam integration (something Microsoft would never agree to).

Personally, i'm really excited about Infamous 2 and Motorstorm 3, plus GT5 looks amazing. Also, can't wait to get my hands on Dead Space 2 and thatgamecompany's (devs of flOw & Flower) new title 'Journey'; http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=398445

Steam is a big deal, that's true, but it's not something I've ever used or had an interest in. So the annoucement made no impact on me. As for Valve developing for the PS3, didn't the PS3 already get a port of The Orange Box? I know Valve didn't work on the port and it reportedly wasn't good, but The Orange Box is STILL a Valve game.

So yeah, the Valve annoucements didn't wow me, though I am looking forward to playing Portal 2 and Gabe was pretty entertaining.

If Steam on the PS3 means you can install the PS3 version of Steam games you own, well that would be awesome - Atleast Source engine games. Meaning I could buy the PC version of the Orange box and get it both on the PC and PS3. Will it happen, no, same with cross platform play.
