E3 2011

edited June 2011 in Video Games
Some things that have caught my eye so far: Mass Effect 3 voice recognition, a new SSX game, and... Minecraft for Kinect?

  • Microsoft couldn't be more boring. All they showed was multi-platform games, kinect titles, and Halo 4. Sony will at least have some Team ICO games to show off, so that might be worth it, and Nintendo should have new hardware to show off but that probably won't be coming out for 6 - 18 months.

    I don't know if E3 is really relevant anymore. It just pressures companies to show off games that aren't ready yet.

    The group that Bioware works with to make Star Wars:The Old Republic cinematic videos has impressed me. There was a new video released for E3 2011:

    SW:TOR - The Return

    What Nintendo should be doing instead is giving us some better reasons to buy a 3DS.

    Fucking hell, can they just make a full release movie already? (sans 3D plox)
  • Battlefield 3 is just pure eye-sex. There was definitely some lighting on particles in some of those shots, and if the gameplay follows the model set by Battlefield Bad Company 2 than it will be fantastic; BFBC2 is my favourite tactical shooter... ever, I think.
  • Oh man. New co-op Rayman game in the style of Rayman 1. Not that I wouldn't welcome a new 3D Rayman game, since Rayman 3 was actually pretty good, but this looks just wonderful.

    I'm more interested to see how they handle the PSN fiasco than anything else. Though Project Big Kitty trailers will be welcome.
  • I just want to see Nintendo show off their new machine with demo's of all their first party games running in 1080P. I predict they will look sexy.

    Then, I can cry while I have to wait a year to get my hands on it.

    My guess is they ignore it completely.
  • I think the hidden gem so far is Insomniac Games' OverStrike.

    How is that a hidden gem? Did that video even show any actual gameplay? Looks like Borderlands with characters to me.

    Nothing wrong with that :-p

    Sony's press conference is officially not stupid despite the stupidity of just about, well, everything else.
  • I almost shed a tear watching the Battlefield 3 footage. DICE's talent with visuals and audio is incredible.

    No, but it's clearly not a hidden gem.

    I know it has no gameplay, but I think it has a lot of potential. And as something that I knew nothing about until now, I'm very interested it keeping an eye on it now.

    This doesn't even make sense. Look at the SWTOR trailers and the actual game. Completely different.

    I'm excited because it looks like a developer continuing to do what it is good at doing, unlike the recent Band of Brothers 4 announcement...

    Crappy games!

    SLY 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    NGP is...PSVita!

    PSVita has a touch screen, and it's SO better than a DS/iPhone. It also has Sixaxis, this AWESOME NEW TECHNOLOGY.

  • I only know NGP = Next Generation Portable
  • Sly stands for nothing. It's a forth Sly Cooper game.
  • Playstation 3D TV that has polarising glasses so that two people can play on the one TV at the same time.. yet see a COMPLETELY a different image? That's.. pretty crazy.

    Crazy expensive.
  • More Halo. So underwhelming.

    I'm more excited about the PSVita, which has the perfect price point.

    Oh yeah, forgot that. It's cool, but Sony has now announced the cheapest 3D TV at $500, plus another $70 for an extra pair of glasses, PLUS a game that supports the feature. There are plenty of games I'd love it on, but until they announce once I care about, the feature is just a cool gimmick.

    And yet people complained about the 3DS at that price...*Sigh.*
    It's just as pretty, and has better features imo.

    Yeah :(
    But if you consider that two people can play, thats like having TWO TV's man! Just have to play the same game... :/

    How the hell is Livin la Vida only $250? That seems quite reasonable.

    whichever system, 3DS or La Vida Loca gets 3 "must have" games first, wins my money.

    Although Paper Mario would probably just do it...
  • I like the polarizing screen feature. I cant wait until that technology becomes standard on all TV's.
