E3 2012 Press Conferences

[Hadrian]

For whatever reason Sony & Microsoft do really dull conferences, it's not like they don't have great games to show its just the way they show them. However I do still watch them for the odd "and I'm proud to announce..." moment where the audience doesn't give a slightest fuck and also when someone makes a joke and they wait for laughs that never come.

Nintendo ones are "ooh cool yeah" followed by "don't care don't care" and then they end with "fuck yeah"...its like watching The Walking Dead.

I don't think any of you (who owns a Wii, of course) has played Wii Sports lately?

No we've moved on to Wii Sports Resort, which I played yesterday.

Just a FYI: Nintendo has two streams. One on the presentation and the other for software.

Right in the middle of exams, like always. Thanks E3 for my yearly fucked up grades!

Couldn't be more true...

E3 happens during my summer vacation.

However the hype and anticipation before it makes my exams flunk. :/

Nintendo also has a live stream for software showcase, do not miss!

Just another 6/7 days!

I really want Nintendo and Sony to show some top class games for the 3DS/Vita.

Really excited to see the Wii U as most people are to see what Nintendo has up their sleeves with this console. At the moment it just seems like a Wii HD trying to compete with current gen.

it goes so quickly doesn't it? btw does anyone know the UK times for sony microsoft and nintendo E3? thanks in advance., if i miss them i will prob watch them later as i am short for time as it is anyway.

I thought we moved on to Red Steel 2 aka the best motion controlled game ever made.

But I guess I'm excited in general this year with all the "new console" rumors. Even if it's a "semi-reveal" like Nintendo did with the Wii U last year and Sony when the Vita was just a "NGP", it'd be nice to get some info on new consoles. Although it could end up being another Wii U fiasco where it's nothing but rumor this, rumor that for a year.

I'm mainly looking forward to some Vita news and new Xbox/Playstation if they're even there. Software wise, I dunno. Metal Gear Rising looks promising, maybe MGS5, some Vita games, anything from Valve, I don't really know. Maybe some more info on last year's E3 games. I mean what ever happened to Brothers in Arms: Furious Four? Or Fortnite? Well I was only interested in Fortnite but you know what I mean. There was also another co-op shooter futuristic game that I forget the name of but had a reveal.

well, GBAtemp's IRC channels are always open

Yeah, but everyone is always idling. No one really chats except 1 or 2 people at a time.

I wasn't aware that that was a sports game.

Anyway you're wrong, Star Wars Kinect man...best thing related to Star Wars ever.

That's why you need to visit the Shoutbox!

 

[Hadrian]

Yeah I think last year I stuck to the shoutbox, IRC seems too much of a clusterfuck at E3 times.

It should be pretty active at E3.

Oh and IRC > Current Shoutbox.

 

[tatripp]

I think this is the year that they finally announce the dreamcast 2. Anyone with me?

It was already released in 2001, only it was called Xbox and Microsoft manufactured it.

Seriously if there was ever was a DC2 it would have been what MS did and also Sega supported it better and gave it better games that GC/PS2 example Jet Set Radio Future, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Crazy Taxi 3, Outrun, Otogi series & Shenmue III...had they not cancelled it. It's also been by mention many time by those in Sega & MS that there were plans for the Xbox to be backwards compatible with DC games as well.
