I think Nintendo won, IMHO. If you dont like what I said then kiss my ass! :P
Im looking forward to playing the Wii U and I was rather impressed. So whenever I can afford it, itll be a must buy to me. I think a $300 price point would be reasonable to start off with and have "Nintendoland"(I also think that looks fun) as a pack-in game. $80 for an extra Gamepad would be a good price for that as well.

I still dont have a 3DS yet. Im surprised Nintendo hasnt made any news about a hardware revision. Thats basically why I havent got one yet because Im afraid that Nintendo will make a new version when I do like with their past handhelds. But who knows what they are thinking…

With Sony and MS, its just business as usual. For XBox 360, Im looking forward to Halo 4 and Gears of War: Judgment and all. I could care less for the glass tablet and Kinect as usual.

For Sony I am looking forward to Last of Us…but its just another one of those "end of the world, Zombie game" that everyone is making these days.
Im also looking forward to Playstation All-stars Battle Royale. Thats about it.

There are others that I look forward to trying/playing but I wont ramble on.

The biggest surprise came today in the form of: Agni's Philosophy a Final Fantasy Real Time Tech Demo. I'm not big on Final Fantasy now days but this trailer was gorgeous.
Wow! That tech demo is incredible... especially when you consider it's running in real-time. Obviously that must be a really high end computer...

OK so here is part three which is the Nintendo E3 press conference this one is going to be really short though

I like the Gamepads design better then the prototype Where it acturally has analog sticks instead of a circle pad. However the main focus for this will be the Wii Controler pad pro. Personally to actually attract hardcore gamers I think it is a good idea to have a controller like that. However before anyone says that the Controller is a rip off of the Xbox controller I want to say that companies rip each other off all the time and they have been doing it since the 80’s. I can argue that the Xbox controller is a rip off of the Sega Dreamcast Controller and I can also say that the Playstation controller is a rip off of the Super Nintendo controller companies do this all the time. But back to the controller it is a great Idea to have it for people that doesn’t want to use the touch screen.

Im not sure if I will get part 4 up tonight with the 3DS conference being tonight so if i can't do it tonight i will have it up tomorrow night.

I live near E3 so I figured I record the exterior since I can't go in, ha ha.



But one place I could go in was the Playstation All Stars room where they had 3 TV's set to test out the game, which you see at the end of the video, which was awesome for me because that is the only thing I care about. Well...that and Sega Racing Transformed but that's inside the convention. [sonicwaiting]

Anyways, my opinions on Playstation All Stars is that it is a Smash Bros. clone, but that is not a bad thing, especially when it's very well made. This game is not slapped on, the game does look like alot of work went into it. Now the gameplay isn't all that, probably because the only instructions are like 3 seconds before the match starts, but from what I played, it has 3 attack modes, you use the right analog to grab opponents, you have your super button, you gotta push the R1 button to grab things as oppose to any attack, and there is a block button. The reason why I say it's not too good is probably because the game is just to test out the mechanics (or I probably suck at the game :$ ), but I did have a good time with the game. It's so cool and it is like Smash Bros. only with more buttons to press.

Looking up the 3DS conference that I missed due to work and even more disappointment. They showed nothing interesting at all again.
They could have cut Nintendoland yesterday and fit this conference in there.

Now i am going to put part 4 up and tommorow will be part 5 and i honestly don't know when i will get to part six because it is going to take a little time to process every annoncment at E3. So with that said here is Part 4 the Nintendo E3 press conference.

Lets start with Pikmen 3. Looks Nice it’s also great that you can turn your pikmen into rocks and launch at walls to break them possible pick up. Then there is Super Mario Bros U I always welcome a Mario game so if I do pick up a wii u I will defiantly pick this up.

While it is nice to see a hardcore Third Party lineup for the Wii U Im fine with Batman Arkham City on the PS3 Thank You very much.

services such as youtube and netflix will be on it. OK no surprise there. I don’t care for just dance 4 or any rythem game so I am going to skip over that.

While they did show off Luigis mansion, Paper Mario Sticker Star and New Super Mario Bros 2 I will discusses that in the next part where I talk about 3DS Games.

Next we have Zombie U. It looks really good and I like how you can use it to see what you would look like as a zombie. I did laugh when I saw reggie’s face turn into a zombie.

Then There is Nintendo Land which appears to be a compilation of mini games set in an amusement park. I don’t know what to make of it honestly.

Overall while they did show some intresting stuff at the conference it’s not enough to convince me to buy the system. I admit I was hoping to here an announcement regarding ether a New Zelda, metroid, Kirby, starfox, or a pokemon game which probably set me up for disappointment. I most likely am going to pick this up but not on day one.

I was hoping to see just 1 new 3ds game. Disappointed, but at least we have confirmation fire emblem will be coming our way for sure, that's something new in a way.

Personally, I found this year to be quite lackluster in terms of new content. Specifically from Nintendo, there was nothing that made me want to buy a Wii U at Launch. The only game that blew me away on the hardware wasn't even at their press conference. That being said, the titles they did show did look pretty good, so I'm sure I'll be picking it up eventually.

Here's the one game that blew me away for the Wii U:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr4D4YZQ9uY

Microsoft started off with the only game that really interested me at all from their showing: Halo 4. Man, that game looks phenomenal. The graphics were gorgeous and the soundtrack was different, but that's a given considering they're going in a new direction. What really intrigued me was how it appears that the game is going in almost a Metroid Prime direction. Now that could be cool.

Sony was my pick for best of the show. Their conference was split in two: AMAZING and AWFUL. I did not need a 20 minute presentation on a Move game. No, I really didn't. Nor did I need a 10 minute talk about some stupid Playstation Mobile. However, that was overcome by The Last of Us, Playstation Allstars, a few Vita games, and Beyond. I'll be getting all of those at launch, without a doubt. God of War was the equivalent of the new Gears game Msft showed off: I didn't give a shit.

All in all, this year was meh. Nothing I didn't really expect, but there was enough there that I know I'll be buying that it was still ok. Oh, and Metal Gear Rising looks insane. <3 Platinum Games.

This the second year I've been watching E3 stuff and I have to it was one of the most disappointment and most uninteresting I wanted to be positive but I found myself nitpick on a lot of thing that were shown especially at Microsoft and Nintendo's press conference nothing exciting the only awesome that was shown at Microsoft was the new South Park game that's it and with Nintendo I was so disappointed that I think I will not buy the Wii U at all no matter what, to me all they show is the potential of the system the games.

I'm excited for the games that were not shown at press conferences like Ni No Kuni but it was already announced to come outside Japan and I realize how much a lot of the new big blockbuster games are not for me even Nintendo can't excite me anymore but I still want a 3ds mostly for Kingdom Hearts.

I'll save my mind on what I've decided about me buying the next gen system and games.

E3 was enjoyable a bit underwhelming but hey when isn't it? I'm still upset however, that we still haven't seen much about Final Fantasy Versus XIII the game looks special.

As i'm currently playing through Shadow of the Colossus again, it made me realize that The Last Guardian was entirely missing from E3, they must have something new to show if they've been developing on it for so long? I really hope Sony isn't throwing away the project, it would be a tremendous loss to the game industry.
