Frightening... moving... yep... it looks like this may be a true silent hill game. Lookign forward to it. I felt bad about never playing SH1 (2,3,4 so far, with 0 ongoing), so i'm happy for the oportunity, even happier that it looks like it may be a polished production! |

Star Wars drama & professional production at it's best. I sure do have a love hate relationship with star wars: on one hand i do complain about it being a shallow black & white universe mostly, on the other i've been through countless books and even a couple of games set in it. My excuse is that that universe has also had the honor of drawing in some quite otherwise imaginative people... well, i guess i'm just trying to excuse myself for falling in excitement with this vid... making me forget for a moment that this is a MMO :P Great stuff!!! If it wasn't a MMO i'd be all over the idea. Btw, one MMO i'm actually curious about (not that i'll play it, mind you) the one based on Vampire: The Masquerade. I once played a bit of a MUSH in the universe and i thought it had great potential due to the social nature of the story.

Hey! check it out! I've never seen this show before yet it seems quite fun, i like the upbeat mood & playful atmosphere. As for the content: quite neat! I like their reasonings on the value of actual physical controllers. Also i hadn't known about that presentation the no controler driving in Burnout: didn't think it was taht far along. cool!

I'll take this opportunity to recomend AVP 2. It's a PC game from around 2000 I believe, which i won't recomend like many others for the great shooter it is or the "most frightening to play (as a marine)" like a friend insisted (i still root for "Blood" on that one), but for the unique 3 point of view story. It's one of my top 3 contenders of any medium in telling a intertwined overlapping story. The other two are: ... wait for it... guesses? well, Starcraft and ... forgot name... turn based game like Heroes... has 2 great expansions two... okay, it'll come back to me and i'll add it then... if not, remind me?
Edit: yep, it's Disciples 2! Thank you Diana for reminding me! |

Yep... it's final... Nintendo isn't targeting me :P Even Dead space & Resident evil seem monodimensional to me here. Mario being milked... the only thing i find of interest is wii motion plus precision guaranteeing that the next gen (no more than 3 years away? ) is gonna be super fun with precise motion controls. But as long as they're selling well... hey, they don't have to care about me, and the might be the gateway game for some new me being born out there: they might indeed be the new Disney: introducing young minds to quality productions on titles that they can "sell" to their parents until they grow up enough to get onto the more mature stuff :P

The motion controle was inspiring albeit quite rough about the edges. I'm sure some ocmpanies could make it shine by incorporating it into games like Assasin's Creed BUT unless Sony bundels the controlre, and even IF they do... still, the precision was amazing. Other than that Uncharted 2 looks amazingly over the top action with great cinematic moments, while God of War 3 I find is too shallow and lacking both visual shockers & attention to details... sure, i'm seeing it at low res, but i don't care about res, i care about content: a monster turning it's head, a more fluid animation, an ai that cares more, better lighting ... still, with march 2010 as the release it's sure to get more polished ... but...
Other than that... yep, Sony still are pretty good at making a show, but nothing awe inspiring this year IMHO.
PS: the psp is showing surprisingly strong, and a new full featured MGS in 2010 is a nice promise

Can't say i'm too impressed:
- full body control seems like an awesome idea... let's see WHEN and HOW it comes real
- Molineux's char interaction: i suspect it's a very scripted thing they showed letting you guess it's more
- the only game i might be interested in is Alan Wake and even that may turn out to be tons of monsters in a row... but it may contain some nice story moments, though not exaclty my story type
- metal gear on xbox is pretty big i guess...

I've often been in awe how the "ancient" hardware of the ps2 was able to make amazing games work with features where on the PC it required "future hardware"/very expensive cutting edge ones: here are some tricks explained in a reasonably understandable language:
