Okay, I need a link where I can download the big E3 press-conferences. Or at least watch them in their entirety.

I could see a working God of War movie if Kratos starts out as the family man he was before the events of the first game.

Well, it's official. I'm buying Kinect.

I read about ESPN on Xbox Live and passed out.

Seriously, is Microsoft trying to keep me in my house for life?

Very cool, but something tells me it won't work nearly that well. At least, not right off the bat.

I think it's just the first step into a whole new era of gaming. So it'll need a good 10 years of tweaking before it's actually as intuitive and precise as trailers like that show.

I'll let you know how awesome it is when I get it.

Oh I'm sure it'll be freaking awesome.

All I'm saying is I think this is the first (small) step towards, well, virtual reality gaming. Or at least some new level of immersion in games.

Rayman 2, on the Dreamcast, is my favorite platformer of all time. Just a gorgeous game.

Project Dust - cool new god-game from Out of This World creator Eric Chahi

there's also a sequel to Contra Hard Corps called Hard Corps: Uprising with beautiful sprite work by Arc Sys, same developers of Blazblue.



And a new action game from Strider creator coming from Square Enix called Moon Diver, which looks like a 4 player strider game.

AND the Scott Pilgrim videogame by sprite god Paul Robertson

All this and Ancel's new 2D Rayman... is it me or this year PSN/Live games are more interesting than most full price releases?

[Acapelli]

kinect and move look stupid

i hope they both fail

[bac0n]

Gotta say, the new keytar peripheral that's shipping with Rock Band 3 might just get me to finally break down and buy the game when it comes out.

[Morris Schæffer]

Test Drive Unlimited 2 has the Aston Martin One-77! Awesome

Does anyone know what city is the new True Crime game set in?

A google search led me to Hong Kong.

[number8]

That is fantastic.

I'll say it right now. I've always liked the True Crime games more than GTA. I'm interested to know how different the new one is going to be.

[Morris Schæffer]

Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 looks incredible!

Some of those Kinect videos/demos/games are expectedly basic, but I can see how it might bring images and player into a far more intimate realm. Gran Turismo has always been about racing, but also about an undeniable love for cars in general. Well, seeing the F458 Italia Microsoft demo was really cool with the guy just walking around the car, approaching it, peering into the engine etc... It felt appropriately up close and personal. And then the guy stepped into the (massively detailed) cockpit and started peering around. Very very neat.

Now you too can see what it's like to be the lamest member of a band!

'Twas a joke! I'm an electronic music fan.

saints row>all

have you tried the new yakuza game? the demo was really fun

With the arrival of all these open world games where you can explore the future or the past and run across the tops of buildings and whatnot, driving a car in a regular city in GTA has lost some appeal.
