Now for the SE guessing game

Quote:
Square Enix USA, perhaps taking a hint from all of Square Enix Japan’s Twitter talk, is teasing an unannounced game.

“Oh and working on stuff for an unannounced game,” Sonia Im, Assistant Director of Public Relations at Square Enix tweeted. “Think people are going to be shocked and stoked ”

Shocked and stoked? Xenogears 2 would fit that description for me, but I’ll curb my expectations now. There are a ton of games Square Enix USA could announce for North America like Nanashi no Game and The 3rd Birthday. None of those would be “shocking” though. Perhaps, this is something brand new.

Before you post your guess in the comments remember Square Enix owns Eidos. Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, and Kane & Lynch 2, those are all Square Enix properties.

To be fair people say one of those things about almost every sequel made for any game.

I mean, it is a pretty fine line to walk.

Which was kind of the point.

No matter what people do, it will hardly ever live up to the expectations of everyone.

I just hope it actually looks like something they've spent 4 years on

The "Unannounced Titles" section will probably include previously mentioned titles like H.A.W.X. 2, Just Dance 2, Dance On Broadway, Raving Rabbids: Travel In Time, and that new fitness game.

Figured, spruce this thread up with random questions until e3, maybe.

So with e3 in just 2 weeks now, what do you expect Microsoft to announce?

I ask because going into e3, we know about the next Halo, the next Gears of War, the next Call of Duty, and those are arguably, MS' biggest franchises this gen.

Will the focus mainly be on Project Natal?

I don't keep track of MS or Sony.

For Nintendo, I'm slowly starting to give up hope on Pikmin 3 and some other semi-announced games (Kid Icarus?).

For Nintendo, the presentation will probably be:

15 minutes of how succesful Wii and DS have been. (They show some good new games like SMG2, MH3, Sin and Punishment...)
15-20 minutes of 3DS.
20 minutes of new games for Wii and DS.
5 minutes of Zelda.

Rockstar to not show any new games during e3.
Puts a minor damper on my e3 2010 will show the reveal of GTA V.

Epic Mickey

The Wii-exclusive Epic Mickey may be seeing a graphics overhaul due to complaints from fans. The French site GameKyo (via CVG) reports that we'll see a new visual style unveiled at E3. Disney sent word that it "doesn't comment on speculation," but if the rumor is true we'll know in only two short weeks anyway.

The apparent reason for the change is the disparity between concept artwork and screenshots. Fans have felt the game could more closely imitate the stylized art. The developers may be struggling a bit to imitate the style using the more limited power of the Wii, but if the rumor pans out we'll see at E3 how well they've managed to pull it off.

Epic Mickey better adopt that epic concept art style... The screenshots so far are to puke over.

Activision has sent a mail over, announcing that its senior management and Bobby Kotick will be giving a corporate presentation to analysts during E3.

The presentation will be broadcast over the net, and will go live on Monday, June 14, at around 7.00pm PST/10.00pm EST, and to watch it, you will need to sign up here.

In case you can’t stay up that late, it will be re-broadcast three hours later, which will be early morning for those in the UK and Europe.

However, the presentation will be archived for a year, so just watch it when you feel like it, honestly.

The mail didn’t say what was going to be discussed, but you can pretty much guarantee it’ll have some financials included due to it being especially for analysts.

So, expect forward looking statements and projects in the pipeline to be discussed.

Sega's big Natal game?
Quote:
Natal is suppose to have a big event on June 13th, one of the games that is suppose to launch with is “Sonic Free Riders” that is rumored to be an XBLA game.

To be honest, I hated Sonic Riders and if this is anything like it, I do not care. Sort of weird that its a XBLA title. We will keep you posted.

That's what it looks like to us, the general public. I'm pretty sure it's a different story for the people of the industry.
And it's not half as bad as 5 years ago, with tons of silly booth babes.


Do we know when the press conference of the big 3 are held? I hope to watch them live, but there's a 9 hours time difference...

I cannot wait to see more about Lords of Shadow.

Also I heard on the Bombcast the other day that Insomniac would be releasing a "new title" that isn't going to be PS3 exclusive. Might see something from them at e3.

Well we knew about the Insomniac thing since they announced next game with EA like two weeks ago.

Also some speculation from IGN in regards to the 3DS

Quote:
Several developers that have experienced 3DS in its current form have reported, off the record, that it has processing capabilities that far exceed the Nintendo Wii and bring the device with abilities that are close to HD consoles such as PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

I dreamed about Eł (). There were some pretty good predictions in it.

At the Nintendo press conference everybody will be offered 3D glasses, so people can watch the 3DS stuff on a big screen.

The 3DS demo/game I dreamed about was pretty neat. Some kind of 3D pong which kept throwing more and more balls at you.
The Zelda stuff was both good and bad. Good news: Zelda looked absolutely gorgeous. Part of that was because it was in 3D... and that's where the bad news fit in. Zelda would be delayed so it could launch on the sequel to Wii. Which was... The ThriiDii! (Edit: I can't believe I'm not the first who came up with 'ThriiDii'.)

Do normal people ever dream about.. girls and stuff?

More on the possible Goldeneye for Wii rumors

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/ac...me-in-november

Quote:
Eurogamer has learned that Activision is working on a James Bond: GoldenEye title for Wii and DS that should be released this November.

The new title may be a remake of the classic Nintendo 64 first-person shooter, originally developed by Rare, and according to our source the publisher intends to unveil it at E3.

Development duties have been split between UK-based Eurocom and US-based n-Space.

Eurocom has previously worked on James Bond titles during the franchise's time at E3, including the N64 title The World Is Not Enough.

Activision has been widely tipped to make a new GoldenEye game after it was spotted registering domain names derived from the name of the 1995 film. The original game is considered the best of a (mostly bad) Bond bunch.

Earlier this week it was spotted surveying gamers about a possible remake.

The Wii/DS GoldenEye title should not be confused with the Bizarre Creations game, thought to be called James Bond: Bloodstone, which is expected to focus on the driving side of the spy's skill-set.

We spoke to Activision but nobody was in a position to comment.
