IMO they're overcomplicating this

This is turning into a Montana interview.

How about you fucking make use of your ESPN license?

Ask Madden without you asking.

Ticker: Dead Space 2 drops Jan. 2011.

Dude segues into Sims 3 with a philosophical argument for free will.

Sims 3 slide show. A fucking slide show.

Sims 3 is being presented as an experiment of free will. People ant farm. Sims will be "unpredictable".

Whooo, neuro/psych seminar.

"Sims may have more free will than we do."

Cue trailer with uppity 'college' music.

Shows Sims... being normal. Living life.

Taglines: "Create. Play. Live." and "Play with lif3."

So that was basically a trailer for a game that's already out?

New EA partners, Insomniac and Respawn shout out.

Yes.

Yay, back to basics: Crysis 2.

Crysis 2 up.

"Delivers new kind of sandbox experience."

"Most intelligent enemies in FPSs."

Damn, this looks good.

This is probably the best looking FPS I ever seen.

Once upon a time I riffed about a Transformers game where you play as humans fighting Decepticons. This is exactly what I was talking about.

RRRRRRRAAAAAAGING BONER

3D enabled for both 360 and PS3. Live presentation. Gonna have to head to a journalist blog for proper description.

BOOOOOO

Booo, 3D demo, means nothing to us.

"3D at E3D" WOW COOL CLEVER

And here comes Cliffy B.

Bulletstorm up.

I hate Cliffy. Jesus. Hearing him talk is infuriating.

WHO IS THIS WOMAN?

This girl is making "Bulletstorm" sound quite gay

YOU SCARED THE DICK OFF ME

Bulletstorm is looking much tastier than CoD: Black and Halo: Reach.

This game was made by a 12yo boy.

I like FPS games. I like over the top shit. But not together...

This dialogue is pretty painful

GET OVER HERE!

Nah man do cool shit so unlock cool shit so do more cool shit

"I do not speak TRAIN."

Better shoot that giant wheel

Game makes everything else look really slow.

The fact that it's over the top appeals. So bored of formulaic WW2/Modern Warfare/Sci-Fi shooters. Being different made Borderlands great and may do the same here.

Plus, I love me some Serious Sam.

Star Wars The Old Republic up.

Every player gets a starship. Will operate as your homebase.

Trailer time. Prerendered visuals.

Planet Alderaan shown. It's being invaded by bad people. Crazy battle shown. Troopers, Sith, epic music. I love Star Wars.

Hot Jedi chick with double-sided lightsaber kicking ass.

Chick blocks saber with her hand. Major Force usage here. This trailer is better than Eps 1 and 2.

Looks like some movie. I thought The Old Republic was about strategy and numbers and stuff.

Most likely it still is.

And that's EA's show. No RB3?

NO FUCKING MIRROR"S EDGE 2?

Fuck videogames.

It's probably coming, just that no one except like 10 people gives a fuck about it. I heard they were going ahead with the trilogy despite lackluster sales.

I have this game and like it, but fuck me it gets dizzying and fighting 6 guys with guns while trying not to shoot them is terribly gay.

Maybe it's coming after Dice is done with Medal of Honor.

bullshyt, Mirrors Edge was the tits.

Did you not read my post. I didn't say it was bad. In fact I said the opposite. However, I acknowledge why it didn't sell well.

I'm sure this has been posted but I don't want to sift through a bunch of pages... is there a link for a live stream?

you said only 10 people care about it...that hurt me.

No i know what youre saying though, it didnt exactly sell well despite critical success.

Mirror's Edge was definitely in the "love it or hate it" category. That said, I don't get motion sickness from videogames, so I loved it.

I agree with Fignuts. I was really hoping for an announcement on it, too. :(

G4 has them all. Only Mircosofts was on Spike.

Gran Turismo 5 better get a date tomorrow.

Ubisoft conference coming up.

Some guy's playing what can only be described as an acid trip. At a rave.

With his hand.

I have no idea what's going on.

Looks like a Natal oriented Geo Wars...

Camera just cut to a reporter who's just standing there looking the floor. LOL Fire the technicians.

That game is called, Child of Eden.

Ubisoft's tagline: "Games You Can Feel."

I see where this is going.

Assassins Creed returns.

The assassin is back, and he isn't alone.

Assassins Creed Brotherhood. Five assassins.

Live Demo:

Enzo is now a legend, and leads a team of assassins. His estate is being attacked. Lots of action, game looks great. Parkour mobility is back.

Enzo is shooting a canon at invaders.

How sweet would Co-op assasins creed be...

Large scale battle, you wouldn't believe this was an AC game. Looks like a LotR battle.

Soldiers pour in. Combat is largely unchanged, enemies more aggressive. Cool new moves.

Multiplayer is in, modes not detailed.

Shaun White Skateboarding up. Why does he have so many games?

Yeah, upon further review doesn't seem to be co-op even though that type of game SCREAMS for it... :(

Interview time. Because we love to know more about these people.

Live demo:

As reported before, the hook is being able to transform the environment as you play. Using your skateboard, of course.

The environment is intentionally dull and lifeless. You add color and life as you skate. Camera angle looks a lot like EA's skate.

Trees and flowers grow in your wake. Kinda gay really. Music fades in as you add more 'life' to the world.

Classic Tony Hawk style locomotion and trick system.

You can fly around like Silver Surfer creating rails in the sky. Looks very silly, yet liberating.

3D enabled and available on the Wii. That's that.

Some crazy laser tag session broke out in the crowd. Scripted.

"Attractive people fighting each other."

"Way to go, you beat models."

The host has a lot of self-aware zingers like this.

What the Hell, Ubisoft is selling a laser tag kit?

"A videogame you play away from the screen."

This is the zenith of motion stupidity.

This live demo is hilarious for the wrong reasons.

"I just beat the creator at his own game. You're nothing, you're garbage!"

I love this guy.

Guy with red hair is presenting a game that "gives you energy" and "reduces stress".

This thing uses a finger sensor and tracks your...

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS YOGA/ZEN SHIT IS DOING

You guys have to see this to believe it. Fucking ridiculous and the host knows it.

Video shows Ubisoft designers explaining why your body is the next stage in interacting to the game. A Kinect ad essentially.

Another vid montage of pretty people playing sports games using Kinect. My fucking god.

And now the presenters from Microsoft's conference showing Ubisoft's fitness game again. Black chick changed clothes.

Fitness guy: "We need to take your measurements."

Host: "Yeah."

Black Chick: "Watch it. Don't fall in love with me."

LOL

She was serious when she said, "Watch it."

Like earlier the game has impressive Kinect integration. Follows the body damn near 1:1 (slight lag).

Fitness guy: "You did great, how you gonna celebrate?"

Black chick: "Get some ice cream."

Host: "Yeah you worked out for three whole minutes."

And then:

"Yeah I can smell you from here."

AND THEN:

"Get a towel and wipe off this sweat, it's nasty."

Host is the best part of this conference.

Raving Rabbids coming to Wii. Meh.

Ghost Recon woooo.

Ghost Recon Future Soldier Live demo:

Very hardcore, very serious. Slow movements, cloaking in and out.

Close-quarter combat added to the series. Environments look great, of course. Coordinated snipes and a VIP captured. Hawt.

who is the host?

Now we're seeing a full on firefight. Nearby chopper gets blasted what appears to be a mini-nuke. Great action. Demo over.

"You should rename this game Awesome."

4plyr coop online, 3D enabled.
