I MISS THE OLD CRASH BANDICOOT!!!!! One of gaming's most original, revolutionary, and just plain funnest (most fun, for u grammerfreaks) series of games. The first 3 games, (Crash Bandicoot, CB 2: Cortex Strikes Back, and CB: Warped) were the best platformers. ever. no two levels are alike, each game brings dozens of new features to the table, and combines both 3d and 2d platforming (as well as the world's only badass character who likes to explore [Im looking at you sonic.]). then Travellers Tales got the rights to develop the game and ever since then IT SUCKED!!!!! maybe after Uncharted 2 naughty dog will go back to its' roots (fingers crossed)
i hav to say it would be unnecessary collectibles and hidden paths to find said collectibles. in the crash bandicoot games, after you spend months finally beating the levels and the bosses (i was six back then... it took me 3 years :P) you have to come back and find all of these gems and get relics and speed challenges and all this crap to give the game "replay value". there is no such thing as replay value. there's trophy-whoring and 100%-slutting but its never ever fun to play a game again.
ehh... next yr do it for the big three & the big publishers (ea, ubisoft, activision) instead of just 3 games (one of which isnt coming out nxt yr & the another whom i've never heard of) ALSO DO THE HL2: EP3 BOOTH FROM VALVE NEXT YEAR CUZ IT'LL BE THERE!! BETTA BELIEVE IT BABY!!!
ALL OF THESE WOULD BE A LOT BETTER WITH THE PS3 MOTION CONTROLLER!!!
FPS: if u hav access to an analog stick (which they may/may not hav on the ps3mote, i havent seen it) then u can hav an actual real fps game with it. plus, if you duck behind the chair, it could look like a melee, which would cause soo much frustration.
RTS: say you're about to tell a couple tanks where to go on the battlefield. How would u select those tanks? without an onscreen cursor, how would you know exactly where you're pointing? also, HOW WOULD THE GAME KNOW IF U ARE JUST NAVIGATING THE MAP, GROUPING PEOPLE, OR GIVING THEM DIRECTIONS??? u need buttons to toggle different settings/modes.
U DONT NEED A FULL-BLOWN CONTROLLER, BUT U NEED SOME SORT OF BUTTON INTERACTION!!!
i still believe that the ps3's motion controller is the only one that will capture the semi-hardcore demographic (hardcore is NEVER going to motion sensing)... just to throw that out there....
my favorite part was probly when nintendo crapped their pants twice in 24 hours: first at the microsoft conference & then @ the sony one. A turd sandwich!
the thing about natal is that it has no fps support [its just impossible to do fps without a real trigger] and has no "off" button
(if ur doin an fps like sony showed w/ the ps3mote, and u move your hand [the cursor] across the screen to highlight & direct people on the battlefield, they clicked a button to toggle between highlighting ppl, directing them, and just moving a cursor. with no buttons its impossible)
--and its just unnatural to play a game without a controller. thats just weird. and uncomfortable. and appeals to the casual player, which is a totally different demographic than the xbox already gets
U JUST MADE MY DAY!! its time for sony to end all of this polite bullcrap and act like real men (cuz those are their customers, after all) so we gotta man up, yell F*** YOU!!! and say SUCK ON THIS FATTY as we unveil the psp Go!
recaptcha: 'flushed the' toilet wit microsoft in it!
I already commented before but another thing i'd love to see/hear about @ e3 doesn't hav to even be a game... I just want Valve to say they'll develop for the Ps3 and Macs from now on
the frosting on the cake would be a huge TF2 update for ps3 OR TF2 release for Mac OS X
recaptcha: hereupon two... could this mean hereupon this E3, these two will come true?
I wanna see a new crash bandicoot platformer title, like the old ps1 trilogy... those were some of the best games since 3d console gaming was made possible; and considering sony's apparent suckage at capturing the gaming market, and that many of the original ps1 owners have since migrated to the xbox 360, why not go back to doing what made them popular in the first place: publish good, simple, quality games.
I thought Resi 4 was pretty scary, especially the monks in the castle. As long as mercenaries is in the next one and the bosses stay big and epic ( Irving was Awesome IMO) I dont mind what happens in 6. I hope they keep Leon though I think hes really cool
