E3 – Filled with wow…
This years E3 really does seem to be the best to date. Lots of stuff all round, much more than I am even going to mention in this post. These are just the things that are my personal favourites.
Sony
- 3D gaming with a demo of the upcoming exclusive, Killzone 3, expected February 2011.
- Move (even though I feel it is a bit gimmicky)
- LittleBigPlanet 2
- PlayStation Plus
- Portal 2, properly done for the PS3 & the trailer looks to have much more physics details
Microsoft
- Kinect – previously Natal. Lots on this as well, including some titles.
- Gears of War 3
- 360 Slim, built-in wifi & disc-scratching technology
Nintendo
- 3DS – 3D gaming without glasses
- The return of many classic nintendo characters
A wide range of games (non console exclusive) were also there
- Call of Duty: Black Ops
- Mortal Kombat
- Sonic
- Dead Space 2
- F.E.A.R 3
- Medal of Honor
- Quantum Theory
- Crysis 2
- Silent Hill 8
I think, in time, I might add a bit more on some of these individually along with screenshots etc.
Bright Falls, the beginning of Alan Wake
Recently I came across live-action movies, Bright Falls, a prequel to the upcoming Xbox 360 game, Alan Wake. The movies are taking place over what seem to be 6 individual episodes. Airing started at the end of April and new episodes are released weekly, with the final episodes coinciding with the release of the game mid-May.
Episode 1 is available on Youtube.
It’s a shame this is a 360 exclusive , however as it is only single-player I am not going to be missing out on anything through not having a Gold Live Subscription.
