An action Need For Speed game that allows players on foot, interesting?

 

[Divinokage]

*sigh* Man some people are just running out of ideas.. and then it turns out super ****ty lolll.

 

[Gamegenie222]

Don't worry bout this post. It's accidental.

 

[Luigitoilet]

xbox, bing HARRY POTTER!

if I can't yell at my Cafe to bing stuff I'm gonna stick with Microsoft Xbox.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Beaten it or platinumed it?

 

[finalark]

My jump on Kinect, it's voice recognition is definetly something cool and new to try, but along with it came a series of casual games and wacky motion controls, seriously why take what Nintendo has done and failed and make it into something of similar aspect??

I wouldn't say that Nintendo failed on the motion controls. After all, the Wii outsold the PS3 and 360. Even with their sales combined. The market for it just died down, which is why the Cafe will focus on a traditional audience.

 

[Gamegenie222]

Ni**s like Lil Wayne like Soccer? This is new.

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

Let's go Sony LET'S GO!

Anything on Sonic Generations?

 

[Gamegenie222]

Overstrike looks very promising.

 

[Bowser King]

Man, battlefield 3 looks a million times better than MW3. If the MP wasn't so slow paced, I would definitely buy it over MW3.

I agree completely, Battlefleld is wayyyy too slow for me.

 

[Lore]

Like Halo.

Anyway, I'm both glad and sad that Dead Space wasn't mentioned. I'm glad that they aren't milking it for all it's worth, but I would have loved to see at least a bit of info on one of my favorite recent franchises.

 

[finalark]

What did I miss from EA?

 

[Gamegenie222]

Mass Effect 3, Star Wars The Old Republic, Battlefield 3, OverStrke and a bunch of sports games no one cares about Finalark.

Edit: Hype for the new Twisted Metal.

All I care about. What's OverStrike?

Also, new Twisted Metal will be awesomer than awesome.

Halo is more in-between for me, its not as fast paced as CoD, but its fast enough to hold my interest. With Battlefield, there was one match where I searched the map for 5 minutes for enemies and found no one, needless to say I was starting to get bored.

 

[Sinister Slush]

I actually enjoyed what I saw from Overstrike. Might possibly get it along with Twisted Metal.

OverStrike is a new action shooter game being done by Insomniac games.

DID SOMEBODY SAY INSOMNIAC!?

I'm going to go check this out.

EDIT: Just saw the trailer, it looks really fun.

 

[Gamegenie222]

So what website to go to now?

I wouldn't say that Nintendo failed on the motion controls. After all, the Wii outsold the PS3 and 360. Even with their sales combined. The market for it just died down, which is why the Cafe will focus on a traditional audience.

I think that in the terms of making motion controls an equal to tradition button controls, ninty has failed to do that. While they did sell well, they were unable to have motion controls contain as much precision as button style control.

This is why people were having issues with the Wii-mote in DKCR, as the game's challenge demands absolute precision which you cannot get from a Wii-mote.

So did Microsoft did do better this year?

 

[The Real Gamer]

That's not a fact, that's your personal feeling on the game. If someone else enjoyed it why would they think it was a fact that it was disappointing?

Because the general consensus from both the major reviewers and the typical gamers was that it was disappointing I don't understand what you're trying to get at here.

I still remember a few years ago Prototype was the featured upcoming game on Game Informer and it was hyped like crazy, but then once it came out the same reviewers who praised it slammed it hard as well as many others. Just sayin.

 

[finalark]

So did Microsoft did do better this year?

If you consider an hour and a half of Kinect nonsense with the only interesting announcements being a Halo 1 remake and Halo 4 then yes, they did to a little better.

 

[Eternal Yoshi]

I took a nap. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Halo 4? Is Bungie in on this?

I heard that the anniversary edition of Halo: Combat evolved is using the engine of Halo Reach. Is this true?

 

[finalark]

Halo 4? Is Bungie in on this?

No. Sadly.

I heard that the anniversary edition of Halo: Combat evolved is using the engine of Halo Reach. Is this true?

We don't know for sure yet.

 

[Poltergust]

So, where do I go to see Sony's press conference?

 

[finalark]

So, where do I go to see Sony's press conference?

Pretty much any game news site that's streaming it. I'm watching it through Gamespot.

 

[Spire]

LOL did you guys see that Ubisoft tool? What an ***hole.

 

[finalark]

Is Ubisoft's up? What's going on with that?

 

[Bowser King]

He's making some really bad jokes so far.

Oh and they showed Driver San Fransisco.

 

[Sinister Slush]

My internet is too slow/bad to even watch the stream.
Anyone who's here that is watching the Ubisoft stream, just tell me if anything is worth noting or anything on Rayman.

 

[finalark]

Just tell me the biggest things mentioned once its done.

 

[Spire]

Didn't realize that was Farcry 3. Going back to the roots eh?

"Well, now I know where not to take the kids on vacation this year."

Recap so far:

Rayman: Origins
that new Driver game
Farcry 3
new Brothers in Arms

 

[Bowser King]

Farcry 3 looks awesome :D

Finally that guy is off the stage again.

 

[Gamegenie222]

TinTin and Paramount pictures WTF?

 

[F8AL]

Does not compute.

So did Microsoft did do better this year?

Yes, in my opinion, they saved/redeemed themselves at the end with the announcement of Halo 4.

I took a nap. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Halo 4? Is Bungie in on this?

I heard that the anniversary edition of Halo: Combat evolved is using the engine of Halo Reach. Is this true?

Nope, 343 industries is making it. It has no online MP so I'm not buying it.

So, where do I go to see Sony's press conference?

Check the OP.

 

[Eternal Yoshi]

The anniversary edition of Halo: Combat Evolved has NO ONLINE MULTIPLAYER?

Despite the fact that fans created servers for the original combat evolved before live came to be?

wat

 

[finalark]

The anniversary edition of Halo: Combat Evolved has NO ONLINE MULTIPLAYER?

Um, where did you read that? The trailer said that it had co-op and competitive online multiplyaer.

 

[Eternal Yoshi]

Above my post.

Surely they know better than to not have it.

 

[finalark]

F8AL's trolling you, then.
