TGS 2009 - Day 1: Sony came to play, Microsoft...not so much

gorillajumpers.com breaks down all the happenings at the first day of TGS 2009.

"Sony came out swinging today with alot of exciting news that has got me...well, excited. Microsoft's announcements seemed a little weak in comparison, but you can hardly blame them can you? I mean Japan has never been their strongest market. With the juggernaut that is the PS3 Slim moving 1 million consoles since launch, I can see why Microsoft would want to pick and choose their battles from this point on."

Sony may not have had what I was looking for, but MS only barely even showed up. Natal looks impressive, but until I see ACTUAL GAMES, I really don't care. Sony showed actual games. They win.

New crackdown gameplay, information and multiplayer video.

New Alan wake footage/information

New forza 3 video's and the demo release

New splinter cell conviction gameplay
http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/...

Bunch of lower radar exclusives like N3-2 videos and such, and a bunch of natal developer support announced

It'd be nice to get a bit more impressive news like a new exclusive or reach info or something, but it's still relatively decent.

Alan wake info ??!?!?!

Where ?

Komega5347d ago

I mentioned the Alan Wake stuff but am unable to find any video as of yet, when I do I'll post it up in the article. @Xi Sorry man, I just don't see how Crackdown and Splinter Cell stack up against GT5, GOW, and MGS: Peace Walker in terms of 'big announcements'

Komega5347d ago

@XI MS did say that they were holding some stuff back, which I'm sure will include Reach info. Remember this is a Day 1 breakdown, in no way have I said that Sony is going to whipe the floor with MS....yet:)

Xi5347d ago (Edited 5347d ago )

I guess it's a difference of opinion. Neither sony, nor MS, have shown me anything which gives them the leg up over one or the other.

And vice verse, MS could also be holding back. Remember though, Sony had their keynote and press conference. If they were going to announce anything truly impressive I would've bet it would've been done by now.

Yes please bring it. I really do miss the Phantasy Star Universe combat system though. Phantasy Star has failed me since then.

Delta5292d ago

I want it!!!
i hope they make another Phantasy Star. :)

The_Perverted_Ninja5292d ago

I'm not into the phantasy star series but PSO was one of my favorite games and I would love to play another one. I even bought a Dreamcast after playing it at a friends house and later I got a GameCube for episode 1 and 2. Please make another but make it more like PSO and less like PSU.

BlackIceJoe5292d ago

I would love to see Phantasy Star V. I so want to see Sega make more RPGs. Because when Sega takes there time they bring out really incredible RPGs. So I hope to see PS on consoles soon.
