GameSpot: Codename Kingdoms Trailer Impressions

GameSpot writes: ""Oh, for a voice like thunder…" The trailer begins with the somber, yearning voice of a warrior. Close shots show us glimpses of his leather armor, his grimy skin, his metal-studded shield. The warrior walks slowly through the aftermath of a great battle, through discarded weapons and the wreckage of ancient machines of war. These early glimpses are all we know about Codename Kingdoms, a new game for the Xbox 360 by Crytek".

Microsoft Media Briefing Brings Halo 4, 5, and 6 Announcement with Trailer

MovieStinger: "Microsoft started their media briefing off strong today showcasing titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3, there was even a new look at last year’s Codename: Kingdoms, now renamed Ryse, which will run on the powerful Crytek engine (Crysis) and use Kinect’s motion technology. Unfortunately, like the Miami Heat in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, Microsoft’s briefing quickly started to fall apart towards the end. That is, until they debuted Halo 4..."

I think it's already over stayed it's welcome. It can disappear again and never surface again for all I care.

Marcus Fenix4737d ago

that's my most disappointing thing in the whole show, I was thinking about it all day, they should've said that it's a Kinect title long time ago.

i was disappointed that its gonna be an on rail kinnect game..

trounbyfire4737d ago

No kingdoms i thought was going to be a GOW clone but WTF man really this is

Nes_Daze4737d ago

It looked good, but it was too short, and didn't it look like another rail game? I was hoping that it would use kinect to a minimum.

Fishy Fingers4737d ago

Waste of an 'excusivity contract' with a big name dev if you ask me. Expected so much more from this.

trounbyfire4737d ago

did you see star wars
if we can't get a star wars move game with the LS that melt everything i lose hope

What We Expect from Microsoft at E3 2011 (Gears, Forza, Halo, etc.)

GameDynamo - "The Electronic Entertainment Expo is a show on par with some of the most sought after trade shows in America, showing us all how far video games have come in the last decade. One of the heavy hitters in the show is, of course, Microsoft. It might seem as if there isn't a whole lot in store from the software giant other than Kinect games, but we've been surprised before, so we might be surprised again. So far, there are a few confirmed and rumored titles we've gathered from various sources that Microsoft followers should keep on the radar."

I like the "etc" in the title.
Curious to see that.

Reibooi4757d ago

I expect to either see a whole lot of something(new games and exclusives hopefully) OR a whole lot of nothing(Kinect junk and the games we already know are coming) Considering their track record as of late I would think it will be the latter.

xAlmostPro4757d ago

Gears 3 SP info, forza 4, more halo, kinect kinet kinect

LOGICWINS4757d ago

Obviously, I'm most excited for Sony's conference since I only have a PS3, but I always love to c M$ conference to c wat crazy shit they pull out of their ass at the end lol.

Istanbull4757d ago

Gears, Forza and Halo? Again? Sorry but this is boring. MS needs to open new studios instead of shutting down.

Sony owns more studios then MS and Nintendo combined, thats why they lead the industry for 15 years.

jetlian4757d ago

years? where was l... 10 maybe but as of right now they last dead last

HolyOrangeCows4757d ago

Well, I think it will be exactly like the last one; two or so exclusives, some timed-exclusive map packs, kinect, kinect, kinect.

The sad truth is probably more kinect shoveware games..

MintBerryCrunch4757d ago

stealth500k4757d ago

thats actually turned out to be an on rails kinect game. So its really forgetable now.

No Way4757d ago

Link? Proof? I have not heard of it, so show something ..

"Codename: Kingdoms, which has been revealed as being a first person “melee action” title that features “Kinect support.”"

Nac4756d ago

That features support, doesnt say it is a Kinect game. I mean hell, First person combat alone isn't terrible. I play my Elder Scrolls in first person.

I'm hoping for new exclusives and IPs, but I fear most of their offerings will be Kinect shovelware. ¬_¬

MagicGamer4757d ago

Hoping modern warfare 3 gets a showing.
