E3 was awesome in my opinion. M.A.G. & God of War 3 announcements + we finally got to see gameplay for InFamous, which looks incredible by the way but what I really wanted to see at E3 was Heavy Rain, which will be at Leipzig next month. Stage presentation by Quantic Dream, in fact.

Yer it's weird that they didn't pump more of the awesome annoucnements at America which is according to them, the only place where they aren't in the lead.
Anyway, does this hitn at all at Team ICO? Global, and important in Europe? I Damn well hope so, even though TGS seems way more likely.

MS may be saving the anouncement of Halo for Europe to try to goad the europeans into buying more Xboxes. The problem is that Halo is an US centred IP, its not really the type of stuff that resonates much in Europe. They would have been smarter to play that card in the US E3. But then again, I don't think they have much more cards to play and this may be a way to spread out their announcements to atually have something at all to show throughout the year.

FFXIII going to 360 was 360 news. I don't care about 360 news because I don't have a 360. Looking at Sony's E3, it could have been better, but it wasn't bad at all. We saw Killzone 2 multiplayer, more littlebigplanet (awesome as always), infamous gameplay, 2 major new game announcements for ps3, loads of PSN and PSP announcements, motorstorm 2 was looking more polished, resistance 2 looked gorgeous in places (ugly in others but it can be improved upon hopefully). So as I say, it wasn't bad.

2.5 - @ 2.4 thor
mate i'm tired of shooters. Enough already. Enough with killzone2, enough with resistance 2, enough with socom, enough with shooters. What the hell is wrong with this generation of gaming providing us shooters 24/7? i want more action-adventures games, i want more platform games, i want more puzzle games, and most of all i want more ROLE PLAYING GAMES.
Where are the bloody RPGs?

I have an idea why, it's because RPGs have the longest development cycle and cost to produce _anyway_, add that to the already high cost of PS3 game development and it really is significant to create an AAA RPG, just look at how much they're spending on killzone 2; and they don't even need to think up much of a story, make a 40+ hour game, or record lots and lots of dialogue etc.
However, I can't think that team ICO will be making a shooter, and if it involves shooting in any way it certainly won't be traditional. Plus, Square Enix has promised us something, and Heavy Rain will be an action adventure, more similar to an RPG (in fact it may fall loosely into that category but we don't know yet).
Also, I'm sure that naughty dog are working on uncharted 2 and that.... is another shooter. The game that was just announced (Hardware 2 or whatever) is a shooter, albeit vehicle based but another shooter. MAG is a shooter. It has 256 player online, so what? I bet after 6 months of release there won't even BE 256 players playing it at any given time, because all the shooter fans will be spread wafer-thin across all the numerous shooter franchises.

All i'm looking forward to these upcoming 12 months are:
*LittlebigPlanet
*Heavy Rain
*God of War III
*Team ICO's secret project
*Metal Gear Solid 5
*and of course, JRPGs
All the others can kiss my butt.

Yes, but Reeves said they are going to spread out the announcements throughout E3, Leipzig and TGS, so "Ico3" will certainly be announced at TGS. At leipzig we will be hearing (and seeying) Heavy Rain.
And no, "Ico3" won't be a shooter, thats for sure.

9 - Maybe
The "blockbuster" announcement he says is actually a partnership with Blockbuster Video to deliver content from blockbuster streamed to the PS3. maybe blockbuster is creating thier own "watch now" service to stay competitive against Netflix? That would be a play on words huh? Probably wishful thinking though. It would be cool if it was the PS2 store!!

If 360 didn't have halo, no one would have a 360. I suppose then microsoft could have hyped the $hit out of another game, but the sole reason for an awful lot of 360 purchases was halo, and its massive advertising campaign.
