Default Re: Best of Show - Your Choice

ahhh yes, I forgot to mention City of Villains. Yeah...thats an awesome game to watch out for (at least for me obviously, others may not like it but meh )

I actually this year got 'special access' to see a "demo" of CoV in action. Since my supergroup in game is pretty well-known by the developers (first to defeat the end-game baddie after his major buff to how powerful he was back months ago), we were allowed to watch a press thingy of some CoV in action. Now, I cant talk about what I saw because all our accounts would be perma-banned so...yeah, no-no on what I saw

But I think this E3 was kinda, sorta, maybe dry. It had a ton of games but as IGN pointed out, this E3 was at first gonna turn out as the 'kick ass E3 that comes around every 4-5 years'. ie: New consoles, new games announced. Just a ton of new info by all 3 companies. Heated rivalries about why their console is better. But in reality, it just kinda faltered to an extent. As said above, MS came out with all the stops because well, its coming out in November and they had to have something.

Sony - unvelied the PS3Grill . Showed its uberness but that was about it.
Nintendo - unvelied the Revolwhotion? (wow...did I just say that? ). All we know is the prototype case, a new IP for it, ability to download past Nintendo created games from N64 and before, backwards compatible. But...thats about it. NIntendo was too secretive and in the long run, they are gonna look back yet again and realize it hurt them a little.

BUt overall, this was still an awesome E3. Just...not as 'show-stopping' as it was seeming to want to be. Maybe next year
