E3!!!!

Dance Central is the reason we own a Kinect in my household. I personally think it was pretty cool seeing the real guy do the movements that will be featured in the game.

Even having Joe Montana demo the Voice Commands on Kinect with the new Madden was cool too. I used to play football so I can get behind that and drawing up my own plays with that Smart Glass feature. It will allow me too open up defenses even better then usual.

Honestly professiornalism is ok but I equate gaming with fun and that's what MS conference looked like. Sony seemed like a strict meeting where your left wondering if you're fired or not. It's not a bad thing (the professional part) but it didn't make me hype for anything. It's not my job as a consumer to generate hype for a product that a business wants me to buy.

The 35+ Mario games was an obvious exaggeration but I felt Iike I was looking at Mario every 15 mins I came back to check. That's typical Nintendo though. I wish they would step into the big boys league already. I hope ZombiU is their first step because it's a damn good one and I hope they don't waste it.

I guess the games MS emphasized on are just not my style, and thats why I hated it.
You act like Nintendo was never a good publisher/developer (I could tell the super hyperbole. I guess its just my nostalgia makes me want to defend them), but I think it was just the wii era that nintendo was bad. and they were very bad then. In the Gamecube era, they were getting SC2, a game we would never see on the wii era (Well we did get Legends, but that game wasn't nearly as violent as all the other soul caliburs). I want to see the difference in how many M rated games are on the gamecube, then how many are on the wii. I can already name off way more remotely violent (Rather T or M games) games that would never be on the Wii. Splinter Cell Conviction (i think its that one), Resident Evil 4 (When RE was still horror, and a damn good horror at that), Turok, James Bond 007, and a bunch of others. I think Nintendo just got very, very bad and major on "family fun" during the wii age, and thats why they were not as good. Wii U, I think Nintendo understands why they were so bad. 1st party games was what the wii LIVED on, so of course they want to show they still have first party games running. Luigis mansion and Paper Mario are major fan favorites, and will be very popular. I agree ZombiU is a great step in the right direction. A true core-gamer survival game that actually looks good. What did the wii games have that were good? Mario, Zelda, Kirby. And Red Steel 2 (I think thats the right game. the uber violent wii game) and monster hunter. But the games that were good on Wii were also better on other systems. Even the vita has a more powerful monster hunter. So Nintendo was never really bad, just the Wii was. Nintendo was bad at that time. They'll do just fine on the Wii U, I'd say. Better controller, better graphics, it already looks much better than the Wii.

Gamecube was awesome. I have zero faith in WiiU because I'm sure they will make all the same mistakes they did with the Wii.

Well Gamecube only had about four games that held my interest. They only have two 1st party titles that I like and neither of them get any love. Those would be Star Fox and Metroid.

Their line up usually looks like Mario game, Mario Game, Mario Game, Donky Kong game, Mario Game, (insert random game I don't care about. Pikman maybe?) Mario Game, Mario Game and Luigi Game.........

Also I will never understand how people can say "Oh here comes MS with a new Gears" when Nintendo has been riding the same franchises into the ground for years. I have excepted years ago that the whole Nintendo franchise isn't for me though so its whatever.

Problem is nintendo really never said "This will be the last Mario game." While epic said "this will be the last gears for awhile" and by awhile he meant less than 6 months or more. Besides they are popping the DMC making a prequel to gears when cole and beard are young and man I just dont see it being any different than what we already know. Mario falls in the same boat but mario I guess tries to make you have fun with the same mechanics.

E3 this year was... nice and bland and i see next year really topping the charts with new systems around the corner. So I guess we all got something to look forward too.

Gears: Judgement will have a class system. This is completely new but idk if it will effect the regular PvP or just the new Overrun mode which looks similar to Left For Dead or Dead Space PvP. They will be having a new Revive grenade and that alone can drastically change how Gears is played depending on how they implement it, assuming they use it for the regular PvP too.

Gears also has 14-15 years of backstory never put into a game so I knew before the 2nd game came out that we would see at least 4 or 5 Gears games if none of that was ever covered. Any person in their right mind would milk that HARD.

Honestly I can't even follow DMC story. All I know is Dante's dad was apparently a top dog demon and he banged a human chick that which led him to believe Sex>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Killing all humans. Everything else just seems random. I mean what happened to shawty from DMC2? What about Nero? Why must we only have two requiring Devil Arms? Cerberus was hot. Still love the series though.

I'm not buying a new console anytime soon. I mean what's the point? WHOA DUDE BETTER GRAPHICS!! I don't care or else I wouldn't play Wild Arms and Legend of Dragoon as often as I do. They really gonna have to do some hot shit to get me on that hype train.
