i missed the first 33% of it, and it still dragged on for me. mostly cause they were really shoving Natal down our throats at the end.

Really Gotham?

THIS is why E3 wins always.

Except for last year.
No one won that year.

[Jericho]

Hey man, I got the Wada shoulder tap from MS and all of the Nintendo conference gifs + Motionplus, the way I see it, I still got what I needed from it. Laughs and awesome.

[Gaia]

Last year's and 06's was as lower than a bow-legged catterpillar. This year has slightly caught my intrest.

Oh, can I has screenshot of MS Motionplus?

this i expected. it's nice the guy finally realizes the truth of the game industry, but it's a shame he can't accept it.

he does know Substance was on Xbox, right?

WAT

[VixyNyan]

I updated the first post with European/RPM Time schedules. This is for Acid and myself. ^-^;

[Kit]

Raiden will never be able to say "Metal Gear!".
Ever.

[VixyNyan]

I watched a "behind-the-scenes" of Bayonetta, on that justin.tv link. The motion-sensor/voice actress for her is cute. ^^

[Gaia]

WAT

O U.

I remember how barely interesting '06's roster was. Belive me. And I was metaphorically speaking too.

[VixyNyan]

So this is the first time I watch American-type TV channels. G4TV is the MTV of gaming? o.o;

[Satoryu]

depends which MTV you're talking about. pre-Real World MTV or post-Real World MTV?

[VixyNyan]

Real World MTV in general. ^^;

I tend to steer clear of it because they ruined Twilight Princess for me.
They pulled what the Smash Dojo did for Brawl and revealed the good [parasitic bomb].

Yeah, the girls auditioning for the Bayonetta part made me chuckle a bit too. So lively.

Also, support Bayonetta all of you! I mean it!

Man, we are on two totally separate wavelengths. Between Sony's fuckawesome and legendarily failed conference, Nintendo's wham-bang "WHAT THE [tornado fang]? AHHHHHH!" good conference, and Microsoft being Microsoft, that was my nominee for best E3 ever bar none.

I tend to stay the [tornado fang] away from everyone and everything when I break into a new Zelda (post-TP). It was bloddy insane how rampant the spoilers were everywhere.

[CephiYumi]

that was the riiiiiiidge raaaaacer year right? o.o

Case in the point.

Well, E3's not over yet. Just wait until the suprises are revealed tomorrow. I just loved how the Microsoft went "Ariba, Ariba! Andale, Andale!". Well, it was speedy gonzales for me.

that was the riiiiiiidge raaaaacer year right? o.o

I think that was, I was never focused on E3 awhile back.

[Satoryu]

Real World MTV in general. ^^;

then it is like MTV, in that it only cares about games (music) when something big happens. the rest of the time, it's stuff that has nothing to do with games (music). in G4's case, that's reruns of Lost, Heroes, Cops, shitty reality shows, and most recently, movies.

[Jericho]

Yeah. And the "Ancient Japanese history -- Giant Enemy Crab", "PSP as rear view window", "This is living", "The graphics on this thing are cwwwazy", "$600 US dollars", "PSP will take gamers out of the gaming ghetto" and much much more.

Very true, but you have to admit that their E3 coverage is pretty damn good. It almost justifies their existence.

[VixyNyan]

Just exactly what I thought, Sato... nya~

[Kit]

The PSP comment...made me wat.
I also laughed my ass off.
There's a gaming ghetto?

[Jericho]

Seriously, I can never watch that thing and keep a stupid grin off of my face.

He's doing it wrong, here's how it should be done:

Konami just shot themselves in the foot.

I don’t know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I’m an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It’s not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an [dark hold]. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Metal Gear Solid Rising for either system, nor will they purchase any of Konami’s games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Konami has alienated an entire market with this move.

Konami, publicly apologize and cancel Metal Gear Solid Rising for 360 or you can kiss your business goodbye.
