Showing Mass Effect 3 now

[1ke]

Ill say this about 360.

Im not too mad.

I mean, going into this i was preparing myself for all the Kinect gayness. And other than Ghost Recon, which was my favorite trailer, nothing Kinect did excited me.

Mass Effect is thr truth, Gears we already know, Halo...Meh, Tomb Raider was eye catching. Forza was wow. Modern Warfare was a waste of my time. That had shown no real progress in their franchise. Looked EXACTLY the same as MW2.

Thought all the XBL TV shot was cool. Not life changing though.

I give em a B. C- for hardcore gamers, and a A- for everyone who doesnt care about games.

[Garrett67]

EA and Madden was lame as Hell.

[leaffan]

I just got home from heading out after the the MS show.

I knew they were going all Kinect shit but jesus christ was I getting steamed with the disney shit and all the time they wasted on the kinect stuff but not surprised they are trying to cash in hard.

MW3 looked meh. I made it home to see the BF3 and lol if anyone is going to go and buy MW3 over bf3.

[leaffan]

Halo 4 and the halo anniversery stuff...



fuck that series.

[killgod]

other than NHL and ME3, my Xbox will remain powered off.

[Boucher]

I literally LMAO that disney shit

[inthecards21]

I don't really get the whole watching e 3 live thing, I just check Ign later that day to see the announcements I actually give two shits about. But they really surprised me with Halo 4, can't wait to finish the story

The story will never end.

[MmmmBeeeeer]

The story will never end.

They said it will be a new trilogy :lolwut:

[Twigg4075]

The story will never end.

Yup. Not as long as they can keep milking that cow.

[SethMode]

Why is it "milking the cow" for MS because it's Halo, yet Nintendo gets a pass for Zelda and Mario?

Not that I give a shit about Halo either. They should just stop with the SP and just make MP versions...that's all most any Halo fans use Halo for anyway.

Its twigg anytime he can get a shot in at MS he's happy.

All the while ignoring the billions of other games on every other console that practically do the same thing.

I bash it for the thanks obviously

Apparently you didn't read my comment in the Nintendo thread? It's funny how people like you and Leaf only point out the anti-MS comments consistently.

I said that Nintendo has been milking the same series' since the fucking 80's. I also said that it seems that Japanese companies on the whole, not all of course, seem to be stuck in the 80's and 90's and think that the same game design and same games are still amazing today.

That said, I do think classic platformers like Mario are almost timeless, unlike a FPS starring a space marine. The fact that people still play the original SMB to this day and enjoys it says something. I don't think the same could be said for the first Halo in another ten years. With that said I'm also a Halo fan. I have every one of the games, some I have two copies of for mp purposes. But the series is starting to get long in the tooth at this point.

For starters, chill out. You're always so gd sensitive if anyone calls you out regarding anything MS. And spare me, I could not care less who you like or hate, you just get more and more irrational with the stuff you bitch about about MS, and since it's a message board I call you on it.

As far as your comment in the Nintendo thread...you gave Nintendo one hell of a pass in comparison. MS is "milking the cow" yet Nintendo is "living in the 80's and you still love the hell out of their games". Preference is preference, but they're both still milking away. Yet your MS rage just makes you mention MS.

To finish, that wasn't even directed specifically at you...it's a comment I've heard about Sony and MS FAR more than Nintendo and that bewilders me. I'm as nostalgic as the next person, and many of the games I love I love because I played them when I was a kid and could game carefree. But a spade is still a spade.
