    So I was just watching G4 as they were doing a hands-on demo of RE5. Anyway, at one point Chris shoots through a door, and Adam says "wow, that is something new" or something like that, and the Capcom PR guy says, "Yes, destructible environments such as doors are new to this RE".

    wat... o_O

    MS didn't realise that they'd already announced the game was coming to the system. It would appear misinformation and deception are new to this RE5. Besides it makes it more acceptable when they also claim the animations are new to this RE.

    Damn you for getting me excited about a WiiMotionPlus 1:1 sword duelling game set in the Kirby universe which would have been completely insane and totally awesome!


    That game is ten years old and I played it to death ten fucking years ago.

    I may have to kill you now

    Why the fuck was Kirby not announced in the Nintendo Keynote? It's one of the more casual Nintendo Franchises.

    Maybe they edited it out. I sat through it live and was wondering why I wasn't cooking dinner. And when nothing else was announced/shown, I cursed myself for being hungry and disappointed.

    Judging by the interface and the utter shittiness of the cover used in the game, I'm confident that EA and Activision have nothing to worry about.

    Seriously, that looked horrible. Like Guitar Fever bad.

    Alright. I'll kick things off: I didn't think the Nintendo one was THAT bad. Everyone was acting like they were in a coma while watching it but I thought we got some good info on the MotionPLUS thing. Plus, apparently, the sword fighting minigame is really good from hands on reports.

    Also, Animal Crossing will consume my life again. Sigh... Not sure if that's a good or bad thing yet.

    I will say that it wasn't god awful, but I will say that outside of a few "hey, that's kinda cool" moments, there wasn't anything shown that makes my wallet rustle with anticipation.

    Nintendo could have sold me a Wii yesterday, I've been really considering buying one, but they failed badly.

    I totally feel the same. I was hoping for at least some announcements evading the whole casual gaming thing. Instead we got a bunch of games dedicated to making middle aged middle class people making an ass of themselves in their living room.

    I don't think so. The video was 40-ish minutes long, and the failure was supposed to start at 35 minutes in. I think my net just shit itself or something because it knew what was coming.

    Yeah, you basically missed an all-female Ramones covers band, who were about as punk as this kitten

    and a lead-singer who felt it necessary to mime along to everything. Including pointing at her back for 'backbeat'.

    Then one of them attempted to play the game itself, and failed in the most spectacular way possible.

    Actually the people who played the game were part of Konami. And supposedly part of the team working on that game.

    A single monumental fail does not an entire conference fail make.

    I was really happy about the Castlevania and Silent Hill stuff we got to see. I'm less skeptical about Castlevania: Judgment now.

    Too bad Amy Hennig doesn't own the rights, Naughty Dog would be making a sequel as we speak. She wrote the last games and I wouldn't trust anyone else to keep all that insane pre-destination time jumping sensible.

    Naughty Dog made Uncharted with Amy Hennig, and what's Crystal Dynamics making? Tomb Raider. Funny how that works.

    I'm willing to give them a pass. Yeah, the press conference sucked, but it was only half an hour long. Their booth had MM9, Bionic Commando and Bionic Commando Rearmed, SF2HD and SF4 arcade, and RE5. That's enough concentrated awesome for me.
