E3 2006 -- Official thread!

*Slaps him again.*

Ok, this is getting old

You know, they were supposed to reveal Ganondorf @ E3... I am very dissappointed in it. 🙁

Okay, what's the deal with Killzone for the PS3? I seen the trailer:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5ROVhHtN_Y&search=killzone%20ps3

Real time or cinematics? Everywhere I look it says TBA 2007. I thought it was going to be for launch day in November?

Nonbody knows, and it was mysterious not at E3, especially considering it was the big draw last year.
Sony's official response is that the developer didnt want to spend time making an E3 demo.

It could be true, but if I were Sony, I would seriously show the game considering all the hype it had.

So the rumor between publications and TV personality is that the game didnt look at all like the trailer and Sony didnt want to show it because it would totally **** them up.

But we'll never know. I still say its CGI, but after playing Ghost Recon, I dont think its that far off from CGI. I guess we gotta what until we're shown actual gameplay footage.

Nah, it's not real gameplay at all. Pre-rendered stuff. The giveaway is the flawless framerate in the demo. If it was real time it wouldn't have perfect framerate, especially that early in it's life.

This game will probably look the same as Resistance: Fall of Man. That's my guess, anyways.

hmm, hes right, its too smooth

After watching it again I can see the game having that kind of graphics, really. It doesn't look any better graphically than Gears of War or the upcomming Raindbow Six game. But if it looks that good it won't have the smooth as butter framerate you see in that video. With so much going on there would be a pause or two.

NWN 2. The Toolset videos made me orgasm. (Or maybe that was the porn... not sure).

True.

The question if its taken from inscreen footage and made into a movie, pretty much like an in-game cutscene or if its completly CGI.
They're was no doubt that it was not actual real time footage.

I admit this game was getting my attention last year. I was hoping this year to see more of Killzone...just didn't happen.

Yeah, it's what everybody is saying.

But I agree with Backfire, Gears of War looks just as good in realtime. Just think what games will look like in the next couple of years. It's going to be amazing.

You can already see what games will look like in the next couple of years. http://media.pc.ign.com/media/694/694190/vids_1.html

Far and away the best looking game I've ever seen.

Definitly.

Just hope it's a tad different than Far Cry.

woah!!

It sounds like they're trying to take a really different approach with this game.

gears of war looks "WinBack" ish... where you're constantly hiding behind structures.. how is the 'face to face' game play?.. how do 2 people who arent hiding behind a structure going to fight it out?

taking cover seems to be the main focus (which isnt a bad thing mind you)... it just feels perfect dark zero inspired though.

I dont think so, its looks like its completely different in that its a lot harder to try and be the hero where you bust into a room full of enemys and start shooting and when they shoot back they dont hit you. This time you have to be more strategic in the way you want to kill your enemy which should give you more gameplay time and more replay value of the game.

You can say the same thing about GRAW.

To answer your question, the face to face gameplay looks neat from the E3 videos. From what I saw if you meet a guy, you can chainsaw him down. It also looks pretty nasty to.

Backfire, I hope your right.

Gears of Wars thing is it combines tactical 'GRAW' type battles with hardcore face to face battles. The guns have a chainsaw mounted on it for close combat.

Smas - Yeah, Crytek says they learned alot from FarCry and are working hard to avoid making the same mistakes, it's supposed to be a more story-driven FPS, and I heard at points you have a squad to control.
