Nintendo Conference = Big Letdown
I was all hyped up. I was ready for the best conference ever. Then Nintendo presented that piece of crap to me.I didnt watch it on TV I did the Gamespots live blog because the TV station E3 is on wasnt working. The only good games were that they announced a GTA for DS, Spore Creatures DS, Animal Crossing revieled (surprise). There was a cool thing called Wii Speak for Animal Crossing that is a speaker that picks up all the noise in your room and sends it to people on Wi-Fi. Shaun White demos his Balance Board-compatible Wii exclusive which was kinda cool but kinda corny (At least they got a bigger star than Duffy). And there was also a game called Wii Sport Resort which is weird because it really doesn't have sports at all, its more like Wii Play. It has jet skii and sword fighting that uses the Wii Motion Plus. It even comes with a Motion Plus and Wii Jacket. But the biggest letdown was that instead of announcing a Zelda, Kid Icarus, Kirby, Pikmin, or Donkey Kong; they spent most of the time talking about Wii Music. It is a stupid game that all you do is play music. You dont even have to hit notes like you do in Guitar Hero or Rock Band, instead the song plays for you. The only difference you can make is what instrement you play by the way you hold the Wii mote. They didnt make any huge announcements, there biggest games were Animal Crossing and GTA DS. I was expecting more and was terribly dissapointed.

Microsoft Press Conference
Microsoft held there annual E3 press conference today at 1.30 pm ET.I watched it on G4? They started with a trailer of Fallout 3 which was okay but could have been better. Then followed a Gears of War Gameplay Footage which was excellent. At the end of the gameplay, there was a cutscene where there was an injured brumak and they decided to ride it and said "if they can ride it why cant we". The majority of the conference was about X-Box Live and the new dashboard. The 360 will have a new dashboard and on the gamertag you will be able to create an avatar just like a Mii that you can play as in various games. There was also a Viva Pinata 2 and Banjo Kazooie; Nuts and bolts trailer. Then they showed a bunch of X-Box Live games like Scene It, 1 vs 100,Geometry Wars and one of the biggest surprises and best downlodable; Portal: Still Alive. Even though it is a downloadable game, it was still a huge announcement.. There was a guest appearance by the singer Duffy as she played a music-based game called Lips. I was unnimpressed honestly. Get someone better than a crappy one-hit-wonder to sing for an audience of gamers in one of the worlds largest conventions. They also announced that resident Evil 5 will have online co-op and shown some gameplay footage of that. But the biggest announcement had to be that Final Fantasy XIII will not be a PS3 exclusive and will come to the 360 as well. Overall it was an allright conference. I just think they spent a little to much time talking about X-Box Live.

E3 Starts Tomorrow.
E3 2008 will kick of tomorrow with the Microsoft Press Conference. Nintendo and Sony will have their conferencesTuesday.If you want to go to e3 you are out of luck because it is closed for the public for the second year in a row. But you could create a video game website or magazine so you could be granted permision into E3. Or you could watch it here on Gamespot. But if you would rather watch it on TV you could watch it on G4 around 1 or 2 o'clock pm. G4 will televise all the conferences and floor reports all week long. I hope Nintendo will announce a whole lot of new software and a new handheld (I'm getting tired of the DS) and I heard Microsoft may announce a handheld. I hope to hear more on Animal Crossing Wii. I will be watching E3 all three days and blog about everything that amazes me ( prepare for alot of blogs).

I'm Finally Back

I went on vacation for the fourth of July a while back. Today is the first day I have been on the internet for 11 days. I'm sorry I haven't been on any of your blogs lately. I will try to catch things up. So what I really want to know is what happened since I was gone. Has there been any big video game news? I haven't heard any news yet. And for some strange reason I have no updates and I have been gone for 11 days. Please inform me. I'm going to go go check out some of your blogs right now.

2 Great Games Release on my Birthday

On my birthday, Sept. 29, two great games will be released; Wario Land Shake It! (Wario Land Shake in Japan) and Kirby Superstar DS which is a remake of the SNES all-star. These were 2 out of 4 games announced. Also Mario Super Sluggers will release on Aug 25. And some other game called Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir for the DS was announced. But I will likely get one out of the two games on my birthday with the birthday money I get. I'm not sure which one I will get, I will check GS and other sites first to see which is better. Which one do you think I should get? Wario Land might be better but Kirby Superstar will be $15 cheaper. I'm just glad that two good Nintendo characters finally get their own game for once (excluding SSBB).

Nintendo Going Core At E3/ Memory Solution

On my last blog post I posted a list of rumors about E3. I came along another list that shows a lot more games that are either confirmed or rumored. And I geniusly said that Nintendo didnt leak any of their games, but in this list a few are leaked. But don't get to excited because most of them are only rumored and most are probly not true. Some interesitng rumors are;

Legend of Zelda for Wii,Pikmin 3 for Wii,F-Zero for Wii, and Kid Icarus for Wii. Also i heard from other sites that Starfox and metroid dread will be mentioned at E3. I also heard that Nintendo plans on announcing several core games And on the site it said that red Steel 2 is confirmed.

The exact site is http://gonintendo.com/?p=46828#more-46828. I got the site from chocolate1325.

And I read at least 15 sites that claim that Nintendo is going to have a solution to the memory problem for the Wii.In an interview with Nintendo of Europe's Laurent Fisher, he said, "there's no plan to issue hardware, an external hard drive we have an issue in that area, it's very obvious". I'm not sure how they are going to fix the problem without a hardrive or external hardware but we'll have to wait and see.
