E3 – Filled with wow…

This years E3 really does seem to be the best to date. Lots of stuff all round, much more than I am even going to mention in this post.  These are just the things that are my personal favourites.

Sony

  • 3D gaming with a demo of the upcoming exclusive, Killzone 3, expected February 2011.
  • Move (even though I feel it is a bit gimmicky)
  • LittleBigPlanet 2
  • PlayStation Plus
  • Portal 2, properly done for the PS3 & the trailer looks to have much more physics details

Microsoft

  • Kinect – previously Natal.  Lots on this as well, including some titles.
  • Gears of War 3
  • 360 Slim, built-in wifi & disc-scratching technology

Nintendo

  • 3DS – 3D gaming without glasses
  • The return of many classic nintendo characters

A wide range of games (non console exclusive) were also there

  • Call of Duty: Black Ops
  • Mortal Kombat
  • Sonic
  • Dead Space 2
  • F.E.A.R 3
  • Medal of Honor
  • Quantum Theory
  • Crysis 2
  • Silent Hill 8

I think, in time, I might add a bit more on some of these individually along with screenshots etc.

Bright Falls, the beginning of Alan Wake

Recently I came across live-action movies, Bright Falls, a prequel to the upcoming Xbox 360 game, Alan Wake.  The movies are taking place over what seem to be 6 individual episodes.  Airing started at the end of April and new episodes are released weekly, with the final episodes coinciding with the release of the game mid-May.

Episode 1 is available on Youtube.

It’s a shame this is a 360 exclusive , however as it is only single-player I am not going to be missing out on anything through not having a Gold Live Subscription.
