Good confrence. They should let the people that know english talk tho lol.

Nintendo has a HUGE smile on...big after party
Sony....Are getting yelled by their bosses
and MS....are ok...They will get tipsy

MS hasn't had their conference yet....we will see.

Hopefully it won't include J Allard sitting in the middle of a floor again.

just saying they are ok They are doing fine, but they cant have as much hype as the other two since its already out.

Yeah, that's pretty much a given. MS's big items are the HD-DVD player and showing off the 2nd and 3rd generation of games.

(3 friends over + drunk off our ass + tryign to play tennis + breakign stuff )

playing granturismo or project gotham in ultra super mega definition that came to me on a 50GB polycorbonate disk by myself.....

QFT. Although the Wiiiii officially has the most retarded name for a console IMO.

Yeah, I'll be refering to it as "the Nintendo". I can't see myself asking my son if he wants to play with the Wii.

What's the point of good graphics if the games are horrible? The 360 has been thoroughly unimpressive so far, and even after 6 months there isn't more than a handful of decent games. With the price of the PS3 being ridiculous it looks like I'm buying the Wii, unless the Xbox games improve or theres a dramatic price drop.


Oblivion? Condemned? Kameo? Burnout? Tomb Raider?


Will there game play match that off Wii games? Are they as innovative as this idea? Hell no.

Are they fun? Hell yes.


But will they be as fun? Probably not. Not to mention they take you lazy gamers of your ass.

IMO, the only good games on the Xbox360 are games I can already play on my PC. And still think they look better too. COD2, Oblivion, Advanced Warfighter, Tomb Raider - sure these were all games I would of wanted on the 360, but only if I couldn't play them on my PC. So basically there has yet to be a single game I would actually buy a 360 to play, and it looks like Mass Effect will be the first.

I still think the PS3 looks the best thus far for games. Final fantasy XIII, God of War, GTA, GT - although I will probably have to wait and buy it when the price drops.

the problem is whether they will deliver..iirc everyone was sayingthat games will only be rendered @ 720p and 1080p at first:|

I was so looking foward to that Gundam game

People will pronounce it Why instead of Wee. For Wii did they name it this. Does Wii stand for something in japanese?

No it does not. The sound doesn't even exist in modern japanese, it is only seen in foreign words that have been japanified.

irtual Console: Wii will have downloadable access to 20 years of fan-favorite titles originally released for Nintendo 64, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) and even the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). The Virtual Console also will feature a "best of" selection from Sega Genesis titles and games from the TurboGrafx console (a system jointly developed by NEC and Hudson). It also will be home to new games conceived by indie developers whose creativity is larger than their budgets.

it just occured to me, pronouncing it "why" instead of "whee" sounds so much cooler. But yeah, being able to play Sega Genesis games is a huge plus in my book. It's a shame that we are goingto be charged for it though... at least make it cheaper, like $2/game.

Just watched the whole conference. I don't even care how much it costs anymore. I'm getting it the day it comes out.

A few doubts though - especially with how some of the games that they didn't show will be delivered. Like Tony Hawk, Sonic, etc. Red Steel, Metroid, Zelda, and Mario Tennis looked amazing, but the thing with the Wii is that if a game doesn't play well, it will bomb.

the thing about the wii is, it's not completely lacking in graphic power. even though its core processor is slower than its ps3, 360 counterparts, it's graphics processor is built by ATi and seems to be several times more powerful than the original gamecube.

I'm not really that excited about all games for the Wii using the new controller, but the tennis game they played at the end of the presentation really has potential. If they have enough games like that that really take advantage of the contorller, I'll buy one.

I was profuoundly disappointed by the PS3 presentation. Nothing really exciting there.
