New Monkey Island!

I honestly thought we'd seen the last of this. Roll on July 7th!

Fallout 3 Video Game, E3 09: Point Lookout DLC Debut Trailer HD \| Game Trailers & Videos \| GameTrailers.com

The sheer amount of gaming videos I've watched already this week with E3 going is ridiculous, and it's only Tuesday!

The motion cap stuff announced for the 360 looks incredible. You guys see any of that?

That Point Lookout DLC looks fucking insane

I love E3

Me too.

I think both 360 and PS3 had great press conferences, lots of cool announcements, features, and games. Yet again I'm less than impressed with Nintendo's showing, though there are a few Wii games I'm admittedly looking forward to.

elevated_u2_fan · 06-03-2009, 01:15 PM

do you own a Wii?

u2popmofo · 06-03-2009, 01:26 PM

Yeah, I have a Wii. I seriously cannot remember the last time I played it. I've turned it on once since I moved into my new place in October, just to make sure it worked and was plugged in correctly. So it's at least been 7 months since I even turned it on, more than that since I actually played it.

I'm looking forward to a couple light gun games for it, the new Resident Evil one, and the Dead Space prequel. Both of the Mario games they showed look fun as well, but they both admittedly looked pretty much identical to their previous games.

Sort of a bummer of a gimmicky system at this point if you're a so called "hardcore gamer".

when are you getting a PS3?

When they lower the price.

I probably will at some point, just so I can say I have all 3. We'll see.

elevated_u2_fan · 06-03-2009, 03:59 PM

you could be waiting a while - bastards

they are apparently still losing something like $50 for each one they sell so I can see why they don't want to drop the price though...

That's what Microsoft always said about the original Xbox's pricing as well, so I'm never entirely sure how much I believe it.

LeMaC, I sold back a bunch of old stuff and paid off my preorder on Ghostbusters today. The wait begins. A friend lent me Assassin's Creed this morning though, so I'll have something to play while I wait.

E3 has me crazy for games. Damn E3.

elevated_u2_fan · 06-03-2009, 05:06 PM

I've almost completed Fallout and then I'm on to Bioshock, I know, I'm like 2 years late to that party...

I've had Mass Effect since the day it was released, and still haven't played it. It's good to have things to keep you interested during slow periods.

I've pretty much completed every quest and thing I can do on Fallout as a "good character" at this point as well, including the DLC. By the way, Broken Steel was awesome. You'll enjoy that. I guess there are only a few more weeks until Point Lookout.

LMP · 06-03-2009, 11:02 PM

There's a Bioshock/Elder Scrolls double pack coming out soon, elfa, if you want to wait.

Nice, are you getting the shirt, too?

I need to pre-order soon.
