I haven't read the thread or followed E3 but this really caught my attention. This as unlikely news as anything. Wii won't ever get cool stuff, it's just not possible for that console.
The N3DS however... /drool
Does anyone have a link for a streaming of the PS3 conference?
No, Stop being so shallow minded. There are plenty of good games on the Wii already, so your point is null.

It's a short video playthrough of the Zelda demo. The controls look a lot smoother than they did in the presentation, which is great.

I'm not going to make a discussion out of this. The wii has been out for years and for years it has produced games that I have no interest in. So now it has CoD: Black ops coming for it? Well have fun with that and your mario games while I blast off on Fallout/Oblivion/Rockstar games.
Wii is pure ***.

So The Old Republic is supposed to be just a huge game of Jedi and Sith... that would be WAY too plain.
I am hoping that the different classes you pick also make the story you progress through completely different. If you are a trooper you are going to have different missions than a smuggler or a Jedi.
I am really hoping for something great here, and I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt instead of bashing what I dont know.

Siren.Kuz said: Odin.Zicdeh said: Trailer pretty much sums up everything that's wrong in making a Star Wars MMO.
Jedi = Super secret doom fortress that's virtually unkillable.
So other classes = Why?
Honestly, I would really think differently if all there was was Jedi/Sith to pick as playable class(Or a total absence of, but then it wouldn't be Star Wars), but having to Balance a Sith or Jedi with something stupid like a Smuggler, means that even if you just buff the Smuggler, part of the "Omg JEDI!" Factor is lost, because Lolsmuggler just whooped your *** with Spice from Kessel or some ***.
OK...is there anything you DO like that isn't PC/First Person Shooter?
because so far you're just pissing on anything and everything being announced.
I actually don't own a real Gaming PC any more, I just wish everyone wasn't tossing their salad over the console wars and focus on the games instead.
I also actually despise most FPS. The one exception (non PC) would probably be Bioshock. But I consider that more of a First person Narrative, with some weak Shooter mechanics.
Do you not agree that's a good point with a Star Wars MMO though? I mean, what IS the point of having Jedi if they have to be balanced with a Smuggler, a Normal Trooper or something. Only the Bounty Hunter really gets Exception to that Rule, cause everyone's favorite Teal-clad Deathmachine Boba Fett has slain many a Jedi.
And if stating facts is Pissing on stuff, I guess I'm a diabetic pregnant woman, because nothing I've said is false. Just Observations, I'm not even talking quality here you know. I've no doubt that the next Zelda will be a fanatstic, masterful piece of work, but at the end of the day, it's the same masterful work we've seen time and time again. Think of it like a remix of your favorite song. Doesn't make it any less awesome, but it is, at heart, the same ***.

Again, that's the inheriet problem with a Star Wars MMO. You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't.
And I am a huge Star Wars fan. Not of the Lucas Ball-licking caliber, but the kind who can deconstruct the Trilogy and actually prove the Rebels as the Bad Guys.

PS3 is for the hardcore gamers who want to play crap games in superb graphics and go on the internet and play blu-ray all in one unit.
Wii is for gamers who go for gameplay more than "ZOMG AWESOME GRAFFIX" and actually have fun playing and not get as aggrivated.

Dunno about PS3 but I'm sure it's nearly the same.
Logic that PS3/360 are hardcore fails badly. Gaming consoles are for gaming, period.

Ah ha, it may be more of a family console but that doesnt make it any more inferior to any other console it just shows that it sells to a completely different type of gamer... the MUCH more common gamer these days, the casual gamer.
Wii has completely changed the gaming industry and you can tell by Microsoft and Sony copying them. Imitation is the finest form of flattery.
If Sony/360 is so superior then why are they imitating?

The Wii isn't a perfect console, but simply bandwaggoning on it saying it's bad (Especially after such a super E3 line up) is simply shallow minded stupidity.

Do you mean FFXI is just a rework of another FF game, or do you mean it's a rework of an MMO.
The Former is absolutely incorrect. No other FF game (That came out prior) Shares the Singleplayer/character control base of FFXI, not to mention the some two-thousand asshats you have to fight to get a stupid hat on a daily basis. And let's not even begin with the DramaLama.
If you mean it's a Rework of Another (Or every other)MMO... Well. Yah. It is. Level up, few thousand people. Some money. Boom, MMO. The Main differentiating factor between MMO's nowadays is really the community they breed. For Example
FFXI's community is perhaps the tightest knit community. This stems from one character having access to all the classes, as well as the slight incentive to only focus on one character (Addional fees) Reputation follows you like a shadow in FFXI.
WoW community is based on Epeen stimulated by the arbitrary "Gearscore" number. A totally unknown person with a massive gearscore generally will always be "Right"
Warhammer Online is all about *** over EVERYONE. They actually have a title given to you for helping the GM's ban x No. of Accounts. As such, there tends to be grave animosity between pretty much everyone. A friend described warhammer Online as "Fun until you get banhammered, then you go back to WoW"

I'm not calling the wii a family console because of the quality of the games. I'm calling it a family console because of the nature of the majority of the games. It requires you to stand and/or use the controller in a dynamic way.
I like my games best lying around and farting away my worries.
How about a thread to discuss E3? As we all know E3 is in full swing, so here's a thread to discuss non FFXI/XIV related news.
I'll start us off:
Natal / Kinetic pricing to be: $149.99 in gamestop.
too much? too little?
Personally I'm finding it to be too expensive for what it is. I'm not a fan of Natal simply because to me it feels like it's moving into the realm of Wii gimmicks. Microsoft to me did well with the 360 to avoid these gimmicks, it's built as a gaming machine, not a glorified party object.
