"E3 Games ..."

Aww, look, a topic just for the games. How cute.

...

Yeah, so, to start with we've got some Pokémon RPG footage, looking rather ... er ... cute. Gits:

And some of the Mario + Luigi 2 footage, which looks fantastic - will be, too, if the GBA one is anything to go by. I think I saw three of each person at one point ... and some little ones. Erk.

And not only do we have Mario Baseball, we have some other random realistic baseball game from Ninty as well. So they .... *snooze*

And I just read about the new Prince of Persia.
One word: ballhats.

Now you go.

I'm probably going to get an Xbox 360 this year, simply because Nintendo haven't been convincing at all. They've shown nothing - I don't know what the controller is like, what games are going to be available, and when it's out. Sucky.

Nah, screw that.

IGN 360 are splurting their loads everywhere about all the 360 games. I might end up getting one for Christmas if the games are good. Apparently a new FPS called Gears of War will be the new Halo, and it does sound good, but hmmm.

I got that Geist has some nice enough ideas, but can't pull them off properly. Which may be the same thing. Although, also that the whole possesion thing is a bit over-done. Erk.

Yeah, Zelda all the way. I don't really care about any other GC games.
November.
Oh yeah.

I look forward to OoT being ass-fecked most of all.

According to IGN Geist is great but just not very technically accomplished.

Zelda is all I really care about, though. There are some nice 3rd party games and whatnot, but so far the show has been pretty disappointing in terms of GC games.

I'm gonna talk more about the games, to try and illeviate my crushing dissapointment at Ninty.

...

Yes.

So ... Odama is supposedly excellent. Although you have to use the microphone to control the troops. That's just put me off ... I'm never going to talk to a game, no matter how much you want me to.

Advance Wars / Batillion Wars is a pile of ass.

Geist is a dissapointment.

Shadow the Hedgehog could be rather good, if they sort a few things out. I don't really care, though.

VJ DS rocks the socks.

Pokémon is shaping up very nicely ... except that, as we said, it's not very 'dark' as it was supposed to be. But everything else looks good.

I'm guessing (well, more hoping, down on my knees) that it's a very, very early kind of thing ... and perhaps everything will change before it finally comes out.

Pokémon can do dark, though. All that Mewtwo evil lab stuff was pretty funky - more like that.

Pokemon looks awful, but as a concept it's excellent. Hope it doesn't turn out a wasted opportunity because at the moment it seems pretty dodgy. How on earth anyone can say it has a dark slant is beyond me.

Zelda however, for me, has been the most exciting thing of the show.

Indeed, indeed.
I love it already.

Except it's on the DS.
