Still trying to find any image/video of the 3ds at work.

Infuckingcredible.. 3DS aint bad either :p

I think Sony had the better press conference. So many exclusive stuff.
Twisted Metal
Infamous 2
Killzone 3
LittleBigPlanet 2
MotorStorm Apocalypse
Final Fantasy XIV
Gran Turismo 5 (November 2nd)
SOCOM 4
Portal 2 (well, it'll be on PC too and with it comes Steam???)
And then there were the good PSP titles:
God of War: Ghost of Sparta
Patapon 3
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
All the PS Move stuff looks less gimmicky. Sorcery looked nice.

Xbox 360 didn't have as many exclusives as I thought.
Gears of War 3
Halo: REACH
and I really don't remember much else.
I do remember a few neat Natal---I mean Kinect things. But really, everything had a lot of lag.
New Xbox 360 slim design. (which reminds of of Alienware)

Nintendo had has some original stuff. And very exclusive stuff.
Epic Mickey might be decent.
Kirby Epic Yarn (don't ask why it's epic...but it looked neat)
Goldeneye
Zelda: Skyward Sword (IDK but I'm just not feeling this one)
Golden Sun 3
Donkey Kong Country Returns (looks good)


Really, I honestly think I'm most excited to see Mortal Kombat coming back to it's roots. I'm also excited about Onlive and other game streaming services. I think it's the future. Playstation Move looks nice only because of there not being any lag. But I do say that Kinect has potential, I just think they are releasing it early.

Oh my Goood.

It was originally just rumored to be a tech demo but was confirmed to be a real remake.

EDIT:
Sony's conference was neat, but not exciting. We knew about most of that stuff.

Also Portal 2 and FFXIV are definitely not exclusive to the PS3.

Why is it that remakes are commanding such interest over new titles? Like, people want a FFVII remake more than a new FF.

Because a lot of fans, including myself, think that what SE's doing now pales in comparison to the work they did and the games they released in the 90s. Personally I believe in this to the point where I'm not sure if I'd be sad if SE never released a FF again, after the bullshit that was FF13. Their games now just fucking suck. And it isn't nostalgia either, I enjoy a lot of new games in the modern generation, but I really feel SE has dropped the ball since the days of the Chrono series, Xenogears, 90s FFs, Secret of Mana, etc etc. Give me those type of games back.

FFVII is one of those games I feel would gain a lot with a remake because it has so much unmined potential for a second run. Updated graphics, an updates translation, a (possible) updated plot to fit in with the other FFVII games they released, improved gameplay, etc etc. It isn't just about making the graphics better or whatever. It's about taking FFVII from the rough, almost shoddy PS version into the new generation. Best case scenario, anyway.

I am saying that games aren't as fun the second/third/fourth time. The psychologists sez that we are hardwired to find learning fun and we do most of our learning in the first time through. The second time can be fun in a slightly different way because we refine what we learn from the first go round, but after "mastering" the game, it is never as fun.

That's why remakes have to be more than shiny new graphics and offer stuff like improved gameplay, more to offer in the setting/world, updated translation (if necessary). extra stuff, etc etc.

This E3 sucked. I've never been a fan of Nintendo, but they owned this thing. I was hoping for more surprises from Sony.

Highlights: Golden Sun 3 (only game I was actually surprised to see), and the Parasite Eve 3: The third birthday trailer (looks much better than I had expected, especially for a game that started out for phones).
