Sega at Electronic Entertainment Expo
« on: June 04, 2012, 12:31:40 am »
Figured this could use a thread seeing as it starts tomorrow or something.
I think they announced their line-up and if previous year's experience is anything to go by we shouldn't hold our breath for any surprises (although where the fuck is Bayonetta 2? It was rumored for TGS last year, and then there was all that 'lololol wait and hear big news next week' that never eventuated), but it still might be worth having a thread to keep all their Monkey Ball trailers and XBLA ports gameplay in one place.

Thoughts, dreams, expectations?
Also my dad works for Xbox and told me that Shenmue III: Zulu Sunset is totally going to be announced as a launch title for Xbox Waveburn (the new Xbox console).

MadeMan I know our trolling us lol. I wish there were some surprises that hasn't been announced from Sega yet. I'm waiting on new info on ASRT with some Shinobi game play.

On the topic of surprises, what ever happened to the shining force news that they were hyping way back and seemingly never eventuated?

Biggest surprise I would expect is jsr and anarchy  release dates.

It's that time of the year again.

I'm counting down the time to see what's in store at Microsoft's E3 Press Conference.

Halo 4 & Fable: Shithouse Rail-shooter for Kinect edition.

Hopefully some other stuff too, but I can't think of anything really big that's in the pipeline from them. I think MS and Sony might make mention of a new console too, now that the Wii U is around the corner, I think they'll want to follow suit.

Sony will probably have The Last of Us and Smash Bros: Playstation.

It'll be interesting to see how the Wii U turns out with Nintendo and if they have anything at all left in the tank for Vanilla Wii. Wii U controller has already undergone some changes I understand, the horrible analogue nub thingies from the 3DS have been scrapped in favour of proper analogue sticks and they've fixed the button layout a bit. Will be interesting to see what games they have to show off. My guess will be some Mario tech demo and Smash Bros.

Can't really think of much else that I'm really excited for to be honest. Would be cool if Sega announced the next Total War game, but I think Leipzig or one of those Euro events would be more likely. E3 is really a console show first and foremost.

I think its probably too soon for a new Total War game unless it is another expansion to Shogun but I think they have done all the expansions the planned.


I wouldn't mind seeing CA's Alien game they had in production which is supposed to be similar to Dead Space.

Also that new HardLight (is that what they were called) game for Vita, did I read it was supposed to be similar to the Uncharted series or did I imagine that? Either way want to see what they have in the works.

But for some reason I doubt any of these will be at E3 unfortunitly.

I imagine the only surprises will be Wii U games. Allstars Racing Transformed is a given, maybe Sonic 4 Ep 2, some other Sonic title, and I'd be stunned if there wasn't a Monkeyball game releasing in the launch window. The Wii-U-pad would be perfect for graffiti editing in Jet Set Radio, they could probably slightly modify the Vita features to match.

I hope they show more Vita & 3DS support, and more quality XBLA/PSN ports or originals.

There's already some cool stuff lying around the Interwebs:

First off, there's an interview for The Cave
The creator of Monkey Island himself... I feel unworthy to even stare at him.
Anyway, Gilbert drives home the point that this game is a 100% pure Adventure game. It's also has a Bastion-style narrator.

A new Aliens: Colonial Marines interview with Randy Pitchford himself. He really gloats at this game.

That's about it right now.
