I will pick up heavy rain one day.

So Ellen Page is in BEYOND and The Last of Us?

Ceric · « **Reply #152 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:15:15 PM »

This demo has now pasted to the to long point.

BEYOND (btw, I'm sure the IGN audience loved that) looks amazing graphically, but I'm still waiting for actual user interaction to show up. And for all David Cage's bluster about the greatness of Ellen Paige, she sure hasn't had to do anything in this trailer.

EDIT: So David Cage's big plan was to show the boring stuff as the demo, and put all the cool-looking stuff in the sizzle reel? Eh...

Yes please Beyond. Absolutely awesome.

Pretty sure she did motion caption for this as well.

Come on, Sony...show us some NEW characters for Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. Cool to see cross-platform play, though, with the Vita version.

Drake. Who was the other one? Was he from Bioshock?

It was the Big Daddy from Bioshock. I'm disappointed that they only unveiled two new characters when this game is releasing in just 3-4 months.

ZombiU looks really cool outside the name. When your character dies he turns into a zombie and you play a new survivor. You can then find your old zombified character and take the stuff you had back.

I didn't notice before but in the trailer the zombie that eats the next person is always the person fighting the zombies in the last picture.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #160 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:32:03 PM »

That makes me happy. LBP2 for free gets me excited.

broodwars · « **Reply #161 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:33:47 PM »

I hate when journalists are paid off with these "free gifts". Infamous 2 and LittleBigPlanet 2 for free is nice, though.

PS1 Classics on Vita later this Summer? Cool, but you promised this 4 months ago!

EDIT: No demo for Call of Duty: Black Ops - Declassified?

broodwars · « **Reply #162 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:37:58 PM »

Ah, the reported Assassin's Creed for Vita starting a black woman assassin. That definitely looks promising to me, so long as Ubisoft doesn't screw it up.

Incidentally, I'm noticing a distinct lack of Desmond Miles this entire day.

Long and long trailers.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #164 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:46:13 PM »

Heh, he's calling the multiplayer part a second game. That's just funny.

This press conference has been lame so far. The games look cool enough, but there's too little of them and very little new. Plus, it's mostly 3rd party stuff. Where are all the Vita games Sony needs to announce?

Ymeegod · « **Reply #166 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:50:36 PM »

Just watched the demo of "watch dogs"....great stuff IMO, an GTA clone with a twist. Good stuff.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #167 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:51:06 PM »

He just said the PS3 has more motion controlled experiences than any other platform. I guess the Wii is no longer a platform.

broodwars · « **Reply #168 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:51:49 PM »

Sony's talking about Move when they have so many more important things to talk about. Goddamn it, Sony. Well, I guess Sony's abandoned the Vita.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #169 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:53:12 PM »

Wonderbook looks interesting. I think my son would like that in a year or two.

broodwars · « **Reply #170 on:** June 04, 2012, 09:54:55 PM »

*starts metaphorically banging my head into the nearby wall.*

Argh...so much stupidity on the part of Sony with this conference. They're not supporting their new handheld with new games, they're talking about new Move games, and they've spent considerable time on 3rd party games rather than their own.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #171 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:01:42 PM »

Demo is WAY too long.

Dasmos · « **Reply #172 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:03:34 PM »

This is embarrassing.

This demo is reminding me way too much of Nintendo's abysmal Wii Music press conference. So many things getting screen time when so many other things need it more, especially Vita games. Things like this press conference are why Sony's stock is in the toilet. They're showing no confidence whatsoever in the Vita. I'm just beyond furious at Sony right now for their abysmal handling of Vita.
