wow, so many fumbles by game publishers this E3
I'm not sure anyone cared. Droves of publishers left the ESA this year, after all.

I'm not sure they ever announced what platforms that it would appear on, other than PC.. so for the time being that may be correct. I can't wait to see more APB. E3 sucked this year.. the more we continue the more no-shows we're bound to recall.

Hmmm, I wouldnt want to do a business with you that's for sure :p

Seriously though YES, companies are meant to make money out of the Olympics. I think your comparison doesnt apply here to be honest.

Schmooboo, the IOC is run by pimps and every host nation knows it. But no nation would ever turn down the chance to host such a prestigious and financially lucrative event.

The IOC should use it as their mantra.

All Bioware properties are up in the air now that EA decides what goes out of the studio's doors.

I don't know if Bioware is capable of doing more than one project at a time. The Star Wars MMO will probably require all of their attention.

Well, they have got Dragon Age for an early 2009 release.

Bioware has four development teams. They can definitely work on more than one project at one time. They're currently already working on more than one project at a time. Hell, they've been working on the MMORPG and Dragon Age for years.. all the while working on stuff like Mass Effect, and, I think it's safe to assume Mass Effect 2. That said, that covers four projects, and probably every team.. so.. no Jade Empire 2?

I also think it's a bit presumptuous to assume that EA would simply put all of Bioware's potential IP on hold. They bought Bioware for a reason.. and their not simply going to smother them.

I was being sarcastic, the Olympics bring many benefits to each host city/nation. But most of the time that city goes over budget. Which is why i was saying sarcastically that the host city doesn't really expect to make profit directly on the Olympic games, but all the businesses in that city as a whole profit greatly.

So back to E3, the idea behind E3 was to be THE gaming EXTRAVAGANZA... and it was cool and spectacular, now they tried to make it small and NOT lose money... Which basically killed the show. Theres nothing special, nothing happens at e3 that people didnt know about already, nothing spectacular is shown...

Besides FF 13 going to 360, the show was a waste of time.

Quite a few gaming sites are saying the same thing, but I have to disagree. Opening the show to the public wouldn't have changed things this year. Huge crowds and booth babes wouldn't have had an effect on the stink bombs that were the Nintendo and Sony's press conferences.

It would have been the same result, just more noise and eye candy.

I said this after last year's E3..............the convention has been placed too late in the year for it to be an effective news making event.

The show used to be in the spring and carried with it tons of new gaming information. By the time you reach mid-summer which is where we are now there really isn't anything new to report. What's coming by year's end has already been announced.

Newly announced titles excite but have no builds worthy of being shown on the convention floor. They create buzz to be sure, but the gaming community is far more sophisticated than it once was. They want to see gameplay, they want to see playable frames of those fantastic graphics the developing team is boasting about.

Right now studios are deep in their development cycles trying to either finish up for the holiday season or the nearest date possible for the following year. So not very many surprises to be had.

The GDC has become the early show to watch. Gears of War2 made it's debut there because it would have been ridiculous to wait until July to announce it. The same goes for a host of other titles. The ESA had the right idea but they just placed the show too late in the gaming year.

Looking over the 360 lineup maybe the most anticipated no-show for me is Aliens: Colonial Marines. If they are using the render updates for UE3 (especially screen space AO) this title could be a looker. Gearbox has already shown they have some skill in squad based shooters with BiA so *hopefully* the squad based mechanics are good. But the interesting part is 4 player coop in an Aliens theme as well as, possibly, Gloom (Q2 mod) like MP. Being able to play as marines or aliens would be very cool, especially if you could traverse vents, walls, and ceilings quickly and effortlessly. Toss in the ability to disable lights, lock of escape routes, etc... it could be a fun strategic game. Hopefully it isn't rushed. This sort of game should work with UE3 very well and Gearbox is a solid choice for the project.

I'd like to see split screen co-op in Aliens. But first and foremost, they need to get the horror effect just right, and all the shooting aspects, kickass graphics would certainly help.
