» Famitsu, are you kidding me?
I just read an article at QJ site here which mentioned that Famitsu got the early copies of some PS3 games and reviewed them. Resistance: FoM got 8.25 of average score? Ridge Racer got 9? What hell are those Japs smoking at? Ok, let’s face it. Resistance’s developer always said that they truly believe Resistance will be a triple A title; and my understanding is that 8.25 is just A-, not even double A. I don’t give a damn to Famitsu, it’s just a small gaming magazine office which is run by small Japanese people in a small country called Jap@n, and I don’t care about their small review scores. I heard that Japs traditionally are not interested in first person games, so I guess that all the other reviewing websites in other parts of the world will give at least 8.25 or better review scores. Now, I have some ideas on how the next-gen games will get for review scores.
Gears of War will receive about 6.5~7.5 scores (graphics: 10, gameplay: 6, sound: 6, Etc); this game is f@cked up. This game can only support maximum of 8 for net mode because X360 isn’t powerful enough to support more. Call of Duty for X360 is a total joke and boredom itself (read on more below to see why CoD 2 on the X360 is a total joke).
I watched high definition footages of Ridge Racer 7 and it was, hmm, good. Actually, the graphics of RR7 is better than any other racing games currently exist on the earth. That game natively is run in 1080p (1920x1080 progressive scan) mode while maintaining 60 frames per second (60fps simply means the game runs silky smooth). Famitsu says that RR7 is totally satisfactory and wholly pleasing. I don’t like the style of RR7; it’s too easy and all about drifting though.
Now, it’s this new Gundam. This one had some nice graphics but the multiplayer mode is just a standard team death match sh@t. I don’t know how this slow moving robotic game received 8/10 score.
Sega Golf got 7, and I think this game just looks like a current-gen game and couldn’t have received more than 5/10; or this title could just be made for the PS2.
Genji? Kidding me? This got 7.25. This game is just another running-and-slashing game with no brains, there’s no depth to it. They say this game’s challenging for beginners, and from the footages I have seen, it’s only challenging because you have to endure great amount of boredom all the time while playing this sh@t.
Of course, in the end, review scores don’t mean much (lol, I wonder why I have spent all the last many minutes to write all the above paragraphs). Xbox 360’s launch games got very good scores: Perfect Dark Sh@t, Kameo: a-very-long-and-non-sense-name-which-I-don’t-bother-to-remember, Et Cetera. Those X360 games which got very high scores all turned out to be total jokes. The best X360 game exists is Call of Duty 2; and it can only support maximum of 8 players for online; I played it for a while and it became extremely boring; now my Xbox 360 console is mainly used as a door stopper while I ventilate my room; this heavy Trashbox360 console will not be even blown away even there’s a hurricane right on it; I’m so surprised that my Trashbox360 doesn’t have the function to dispose garbage in it – like a paper shredder. The online mode must support at least 16, or that game is a total joke; moreover, CoD2 on the X360 is so laggy too. The future for PS3 couldn’t be brighter.

» wait a minute
so they changed the date to about several months later gave it a new name. The whole reason E3 was shut down was because it was to big. No your telling me the new "E3" gets a new name? I think this was to simpley avoid old E3 restrictions by renaming it.

» I think it's that "E3"'s become a generic term
The actual E3 is still the "downsized E3" that's business centric. GamePro Expo's technically a brand-new event that nevertheless contains the spirit of the "bloated E3." In other words, it's not "renaming." IDG stepped up to provide the same bloated-E3 extravaganza that ESA will no longer provide starting this year because ESA wants to concentrate on gaming business, not gaming. When I said "the new E3," I'm referring to the generic big-gaming-expo thing.
