E3 2009: Sony And Nintendo Press Conference

2 06 2009

Sony
Sony had a really great showing which surprised me a lot. I was not expecting much and they really blew me away. Uncharted 2 looks great, I am really looking forward to M.A.G and in general they cut the crap and showed a lot of good stuff. The PSP GO! looks like a very cool device. I will not be getting one but at last a lot of cool PSP games are coming including Metal Gear and GT finally. Final Fantasy 7 is also out today for the PSP so that should be very cool and can’t wait to check it out if Sony put it up in Europe.

On the downside the motion controller stuff they showed was a joke and I do not see it going far. FF 14 was a surprise which dropped a bit after we found out its an MMO but still very cool for fans of FF11 online. I think Sony have learnt a lot from the past and are ready to push us a lot of really cool games. Never before have I been so happy to own a 360 and PS3 at last the PS3 is starting to feel like an equal. I would give them a B+ not just as good as the Microsoft one but very close.

Great job Sony feeling very happy with my PS3 and PSP at the moment.

 

Nintendo
Not great did not show a single game that’s going to be really great for the “hardcore”. No thanks to Mario Galaxy 2 and the new metroid looks OK but dated it just has CG cut scenes now. Held of selling my Wii but looks like it will go on ebay soon. D- for Nintendo from me. Some good stuff for DS coming. Still love them for doing a remake of Pokemon gold.
