Let’s face it, The 3D Castlevania games have been good, but far from perfect. So this time Konami brings in Hideo Kojima and his Kojima Productions, And we all know that Hideo refuses to release a crappy product. One thing in this trailer makes it an instant buy for me, Patrick Stewart! ( Please don’t kill him off 2-3 minutes into this game ok? )

Another new Metal Gear Solid is coming out, And this one is for the PSP. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker takes place in the 1970’s and we get to follow Big Boss, and the construction of every soldiers dream, Outer Haven. Hideo Kojima let everyone know that this is a true Metal Gear Solid title, not a spinoff or remake. So could this be the game that takes place after the events in Metal Gear Solid 3 – Snake Eater and what takes place before the orignal Metal Gear title to the NES? From what we seen from the game it looks like there will be support for 4 player co-op. ( And everyone seems to be playing a different version of Big Boss )

Just like Microsoft, Sony also had a motion controller to show. At first when i saw the controller i burst out in laughter, it looked like a dildo with a ball on it, but was later revealed that it was just a prototype ( Thank god for that ). But then they showed what you could do. On the screen you can see yourself standing with the “dildo”, Then you can pick what the controller should be in-game.

We got to see the “dildo” turn into a tennis racket, baseball bat, sword, “light saber whip”, a bow etc. After seeing how it worked i must say i am impressed. Bravo Sony, in my book you won the motion controller war.

A New Super Mario Bros is coming to the Wii, It is a classic 2D sidescroller and it got 4 player co-op! Player 1 plays as Mario, Player 2 is the underdog Luigi, Player 3 is Toad and the player 4 is Toads retarded cousin or something. Good to see that 2D isn’t dead, Even on the next-gen systems.

Unveiled at Microsoft’s E3 conference was Natal, Microsoft’s new controller system that makes you the controller. I for one think it’s awesome as hell and I’ll probably buy it day 1 even if there aren’t many games for it. For those of you that haven’t watched the press conference Natal is a very smart dual camera unit that scans the room and records your movements and recognizes your voice. This means that you can jump around in your room freely instead of having to stand on a pad or use motion sensitive hand controllers. Think of it as a really advanced eye-toy. They demoed it on stage and it worked like a charm. Read more…

We reported a few days ago that a game called Halo: Reach was hinted / leaked on the net.The game have now been officially been announced alongside with the reveal trailer. It doesn’t show much, But like we had thought the game takes place on the planet Reach, where Master Chief and his fellow spartans trained to become the super bad ass soldiers they are. Unknown if the plot will follow the story in the novel Halo: The Fall of Reach by Eric Nylund.

Or could Halo: Reach be the MMO we been waiting for?

We knew this a while back due to some leaks of the game showed up on internet. Forza Motorsport 3 takes what was so successful with Forza Motorsports 2’s community. This time it will be much easier to editing your videos, paint your cars etc. Forza 2 looked good, But Forza 3 is stunning.

Oh, And the cars can flip around this time!!!!!

Crackdown 2 was finally officially announced during Microsoft press conference. Remember when you picked up the first one? To get access to the Halo 3 Beta, And then get addicted to finding agility orbs in Crackdown? Well the agility orbs are back, and they where even in the cinematic trailer that was shown. Seems like there will be a better story this time around, a virus is going around the city, Turning people into grotesque monsters. So mile high jumping and monster fighting. Can i has?

Gameplay from Modern Warfare 2 was shown during Microsoft press conference, Game looks like a worthy sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
And not only that, Xbox 360 will get exclusive ( timed? ) map packs to the title. Bet Microsoft paid a huge price for that one.
