Most of these were quickly scribbled downs, so check back with Pixlbit for the full E3 scoop on Wiiu, 3DS, and the rest of E3 news.
Jason's eyes on impressions of the crazy 3D TV that allows two players to see the entire screen, rather than needing to split the screen.
Straight after the Sony press conference today, I was able to go, hands on - or more accurately - eyes on, with the PlayStation branded 3D TV. The TV as you have already heard is 24" and will be offered at release for $499. It's clear from the set up here, which is strewn with beer cans and looks like a frat house, that the TV will be marketed at college students.
Jason gets some hands on time with Twisted Metal, but more importantly gets the full scoop on the details of the game.
Brief hands on time with the latest build of Twisted Metal was available after the Sony press conference. During my hands on time, I learned that the game is scheduled for release in just a few short months on October 4. While I didn't have the opportunity to play much of the game, it was clear that it was a faster paced experience than what the series has offered in the past. Though brisker in pace, the game felt controllable and smooth, just as Nick reported at last year's E3.
Devil Survivor 2 is en route to the DS, while The King of the Fighters XIII will be coming to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
Today, Atlus surprised fans with the announcement of two new titles, one developed internally and one that will be published later this year. Devil Survivor 2, the follow-up to 2009's DS title, Devil Survivor, and upcoming 3DS title, Devil Survivor Overclocked, will be coming to the DS in 2012. The King of the Fighters XIII was also announced for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and will see release this holiday season.
The direct follow-up to Final Fantasy XIII also made an appearance at the Sony press conference.
We all know that Final Fantasy XIII was more of a linear experience - a trait that many long time fans of the series took issue with. While the game offered amazing graphics and a unique approach to the traditional RPG gameplay, for many it still left something to be desired. It was clear based on the brief demo I played, that XIII-2 would not follow that same linear structure. The world I encountered when I finally got to play the game was much more open, and perhaps contained more possibilities. I can't stress enough how much of an improvement this will be over the previous title if it manages to offer the same gameplay throughout the entire quest.
It's Riiiidge Ra... I mean, MooooodNation Racers!
