What's the general flow of news out of E3? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Stompy · 05-11-2004, 10:37 AM

Do they (gaming sites) usually gather all the info then wait till the event is over to post the trailers and gameplay news, or do they usually report it as it comes in?

Also, what's a good source for E3 news? I've been checking out IGN.com, but other than Doom 3 and Halo 2, they don't have much news on it (yet).

Can't wait to see GTA: San Andreas.. and hopefully Final Fantasy 12 (if Square-Enix is even showing it this year).

You'll get most of the updates after the show closes. Sporadic updates during the day depending on what site is updating when. Gamespot has a live feed going I think...but thats really not going to help. I don't think San Andreas is going to be on the floor, at least from my sources

probably behind closed doors. Which makes me think they arent as far a long as they said the game is.

IGN's following E3 pretty closely, I just found a nice series of pictures from there about the new Legend of Zelda GCN, I'll post.

They's some nice graphics, yep.

BADASS! I like the new shade of green of his tunic.
It looks more mature.
Color me impressed.

Thanks, bltzkriegmcanon.

I'm drooling over STALKER... i mean... wow

I think this game will be GOTY for 2004... it's just... wow

Not to be a buzzkill but Windwaker looked amazingly not cartoony when they posted screenies of it at first.

Thats what it looks like now but if the system can't handle those kind of graphics with at least 4-5 enemies on the screen at the same time then they'll dull them down from that.

I'm willing to bet that those graphics aren't off a GC but rather on a computer also. That's how they did it for Windwaker too.

Of course I really really really really really really really hope they prove me wrong on that one.

I hope you're not talking about the tech demo with link fighting ganon

because that was never windwaker

Menoman · 05-13-2004, 11:56 PM

No I mean they had a demo that started out with the windwaker startout screen then they went into some of the fights and the boating scenes and they looked nothing like current windwaker.
