Sony E3 Press Conference – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Page 2

Gran Turismo PSP – Looks and plays amazing; this is a real GT experience with 800 cars and a huge amount of tracks. This could change the way portable racers are looked at forever.

Resident Evil Portable – Not many details aside from the fact that it is a new Resident Evil experience developed especially for the PSP. That is truly a great thing; imagine an RE5 style experience on the PSP? I can, and it sounds great.

Fat Princess PSP – Again, not much is known about this game. It is not a port but a separate experience for the PSP. Kind of odd that they have not even proven the game is great (looks like it though) and they are making a PSP version.

Final Fantasy VII leading the influx of 50 PS1 classics to PS Store – We have been asking for a while and it looks like they are finally ready to deliver. Final Fantasy VII is the big lead in and I am sure it will quickly rise to the top of the sales list. Looking forward to the rest of this year to see what they release.

Agent – For a long, long time we have heard that Rockstar had a PS3 exclusive in the works. Agent is their answer to the questions. Set during the Cold War, Agent could be anything, but if Rockstar's pedigree is any indication, it will be great!

All of them are exclusives, all of them are amazing looking and all of them will be monster sellers for the platform.

Assassins Creed PS3 & PSP interaction – Showing a unique and exciting presentation of Assassins Creed 2 for the PS3, we learned that the independent PSP game, Assassins Creed Bloodlines, will interact with the PS3 version. They showed us there are great ideas for this in the past with Resistance and I am sure they will have some great ones here.

New Motion controller – It can simulate a gun for an FPS, a sword and shield for an action game or any other object. The responsiveness seems amazing and the potential is huge. It needs a killer application and a low price point to succeed; if that happens it could change gaming.

The Bad


More Home additions with no improvements
– Still no unlimited use game spaces, still no streaming video, just more tacked on areas and virtual items. Please listen to your base Sony; fix these fundamental problems.

    Glad to see so many games. My PS3 blu-ray to game ratio is about 100 to 1, would be nice to see that change.

    Yes! Sony is coming out with a UMD exchange program of some type for the PSP Go!

    I honestly thought the ModNation Racers was one of the highlights for the show.
