Conference had two good things about it, Uncharted 2 which looked amazing and Assassins Creed 2.
The rest was boring, sales talk included, and God of War 3 was like what? That looks boring as shit, what happened?
The "wand" was funny as hell, because between motion plus and Natal, it just seems like it doesn't matter.
God of War 3 looked like more God of War with impressive visuals, basically. Not necessarily something I'm excited about, but you can see why people are interested.
The wand looks better than motion plus and Natal, I thought. It has many strengths of the Natal project but still allows the use of buttons (which I do believe is important) and is actually near completion (who knows when Natal will hit). Motion Plus is an improvement, but it's pointing capabilities are still based on IR, you only get one hand with quality motion tracking, and it's tied to shitty Wii hardware.
I'm not a huge motion control fan, but the Sony solution seems like the best of the three.
Assassin's Creed 2 was actually disappointing for me in that they seem to have done nothing to improve the design of the game. It's still going to be the same type of information gathering followed by an assassination. They've simply added more toys to the mix rather than trying to improve the repetitive and boring formula of the original. They completely missed the boat.
