twitter

Quote

We are excited to reveal our brand new universe and game during the EA Press Conference on Monday, 12:30 PDT, on SpikeTV #fb

Rumors say--third person game

It's a fresh, new IP: Clatchet and Rank. You play as a robot with all kinds of cool guns, and you have a fox buddy that follows you around and makes jokes.

why is E3 starting on a monday though? Doesn't Friday or Saturday make more sense...

magus · « **Reply #3 on:** June 04, 2011, 11:49:50 AM »

it's a shooter where you take the role of a robot that use comical weapons to fight against aliens

I remember when E3 was one of the most exciting moments of the year for me. I didn't even realize until a few days ago that it was next week.

maxy · « **Reply #6 on:** June 04, 2011, 12:04:47 PM »

Two things

1.Reveal at EA conf and not at MS conf--MS doesn't care or too much Kinect stuff to show

my guess--combination of both

2.If the game is too similar to their previous games,people will go--meh,same thing under different name

I expect some scfi game(tons of weapons,gadgets),realistic setting

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #7 on:** June 04, 2011, 12:06:29 PM »

no one cares about insomniac games they're a C tier developer. only xbots on the internet care about them because it's a talking point.

it's not like when Bungie went multiplatform and release games on PS3. thats big news. Insomniac releasing games on Wii and 360 isnt

cool breeze · « **Reply #8 on:** June 04, 2011, 12:18:46 PM »

Insomniac release list has been sketchy. One ok shooter, two ok/good Ratchet games, a bad shooter, and a great Ratchet game. I've lost interest in Resistance 3 and that Ratchet party game looks dull. But it could turn out good, maybe.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

It was huge back when the web was in its infancy. Now we know everything before it happens and get HD streaming videos/playable demos at home.

I went to the show back in '97 and '98 when it was here in Atlanta. That was great...walk around a play some games n' ogle booth babes for a couple of hours, then go home. Was convinced to go to the '99 and 2000 shows in L.A., but that's when I started getting bored. '99 was fine since we basically arrived there and went right back home after one day, but in 2000 we went for all three days, and it was so fucking boring. I was still a little too young and not prepared to try going elsewhere on my own, and all my friends did was stay at the show all day, then sit in the hotel room at night. $:-\$ I quit going after that.

that and there are like ten other big game shows now. a few years ago there wasn't a pax, and now there are two. and gamescom. and gdc is basically mini-e3 now. and comicon has more game stuff. and then a lot of companies don't bother waiting, like how Sony announced the PSP2 at a randomly scheduled event, or Bioshock Infinite was revealed randomly.

e3 is less important in general now, even if you still care about game news

Quote

DUST 514, the FPS console counterpart to CCP's sci-fi MMO EVE Online, is due for a big announcement at E3 2011 if this countdown clock is any indication. One fan went poking around through the site shortly after it went live and found some interesting things, since removed.

First would be these seven screenshots (gallery below), all of which appear to be new. Our tipster found a .jpg in a URL left exposed, ran the filename from 01 to 07, and came up with these. Note the PS3 branding at the bottom of the screenshots.

The tipster says he then found the .xml file that will replace the countdown once it reaches zero, and that page directs viewers to the PlayStation Blog after the end of DUST 514's live-streamed announcement.
