Scott Miller E3 Impressions - briefly
(hx) 11:34 PM CEST - May,15 2006 - Post a comment / read (4)
3D Realms' Scott Miller updated his blog with some impressions of E3. He liked Supreme Commander, was mildly pleased with BioShock and heard good things about Gears of War. Here's an excerpt:
Supreme Commander looked sweet. Might be the game that gets me RTS'n again.  Saw the trailer for Resistance: Fall of Man (typical dumb name, like Halo: Combat Evolved) and I love the idea, and the brief look of the game I saw. Hard to believe this is coming from Insomniac. Saw the Turok demo, and WTF? It was a 3 minute slide show! Doesn't even star a Native American -- they've gone the nameless soldier route. Guaranteed failure.

Overall impressions. There are a LOT of games that I would not have green-lit. A lot of followers, rather that leaders out there. A lot of clueless publishers thinking their little me-too game with a few changes here and there are going to carry the day. Um... no. Money down the drain. And way too many fantasy MMOs with interfaces that pretty much clone WoW's!

Eidos is one big failure of a publisher. Saw several of their lackluster games at the Nvidia booth, and they all looked last generation. The generically named Rouge Trooper is a big loser. Tomb Raider looked like a big pile of meh (yeah, I know it's been out, but been too busy to see it). And Hitman needs to be "Quickly Executed," because no one cares. The Eidos games were being played by Eidos reps only, as the world walked by. Oh how far Lara has fallen. And deservedly so given the lack of innovation.

Bioshock looks beautiful, but a little too slow paced for my liking. I'm sure it'll be a System Shock sized hit, though. Which is basically a mild hit, not a mega-hit.

Oh, and heard a LOT of negative comments about the Wii controller from developers who messed with it. Be very worried, Nintendo. Didn't get to see it myself because I didn't have 2+ hours to wait in line. What a dumb way to run a booth, meanwhile the open booths of Sony and Microsoft I explored fully.

Although I agree with some of his opinions (except for Bioshock and the Wii), I dont think a dumbass like Scott Miller should be saying bad things about games when we have no clue what Duke Nukem Forever looks like. It could be a generic shooter like Halo or Resistance: Fall of Man for all we know.
