sooooo tired ... *yawn* ok so thought I would do a head start and try to get these posts done today. Hope all of you been enjoying E3 and the lovely new announcements, I've been overwhelmed with all the new information.
So this first post will be the Sony Conference announcement and what I want from it/liked about it, and this time the video as loaded hooray! So let's get stuck in! oh that reminds me, there is a comment box so if you want to voice your opinion or talk about what you liked please do! love to hear your thoughts.

So big thing for Sony this year is the new handheld which looks stunning! still trying to like the name they given it "PlayStation Vita" though. In fact GAME have posted up the UK price yesterday at £229.99 for the wi-fi only and £279.99 for the 3G and Wi-fi, so my £10 deposit is down in store ready for it.
Watching them play Uncharted Golden Abyss really showed off what it can do, I love how you can do the simple normal controls as if you were playing a dualshock pad but at any time use the touchscreens. Simple click an enemy to do a take down, or reload by pressing the weapon icon. Actually one of my favourite parts was when they dragged their finger along the route they wanted to climb and the character followed it, that was pretty sweet. Shame they didn't show off the back touchscreen features much but guessing we will see more about that soon.
So yeah I'm sold it, but who isn't ? its a PlayStation 3 in your hands with full support! trophies too!

One thing I did like was the announcement to the introduction to 3D, a PlayStation 3D TV that will be coming out at $400 with a copy of Resistance 3 and their new cheap glasses too. Shame the TV is 24" but love the idea of the price since it's a nice way to get into 3D on a budget. Oh one more thing they did say was it can do co-op and it won't look like a split screen. Both players will see a full screen to them, now I would like to see that.

Games wise I was slightly annoyed, not in a really bad way more of a "ah dang it not another release for that month". They announced they going to do a God of War Origins HD Collection which is basically the two PSP games put on disc and brought over to the PS3 remastered with trophies (you know I love trophies) but its coming out in September.....great just had that to the rest of the pile coming out.
Of course it did not end their, they then dated the ICO collection as September too....at this point I was banging my head against the wall shouting why why why. No doubt the Last Guardian probably going to be September too. Think I might need a mortgage to cover the cost of all these games lol

Bioshock Infinite looked pretty sweet, no scratch that AMAZING looking! and they said after trying out a PlayStation Move they will be bringing support to it. Another reason to get a move, yes I did buy a move the other day but took it back. Before I opened it I did look into PlayStation Move Heroes and it did not look like what I expected so will get the controller later on. Anyway at the end of Bioshock they did say they doing a project in the Bioshock Universe for the PS Vita...sweet! cannot wait

Other games shown...let's see well a nice intro trailer for Starhawk but to be honest I was sold with the game play trailer, would like to see few more in depth game play trailers before I do buy. Resistance 3 demo looked amazing! but again I was already sold since I'm really enjoying the second one right now and want to see the outcome.
Bit torn though about Resistance 3, see I am tempted about that huge survivor edition but I wonder what the price will be and will it be worth it for the bag and few toys. Special edition will include the dlc which is just a few extra multi player skins etc with all the stuff coming out in September need to really be careful on what I spend. Then at the same time they showed off a huge move bundle for Resistance, get the sharpshooter (in the better socom grey colour), move controller, navigation controller and a copy of the standard game. Nice way to get into the Move area...so again I'm really not sure what I will do...guess wait to see announcements on what the UK is doing and prices

Uncharted 3 demo was pretty sweet but like I've said a few hundred times I need to play the first before I go and pre-order this, but to be honest from seeing all the videos and demos I can say I'm probably going to love it.
Actually there was a game that I was not sure what to think about and that is Dust 514, based in the EVE universe and a first person sci-fi shooter...really don't know what to think. Will it be a pay monthly since its being linked to EVE online??? game play looked alright but going to hold judgement to I see a lot more about it.
Also inFamous 2 looked good but never played the first one properly although I did get a free copy now thanks to the welcome back pack, will have to sit down and try it. See what my mate Adwil24 says about the second one
