Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?



One of us! One of us! One of us!

Come and Take It - Temple Tsundere

E3 Has kicked off, and Microsoft has played their hand. Shown were the
following:

Microsoft

Fallout 3: The first gameplay demo appeared. Epic win was shown all
around in the form of a portable mini-nuke launcher.

Resident Evil 5: A demo was shown, revealing an Online Co-Op mode
and a new character, Sheva (Sound familiar?). The release date was
set for everywhere: March 13th, 2009.

Fable II: The opening of Fable II was shown, and the online Co-Op has
a bit of a twist to it: Your friends run around as purple orbs, and you
interact with them to bring them into your world.

Gears of War 2: A part of the co-op campaign was shown, along with a
new multiplayer mode called Horde, where five friends take on waves
of Locust.

Movies: I guess Microsoft is getting NBC and Universal Studios movies
now or something.

Avatars: I wasn't really paying attention, but I guess these are Microsoft's
Miis. They looked disturbingly like Miis, too.

Rare Games: They previewed the new Banjo-Kazooie and Viva Pinata.
I wasn't paying attention, but I guess they're also bringing the original
Banjo to Live.

Guitar Hero World Tour: The people at Neversoft revealed practically
nothing, but I guess Van Halen and The Eagles are exclusive to them,
GH players get a free REM pack, and Metallica's new Death Magnetic
album for DLC. They also said they'll have over 85 songs, claiming it's
the most. It gets overwritten soon.

Lips: I guess it's like SingStar or something, I don't know.

Rock Band 2: Harmonix kicked Neversoft in the face. They revealed the
whole game setlist. Highlights were Guns N Roses Chinese Democracy
preview, Bob Dylan, and AC/DC. They also said that most of the original
games disc tracks can be transferred over, and there are 20 free DLC
songs they're giving out on launch for a grand total of over 100 songs.

RPGs: Infinite Undiscovery and The Last Remnant were shown by Square Enix,
but they did have one huge gem left-

Final Fantasy XIII: You read that right. In addition to the PS3, FFXIII
will also appear on the Xbox 360.

Nintendo

Shaun White Snowboarding: The first game to use the Wii Balance Board
is this game, previewed by Shaun White himself. It is exclusive.

Market Domination: Iwata talks about how Nintendo's games are still
huge sellers even now, three years later.

Animal Crossing: City Folk: After twenty minutes, it's handed over to
the creator of ACWii! It even goes so far as to add a City part to the
game! But with it...

WiiSpeak: Comes WiiSpeak, a headset for letting people talk to each
other in different rooms across the world! ACWii will appear at the end
of the year with this.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Nintendo showed this lightsaber dueling
game that seems to take place during the prequels.

Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party: Nothing much here, but it uses the
Balance Board for some minigames.

Call of Duty: World at War: MORE WWII Shooters? Really?

Guitar Hero On Tour Decades: Not much here, just more GHDS.
Apparently, songs can be shared, but other than that, it sucks.

Spore DS: If you don't know Spore, show me the rock you live in. These
versions focus on the creatures.

That new Pokemon Ranger: Appearing on November 10th, no one cares.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars: Holy shit. It's GTA on the DS!

Strange DS Uses: People have been using DSes for air travel and ballparks.
Also, an English version for Cooking Navi.

WiiMotion Plus: Nothing we don't already know. It supports...

WiiSports Resort: Really? A sequel to this game? The activities included
Disc Dog (A frisbee game, think Nintendogs), Wave Racing (Hmm...),
and Sword Dueling (NOW we're getting somewhere!).

WiiMusic: That music game they showed a while back? That appeared
here. They made it seem like a big deal, but it wasn't.

Sony

Resistance 2: Sony kicked off with this gem, the sequel to their high
selling launch title. The monsters are huge now.

LittleBigPlanet: Nothing we don't know, but dammit this will be awesome.
Sony previewed their own custom level to show the game, and then
took it to the next level by using Sackboy to show their charts. Cool.

PS2 Games: Various PS2 Games were shown, though there wasn't
anything too mind-blowing.

Buzz: Quiz crap. Next, please.

Playstation Network: Some updates. Next.

Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest for Booty: Nice name. It seems to be
a downloadable sequel for Tools of Destruction.

Crash Commando: A PSN game. It's a side scroller.

Fat Princess: A PSN Game. This fat chick eat shit, I guess.

Other PSN games: Lots more PSN games were shown, like Pain and
this cool one one called Flower.

Siren: Blood Curse: A sequel to the horror game Siren.

Gran Turismo TV: I believe this lets you watch various racing shows,
but racing is boring anyway.

Trophies: Similar to Achievements. These will appear in BioShock, and
have a part in...

Home: The Ultimate Social Experiment, Trophies will appear in this as
your rewards. There are even parts of Home modeled after PS3 Games
like Warhawk, Uncharted, and Resistance where you can play the games
from Home.

Movies: See the 360, and then slap it on the PS3. Hopefully we'll get
Blu-Ray options. The content is even portable with your PSP, so it can
go on the road. The update comes out on July 15, 2008....Hey, that's
today!

Resistance: Retribution: Ooh, Resistance for the PSP! This just gets
better and better. This was a surprise for them.

PSP Games: Mostly games that we've either expected or can be played
on more systems. LocoRoco and Patapon stand out, though. So did
Valkyria Chronicles.

Life With Playstation: This will allow PS3 users to record things and put
them on YouTube's special PS3 Channel.

DC Universe Online: A PS3-Only MMORPG involving the DC Universe,
This is the first look we've ever seen of this game. This is gonna be
EPIC.

Price Drop: The 80GB PS3 will cost as much as the 40GB PS3.

Other games: I saw SOCOM, A Bond Game, the Ghostbusters game,
SCIV, The Agency, some Naruto crap, Mirror's Edge, RE5, Singstar,
GHIV, Killzone 2, and Fallout 3 in one last huge game overload.

God of War 3: They showed a trailer of it for next year. It's epic, but
doesn't show any gameplay or anything.

InFamous: A sandbox game where you're a superhero, this differs from
Crackdown in that you could be good or evil.

MAG: The final game showcased by Sony, this game can support
battles of up to 250 players...and no NPC's. It's like SOCOM on a more
epic scale. A trailer was even shown.

Have fun with this news!!

I love that FFXIII isn't PS3 exclusive.

And that the original Banjo is on Live.


That is all.

Fallout 3, Banjo Kazooie and Resident Evil 5....

Almost makes me want to get a Xbox360. ALMOST.

*Glances at Fallout 1 and 2 above head on shelf*

Almost......almost....

I wonder how fans will react to the avatars and Banjo Kazooie?

If BK has it's N64 look, I doubt very much they'll play it...

Banjo's 360 Only, but the other two aren't.

Just give into temptation, Nix. Join me on the other side.

The guy for Guitar Hero got like two claps at his part, and the whole
audience cheered for Rock Band 2. Trufax.

uh oh

Fallout 3, RE5, GoW2, BK, FF13, and quite possibly actually Square games without overused concepts.

I think I'll get a 360.

But I'll wait until Nint and Sony raises their curtains until I finally decide.

...Should I feel bad for wanting to cackle loudly and yell "BURN! BURN! BURN!" at the PS3? :unsure: Because right now I really want to do that.

The 360 is a good console, despite the RROD. I mean, I don't HAVE one, but it's games are definitely worth the system.
