E3 awards: Fallout 3 = Best of Show; LittleBigPlanet = Best Console game

OMG FALLOUT 4 CONFIRMED.

OMGZORZ

Fallout 1 = Wasteland

They're finally getting around to fixing the numbering scheme...

Haha, Joystiq, leave it as "Fallout 4." Please. That's hilarious.

CRAP! NDA totally broken now. That was a Joystiq WORLD EXCLUSIVE!

Console gamers acting as journalists, Chris Grant to be more specific, that don't understand nor care about great PC franchises = fucking up names like Fallout 4.

It's no wonder Bethesda is abandoning Fallout fans in favor of an FPS for the masses.

Wow, good call Shawn. You're a clever one. So, everywhere else in the post where there wasn't a typo ... those were the mistakes, but the typo in the headline, that was me showing my ignorance of PC gaming?

Because you obviously know if I've played the entire series or not? And you realize that I've played Fallout 3 (several times now) and was one of the judges in this year's Game Critics Awards? So smart!

(Also, you're banned for being a creep).

So that was the big announcement they had up their sleeves :O

Well what do they expect?

After that conference they should thank whatever god they worship that they were mentioned at all.

Yeah, I hear they sent Fernando that thank you the other day.

But guys.. Animal Crossing City Folk! and Wii Music! and that snowboarding game with Carrot Top! And Wii motion plus! And more Wii Sports with a CUTE PUPPY!!!! and--and--and.. the charts! The charts about how much money they are making! Those were awesome!

Sure, Animal Crossing looks like the DS version with better graphics and an extra few shops, and sure Wii Music makes you look like you're two screws away from a full toolbox, and sure now that they are making a ton of money(this point made over and over by the endless amount of charts) off of Grandpa and Grandma, they don't need us "geeks" for making money, and sure Cammie Dunaway talked down to us patronizingly like children, and sure you have no where to store any of the WiiWare games you want to buy, but does that really matter? I mean, for goodness sakes, Wii Sports Resort has a PUPPY. Guaranteed 50+ million copies sold!... of course, that's in other countries. You won't be able to find it if you live in America because we prefer to sell elsewhere to make more money.

If you are one of those aforementioned geeks or otakus, or both(gasp!), and are for some reason not happy with virtual puppies(you sick fuck), you should just keep buying Mario Kart, even if you already own it. Just buy it over and over. The joy alone of buying a new Nintendo game is so great, it often can replace the need for antidepressants.

Fine, you want more? Here's a bomb for ya:

Pikmin.

Yep, we're making it.

Release date: ~2012.

I knew you were going to say that..haha

what?

Resident Evil 5 looks so damn generic, they didn't even bother to change any animations from the previous Resident Evil!!

you're bringin' me down man!

Animations? They didn't even change the sound effects of the guns.

Dead Space = looks awesome.

Resident Evil 5 = looks like part 4 with new paint.

By only being available on a console, presumably. Fallout 3 is, of course, being released on PC as well.

Of course, this presumes that these designations actually make sense. I'm not entirely comfortable with that assumption.

why are the chickens blue in the future? what are you hiding!

they've spent all their money on the PS3. MS has to buy all the DLC for everyone now :(

Half Life 2 did get repetitive, but overall the atmosphere and setting they created in the campaign definitely makes it one of the best FPS games of all time (if not the best IMO). It really felt like I was on the run.

Episode 2 definitely had the most variety out of the HL games.

"Am I the only one not the least bit interested about Left 4 Dead"

Yes. Yes you are.

No, you're not. None of the videos I've seen look very appealing. I think most people are excited simply because it has Valve's name attached.

ok let's not get crazy here.

half life 2 beat the SHIT out of halo.

I'm not feeling anything for Left 4 Dead yet. Maybe in time, but right now there's too many other games I'm anticipating.

Oh, I see what you did there.

Hey Marty. In fairness he's only using 4Myfriends' catchphrase back at him (check his past posts). I think suggesting a company would BUY a reward is a bit more inflammatory - even if he *was* being sarcastic.
:)

Not everyone likes LPB. And that's cool. Voicing your opinion on a public forum is also cool but, flames are expected with such an incendiary comment.

You do have a point though: people do go a little overboard when "the other side" get any kudos. The way I see it both 360 and PS3 got accolade for a pretty lack-lustre E3 so it's no big deal. These "awards" are always subjective anyway. Your best in show may not be the same as mine. They pique the interest but only a moron would get all bent out of shape because someone else voted on a game you didn't like.

Just my 2c.

Great .. and now my comment will be lost in the ether cause the comment system went cuckoo again.

The above was in response to Marty telling Vid to chill out ... which is below ... or on another page ... or another article at this point ... who knows.

Time for sleep.
:)

To quote you from a couple of posts you have made recently:

Cry the fuck more.

Wow, simmer down Vid. It's a fucking video game.

*Repeating since butthurt joystiq users rated it down

How the fuck did LBP win best console game? How much did Sony have to pay to get this award...
