E3 2010

Discuss anything related to this year's E3 convention in here.

Who else is praying Mr. Kazunori Yamauchi gives us a release date for the game that rhymes with Man Furismo Jive?

the official release date is 20/06/3010

I personally can't wait for Man Furismo Jive! Furious jiving is one of my favourite ativities. I think there's a Wii version coming out which FINALLY gives me a reason to use the Fit board

LOL, Turn 10 are @ E3....Forza Watersports or something to do with what ever they called Natel now? I wonder?

Watch the Microsoft Conference live here at 6pm BST:

"Forza Watersport" = developer "clever humour" speak for "Forza Wet Tracks/Weather Pack"

Just sounds like a codename to me, like they do in movies. Spider-man came into the cinema under the name "Daddy Long Legs" when I worked there. Some bizarre attempt to confuse potential thieves/pirates into not knicking the prints en route!

Well they said from the off they had been workign with water effects. I honestly don't think it's a small enough patch to put into a DLC though. Just think all all the changes they'd have to make!
More a sign of FM4 than anything else.

I was thinking more of an expansion pack. It's way too early for FM4.

Like the Ballad of Gay Tong for GTA4

If it's an expansion lack they're planning I wonder how much we will have to fork out for that.....

I don't think they'll do it as a "weather system", more likely it'd be specific tracks that you'd select from the list, e.g. "Silverstone Wet", where the conditions are set from the get-go, and the settings for the cars (lights and wipers) are switched "on", not controllable by the player, rather than a "dynamic weather" system which would require a major overhaul of the game.

Even so that's a sizeable update. We're talking a few hundred Mb easy I'd have thought.

hoping we get some sort of day/night progression

You won't get a day/night cycle in this game. Maybe a night circuit tho.

MS Conference is delayed til 6:30 (43 mins time)

This could be pretty crazy! Microsoft commissioned Cirque du Soleil to provide entertainment - something for the launch of Natal, or whatever it's going to be revealed to be actually called.
Cirque's staging etc is so extensive for it, that it took 25 semi-trucks to move it to the convention centre!

Can they just make Forza better (i.e better sounds and removal of the massive dead zone in the M$ wheel) before they start ''diluting it'' in a litereal sense

Live stream is just coming up now

Nicky, im pretty sure you can adjust the dead zone

Anyone else STILL waiting?

hahaha

cutting the watermelon

Still waiting, there into all xbox exclusives now so lets see what happens

Halo reach

ESPN on xbox. now i never need to leave my basement

You can adjust the dead zone between 0 and whatever degrees, but there is a massive non-adjustable dead zone at around 90-100 degrees that basically feels like there is a massive lump in the wheel and your car stops turning and drives straight and gives out lots of smoke!
