Just came back:

 

Quick impressions:

 

Resistance 2: Looked amazing. The amount of stuff oncreen and scale blew everything else away. Alot of variety in the pacing and action.

 

Killzone 2: Most popular game at the show. Looked way beyond anything at the expo. Played even better as many found :) My beta skills came in handy but i crashed the very long demo near the end... had plenty of glitches but not worried since the game mechanics are amazing.

 

Mirror's Edge: Sony were pushing this hard. Short yet fantastic demo. The game is fairly simple but its intense and very fun. Graphics are some of the best this gen. Great artstyle goes a long long way.

 

LBP: Was popular(but nowhere near Killzone 2) then again alot of people there were the usual hardcore gaming types. Wii and DS were not popular either. It certainly had groups of people interested.

 

RE5: Lovely , didnt play much but what i did play convinced me to not spoil anything. I hope they change some of the stuff abit like sounds and gold because they seem like they were lifted directly out of Re4 but its minor.

 

Street Fighter 4: Its great but i am horrible at arcade sticks.

 

Tomb Raider: Seemed ok but i cant see myself caring about this. After Uncharted the bar has been raised and Tomb Raider feels like it has been left behind.

 

Prince Of Persia: Lovely game. I liked the presentation. Controls were good and interesting from what i played. The princess is not as cheap as you would think. Another one where the demo convinced me.

 

Left for Dead: Felt like a budget game. Its clearly running on the HL2 engine without upgrades. I was not impressed.

 

Street Fighter 2 Turbo Hd extra alpha duper strike remix of remix: Seemed good. Same old game with new graphics. I wish it was 1080p but i guess Capcom want to rerelease it again and again.

 

GTI Club: Controller was broken. Couldnt steer. Looked ok for a PSN game.

 

MotorStorm 2: Looked much better than the demo. Was easier and more fun but choosing the right vehicle plays a huge part. Quite excited for it. Splitscreen worked really well, more detail than the current demo...

 

Indie games were hidden away on the top floor.

 

Sony were using the Sixaxis and not the Dual Shock 3. Had trouble adjusting to the analogue sticks. I changed alot of 1st person games to inverted controls. MS were not using their new controller and as a result this ruined certain games like Street Fighter 2.

 

Any more just ask?

You play Gears 2, Banjo?

 

I played Banjo. To be honest i did not play enough to make a real judgement. Some may hate the vehicle bits but it has promise. I couldnt really do much in the demo. MS also only gave 2 pods for Banjo and like 6 to a basketball game no one cared about...

 

Gears 2 I will try out tommorow. I did not have time for many games so i decided to just focus on some today, the rest tommorow.

 

Were there any weapons in Resistance that haven't appeared in the beta?

 

Yeah rocket launcher was there. early parts of the game were shown. It was clearly not the full game though. Special show version.

 

Going to check out afew more games tommorow. Might even go to the covent garden LBP event to see what its like and maybe do some minor shopping.

 

anyone want to meet up perhaps?
