GDC 2009

Recommended Posts

Another thing I'm hoping for is information on The Conduit's online modes. Perhaps HVS will make a short presentation during the Nintendo Keynote.

I don't think 3rd parties talk for a bit in a Nintendo conference.

 

Meh I dunno. Don't folow GDC's.

They have in E3s in the past. And the article did say that some of the games that would be discussed would be 3rd party.

Yeah at E3s, those are different from GDC's though :heh:

 

They might show some 3rd party stuff like footage/trailers, but I very much doubt 3rd parties will go on stage, not a GDC thing I would of thought. GDC is more of a Nintendo only thing during their conferences tomshow what they can offer, E3 is a big presentation blow out and to promote everything on the Wii and generate hype. They're different from each other.

I doubt Iwata will be sharing the stage. Miyamoto did a keynote a couple of years ago, it's not like E3 and isn't really the place for big shared announcements.

Anyone listen to (or read the excerpts from) IGN's podcast?

 

Top secret third-party game

 

- Learn about it in April

- It’s totally badass

- Really good, high-quality

- It’ll surprise you how good it is

- You can hate Matt for giving a hint about a cool game

- Game is for the hardcore

When i heard this, i instantly thought of the rumours of a Silent Hill remake Climax are said to be working on.

Was GDC stuff really embargoed until E3 last year? Yikes

 

I thought it was GDC. Perhaps it was something else.

 

----------------------

 

^Kid Icarus would either be 1st or 2nd Party though

 

Sounds good, hopefully we can trust Matt this time.

It's Matt's job to say Kid Icarus :heh:

 

I can't help but notice that each year people seem to be expecting more and more from GDC.

Nah, I think that would be a bad move. I for one wouldn't be interested in that at all. Plus the folk who bought the GTA's on the PS2 will be content with GTA IV and not see a reason to go back to older games. I think most of those gamers would get it cause it's 'the latest game' and they can go around killing in GTA IV anyway(I think, haven't played it).

So why has no one posted the new Zelda screens?

 

edit: Supposedly.

*foams at the mouth*

 

Maybe Wii remakes of MGS 2 and 3?

 

Or perhaps the PS2 GTA games.

 

Why are people doing this to themselves?

Masochistic tendencies?

 

Although some of the speculations so far are a bit tongue in cheek, no?

The key note is at 9am San Fran time. They're 7 hours ahead i think, so expect news to filter through about 4 or 5pm.

IGN usually blog things, i'm sure 1up are too.

Indeed. From the GDC website:

 

In his keynote address, Nintendo global president Satoru Iwata will talk about Nintendo’s role in creating better tools and bringing opportunities for developers to introduce their innovative ideas to a marketplace that is increasingly willing and eager to embrace new game design possibilities.

It's strange, up until this very hour i thought Nintendo would announce a new game...but now..i'm not so sure..with Microsoft being very surpressed and not announcing anything other then this obvious Gears Of War 2 extra single player campaign thing i think Nintendo may choose to follow suit and wait for E3!

 

Though saying that i'm sure we'll get details on DSiWare and a storage solution! This is what i'm really wanting! The DSiWare store really is interesting me..BUT does it work with Mac computers?!
