E3 2010: Portal 2 Preview

Posted by Katie Punsly On July - 8 - 2010

Portal 2 Preview

Valve has finally decided to spill some secrets on their highly anticipated game sequel, Portal 2. As dedicated Portal fans remember, the last game ended with the destruction of GLaDOS and presumably of the labs at Aperture Science.

A lot of time has passed since the original Portal, and in this sequel, we see all of the testing chambers have been overgrown and fallen into disrepair over time. We find out that GLaDOS is back from the dead and is rebuilding her test chambers. Portal 2 developer Erik Johnson discussed some of the amazing feedback he received from the first game.

“Our fans said ‘We want more Portal, we want more Portal,’” Johnson repeated enthusiastically. “What we interpreted that as they wanted us to surprise them with the kind of game we’re building again. Which, for game developers, is kind of terrifying.”

I am Alive E3 trailer

Posted by Jens Erik Vaaler On June - 23 - 2010

Ubisoft’s E3 press conference this year was fairly uneventful apart from the announcement of a new Rayman game, and some further details on Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood. One of the titles I’ve been anticipating for a long time, I am Alive, was a complete no-show.

E3 2010: What was missing

Posted by Herman S. Lilleng On June - 20 - 2010

The E3 Expo is over for this year, and we learned a ton of new stuff. We know the name and games for Microsoft’s Kinect, we know what the new Zelda title is, we know what David Jaffe has been working on, and that there’s a new Rayman title in the works. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! However, there were some things gamers were expecting to see, but that never appeared. Here’s a rundown of things that were MIA.

E3 2010: Blacklight: Tango Down interview

Posted by Michael O'Connor On June - 17 - 2010

We were on the E3 floor this year checking out Ignition Entertainment and Zombie Studios’ Blacklight: Tango Down, and managed to spend some time talking to the game’s lead level designer, Michael Schorr, who was gracious enough to take a moment out of his time time to answer some of our questions.

E3 2010: Sony’s press conference impressions and opinions

Posted by Jens Erik Vaaler On June - 16 - 2010

We here at The Gaming Vault thought we’d give a quick run-down of our first impressions and opinions on Sony’s press conference. Sony had a rather long press conference this year, and was all about the 3D aspect of gaming. Yet Sony forgot to mention that you need a 3D TV in order to experience games in 3D, which goes against Sony’s boasts about being “best on 3D”, not to mention pushing several 3D games out the door.

E3 2010: Nintendo press conference impressions and opinions

Posted by Jens Erik Vaaler On June - 16 - 2010

We here at The Gaming Vault thought we’d give a quick run-down of our first impressions and opinions on Nintendo’s press conference. Unlike Microsoft, Nintendo jumped straight to the point and gave us a first look at the new Legend of Zelda title, which looked like a mix between Twilight Princess and Wind Waker. Shigeru Miyamoto struggled a bit with his live demo, but from what I’ve heard from the show floor, the game absolutely works.

E3 2010: Epic Mickey Hands-On

Posted by Zack Reese On June - 16 - 2010

I had a great time being able to try the upcoming Disney title Epic Monkey. I was able to speak with one of the game’s animators, and she gave me the run down of this very stylistic title that is just oozing with cool. Even the cutscenes are amazing and reminiscent of something you see during the credits of a Pixar movie. They have this storyboard look that the developers created, and the end result was simply stunning.

E3 2010: Yakuza 4 Hands-On

Posted by Zack Reese On June - 16 - 2010

Right off the bat, I was not expecting Yakuza 4 to be at E3 at all. Yakuza 3 only came out in March! Let me just say though that Yakuza 4 had to be one of the best demos of the day for me.

In the demo, each of the four playable characters (yes, four) got a chance to show their fisticuffs as they battled the scum of the streets in their own unique fighting styles. They may all be rough and heavy men, but each of your choices vary in their stats. You have the highly agile, the slow and powerful, the grappler, and, of course, my main man Kazuma, the all-arounder.

I can already tell that being able to play multiple characters will certainly add dozens of gameplay hours to the completionists everywhere. Using any of the assorted weapons on the ground with the game’s over-the-top special moves also left me smiling from ear to ear the entire time that controller was in my hands. It was a short demo, but that is all it took to really get me hooked!

Portal 2 coming to PS3

Posted by Jens Erik Vaaler On June - 15 - 2010

Portal 2 has officially been announced for the PlayStation 3. This announcement came courtesy of a very nervous looking Gabe Newell during Sony’s E3 press conference.

“PlayStation 3 is the most open platform of all the current generation consoles and has worked extremely hard to make the platform the most desirable for consumers and developers.

As such, we are delighted to announce Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 and believe the Steamworks support included will make it the best console version of the game,” Newell stated in a press release.

A quick launch trailer was also shown, which you can find below. It looks like the player and GLAdOS will be teaming up to fight whatever’s taken over the Aperture Science facility.
