You just ruined my favourite Pokemon. Are you happy?

While it did look very good, I doubt that was in-game. The animation was too fluid, and it looked like all the presenter was doing was controlling the camera.

You've got to remain skeptical after the pre-rendered Killzone 2 video from 2005.

3rd party support is good. But, what Nintendo -didn't- do was provide incentive for waiting (since most of the games listed are coming out later this year on the other platforms) and buying the Wii U version. Why buy Assassin's Creed for the Wii U when it would be cheaper to play it on the Xbox 360? Not to mention, I don't have to wait an extra year.

Only concern is that Bungie is no longer developing for the franchise. We will have to see how 343 Industries fares with the anniversary edition.

I think halo anniversary will be okay because they're not changing the story, and because the multiplayer. Halo 4 will be a hit or miss. Hopefully it will be good. I'll have to wait for halo anniversary because november tends to be a very busy school month

This was one of the few games I didn't even know about before hand that I'm actually really excited about. Gameplay looked insane with all those gadgets and stuff. Hopefully, Ubi also has new TC Rainbow Six/Splinter Cell in the pipeline aswell!

What did you think of using the kinect in-game to aim like they showed in the Microsoft conference? I'm not sure they showed that off in Ubisoft conference.

Does anyone else wish that they had not made BioShock 2 and simply called BioShock Infinite BioShock 2?
