Wow, what a show! AC/DC, obviously awesome, but the crowd was also just amazing! Nothing quite like having an entire stadium filled with people chanting like this, it was pretty fucking spectacular through and through. Here’s my pros and cons

Pros:
- Its AC/DC: You seriously can’t tell that these guys are in the 50’s and 60’s, they were completely unstoppable, and you can tell that they have experience in putting on a great show.
- The crowd: Usually I hate large groups of people, but yesterday different. The high marks were during Thunderstruck and T.N.T where the building was verging on falling apart from sheer awesomeness!
- Great setlist: Had pretty much everything you’d want from these guys, both new and old.

Cons:
- The Sound: From where we were, which was to the right of the stage, high up, the sound wasn’t perfect by no means. It was good enough, but I guess thats what you get when you’re sitting in the sides.
- Drunks: Idiots throwing beer around and constantly tried to walk up and down the seats, but considering that there were about 45.000 people there, then it was surprising how few were morons

So yeah, I don’t really have many concert references, so its easy for me to say that this is the best concert EVR!

Tomorrow, me and Warby (a.k.a The Zoinkster) are going to the AC/DC concert here in Copenhagen. Now I’ll be honest, I’ve never been to a concert before, but then again I’m not exactly the most outgoing kind of guy so its hardly a surprise. Anyway, I think this is going to be great, I totally love AC/DC, also their latest album which had plenty of awesome on it. But typically for Denmark, the weather might not be the best tomorrow, in fact its supposedly going to be something of a lightning storm, but thankfully there’s a roof they can pop out at the stadium where they’re playing, so hopefully it’ll be a fairly dry experience.

And speaking of lightning…

Few updates recently, but now I’m back because I had this song stuck in my head all of yesterday . Long live the D!

+ Bonus Song I had stuck in my head the other day, the Woodtick music from Monkey Island 2. Damn Mapcore thread about old game music you were nostalgic about had me listen to a shitload of game soundtracks that day

For me, Sony had already won after they showed Uncharted 2.

Best way to put it: Microsoft did have a better show, where as Sony had the best games.

Because I’m a lazy prick then I’m just gonna copy/paste what I wrote on Mapcore

Its strange, they showed a lot of really cool stuff, but somehow none of it really made it a homerun for me. The Natal stuff was really cool, its for the Wii crowd and not for me, but cool enough. I LOVED the bit where he was showing off the Avatar with Natal, and wanted too show the underside of his shoes, and the Avatar just spasm’ed all over the place, comedy gold!

The Kojima bit was kinda unexpected, although it would’ve been so much more impactful had it been last E3 . I bet the Raiden game is for the 360, and the PS3 will get a new Big Boss MGS (They gotta stay friendly with their sugar daddy Sony ). Even though he was finally kinda cool in MGS4, then I doubt having a full on game about him will bear fruit :G

The beginning and end of the MW2 presentation were fucking epic! The middle, incredibly meh. And speaking of Epic, that entire presentation of their XBLA just had epic FAIL written all over it. I feel for them though, having both your microphone be fucked up AND have the collision betray you like that? Dayyymnee son!

Forza 3 is probably gonna be ace. Couldn’t tell that it was much better looking from the stream quality, but if its got better physics and more cars then its good. Played Forza 2 more than what was healthy for me

Apart from that, Crackdown 2? Cool. Alan Wake? Meh. I’ll play it, but seriously that game just needs to come out so they can start doing something new. Gameplay doesn’t really look all that interesting from what I’ve seen, but who knows. And although Splinter Cell looked really cool (Much more Hitman’ish open level stuff?), then I’m just way too burned out on the franchise, baditude and stylish level objectives aren’t gonna change that. And ODST? WTF? I figured it was gonna be like an add-on kinda thing for Halo 3, but it really didn’t look like they bothered to put in any polish on what they showed off there. I certainly hope Bungie are spending their energy on something else. Left 4 Dead 2 is kinda early, but alright

I also loved the bits where they were showing the home like “watch a movie with your friends….online” and you could just hear a fucking pin drop while there was no applause, what the hell did they expect? And the Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr appearance bit in the beginning was just sooo embarrassing, them just standing there not knowing what to say.

Anyway, fell kinda flat overall for me even with all these pretty big time things revealed. I kinda hope Sony will outdo them, but I kinda doubt it also.

I love The Onion

Internet peoples are saying that its an internal Sony video thats actually about a year old.

I don’t really care, I think it looks absolutely stunning.

Saw this the other day and was really tempted to get one of these t-shirts, but I really don’t think that colour will look good on my pale nerdy exterior. It’s really funny though, and its been a while since I bought some games related t-shirt, hmmm.

And if you don’t know what this is about, check King of Kong, or this Youtube video

I gotta admit that Little Big Planet never really did that much for me. I mean if I had been 10 years younger I would be all over that thing, but to Mazy the Gamer/GameDev its just too much of a chore to play around with. The campaign was pretty sweet though.

Anyway, check out this guy who made Another World (Aka Out of This World) in LBP. Amazing how many of the set pieces and memorable moments thats in this level.
