Chapter 587
Cameron has never participated in the E3 Game Show and the Tokyo Game Show. He has only seen reports on these two game shows on the forum.
But today, watching the game exchange exhibition held by TGA, Cameron was a little surprised by the influx of so many players. He even heard cheers from time to time in the exhibition hall. He didn't know what was going on inside. What happened to make the atmosphere so warm.
Entering the exhibition hall, Cameron saw the logos and booths of game manufacturers. He has played countless games and is very familiar with these logos, but this is the first time he has seen the logos of these game companies in real life. figure.
Countless people gathered in front of the various booths, especially the booths of veteran game manufacturers such as Nintendo, Sony, and Ubisoft, which were very popular. The development in America for more than ten years has already been accepted by American people.
In front of Nintendo's booth, there were too many people gathered, and Cameron couldn't squeeze in. He could only hear voices. It seemed that he was promoting Nintendo's next-generation game console, the GBA. A concept version of the GBA handheld was on display. It is about the same size as the current mainstream mobile phones, uses a color screen, and supports the "Pokémon" game!
The game fans gathered at the scene were basically waiting for this sentence. When the person in charge of Nintendo said this, there was a burst of cheers.
Nintendo's current console is the N64, which can't beat Sony's PS2, but it's much better than Sega's. In the handheld industry, Nintendo is hard to beat. Each generation of Nintendo's handhelds can sell tens of millions of units. .
"Nintendo's next-generation game console will be NGC. Nintendo guarantees that this game console will be a completely new console design!"
Regarding this point, the reaction of the following game fans is not strong. In recent years, the host industry belongs to the era of Sony PS, and it is overwhelming the generation of hosts. Nintendo's hosts can earn US dollars, but it is difficult to overthrow the era of Sony PS hosts. Nintendo N64 focused on the improvement of the gamepad and made epoch-making changes, such as analog remote sensing, trigger buttons, vibration packs, etc., bringing the game experience into a new era.
These changes really surprised gamers, but they still couldn't sell the Sony PS console.
"Nintendo NGC console, will it support game discs?"
I don't know if it's someone from the game manufacturer or a player, and asked the Nintendo executive. This sentence attracted everyone's attention, and Cameron also pricked up his ears.
Yesterday, Song Yang told Arakawa that Hiroshi Yamauchi was getting old, but he didn't mean to mock Hitomi Yamauchi, but as the head of Nintendo, Hitoshi Yamauchi really couldn't keep up with the trend.
Just like the Nintendo N64 host, it doesn't support game discs now, and the old-fashioned cassettes are still used, and the current games are interspersed with animations and movie shots. Using cassettes, they can't be carried at all. Just like this, Nintendo will never regret it. , Let the old iron players use game cartridges.
Sony's ability to become the leader in the console industry is due to its strength and luck. Sega's internal strife, only the console hardware and no games in its eyes, was killed by Sony, and Nintendo is under the management headed by Hiroshi Yamauchi. It has fallen behind, and the consoles developed are hard to compare with Sony.
Sega and Nintendo have their own moths. As for other console brands, such as Nangong Meng and Atari, they can't shake Sony's position at all.
Hearing the questions on the scene, the director of Nintendo did not answer directly, but said with a smile, "Perhaps, everyone can have more expectations for Nintendo!"
Hearing that this is not the answer, there was finally cheers in front of Nintendo's booth.
After eating a melon, Cameron went to other game booths. What Cameron didn't expect was that there were many cospaly in the game, such as Japanese two-dimensional anime game characters, European Lolita, brother Cameron saw many familiar characters in the game at the scene, including Pikachu, Mario, Yagami in Boxing King, and many other game characters.
Some of the characters in these games are very similar, and some are so hot-eyed that Cameron can even guess that those similar characters may not be played by people invited by the organizer or the game manufacturer. It is the real ashes of the game who pretend to be.
In addition to the cospaly of these game characters, there were also many warm-up live performances. There were a few girls dressed up as characters in the game dancing on the spot. I saw a group of people surrounded by three floors and three floors under the booth. , Cameron secretly scolded this group of people, whether they came to watch the game or the girls, but they couldn't help looking at the booth, and had to say with emotion, TGA officials have a good eye for choosing girls...
Los Angeles has Hollywood, which attracts girls who want to be famous all over the world. It is not difficult for TGA to choose some girls to perform, not to mention that the salary is not low. It should be much higher.
In addition to dancing, there are violin performances, ballet and other performances. Xueleshan spent a lot of money. The stage design team invited people from Broadway, and the performers were from the Chicago Art Troupe. Bigger is definitely online. Well, at least Cameron, who doesn't know much about art, also feels that these performances are a bit lofty!
Cameron visited more than half of the exhibition area. In addition to the performances, he also saw many new games and new game equipment. There were also many famous game designers at the scene. If there were not too many people, Cameron would also like to go there Ask for a signature.
Until he came to the game exhibition area of Xuele Mountain, Cameron saw that the exhibition area of Xuele Mountain actually occupied one-fifth of the exhibition hall. This was not intentional by Xuele Mountain, but because there were too many game brands under it.
Cameron glanced around, and all the game brands he didn't know appeared in front of him, such as Blizzard, Valve, R Star, Id Games, Sammy, Sega, SNK, Nexon, NCsoft, Actoz, Xishanju and other games. Brand, the look of Cameron is dazzled.
A few of the booths were crowded with a lot of people, and there were bursts of voices from time to time. Before Cameron came, he had done his homework and went straight to the Rock Star booth.
Cameron has heard more than once on the IGN forum that some players who participated in the internal beta of "Grand Theft Auto" broke the news about how special this game is.
Cameron came to the Star Rockstar booth, and Cameron saw one player after another, waiting to try the game. Cursing and cheering sounded from time to time. Compared with other game booths in the exhibition hall, the atmosphere was much more enthusiastic.
Come forward, Cameron saw a player trying to play the game. When he saw the screen on the game, Cameron couldn't move his eyes. There was only one thought in his mind, can the game be played like this?
Completely free exploration, no rules and restrictions, even the gameplay itself, is to break the rules and follow the order, unscrupulously vent anger in the game, and there are even such things as cheating devices, Cameron never thought that it would be There's this "diablo" game out there.
Cameron just glanced left and right at the group of people on the Star R booth, and he could think that this game may have scratched the itch in many people's hearts. Few men could refuse this game, even if it was Cameron himself!
Reluctantly glanced at "Grand Theft Auto" and looked at the group of people staring at it. Cameron didn't know if it would be his turn to try it when the museum was closed, so he had to go to the V agency game booth next to him, but Cameron Lun knows that as long as "Grand Theft Auto" is released, he will definitely be the first to buy it, or even pre-order it. I can buy it!
The atmosphere on the V agency side is even hotter. There are also a group of people watching the "Half-Life" game in full swing, waiting to try it out.
The "Half-Life" on the booth only released one chapter, but the plot, game quality, AI, and the connection mode that happened to be several players at the moment have never appeared in shooting games before.
Looking at the "Half-Life" game in front of him, Cameron couldn't help but feel a little bit itchy. He wanted to show off his "skills". This kind of game of fighting skills, the viewers will inevitably have a feeling, It feels like the player is too good, I am better than him...
While Cameron was fascinated by watching, he saw Fatty G, who was not too fat, picked up the microphone, and said to the crowd present.
"What everyone sees now is the Half-Life expansion pack for Team Fortress. When Half-Life is released, the V game will open the source code. If you are interested, you can make Half-Life MOD yourself.
Of course, the MOD game developed based on "Half-Life" can only be placed on the Xueleshan online platform. If there are sales, the developer will work with V Agency to get the benefits of this MOD! "
Many of the people who came to the game exhibition today are **** fans of the game. They haven't seen any routines before, but today they still opened their eyes. The two generals of Xueleshan, Rockstar and V, are outrageous one by one.
One is a game developed, not to mention completely deviant, and there are cheat codes, the other looks normal, but the source code is released, and other game manufacturers are either desperate to guard against it, or they are afraid of being cracked. "Half-Life" is doing the opposite?
Cameron doesn't know how to develop MOD, but seeing many people around him, they are a little bit ready to move. What is the highest state of playing games? It's not to play according to the set designed by the game developer, but to create a set by yourself to prove yourself Know the game better than the original developer!
