By the time you read this I will already be on my way to the airport to catch my flight to Japan to cover the Tokyo Game Show with SCEA Blog’s Jeff Rubenstein.
We’ll be doing our best to make you feel as if you’re there along with us, by reporting on as many games as possible and interviewing as many developers as we can grab. We need you to help us out by giving us some questions for all these great people we’ll be chatting to. Below you’ll find the list of games whose developers we’ve already confirmed meetings with, though more may be added.
- PixelJunk Shooter
- PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe
- White Knight Chronicles
- Gran Turismo 5/ GT PSP
- Heavy Rain
- Valkyria Chronicles II
- Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker
- Quantum
- Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll
We want our interviews to be as interesting as possible, so make sure your questions stay away from the obvious (dates, Trophies, etc). Be sure to let us know if there are any games that aren’t on this list that you want to hear more about. We’ll make it our mission to keep you informed.
See you (virtually) from the show floor,
Jeff & Jem

Jem, first off, are all these games scheduled for EU releases? i don’t remember hearing about White Knight Chronicles getting a EU release (or a UK one for that matter).
if you could ask the VC team the following i would appreciate it.
Valkyria Chronicles had an emotionally charged storyline throughout the game but it really ramped up towards the end which made the game feel a little unbalanced with its story telling. What steps (if any) are you taking to make the player feel more emotionally invested throughout the game rather than at sporadic points?
Also, will their be new classes? and will all classes have class upgrades which alter their weaponry and appearance?

Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:21 pm by Ti_dus
I would also love to hear more about Jak (and Daxter) on PSP
16
Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:21 pm by makingdamage
Yeah, as much information as possible on the last guardian would be much appreciated.
And it would be great if you could ask GT5 (:P) how the damage modelling will work. On all cars? How much?

Bring on GT5…. Been waiting for ages now.
GT5 Question: Will there be a B-Spec(or something like it) this time also?
2: Will there be dammage on all cars? or just WRC/Nascar?
I dont care if it’s just visual dammage.
3. Will there we be able to make private rooms for racing?
4. Any chance i can come with you? (i would fit in a big suitcase..)
Stay away from the Sake….

If you could also ask both the White Knight team and the team behind Trinity what they are doing to make their RPG’s stand-out from the crowd id be interested
thanks Jem and have a great time

I would like to know more details about GT5 Head tracking technology. And: Are there more games coming to PS3 that support true 3D (With glasses) I know of only 2 games right now that support this, invincible tiger and G-Force. It would be cool if the 3D Option could be added to the PS3 OS so that it works in all titles like NVidia 3D Discovery on the PC!
25
Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:37 pm by Wookie501
Can we please have complete official clarification on GT5 car numbers, how many have damage models, how many have interior damage models. And the possibility of GT5 DLC , also how will the online work ? EG, will it have rankings, is there a COOP / Competative modes. Just how will GT5 be online ? Thats all, plus Uncharted 2 EU release date

Hiya, With VC2, Is there going to be any difficulty modes? Im still struggling through VC 1 but loving the look of VC2

Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:38 pm by V_Ben

Ask Sega if we will be seeing any Valkyria Chronicles characters returning for the sequel as cameos, or will any characters from other Sega games be in VC2! (like how Vyse, Aika and Fina turned up in the original)

Hi Jem & Jeff
While ur over there, could u see how many developers are incorporating game launching within home into their titles especially gt5, thanks.
32
Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:50 pm by designheadache
FROM Software’s new title 3D Heroes looks really good, PLEASE can you find out more about that?
The website for it is here: http://www.3d-heroes.net/main/
And convince somebody that they should release Demons Souls in the UK, i had to import it and currently its my GOTY, for such a masterpiece not to be released in the UK is a crime!
enjoy TGS

We need to know the release date of Heavy Rain!
34
Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 2:56 pm by SiRobertson
Could you ask the PixelJunk if they plan to add any extremely annoying voice-overs to the Shooter game. I purchased their little racing game a while ago and the voice-over in that game almost caused me to throw the PS3 out of the window.
Oh, we NEED a release date for GT5. If Polyphony mention “2010″ in their reply then please do us all a favour and beat them with a big stick until they say “2009″.
Thanks!

I heard that Gears of War 3 could be announced as being released on the PS3 in 2010. But like all Unreal/Generic Engine games, it will look decidedly shiiite on the PS3.
I’m also keen to find out more about The Last Guardian, and also about War Devil ( by digi-guys in Ealing ).
I hope that Sony announce more PS3 exclusives and give an actual release date for the new Motion Controllers ( holiday season? ).
Lastly, we need Sony to talk about how Home avatars can be used in third party games and how they will expand PSN to surpass Xbox Live functionality.

I cant wait to see Quantum and Trinity Zill’Oll

Please ask the wonderful people of Square-Enix if they will be releasing more titles on the PSN for the PS3 and/or the PSP.
Also, get us loads of info on Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep!
Maybe even some info on the PSP Go?

Are they going to release Gran Turismo 5 Demo on the Store?
I’ve also got a question about Final Fantasy XIII. Would Japanese VO have fitted on Blu-ray?
Thanks!

My questions will center around Valkyria Chronicles 2.
So here goes:
1) Why did you decide to have the sequel of Valkyria Chronicles on the PSP as opposed to the PS3?
2) Will any of the original cast be featured in the next game? If so will they be playable?
3) Will there be any new classes to select in the new game?
4) Any news on the official art book being released and any memorabilia heading this way?
Thanks!

Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 3:19 pm by GutsBerserker
- Weather, Day/Night change in GT5? If not would it be possible to hand out those features via update? Release date (common, you know this is more than overdue)?
- Tell them Metal Gear guys we’d like to see Zone of the Enders 3 on PS3
- Does the Sony Wand have an anolog stick or something comparable for walking around/moving the camera (yes please
)? Will single Wand be the standard (please say no)?
- Is Sony still caring about core gamers, as they said so repeatedly, with the Wands or will it be casual stuff for single Wand / no analog stick use?
46
Posted on 21 September, 2009 at 3:22 pm by Lucreto
When is Sony’s Press Conference and how long is it?
Any information on The Last Guardian.

Any information on Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll.
Thanks

It’s a tough job but someone’s got to do it hey Jem? What did you have to do to get a job that involves posting on blogs and traveling around the World going to games conferences?! I’m sure you’ll tell me it’s harder than it sounds, but I’ll not believe you!
Hopefully we’ll be seeing much more of the motion controller (and games that will be using it) at the show…
More info on The Last Guardian would be good too…
Regarding Quantum – why did they drop the ‘Theory’ part of the name, and would they consider the “Gears of War meets Devil May Cry” description a fair one and what sets it apart from these games.

I don’t what more spoilers from Heavy Rain, just release the game.
