Questions for Companies at E3

[digitalpress]

DP has a huge team going this year. Let's put our resources at your disposal!

What do you want to ask the companies exhibiting at E3 this year?

The team here can compile your questions with ours, then divvy 'em up and attack! It's good for us to have questions too - sometimes only interested parties with good questions get the goodies that are "behind the kiosks".

Post the company name and the question here, I'll compile them into a single list.

[ubersaurus]

Ask the Overloaded guys if Xyanide for Xbox has any actual release date yet.

Ask SNK's people when Battle Colosseum is coming out, and if there's any plans for a home port yet. While you're at it, I'd like to know if they have any excuse for Sam Sho Special not coming to any home systems.

Finally, ask Bungie what it'll take to get Durga into Halo 3 :P I hear the actress who played her is supposed to be going, but why not push the issue?

[Dahne]

I'd like to know if anything in the development process at Squeenix has really changed since the companies merged. You know, whether they do a lot of collaboration now or if it's sort of still two separate entities, just under the same title.

[Crush Crawfish]

Things I'd love to know:

Does konami have any plans to release Ganbare Goemon DS in the US?

What games are in Capcom's Mega Man X collection and Capcom Classics Collection, and If they are indeed coming to the US.

If these questions could be answered, I'd be eternally grateful!!! :D

[alexkidd2000]

Can someone please ask Kush (Take Two) why there games have so so so many bugs? Ask if they actually have bug testers please.

[portnoyd]

Before I leave, I'll compile this list, and print it to take with us. Between the list, and Achi reminding me I have the list, I should be able to answer every question, as long as I find the company.

[portnoyd]

From link with numbers:

so I was wondering if someone could go to Conspiracy Games' booth (If they even have one) and ask then if they're still translating Phanatsy Star Trilogy. I know a few people who share my concerns on several MB's, so your efforts will be appreaciated even outside DP.

From Aussie2B:

Someone should also see if Natsume is still going to release Chulip in the US.

From Cryomancer:

I agree on the Phantasy Star request, and my girlfriend would be sure to suggest asking about Harvest Moon for Girls while you're at the Natsume booth.

[DR. Luigi M.D.]

Rockstar had some good sales and rentals for Red Dead Revolver, ask them if they have any more western style games planned after those kinds of numbers.

:( It's a pity Red Dead Revolver sucked so bad, but I think that style of game would have a strong following if it had a more open-ended format such as GTA OR didn't include a vanishing clown :angry: .

[Gamemaster_ca_2003]

To Rockstar- will there be GTA 3 or Vice City on the GameCube

To Nintendo- will there be any more NES Classics. Also will you do anything else for the 20th Aniversary of the NES

To Crave- Will there be more Pinball Hall of fame packs.

[Stark]

I'd like to know if a special online edition of Gran Turismo 4 is coming out or is Poly Digital holding off for the PS3 to issue another Gran Turismo?

[tholly]

To All Companies:

As for all those sweet freebie goodies that you see people selling on eBay after E3.....

After that:

....Get a box, package them, and send it out to me...I'll pay shipping (and, if you bring it back to New Jersey before shipping, the cost to ship to PA will be really cheap) :)


But, other than that, try and get any info you can about the Next Xbox from the guys at Microsoft's Stand

[Lord007]

Please ask Sega why they won't rerelease Rez.
Also ask Sega if their MMORPG Shenmue game will ever make it to the US.

Ask EA if they'd ever think of making an updated Rampart (I'm not even sure if they'd be the company to ask)

And I guess this last question could be asked to any company: What next-gen console are you most excited to develop for?

[Crush Crawfish]

I just thought of two more:

Ask Konami If they have any plans to make a Suikoden 5.

Ask Midway if they plan to publish Shadow Hearts: From the New World in the US. If not, try to see if anyone else will be picking it up.

And here's yet another three:

Ask Koei if they will ever make a sequel to Gitaroo-man. Tell them there's a first-born male child in it for them if they do. LOL

Ask Square-enix if they have any plans to continue the Chrono series.

Ask nintendo if they're ever going to bring Mother 1+2 to the USA, and if Mother 3 will be released in the USA too, If it ever actually comes out.

Thanks! :D

[Slipdeath]

Is there an age limit? And don't you have to be in the entertainment business?

[Big Papa Husker]

Ask Square-Enix if they are bringing FF3 to the US.

[Dahne]

In regards to Suikoden, please bludgeon Konami with something blunt until they make it 2D again.

Okay, maybe not that one. But do ask about MGS4. :D (Though they'll probably be making an announcement anyway)

[XxMe2NiKxX]

Is there an age limit? And don't you have to be in the entertainment business?
I'd presume that they'd be going as press.

I'd like to know what Majesco is doing to preserve the Age of Empires 2 name during the transition to Nintendo DS.

[InsaneDavid]

Sega - First and foremost if there is a Daytona USA 3 in the works. When I was still heavily involved in the industry I remember seeing XBox TBA release dates for the first three years of the console life span and at the bottom of every list was Daytona 3 by Sega. We were eternally thankful for the lovingly crafted rework and celebration of this modern classic that the Dreamcast release of Daytona USA in 2001 was.

Square Enix - Are they going to do anything with Illusion of Gaia? This was an Enix release on the SNES and was the second in a series of three unrelated games built on the same basic gameplay engine: SoulBlazer, Illusion of Gaia, and Terranigma (never released in the US). Illusion of Gaia is my all time favorite game and it would be awesome to see a GBA port as it was terribly underrated. Then again, that's what happens when Nintendo hypes a game as the "next" Legend of Zelda...

Namco - What's in store next for the Ridge Racer franchise? After Ridge Racer 6 became the horrible and broken R: Racing Evolution it seemed all was lost until Ridge Racer / Ridge Racers on the PSP. Are they planning anything special later down the line? A Sony console launch (hint - PS3) just isn't complete without a new Ridge Racer game.

Conspiracy Games / Sega - Any more of the SegaAges2500 series remakes by 3DAges slated for the US market? Make sure to let them know how much we love Sega Classics Collection and the amount of anticipation we have for the Phantasy Star Collection!

Lastly anything about where the Lunar series is going from anyone that could tell you would be nice. :)

Thanks for giving the community this chance, I haven't been to E3 since 1999.

[classicb]

Ubisoft- Are there plans to ever make the sequals to Beyon Good and Evil? If not please do.

Tecmo- When will the next Fatal Frame come out?
Will Tecmo Hit Parade come out in the US?

Nokia- When will you make a top down shooter for the N-Gage? Why else did you make it with a vertical screen?

[I Am Humanoid]

Ask any of them:

*Is Brooklyn in the house?*

and try to keep a serious face.

If they get confused,

just move on to the next question.

[digitalpress]

Is there an age limit? And don't you have to be in the entertainment business?

We've been going as media since 1991.

We also exhibited at E3 last year, if you recall "The History of Videogames" display was our team:

[Iron Draggon]

Microsoft - When are Rallisport Challenge 2 & Crimson Skies 2 coming out for the PC, and if they have no plans to port these over to the PC, why not? Rallisport Challenge is still the best rally racing game ever released for the PC in the US, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the sequel on the PC! And as for Crimson Skies 2, why was it released on XBOX before the PC, when the original game was a PC game? It should've come out for the PC first, or at least at the same time as XBOX! So ask them if they're just gonna keep neglecting us PC gamers like this, and tell them that most PC gamers are never gonna buy an XBOX, because we see it as just a cheap underpowered PC! That's all it is! See what they say. Oh yeah, and ask them why the hell they chose to cancel Microsoft Train Simulator 2 for the PC! No interest in it my ass! Every single owner of MSTS in the world was looking forward to that game! They need to release it!

Ubisoft - Will you PLEASE port Monster 4X4: Masters of Metal to the PC? Yes, we know that the previous game, Monster Jam, sold horribly on the PC, but that was because it SUCKED! This game is much better, and monster truck fans haven't even been given a sucky new monster truck game to play on the PC ever since Monster Jam! We need this game released on the PC! There hasn't been a decent one on the PC since Monster Truck Madness!

Iridon - If Monster Truck Fury has indeed been released for the PC, as your website claims it has, then where the hell was it released? We want this game released here in the USA, we were expecting it to be published by ValuSoft, who published the previous game, Monster Truck Rumble, and we're getting really tired of searching for needles in haystacks every time you claim that you've released a new game for the PC! No stores that sell PC games ever know anything about your alleged releases for the PC, DAMMIT!

Atari - Will Test Drive: Eve of Destruction ever be released for the PC, and if not, why not? Every other Test Drive game in the series has always been released on the PC, and usually before any other platforms, or at least about the same time! Don't neglect your loyal PC gaming fanbase the same way that Microsoft has! We're not gonna buy a PS2 either, so please stop it with all the console only games already and release these games for the PC too! Also, please stop rushing games that are obviously not ready for release, just so you can meet a holiday deadline! Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 was a disaster, thanks to you rushing it, and we're very tired of your collossal screwups! Stop trying to be like EA, and for God's sake, allow public beta testing for your high profile titles like RCT3! All that game needed was some testers to find all the bugs in it before it was released with a ton of bugs in it! SHEESH!

Encore - Will you PLEASE port GrooveRider: Slot Car Thunder to the PC? We thought that it was gonna be released for the PC too! If not, then why not? This game is begging to be released on the PC, so where the heck is it? You know that it'll most likely sell much better on the PC than on the GC, right?

Empire - THANK YOU for porting FlatOut to the PC for us PC gamers! We can hardly wait! Is it still on schedule for a summer release in June? Great! Now could you please teach all the other developers how to port a PS2 or XBOX game over to the PC, so they'll all get off their lazy butts and stop neglecting the PC gaming segment of the market? We PC gamers want more than just dozens of FPS, RTS, & MMORPG! You obviously know this, so why the hell can't everyone else figure it out too? What is their problem? By the way, will there ever be a sequel to Total Immersion Racing for the PC? We really appreciate you porting that one over to the PC for us too! And speaking of ports, when is Starsky & Hutch 2 coming out? You're gonna port that one over to the PC too, aren't you? Kudos to you for being one of the very few developers in the industry willing to port PS2 & XBOX games to the PC! As far as we can tell, you're the only developer/publisher still doing this on a regular basis, and we hope you never abandon us like everyone else did!

SimBin - When is GTR gonna be released in the USA? Is it still on schedule for a summer release in June? We really can't wait for this one! But why was it released in Europe first? We thought that it was gonna be simultaneously released worldwide! Just don't let all of us US GT racing fans down, please!

That's about all that I can think of for now, except please let all the gaming companies know that there are LEGIONS of PC gamers who DON'T GIVE A DAMN about FPS, RTS, & MMORPG, and we're STARVED for their products! Bonk them all on the head really hard, and make them all write "We WILL port our best games to the PC" 1000 times! Take a doghouse with you and put them in it too! (Except for Empire, they can stay out of the doghouse!)

Seriously, anything that you can do to convince the industry that alot of us PC gamers are SICK AND TIRED of nothing but FPS, RTS, & MMORPG being released for our platform, while every other genre is being neglected and only released on the consoles with very few exceptions would be greatly appreciated! Tell them that we're NOT gonna buy any of the consoles just so we can play a few exclusive games that COULD and SHOULD be done much better on the PC, and that applies to CURRENT and FUTURE consoles! Alot of us are simply NOT gonna invest in any consoles just for playing games when we have perfectly good $3000 PC's that can run rings around them all! So why the heck are they all NEGLECTING us and our $3000 gaming rigs?

Oh yeah, and please keep an eye out for any new PC games that AREN'T an FPS, RTS, or MMORPG for us! Also, get all the information that you can on expansion packs for RCT3! Especially the new waterpark expansion that's due for release in June! But tell Atari DON'T RUSH IT, NO MATTER WHAT! Squirt them with waterguns, until they're soaking wet, and tell them that's their punishment for rushing RCT3 and screwing it up royal in the process!

[Mr.FoodMonster]

Konami, ask them if they are going to make another PS2 DDR game. It would have to be an original game, and as long as it isnt made by Konami of Hawaaii, thats cool. Are there any plans to release a US version of Guitar Freaks/Drum Mania, Beatmania, or any of the other music games? They are really starting to take off with things like Taiko, Donkey Konga, and it would be nice to see some of what these all got inspiration from make a real US release.

Namco, ask them if they are going to release any more Taiko games, because I would hate for them to only have one game use that drum. Also, if they are going to release any more lightgun games, because they seem to be the only company still in that market, and I love em for that.

[VACRMH]

Sorry, got some weird message :(

[VACRMH]

I have another question for Capcom about the Capcom Arcade Collection.

I'm sure Fox has some rights to the Aliens VS Predator CPS2 game, but does Capcom have the power, or any interest to bring it out?

I'm sure i'll be weeping after I find out, but I need to know :(

[MegaDrive20XX]

SNK- Will you release Last Blade 1&2 to the US? When is Samurai Shodown 5 and Special coming to the USA? Will there be a state side release of the KOF95-99 Collection? How's the Metal Slug 1 port on GBA coming along?

Capcom- Will you release the Darkstalkers Collection to the USA PS2? after RE4 on PS2, what could be your next plan? Is Onimusha ever coming back? Will there ever be a return to the Ghouls 'N Ghosts series besides Maximo?

Konami- Will there ever be a true US release of Dracula X: Rondo of Blood? Any plans on a CastleVania Collection? Any sneak peak at the next Silent Hill?
Any plans for a PSP or DS version of Contra?

Sega- Will VF4 FT have a stateside release on PS2? The recently released "Vitura Fighter 2 Sega Ages 250", will this see a state side release? What other future plans besides Phantasty Star Universe do you have planned up? PSP Sonic? DS Sonic? How are these two doing?

Square Enix- Any offical word on Final Fantasy 3 (Famicom) port on the DS? Any plans on remaking Seiken Densetsu 2 and 3? Will Dragon Warrior 5 and 6 ever see a US release? Even a port of the remake of DW4?

[MegaDrive20XX]

Sorry, got some weird message :(

Yeah same here, about some mail message? I had a long paragraph too sadly...

[MegaDrive20XX]

[MegaDrive20XX]

Majesco- will there be anymore GBA Video stuff.

LucasArts- What is next for the Ballblazer Franchise.

VU Games- Will there be a Half-Life 3

Jakks Pacific- Will your next classic gaming Tv Games thing have the actual Hardware.

[le geek]

Hey Nintendo where are all the DS games?

Cheers,
Ben

[TheRedEye]

To Rockstar- will there be GTA 3 or Vice City on the GameCube

Seeing as how the Gamecube's media is only about 1/3 the size of a GTA game, I don't see how this is possible.

[JJNova]

In regards to Suikoden, please bludgeon Konami with something blunt until they make it 2D again.

Okay, maybe not that one. But do ask about MGS4. :D (Though they'll probably be making an announcement anyway)

They didn't, but Hideo Kojima did. The subtitle was "Hide No More" or something along those lines, and Hideo joked calling "Hideop No More" because he's not working on it.

I googled Digitpress.com the other day, and found that DigitPress was a large provider of imaged for E3girls.com ... and apparently the Tecmo girls were the favorite.

So ask them to lift their bikini tops....please....

To Nintendo: Is the revolution going to have wired ethernet or only wi-fi?

To Sony: How the fuck could you not settle with Imersion before the judgement?

Konami - Ask them about the rights to Policenauts and if they would allow a third party to pulbish a Saturn version in English in the near future...and how to get ahold of the right people to talk to...phone numbers, etc. And will you be doing the next Ys game as well?

Atlus - Thank them for really catering to the fans with all their great feedback and site, and ask them what they've got on the burner, and why the heck it's so hard to find Choro Q. Also bug them for freebies and ask them why you can't buy more T-shirts and posters from their online store.

Interplay - Ask why they haven't made a new friggin' Rock N' Roll Racing game!

Sega - Ask them when they're gonna make and etc:

A sequel to Panzer Dragoon Orta
A sequel to Nights into Dreams
A bloody REAL Shining game
A straight offline heavy story Phantasy Star game (I know...Universe...*sigh*
What caliber of ammo Shadow uses (bet they're Black Talons!)
If Virtua Cop 3 is coming to a console!!!!!!!

Capcom - Where are my updates for D&D (CPS2), Warriors of Fate, Aliens Vs. Predator, and all the other great beat em ups that should be 3D! Make more 3D beat em ups!

Hasbro Interactive/Infogrames/Microprose - IS the X-Com license dead forever or will there someday be another GOOD strategy X-Com? And if you're not going to use it, will the rights be available for sale?

Irrational Games/Lookingglass Studios - More Thief and System Shock!

Aruze - Keep up the kick ass games!

That's all I can think of...

Having trouble posting my questions... :(

[swlovinist]

SNK/Playmore- Any plans on making a classic collection of thier early games, and/or remakes?

Microsoft- What serious plans is the company making to listen gamers who are not being paid by them?

Nintendo- Ask them if anyone there knows that people that are older than 13 want to purchase their first party products(other than the new Zelda). Ask them if they like what happend to Sega and what they are doing as a company to not follow in thier footsteps.

[maxlords]

Edit...good gods...I'm so embarrased. :embarrassed:

[Lemmy Kilmister]

Please ask Konami about any sort of info on far east of eden, AKA tengai makyou being released here in the states. It was once rumored to be getting a release and even EB was taking pre-orders for it on their website. Though now it has simply disappeared without a trace.

Sega - Is NiGHTS 2 in the works yet? Or how about a traditional Phantasy Star game?

Capcom and SNK - Ask them to stop making 2D fighters, for the love of all that is holy.

[Snapple]

Please ignore, sorry.

Nintendo - Are they going to be releasing any NES compilations much like how Capcom and Midway are doing? And also, I would like to know if they are going to be doing this, are they going to put it on the Gamecube instead of being on Gameboy?

Spike (hopefully they will be there)- I would like to know if they are going to be releasing any new wrestling games.

Agetec - Are they going to be bringing over another RPG Maker to the U.S?

THQ - Are there any plans on making a Legends of Wrestling game? Seeing as how Acclaim is gone and THQ is still putting legendary wrestlers in their WWE games, I was wondering if they could possibly make an entire game series that is based off of the Legends of Wrestling.

Lucas Arts - Will there be another Indiana Jones game for the PS2 or maybe even Gamecube? I loved Emperor's Tomb, but I want more. :)

That is all I can think of at the moment. Thanks for taking our questions :)

[VACRMH]

Just so whoever is going knows, I don't think Working Designs is renting a booth this year.

On the WD message board they said they would be there walking around and chatting, but no booth.

[packratshow]

SCEA - Any news on releasing Ape Escape 3 for the PS2 in America? Will it matter on how the 2 PSP Ape Escape games do?

[ubersaurus]

Oh I have another one, that I know my friend will be interested in knowing...

Tecmo: What are the plans regarding Fatal Frame 3?

Sega: Are there any plans for a Shenmue 3, Space Channel 5 pt 3, Zillion 3(total longshot, I know) or Streets of Rage 4?

[Rikimaru]

@Sega - Just add one more person who would like to see Rez re-released!

@Gamestop/Capcom? Any way to know if Gamestop will produce a limited edition Resident Evil 4 casing/stuff for the PS2 like it did for the cube?

@Working Designs...Somehow, invite Treasure to a party...get them real hammered...and produce a Radiant Silvergun US port for the PS2.

Ugh.... (edit)

Konami

Namco

[Richter]

Capcom and SNK - Ask them to stop making 2D fighters, for the love of all that is holy.Capcom already has. Good luck getting a new SF game, Capcom USA owns them rights now

Namco -
a new Splatterhouse..........i want :)

[Mr.FoodMonster]

New ZOE and Splatterhouse would make me ultra happy.
Konami:
How about a PSP ZOE?

"SimBin - When is GTR gonna be released in the USA? Is it still on schedule for a summer release in June? We really can't wait for this one! But why was it released in Europe first? We thought that it was gonna be simultaneously released worldwide! Just don't let all of us US GT racing fans down, please!"

Very doubtful I'm afraid. I can't legally say anything more. Import the UK version, that's what everyone including myself is doing. :)

"so I was wondering if someone could go to Conspiracy Games' booth (If they even have one) and ask then if they're still translating Phanatsy Star Trilogy.

Conspiracy Games / Sega - Any more of the SegaAges2500 series remakes by 3DAges slated for the US market? Make sure to let them know how much we love Sega Classics Collection and the amount of anticipation we have for the Phantasy Star Collection!"

The deal with Conspiracy died a year ago. They didn't play a role in the current Sega Classics Collection (Sega took everything back and bundled it together and did a US release by themselves). Same with Phantasy Star Collection. Ask Sega, Conspiracy isn't involved anymore besides preliminary work that happened quite a while ago.

[Leo_A]

For my question, ask Atari/Infogrames for information about the upcoming Flashback 2 console that is using a real 2600 on a chip.

Slated for a summer release, imagine they will be revealing information at E3, such as a game list and such.

[Gamemaster_ca_2003]

Atari
- What are you're plans with Sony's PSP
