Agetec Unveils New PS2 And PSP Games At E3

Agetec has decided booth babes are stealing the focus at E3, and have decided to launch a tongue in cheek anti-booth babe campaign.  It is designed to remind all true gamers that E3 is not meant for just drooling at the booth babes, but instead be drooling at the latest games being announced.  They have a website up at http://www.antiboothbabes.com

“E³ used to be all about the new titles for the year, but now it seems like a competition between which company employs the hottest booth babes,” said Mark Johnson, vice president of Agetec, Inc. “Sure, we all love beautiful models, but we thought it was time to remember that E3 is about the games, and applaud real people, real games and serious fun!”

Along with that news, Agetec is also announcing 5 new games at E3.  For the PS2: RPG Maker 3, WILD ARMS Alter code: F and Armored Core.  For the PSP: Armored Core: Formula Front and PopoLoCrois.

3 realistic improvements we want to see with PS5 Pro games
A red and blue PS5 stands on a table with matching controllers.

As we reach the middle of this current console generation, people are wondering when improved “Pro” versions of consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X will arrive. PS5 fans had their curiosity rewarded this week when Moore’s Law is Dead and Insider Gaming leaked the specs of what has become colloquially known as the PS5 Pro and is reportedly referred to as “Trinity” internally at Sony.

The leaked documents indicate that the PS5 Pro will have a similar CPU to the base model that can be modified to run at a slightly higher clock speed, as well as 67 teraflops of 16 bit floating-point calculations, a GPU with 60 AMD compute units and faster memory bandwidth, and more. These are improvements over the launch PS5 model, but it isn’t a console generation-like leap in terms of hardware power.

Asgard’s Wrath 2 is a grand finale and new beginning for VR gaming
A player battles a four-legged beast in Asgard's Wrath 2.

I still distinctly remember my first experience playing a video game in VR. I was working at Rolling Stone when HTC came to the office to demo several experiences on its Vive headset. After playing some basic arcade games, I commented that I could really feel that the tech was in its Atari era. The simple game design made it clear that this was just the beginning for VR gaming, and that I shouldn’t expect it to match console gaming anytime soon. It was an experimental ride I was ready to take.

Playing Asgard’s Wrath 2 on a Meta Quest 3 one decade later, it feels like I’ve jumped 30 years into the future. Though games like Horizon: Call of the Mountain and Half-Life Alyx have delivered similarly impressive adventures over the past few years, Meta’s big exclusive takes the tech to a new peak. If those early games I played in my first VR demo were analogous to Atari 2600 games, this enormous RPG sequel takes me all the way to the Xbox 360 era. That’s a quantum leap forward in just 10 years.

E3 needed to end, but its demise is a net negative for the gaming industry
Crowd of E3 attendees in front of the E3 logo and various game posters.

It's official: E3 is dead.

For over two decades, the Electronic Entertainment Expo was the video game industry's most important event. For enthusiastic gamers, it was Christmas and the Super Bowl rolled into one trailer-full event. It served a more important role on the business side, as it was a key way for smaller developers to get their games seen and make deals with publishers. Now, the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) announced it's formally retiring the once powerful event for good. It is, quite literally, the end of an era.
