It's tonight, guys (if you're american, i'm not)

So, would anyone do me the honor of using this thread to tell me how awesome this unveiling is? The show is on at these times - be sure not to miss it.

I'll have to wait till tomorrow to catch the unveiling on MTV UK, but still ... I'm open to spoilers from you Americans :D
 
mmm that is sat @ 6-9 in the mornin, (next day guys)

11pm USA = 9AM UK
 
In Sweden it'll be tomorrow, 22:00(10 PM).
I'm assuming it'll be something similiar for the UK.
 
Perfect Dark Zero footage so close that I can taste it. Gahh.
 
Hmmmm, its on MTV UK at 20:00 on Friday 13th May 2005

(tomorrow at 8pm)

What time zones are the time listed on the mtv website??

My times I posted were in EST timezone, which I think you might be in, I forgot which part of Kentucky is EST and what the other portion is. :rolling:

LOL if he was then he probably would. He does it all the time in Pimp my Ride

Look all the way to the right. There is an ad saying the 360 will be shown @ 6:30 P.M.
 
Anyone know if the MTV event will be uploaded to the web? I just so happen to have a clan match tonight at the same exact time of the showing, and I can't watch it.

I doubt it will be uploaded officially, atleast not until after the global TV screenings have finished ... Best bet is to look for it unofficially, as i'm sure many people will be recording and uploading it.
 
Yea I'm DVR recording it, because I'm sure I'll miss it :p I can't upload it though :(

It will be very cool event though! :)
 
am i smoking crack or is the MTV special not on? its 6:43PST here, 9:43 ET, like they said, yet it is not on
 
I'm watchin it O_O, so far not really anything new, cept for if you didnt see the leaked pictures.
 
Just saw it, very unimpressed with the graphics. It's certainly not the leap I was hoping for. Perferct Dark 0 certainly looked better than anything out on consoles now, but I'd be hard pressed to say it was better than Half-Life 2 or other top PC games. I was expecting the kind of leap we saw from PS1 to PS2 but in reality it looks like a really beefed up X-BOX. Hopefully PS3 won't dissapoint.
 
I seen it...
Umm...
No offense, but..I expected "better" gfx and well....more "unique" features within the controller and the system. Really it just seemed like.. Xbox with better gfx..wireless..and a virtual place where you can get more money taken away from you.

I mean.... I would have rather of just watched Chronicals of Riddick or South Park...
Guess the Ps3 or Revolution gonna have to do it..
Overall in the end...there just seemed to be no real innovative features.
 
the design of the xbox360 looks very imiliar to the ps2

maybe microsoft thought that will sell
 
Well that was shit. I enjoyed the 10 seconds of xbox360 footage, the 10 minutes of a gay band, and 20 minutes of commercials, (LOL IM YOUR UNCLE :| ). I also liked how the cameras didnt stay on the actual game footage for more then 2 seconds. But it was esepcialy cool how just about every game they showed ether looked like complete crap or was pre rendered. And lets not forget about the fact that it looked like perfect dark was running at 1 fps. Good job MTv.

5/5 stars

Edit: Forgot to mention West coast customs, thanks for pimping my xbox! :thumbs:
 
I forgot to watch, but i saw screens of PDZ...wow....biggest dissapointment ever

Oh dear, you just made my sarcasm detector explode.

Guess i'll just have to wait and see what the actual performance of this thing is. From what i've seen so far it's awesome.

Datrix is not happy with PDZ. :angry:
... please just let this be an early stage of the game. :(

Not sure if they were running on final specs in the demo's, I doubt they were.

They have an alpha developers kit of the Xbox360. It contains only two cores (not three) and has half the GPU power that the final will have. They are simply using an off-the-shelf ATI top-end card, and the final one will be double the power!

So, that might solve the problem! ;)

I thought the show was okay... Definetely not amazing (I mean a freakin' half hour show for the total "revolution of gaming"? Come on.), so if they would have gotten into details, and not just given scarce details and a HUGELY general overview, then I would have been more happy.
 
I think it's hilarious, there's these other forums i post at with a games section, and everyone's an xbox fanboy. They're going berserk, it's hilarious.
 
I was most impressed with the few seconds of Madden they showed. The rest of the unveiling was weak.

It's on Friday at 12:30am on CTV.

...and I hope to God that it is different than MTV's airing. It sounds like it was complete crap.

You're probably right. :cheers:
