Major E3 Leak Detailed

Major E3 Leak Detailed

None

A major rumor, fueled by posters at NeoGaf, has been spreading throughout the intertubes. It looks as though many E3 secrets have been revealed via a leaked marketing packet now famously known as the IntelliResponse memo. The forum has a host of scanned images of the marketing presentation that seem to back up the series of whoppers. It looks as though Microsoft was hardest hit.

Of course, nothing has been confirmed and we have seen hoaxes before, but this may just be a major leak. One thing that looks particularly fishy is one of the scan’s use of the term “Wii Fit Board;” the Nintendo peripheral is actually called the Wii Balance Board (to be more inclusive of future titles). Additionally, a new game called Ultimate Band will be compatible with Rock Band peripherals; this is highly unlikely. Anyway, here’s what the unconfirmed information includes:

· The X360 will get “Avatars” this holiday season. They will be fully customizable and will enter into many titles as do Nintendo Miis. They are set to replace the current photos that accompany Xbox LIVE accounts.

· Tony Hawk’s Adrenaline will come with a motion-sensitive, Wii Balance Board-like peripheral for X360 and PS3.

· Guitar Hero 4 will include 30 songs, two wireless mics with lights, and wireless guitars that have a neck slide function. The neck slide should allow for even better soloing opportunities. Finally, GH4 will let you import tunes via your MP3 player to utilize as if it were a Karaoke machine. Will retail for $179.99.

· Forza 3 for Xbox 360 will include over 400 cars and 100 tracks. As such, it will come with two-discs. Furthermore, there will be limitless customization options and an assist function to help beginners get into the game.

· An action adventure title called The Crucible received an in-depth trailer. It is rumored to be the Silicon Knights game being developed for SEGA.

· Spider-Man vs. Marvel Zombies will come to all major consoles.

· Call of Duty: World at War cover art was included and is not numbered.

· Spider-Man: Web of Shadows covert art was also revealed.

· Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 will allow players to choose their side of the fight by selecting from 20 Marvel legends including Wolverine, Venom, the Hulk, Spider-Man, and the Human Torch. Additionally, you’ll be able to mix powers. The example given was that of Spider-Man and Storm, resulting in electrified webs.

  • There are also games like Wii Yoga, Ultimate Band (compatible with Rock Band?), Transformers 2, and Scene It? Pop Culture Edition.
