It has finally come…March 16th is just around the corner, meaning that in a few mere days God of War III will be making it’s way to my house (I pre-ordered it from Gamestop.) I really have no idea what to expect. I have been avoiding reading up on the game, ignoring any review or article I see about it in magazines or online. I have also boycotted the demo and have not touched it, since I did not want to go into the game with any misconceptions based on anything that was not the final version of the game. God of War III is definitely one of my most-anticipated sequels, and would only be overshadowed by the release of a Kingdom Hearts 3 on the PS3.

Once I receive the game, you know darn well that all other games will be stepping aside for the time being, and all my gaming time will be solely devoted to the masterpiece which is GoW III.

I got home from class in time to catch the conference at 12pm, and was able to watch it off of G4. Heres a short rundown of the announced things that got me excited:

-Super Mario Bros. Wii announced. Looks like a classic side-scrolling Mario platformer, but includes up to four player co-op. Knowing how Nintendo is, it is probably only going to be local co-op, but my fingers are crossed that it will be online also.

-Super Mario Galaxy 2 announced. Going to be awesome. Looks just as good as the first one, but with the addition of Yoshi. Cant beat that.

-Wii Sports Resort/ Motion Plus. I was on the fence on this initially, but I will probably get one in the end. Wii Sports was simple and fun, and Sports Resort looks to be more of the same, which is a good thing. If only they would make a Star Wars lightsaber game that utilized the Motion Plus…

-Kingdom Hearts DS. Gonna be great. They tossed the card-based game that messed up the GBA Chain of Memories game, and looks like the classic PS2 gameplay. Im very excited for it.

-Wii Fit Plus. It seems like they fixed a lot of the issues I had with Wii Fit initially, mostly the fact that you can now string exercise routines together to make one continous workout. The having to go back and forth through the menu between exercises in the first one really cheesed me off.

And the weirdest announcement…

-The Wii Vitality Sensor. Looks like a pulse reader you put your finger into, and I guess it measures your pulse and other bodily things. Very, very weird.

Some good news, but no Zelda for the Wii, which was disappointing.

Here’s Joystiq’s transcripts of all the goodness that went down.

Its now 2:00 time for SONY!!!!
