So most of us if not all watched the conferences the last two days, some were surprised and shocked and other were mad, and some well they feel asleep lol. Personally Microsoft did good I was very pleased when they showed Alan Wake and it looked great, now I can't wait after seeing it. We all got to see Halo: ODST which looked really good imo, and then they even announced another Halo games, so now all the freaks can go crazy once more. The new Splinter Cell looks really promising also, I've always been a fan of the series so I can't wait for this. Other than that I was actually surprised to see a new Left 4 Dead, seems like not to long ago we got the first game, but hey who don't love killing zombies.
Nintendo I ain't got a Wii or DS so I wasn't going into this one looking for a lot, what did I get nothing really lol. Really the only reason I watched it is because my brother has it and well I want to see what he might be getting later on. I mostly got bored through this one, we got some new Mario which was a big surprise, imo we need more Luigi yea that's right the other brother. But there's a new Metroid Prime, which a lot of people liked and I can see which its a great series, I was hoping for another Zelda game but I didn't see it. I was also hoping that they would at least show a little something on Silent Hill: Shattered Memories but I didn't get that either.
Sony was the one that I was really looking forward to and well they gave me all that I want and then some, the first part I got bored with but then later it picked up for me. Is anyone else a big fan of Gran Turismo? Lol I don't know if I spelled that right, but I've never really followed it. Not only do we get Final Fantasy XIII, but they already announced XIV also, that was probably the biggest shock for me. Then the big daddy lol God of War 3 yea it looks awesome, and I'm for sure al ready going to get it. Rockstar also announced a new game just for PS3, which excites me because I've always been a Rockstar nut lol.
I know there's so many more games but I just felt like writeing something since everyone else is I felt kind of left out lol. But there it is did you get what you wanted? Or was there something else that you wanted to see?

I got most of what I wanted.
EA's conference was much better. It was short but solid. I'll just say that BioWare stole it obviously. First with two awesome trailers for "Mass Effect 2" and glorious "Dragon Age: Origins" and second they concluded conference with awesomeness of the awesome which was the masterpiece cinematic for "The Old Republic".
Overall I'm very happy with the whole show. Cheers
From Nintendo however...I did not...I wanted to see them be gone forever. But I did see them Fail their conference! So thats a thumbs up!
@Minishdriveby Lol thanks for correcting me, I ain't played many of the Metroid Prime games so I'm not familiar or a big fan of it. XIV can't believe it's another mmo, I didn't even play FF11 because of this but I might this time.
@Beechbone666 Thanks for leaving me such a big and good comment. As much as I'm excited about L4D2 I would rather of had something about HL2: Episode 3 to, I've been wanting to hear soothing about it for so long now. It makes me think that Valve isn't worrying about it, hell Half Life destroys Left 4 Dead any day in my book.
I didn't get to watch EA or Ubisofts yet so I guess I'm going to have to watch it, or at least skip through to the good parts that they had.
@PolskaKing As much as I wish Nintendo would do better I wouldn't say I would want them gone forever.
@skullflower The Last Guardian looks really great, and I'm about positive I'll get it when it comes out.
@skyyfox1 Yea Alan Wake looks great, I'm sure by next year we were playing it we'll be talking about it in the scary games thread lol.
@Fishbrain8 When you get time to check them out you'll most likely enjoy them, they showed some pretty good demos especially of Uncharted 2, and God of War 3. There's also plenty more besides them to, hope your exams go well for you.
@SGTiD1NG0 Yea the PSP part did get boring but after that it was all good.
@lilasianwonder Lmao I'm sure we can find you a small animal somewhere, I wish Valve would of showed something about Half Life 2: Episode 3 also.
@Agent_Breadcrum Yea I have a pretty good feeling that this will defiantly be the best Splinter Cell yet. Since the last time I saw it, it looks like they have changed some things but I'm not sure about that.
@ZanarkandTidus Yea Sony had a great year, I saw a lot of things from them that I wanted to. Only other thing I wished they would of showed was White Knight Chronicles but it's all good. Other than that I'm very pleased with the way God of War 3 looks so far.
I hope FFXIII, which will also get a PC release, does a better job than FFXII and add more spell effects, summons and characters older than 15.
I think I got what I was hoping for in E3.
What I didn't get was that there was still no mention of a new Twisted Metal. Jaffe confirmed back in 2008 (when people deciphered the code in the TM Head-On port) that there will be a new Twisted Metal for PS3.
Since then, not a peep. I know God of War 3 still needs to get out the door but, at this point, I'm beginning to think that he was just yanking our chain or trying to get more people to buy a PS3.
