After hours of E3 video viewing of gamespot live demo sections which buy the way was greatly done I know that many don't like the new E3 But for some reason it seem more information was pass down though the media I love the one on one demo with gamespot at e3 this year really able the viewers to get a feel for the game and the mind behind the games.
While watching these videos of beautiful game and great game-play(for some) The first thing i did like many others i'm sure is look at which controller there using PS3 or 360. Some games the controller was absent so i had to pay close attention to the screen to see what buttons pop-up for an attack, jump,etc. The reason this was important to me is because of what the people who made the game think is best to display assuming that they what the system that plays the smoothies,best graphics, and overall system to show off there games on. For game that were multi-platform 360 was the clear choice for developers even for games that were first announced for the ps3 they display the 360 like assassin creed,dark sector and many others it seem Ea was the only developer that went to ps3 for one game that's burnout I'm guessing that a better system for burnout. but need for speed on the 360 with it's great smoke technology.
exclusives i also looked at because i am not a fanboy i just love good game Mass Effect looks amazing for the 360 and littleBigPlanet looks for what i don't understand all the ps3 exclusives are a year+ away so what's the point of really talking about them I understand that 360 has Halo 3 but if anyone memory serve them right last year the focus was Gears Of War, Dead Rising,Ghost recon. and sorry madden. So what do ps3 owners got to look forward to this year why should i buy a ps3 this xmas i guess blu-ray player. By the way heavily Sword looks cool but i think i'm not the only one who think this game will fall short and gran turismo coming out next year looks great also but that is not coming out for about 2 years gran turismo for the psp still not out yet think about it. Please comment on what you notice this e3. Please check out destroy all humans it look fun.

It's not a matter of being good or bad.
I posted that on my profile a few days before i got to see the new Brothers in Arms, and they do this in that game, it's not "health-bar", it's a "risk-meter" and once it fills up you get shot and die.
So no need for me making games, devs are already thinking about new stuff
Anyway, i suck at modeling, coding and this stuff.
"Next-gen"...
Eeew
The only reason that may drive me to buy a PS3 is MGS4.
The same happened with the early 360 stuff, except Oblivion and Gears of War, the sight when you emerge from the sewer tunnel in Oblivion to see the outside world was awesome.
Its only now that stuff like Mass Effect, Bioshock and Crackdown (to a lesser extent) actually change the way the game plays and what you are being asked to do that makes the leap from one generation to another more noticeable.
