Well since everyone was doing it I had to check it out as well and I joined Gaintbomb and my username on there is FullMetal_Mac, and I hope to see everyone on Gaintbomb as well.
Since some people are confused with what I'm saying here's the website:
Well it's over E3 was officially done as of 6 pm yesterday and I must say I was disappointed with a lot of things about E3. Well where do I begin? I'll break it down into the three conferences I did see and some of the live show I saw.
Microsoft - Well I couldn't watch the first 15 minutes of the conference because the Gamespot servers where down, but once I finally got to watch it and stuff it was okay, but I know Microsoft could of done better first they showed some of Fallout 3 and Resident Evil 5 which was cool and all and after that they showed Gears Of War 2 which looked sick and I'm definitely going to get it this November once it does come out, but that's where the good ended for Microsoft after that Don Mattrick showed the Xbox 360 menu and he said there was an update so he updated his 360 and that's what shocked me the new inference for the 360 looks to crappy to me and I'm glad that I will never update to that inference because it looks to ugly to me and after that they showed off the new avatar feature of 360 which looks like a ripoff of the Miis, but I guess Microsoft is running out of ideas. I also forgot to mention they have this deal with these different companies so you can get movies or tv shows, but that didn't interest me that much. Finally the president of Square took the stage and showed off a few games that are coming to the 360 like The Last Remnant and Star Ocean are coming to 360 which is good because 360 needs some good Eastern RPGs to show that the 360 is a good system to the Japanese. After that he gave the floor back to Mattrick and he was about to rap up what they had shown, but before he could the president of Square had one more announcement and the cameras cut to screen which was hard to see thanks a lot Microsoft, but the biggest news was Final Fantasy 13 is coming to the 360 which is huge and I'm glad because it gives the 360 owners a chance to get a good RPG, but that's pretty much all Microsoft had for their conference.
Nintendo - I got to watch all of Nintendo's conference and they probably had the worst conference of the big three because they just didn't show enough. First off they showed off Carrot Top's snowboarding, oops I meant they showed off Shaun White Snowboarding and it used the Wii balance board which is cool and all and even Cammey Danneway got in on the action which was kinda funny, but she was getting a little annoying, but I guess she was new to E3 and after that she introduced the producer of a new Animal Crossing game that will be online and will use something called the Wii speak which is cool, just hope older games that are online will use it as well. Before that Nintendo president Satoru Iwata was on stage talking about how he first came to E3 and how it has changed over the years and after that Reggie took the stage and begin talking about how the Wii and DS continue to dominate the market and he said Nintendo was not yet happy with the number of Wiis and DSs they have sold and he talked about how they want to get out there to the casual gamers. Reggie than turned to they screen and showed off three games that where okay, but not all that good Star Wars the Clone Wars, a new Raving Rabbits game, and Call of Duty World at War which was the only hardcore game I could see. After that Cammey took the stage again and talked about Spore for the DS and how it will be different from the PC version and after that a new GTA is coming to the DS I can't wait to see how this turns out. Also Cammey talked how the male and female market share of the DS is almost equal. Reggie than came on stage again and showed off the Wii motion plus with a new game called Wii Sports Resort which will take full advantage of the Wii motion plus and Reggie and Cammey where playing a game of it and there was some funny dialgoue between both of them. After that Cammey talked about how the developers will continue to create stuff for the Wii and after that it looked like the conference was over, but then some guy on drums or so it looked like was using the Wiimote for playing the drums and after that Miyamoto made his appearance and looked like he was playing the sax, but in fact he wasn't he was just using buttons on the Wii to make it look like he was and he introduced Wii Music which looks interesting and all and they played the Mario theme before closing out the conference. All and all I was disappointed with Nintendo because of the lack of games they had, but maybe they might show something at TGS.
Sony - Now Sony's conference was the only one that impressed me the most because they actually had a lot of games to talk about they talked about Resistance 2 and showed off a new Ratchet and Clank game and a lot of other stuff as well, but what got me was the new trailer for God of War 3 which was looking interesting. Sony also showed off some of little big planet which is looking to be a great game as always, but since I don't own a PS3 I can't worry about that stuff, but they also announced a price cut for the PS3 which is great and maybe that means I can get my hands on one. Sony also showed off a game called MAG which is a massive action game that supports up to 256 players which is crazy. Sony also talked about the PSP and that new packs will come out, but the only interesting thing for PSP was a new Resistance game which will take place between the first game and the second game. Of cousre they talked about the PS2, but PS2 really didn't have a lot of new games the Sing Star games are boring and they announced a new pack as well for the PS2, but all and all Sony had the best conference of E3.
Live Stage Show Day 1,2,and 3 - This was probably the best part of E3 we got to see a a lot of game demos and the ones that got me the most interested was Resident Evil 5 and Sonic Unleashed. It was good to see RE 5 is coming along nicely and it will be ready for it's March 19 launch. Sonic Unleashed is looking promising because it looks like they learned their mistakes from Sonic 06 and the werehog was pretty cool looking. I just hope it's as good as the original games. One more game that got my interest was MK vs DC I though at first it wouldn't work, but after seeing it in action it's looking great can't wait to see more of the games I also saw.
Final Verdicts:
Microsoft Conference: B-
Nintendo Conference: C
Sony Conference: B
E3 Live Stage Show: A
Well I have a favor to ask I know I change banners a lot, but I though I would just change it one more time I was hoping maybe someone could make me a banner out of this picture with my name in it.
