I'm more excited about the Sony press conference today to see more PS3 and hopefully a price.

Come on Blizzard! Burning Crusade release date and the new Alliance race FTW!!

All I seriously care about. Everything else is just filler. A Rockstar annoucement would be welcomed as well.

Pretty excited about Sony & Nintendo's Press Conferences today and tomorrow. Kojima Productions MGS4 trailer will probably be the hightlight of the show for me.

Screw the games. I can't wait to see the droves of virgin slobs flocking from booth to booth, drooling over games they will preorder and denounce months later when the final product doesn't match their unrealistic expectations.

Just stay here for another year or so then.

Mostly looking forward to Nintendo. Seeing what all is going to be made for the Wii is going to be awesome, and they've been keeping a VERY low profile as far as the DS is concerned. Hopefully we get some juicy new DS announcements.

Next up is Microsoft. Squeenix is announcing two more games for the 360, and while I hate Squeenix, it'll be interesting how this plays out for the "market share" battle. I'm hoping they have something other than Halo 3 as far as big surprises though. COME ON RARE!!!! YOU'VE BEEN HINTING AT KILLER INSTINCT 3 FOR YEARS NOW!!! FUCKING DO IT!!!!!


Sony... I couldn't give a shit less.

I definitely want to hear more about the PS3.

I'll be watching the E3 live coverage from G4.

 

[zer0hue]

Valkyrie Profile for PSP will be released in US on July 18, 2006

Whoops. Better sell my minty, dust-covered copy of that crappy game while people still want it...

 

[jeff bogard]

I'll be reading what people post here. People here have done excellent in the past.

Aside from not having cable. Out or respect for TV, I wouldn't watch G4's coverage anyway.

 

[Mark of the Wolves]

Sony's press conference should be going on now...can't wait to hear the news.

Aside from not having cable. Out or respect for TV, I wouldn't watch G4's coverage anyway.

I'm currently looking at it right now. Some pre show narrated by Adam Sessler.

 

[AlphaONE]

Will Capcom show anything on War Of The Grail?
The Capcom arcade game.

The sonic the hedgehog trailer is the worst thing ever

Squeenix lied then. Or maybe MS is announcing the games? I don't know. I don't really care. I don't think those guys have made a good game since... shit... Chrono Trigger.

Sony Press Conference blog with some pics. Updated as it goes on.

 

[OrochiEddie]

i'm wondering if SNK will announce anything this year. Also I'm hoping for an announcement of more bemani games coming stateside.

something for gt5 would be a treat as well
"Powered by Cell. CD, DVD, Blu-Ray disc. Bluetooth, WiFi, ethernet. Dolby Digital Surround Sound. Legacy SD to full HD support (1080p). wireless controller, up to seven player, pre-installed HDD. USB, Memory Stick, SD, Compact Flash. gigabit ethernet cord, removable hard drive"
ho....ly.....shit
ps3 wins

 

["Macho Man" Butta Supremo]

ps3 wins

that all depends on price.

 

[abasuto]

I can't wait to laugh at some dude looking like a schitzophrenic parkinson's patient by playing the Wii.

 

[Nesagwa]

that all depends on price.

And on the features they shave off between now and release.

And those pesky game things.

And it really can't win, because Nesagwa wins.

just watched Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer (coming 2007)
bah, I expected to see something more (lol @ Snake going to shoot himself)

other than that it has been an incredibly slow and boring show

I havent seen anything that caught my attention
