Discuss your favorite E3 moments for this year :).

Well holy shit i just saw the Xbox 360 game preview. Fallout 2, RE5, Fable 2, GoW 2...man they are all going on my wish list.
Not to mention that Microsoft just announced that video games are the biggest entertainment industry, and that they are at the top of it.
i guess microsoft really will take over the world lol.

I still havent seen the PS3 or Wii previews though.
discuss

You mean Fallout 3 (I hope). Microsoft is only on top if you also include the massive install base of XP and Vista. I heard that they were going to announce DirectX 11. Hopefully they simplify the code so that developers can more fruitfully utilize it. My guess is that it will be a more powerful API, but it will take more powerful gpu's. Each successive API will probably display slightly diminishing returns, so that the improvements will not be as large (DX8 to DX9 was larger than DX9 to DX10). Of course, that's very speculative, and it looks as if (I just read a news article) it won't be announced till July 22-23. Some big titles I'm looking forward to include Fallout 3, Crysis Warhead, and Dawn of War 2. Unfortunately, all of the games that I am looking forward to are sequels, but Fallout 3, Dawn of War 2, StarCraft 2, etc. should be far enough advanced over their predecessors to be almost entirely new games.

I always miss the E3 coverage! (Mainly cause I stopped watching G4 ever since they took Portal off the air)
Anything on Rock Band 2 yet? I saw the song list and drums and am in awe.

We're talking about Microsoft, the company that monopolizes and screws people. Besides, if I had that much money from ripping people off I'm sure I'd give some of it away too.

Looking forward to Animal Crossing: City Folk, with the new WiiSpeak, and I think I'll also have to get Wii Music, but I'll see. I'm hoping they announce Pikmin 3... I have been waiting for that game for sooo long!

Nintendo's sucked major ass. Except for Animal Crossing. Seriously.

Sony's had some great titles shown - God of War 3, Ratchet and Clank, MAG (256 players in a match? wtf), Killzone 2, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, etc. So did Xbox - Final Fantasy XIII, Fable 2, Gears 2, Fallout 3, etc.

@Falkoner: Iwata and Miyamoto confirmed new Mario adventure for Wii and platformer for DS, Zelda Wii, and Pikmin 3.

Rich people do shit like this so they don't seem like bad people to the public.

It would be like if Wal-Mart would go to the third world countries their outsource their products to and gave each worker a lollipop in compensation for paying them $0.20 an hour.
