    Hey Twist, then are you starting a thread for each of the Major conferences, or are we discussing them all in here? If we are discussing them separate, then maybe you can just start them so that after the conference we don't get 20 "XBOX conference OFFICIAL Shindig!" threads


    edit: on a complete side note, I would like to add that this year is going to be the first year where I have to honestly make sacrifices... There is simply too much crap coming out, too much, and that's because I don't own a Wii. Mass Effect and Dragon Age in the same season, Batman, Ghostbusters, dogs and cats living together, Red Dead Redemption, Call of Juares, FF Dissidia, and that's the shit that's announced.

    I just hope Nintendo makes up for their shitty performance like what happened last year.

    I can't imagine Nintendo scoring another coup with Wii Fit Plus (or whatever its going to be called).
    It seems like everyone I know that has a Wii bought Wii Fit and no one actually uses it.

    Nah, I'd rather do what I have been doing and go to the gym. I really enjoy running, and despite the tredmill being stationary, at least it feels like forward motion. I can't see myself running in place with the Wii Fit.

    Got my DVR primed and set to record all of G4's coverage. Looking forward to this.

    And Twist, I really think you should reconsider having seperate threads for each of the Big 3's press shows. We did it like that last year I believe, and it worked pretty well. Otherwise, one single thread is gonna get really convoluted with talk from 3 different press shows.

    1:15 (hour and 15 minutes) for MS's conference. Yeah it would get pretty convoluted, but fortunately we have an entire day before Sony's press, so we have a whole day to discuss MS.

    This, pretty much. Any genuine ball-exploding megatons will be judged on a case by case basis for their own threads, but I really doubt we'll see any this year. Plus all the relevant info will be in the OP making it fairly easy to search out what you're looking for.

    I'm pretty pumped for this years E3 after being incredibly underwhelmed last year.

    I'm going to be broke from all these good games coming out. (not that I'm not already broke)

    What I'm looking forward to the most is more of anything on Final Fantasy XIII.
