So if anyone watched the E3 coverage on G4 the past few days, Microsoft held a very enjoyable press conference. We got to see some previews for new amazing games (Halo: Reach, Halo 3 ODST, Mass Effect 2, etc.), witnessed new motion control gaming, and even got a surprise from Hideo Kojima himself! Anyone else care to share their thoughts on the conference?

This year, Xbox 360 completely slayed the competition at E3. Definitely the strongest press conference I've seen in a while. They bested the Wii with Project Natal and they stole MGS from Sony, which just made it better to be a 360 gamer. I was completely floored.But I thought it was weird that they opened up with Rock Band: Beatles.

I agree with you 100%. Sony with their God of War(still a pretty decent game i guess) and Wii with their...accessories i guess you would call them?...got completely destroyed this year. Sony and Nintendo spent too much time talking about how much they sold of this and that. What I was mad at was that G4 didn't have the commercial free spotlight they had for everyone else. Nintendo really didn't have much to show this year, they even showed stuff from last year(Wii Sports Resort)! Nintendo's biggest reveal was that of Super Mario Galaxy 2. Sony did have more than Nintendo, but I think it still lacked. Sure M.A.G. looks good with its 256 people on the same server, and God of War 3 does look amazing as well, but they kinda killed what they had going with the stupid motion wands or whatever they call them. That looks just like the Wiimote. Microsoft just took the cake with all the reveals, surprises and just plain awesomeness. Natal looked great(I liked what Molyneaux did with it), ODST rocked people's socks off, and the reveal of Halo: Reach was an utter surprise. L4D2, Crackdown 2 and many others that are X-Box exclusive wiped the floor with what Sony or Nintendo had to offer.

There is already a news thread about this E3....but yours skins by on the slight difference yours is a specific discussion...however...while I won't close this, because the other one is inactive..I will warn you. I think I'm being awkward though....peh.On the subject, I managed to catch a glimpse of it on video. God of War 3, while amazing yes, is a bit awkward this time around. They kinda changed the playing system a bit and it seems off somehow, at least to me.Original news topic :http://www.dgemu.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=440393

Well lately i've just seen Shai posting alot of topics. Anyone going to warn him or is that ok? Topic spamming with just a few titles is really lame. I mean why would you do that? Just for some ROMS? Or just for some cool stuff in the gp store?
