The only thing I really care about is that Chinese Democracy starts now.

Hopefully for real this time. Guns n ****in' Roses baby.

Sony got hammered pretty hard yesterday with the FFXIII thing, wonder if they'll have something to counter it today.

Nintendo sneakily announced that WiiMotion Plus (1:1 control for the Wiimote) thing right before MS' conference, so they'll probably have some weird surprise brewing. I just hope it isn't more 'casual' sh*t.

Nothing too exciting from Nintendo.

This all sucks. Prince of Persia looks hot, though.

Sony conference was a disaster. They did show God of War 3 at the end, though. Really boring E³ so far.

E3 isn't much any more these days. Most Japanese developers keep their announcements for TGS.

RE5 looks great and so did Resistance 2. I didn't like the FF13 port reveal, but at least we finally got to see that trailer. I'm satisfied with this E3.

PAX seems to be the way to reveal stuff in the US, too.

Oh my God.

What just happened? ...They were kidding, right? I can't believe I just watched Capcom's entire conference. The whole thing was nothing but really long-winded Lost Planet Movie talk. A film about a horribly buggy game with an equally terrible script.

I want to cry and laugh at the same time. I've been Capcowned At least this makes Microsoft and Nintendo's conference look decent in comparison.

It's sad that Microsoft actually had the best press conference of the three this year. Nintendo had NOTHING outside of the Animal Crossing announcement, and Sony actually put me to a sleep. A 30 second GoW3 teaser wasn't enough.

And I love Jack Trenton, but the ******** they made that poor guy spew this year was terrible. Sony has such a terrible line-up of games outside LittleBigPlanet.

Also, if you guys wanna hear some rambling, we recorded our second podcast last night, dealing with yesterday's E3 stuff on our site.

We really lay into Microsoft on certain aspects of their conference. I'm sure we'll have some kind of super opinionated over-view of all three conferences up sometime tomorrow, as well.

So, Doom, your best news of E3 was of a game that was announced a week prior? SYSTEM ERROR!

Actually, the best gaming news for me this week wasn't even E3 related. It was the revelation of Dead Rising for the Wii. Now one of the three or four reasons I had to consider buying a 360 has been blissfully destroyed.
