As a 360 and Wii owner, I have been pretty disappointed this form E3. All three news conferences have been disappointing overall imo.

Microsoft- Probably the best, but that doesn't mean much. It had good footbage of RE5, Gears, and of course there was the FF13 announcement. New Live interface. Overall, not a lot of new information to get excited about. FF13 is probably the biggest announcment of E3.

Nintendo- Basically all casual games. I don't care much for Animal Crossing, and Wii Music and Wii Sports Resort are just more shallow tech demos. The best announcement is the voice chat option, that will hopefully be available for current games like MK and Brawl. But where is the deep gameplay and great titles? Where is Starfox, F-Zero, Donkey Kong and the others? Snowboarding looked kinds cool.

Sony- Adimittedly I know the least about Sony. So far all I've heard is that God of War 3 was the only thing worth hearing at the conference. The rest was nothing really important. Correct me if I'm wrong though- it's just what I've heard.

I thought it was overall boring with not much new news. There's nothing surprising or exciting really.

E3 always seems to be hyped up way more then it should it be given credit for. Not all of us live and die for cut scenes of up coming games that we could just as easily watch on YouTube next week.

E3 has been a downer so far.

Could you proof read better in the future? I don't know what you mean when you say "I have been pretty disapointed form E3"

ill agree that e3 has been boring, but i cant say im disappointed because it was obvious that e3 is no longer the place for big announcements. the writing was on the wall after last year's poor reception from devs (who were supposed to be the target audience). the tokio game show may remain prominant if youre into japanese style games, but individual gamers days and press events by publishers are going to be the sources of big news from now on.

Worst E3 ever. The ONLY surprise was FF13 going to the Xbox 360. Other than that, there hasn't been a single that I'm excited about that we didn't know of before ( including FF13).

Nintendo: Wii music, Wii sports 2 and Animal crossing? Is that all? Between last E3 and this one, we got Metroid Prime 3, The legend of Zelda:Phantom Hourglass, Super Mario Galaxy, Super smash bros brawl and Mario kart wii. You would think with all the top tier franchises out of the way that they would announce F-zero wii, Star fox wii, Kid Icarus, Earthbound, Mario tennis wii, Mario gold wii.

Sony: I'm excited about Resistance 2, Killzone 2, God of war 3 and LBP but we all knew about these games.

Microsoft: Did any game of value even get announced?
