Ugh Tony Hawk lost it's appeal years and years ago. Skate is the one to beat now. No interest in stepping on a balance board to play this. Lols "the best way to experience skateboarding" is with a REAL skateboard which costs about the same as the game + peripheral! :P
Ok IGN is working for me now, but if someone can please post some mirrors it would be much appreciated, I just KNOW the major sites are going to crap out at some point today, tomorrow or Wednesday. Wow 10 new never-before-seen games? If those are all exclusives, big news indeed.
Everything crapped out on me so far ..... can't seem to view it anywhere now

I am in the same boat man. :( Sadpanda. How the hell do we manage to explode the internet year after year? I wish I still had cable, I would just watch it on G4. Can someone please provide a link to a lesser-known site or a mirror or something? I am dying here and want to start watching before they get into the real meat of it. Thanks guys.
Well, we broken the Internet yet again this year... So much for technology.

LOL I don't get it. These sites should triple their bandwidth for the week of E3. This happens every year. All the major sites get way too much traffic and some huge announcement breaks the internet for an hour. I bet today it's Halo 4. I have a feeling it's something of that magnitude and I am sure the internet will break for half an hour at the very least.
None of the big sites are loading properly for me. All the other big dogs like Youtube, Facebook, Yahoo, Google are working flawlessly, so is everything else connected to my network. I have a feeling a storm is brewin! Someone please post a link to a site with less traffic. All the ones that come up when you Google them are just chugging right now. Man I am excited.
Holy crap I can already feel the increased traffic. Gamespot is reeling, so is IGN, so is G4TV. They are all taking forever to load. There will be a megaton that shuts down Gamespot for at least an hour today, mark my words. Which IRC chan are you guys using to discuss the coverage live?
[QUOTE="nVidiaGaMer"]Point is you won't be able to play Crysis 2 on a $200 PC but yes for a $200 console.Vandalvideo
How do you know? By the time it comes out, that 450 dollar rig may easily be 200. $450 dollar rigs that can run Crysis are a fantasy. Everyone who makes these ends up just listing what it would take to upgrade an existing computer. They never take into account a display, an OS, a KB/M. Sometimes they leave out other things. Crysis does not take a $2000 PC to run well, this is true, but I still think anything reasonable, from scratch, ends up in the $600 to 800 range at least, which is as much as I paid for my PS3, so not completely ridiculous. PC gaming is the best kind of gaming on the planet when it all works well, but putting together a brand new PC for $200 is still a pipe dream.
Edge...I dunno, sometimes I just get the feeling they give lower scores just for the sake of giving lower scores.

you just described Gamespot reviews as well ;)
Examples? It's possible you mean games like Fable 2, Mass Effect, Zelda TP, and Empire: Total War which barely missed their expected 9 scores, but in general Gamespot rarely goes that far below the norm. Some sites and mags seem to score games poorly just for the increased traffic. Gamespot has had some misses, but often over the past couple of years they are a little above the norm as well. Recent examples are Dead Space, Assassin's Creed, Resistance 2, and inFamous.
I am pretty excited for FUEL after reading about the open-world scope of it, but EDGE seriously has the worst reviews in the industry. Those guys are a butt of jokes to me and my friends. For example I'll tell my roommate some crazy megaton rumor, and he'll be like HOLY **** where did you hear that? And I'll go "I read it in EDGE" and then he bursts out laughing. 4/10 for ExciteBots when it's used as a selling feature of the Wii this year is pretty puzzling... oh wait, no, it's not puzzling, it's EDGE and their horrible excuse for games journalism. Another great thread BioShockOwnz, cheers for the screens and putting in the effort.
