Well, E3 is coming up. We can use this thread to talk about the new stuff that we find interesting that is announced. Microsoft's press conference is tomorrow, so I'll try and watch that if I'm not at work.
Places to watch for news:
Nintendos site The Xbox site
IGN Gamespot e3expo.com
Remember people, you can post news too! Also, post more!
Things of note from Microsoft's Show: -Half Life 2: The Orange Box looks neat -Theres a bunch of neat looking stuff going to Xbox Live arcade -The RE5 teaser was awesome -Halo 3 was mentioned 1,000,000 times -My wallet screams in pain as I whisper to it the games I would like to purchase -Rock Band looks silly -G4 cut to a commercial in the middle of the Halo 3 trailer, pissing off many nerds -The RE5 teaser was awesome
Things of note from Nintendo's Conference: -Old people like the DS and Wii -The media does, too -BRAIN AGE BRAIN AGE BRAIN AGE -Mario Galaxy comes out in Noivember -Online Mario Kart comes out early '08 -They ended to conference with Wii Fit
This conference was VERY close to being as bad as Sony's was from last year. I want vidya gaems, not edutainment, Nintendo.
i want to get my hands on spore...i can't wait to play God as i design creatures to my will and directly affect their beliefs and cultures (hint: uber-religious planet vs. aetheist-scientific-laser-cannon-wielding-death-from-above planet)
you do realize that without christianity, many of the worlds weapons wouldn't have been realized for many centuries. So, maybe your aethiest planet wouldn't be so technologically advanced there joe
I have no basis of fact on the christianity thing, but it makes sense when you think of all the wars over it, plus the fact that organized people generally are more technologically advanced than non-organized people

Openin' dis, E3 started today and I shall provide you all with the important bits.
Microsoft -Rock Band 2 is a 360 exclusive -Resident Evil 5 comes out in March of '09 with co-op -Final Fantasy XIII is coming to the 360 (an epic ****storm ensued) -the N64 Banjo Kazooie is coming to XBLA -Netflix will stream movies on Live -the 360 will get its own style of Miis and a huge dashboard update this fall
Nintendo -Super Waggle -Casual Games -Fapping over sales figures. -WiiMusic -Fapping over sales figures. -Casual Games -Fapping over sales figures. -oh yeah and some GTA game for DS, but that's not important, see WiiMusic? (copied from /v/)
It was the most miserable thing I have ever witnessed. Nintendo Wii confirmed for NO GAEMS
i mean, don't get me wrong. i like my wii but i already have anything worth getting for it and nintendo doesn't seem to want to make more things that people actually want.
