Countdown to E3 2005!!!
 

It starts 18th May.

It lasts 3 days.

It is most probably the gaming event of the year.

It's E3!!!


6 days and we'll all wake up and it will be E3!!!

But will we actually be at E3? No. So wup-dee-do.

Tonight/Friday morning (12:30 Atlantic time), the next Generation Xbox is going to be revealed on CTV.

I wish I could go to E3.

9:30pm East Coast USA time. And I can't wait. Though I may be out with a chick. Now I have to decided: hot bisexual, or XBOX2?

Xbox2... it's... SLIGHTLY MORE POWERFUL!

Woohoo, you get to spend 300 (more?) bucks so you can keep playing a couple good games that come out for Xbox. Sounds fun.

I decided on the chick. Anyone watch the MTV thing?

I forgot about it... anything interesting shown?

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/8233/X...ally-Announced is this really it?

I thought Raven was doing Quake 4, not Id?

"Fabled game studios such as BioWare Corp., Bizarre Creations Ltd., Bungie Studios and Rare Ltd., as well as legendary Japanese game creators Hironobu Sakaguchi, Tetsuya Mizuguchi, and Yoshiki Okamoto, are harnessing the powerful Xbox 360 platform to create exclusive games for Microsoft Game Studios."



Hmm, I wonder what unannouced game they could be working on... :D

. . .well?? I, for one, am stupid and haven't the faintest idea...:D

5 days!!!

Anyone want a list of games being shown at E3??

Yea, post a list. That would be sweet.

Dear god I hope you're kidding. And yah, a list would be cool.

I'm gonna watch it on G4techTV.

I'll be getting all the news off IGN. I don't pay them 30 bucks a year for nothing.

I'm stoked to see the Revolution, Zelda, Fire Emblem, Geist, Final Fantasy 12, Dirge of Cerberus (crossing my fingers), the new Ratchet game, new DS games, new GBA software and a look at the PS3.

There's a new Ratchett game??!

:D:D:D:D:D:D

I'm looking forward to seeing the PS3 and KH2...and that seems to be it for the mo...:p

And JR, let's assume I still don't know...;)

Edit:

JR, lets assume I do know now...:D

Yummy list. I'm looking forward to Dungeons and Dragons Online, of course anything by square-enix, few other things.

The new Xbox 360 is the same thing with a make-over :p

I am waiting for the PS3 information that will be released, supposively they are going to have a built in web-browser...So what again makes consoles different from computers? I smell debate...

3 more days!!!

----------

Anyone else been reading about these negotiations between Toshiba and Sony?? They want to join forces and make a new format that is a hybrid between Blu-Ray discs and HD DVD thingies...whatever they agree to in the end is what the PS3 will have...apparently...


Talking about the PS3...Sony are thinking of a possible 2005 release: http://www.ps3portal.com/?view=article&article=105

In a surprising twist on the next generation hardware race, a Sony representative has stated that a year 2005 release for the next generation PlayStation is a possibility. Responding to questions from Jiji news service, Sony Chief Financial Officer Takao Yuhara states, "For the year end sales season, simultaneously building up both the PlayStation Portable system in America and Europe as well as the next generation PlayStation is one option that we have."

Geez...I wonder when the FF games are gonna fianlly run out of steam??

4 in that list, KH2 is gonna have more FF characters than last time...so that's effectively 4 and a bit...granted, they are good games...

Something I read a bit ago...some Square-Enix guy (unfortunately I can't find the article - I think he's one of the guys behind the FF series) is making a copuple of games for the Xbox 360...Xbox finally gets some Square-Enix action...which will also be available for PS3!! Ha ha!!
