While S_B's opinion is far from the gamer norm, he does have a point in that it makes no difference whether you are there or at home. If we were living in an age where the internet didn't exist and there was no way to send up to the minute information, then going to E3 would almost be obligatory. But since we do get all the info we relly don't miss out of much.

On the other hand, S_B, the reason many are looking forward to E3 is because of the thrill of the show. Like being there, actually being there when they make a big announcement, to see the games long before they are release, to meet the celebrities behind the game and many, many more. So to an extend, going to E3 is more than just trying out games for some.

So E3 is like the ying and yang. On one side, it isn't that big of a deal because we always get the info. On the other, it's an unique experience.

Let's just hope the stream quality is better this year without any skipping or sound delay.

Is GameSpot streaming it live?

Mario · « **Reply #78 on:** April 23, 2006, 10:32:23 PM »

Probably, but it'll be for Gamespot Complete members only like last year. I remember in 2004 it was free for everyone though..

I expect to see the footage posted up somewhere for dl at some point soon after it happens. It always seems to go that way. We'll just have to sit here and wait for someone to tell us what's happening without seeing it first though.

Last year was a blast in it's own way. If I can figure out a way I want to be here when the Nintendo makes it's speeches.

Well here is a good sign that E3 is so very close (10 days)

Sign of the time

Oopps wrong pic, it's fixed now.

Oh it just came in the mail today. I hope the badge for those who are coming with me will arrive Monday.

Isn't G4 broadcasting live from E3?

BlkPaladin · « **Reply #83 on:** April 29, 2006, 10:21:34 AM »

Yes they are. But it doesn't come close to playing the games and getting the swag.

Though I'm hoping for a good show for other reasons.

I'm going to take a day off on Wednesday to enjoy a whole full day of E3. PGC...where will you be? I'd be interested to meet some of you...if possible.

Caliban · « **Reply #89 on:** May 05, 2006, 06:26:40 PM »

To whomever is going to be present at the press conference, please ask what is the controllers energy source if they happen to not mention it.

There's a little bit of low grade uranium in each remote and the Wii. I can see it now, "Wii, the only appliance the Energy company wants you to plug in"

It's got a Shake-a-Light built in!

The finest or the worst, depending on what Nintendo will actually do on the conference.

Not to sound negative, but I hope the conference meets some of the hype it has gathered for over a year now. I would hate it if after all the hype, speculation, whining and bitching the conference ends up being not as impressive as it should've been.

Aren't there some third-party games that should be shown today?

Requiem · « **Reply #96 on:** May 08, 2006, 07:58:21 AM »

I don't Nintendo would allow it.

My final words going into E3:

Nintendo is either brilliant or crazy.

Their goal is to create a new standard of play and a new standard of thinking -- Standard controllers vs. Wiimote. Next Generation vs. New Generation.

They're riding high on the DS right now, and they should be. They could change the game because they're in a position of power to be able to. But their collective egos better be in check. The markets are clearly separate and they're not in a position of power in the console race. If they try to stir things up, they just may find themselves looking at the tail lights of their competitors for a 3rd generation in a row.

E3 won't answer any questions about Nintendo's long term future. E3 preaches to the choir. How excited *we* get based on what they show doesn't matter one bit. It'll be history that tells us whether Nintendo's Wii is to Apple's iPod or if the Wii is to Apple's computer platform.
