Jeremy - Is it now mandatory for every Australian video game writer to wear a hat that looks exactly the same as the ones Yahtzee wears  Nice wrap of the event.

You are mistaken sir. Yahtzee wears the same hat as me!

I have to admit, I only got interested in the game after the shenanigans at the press conference  That's something I didn't think that I'd see E3...

Hope you had fun. Looks like it would have been an interesting one to go to with all the motion control stuff and 3D stuff going on. Good to see that all the majors had a lot going on.
This will either be a milestone for gaming or the year that fads took over for a bit and soon died out. Or more likely - a bit of both.

A few puncuation errors in that article.
That and calling Sony scattered and unfocused are disappointing.
Why should they have to focus on one product and push it? I think having a number of key products is massive.
And yeah the 3DS might have Wii like graphics but so does the PSP. PSP owners like myself know the console has great games. Sure it's on it's last legs and sure the 3DS sounds bloody amazing but Sony don't need to announce a new portable until next e3.

Yeah good article, although in my eyes I see it being a bit symapthetic towards nintendos standpoint.

The problem is that other than in Japan the PSP is basically dead. Yes it has some good games that come out for it, but not as many as the DS (this is coming from an owner of a PSP since near launch and a late DS adopter), and when it comes to product recognition the PSP is leagues behind the DS.
Basically I'd think the point is that they need to pull a Microsoft, release a new PSP before the 3DS comes out and try and get as many sales as quickly as possible. The second the 3DS comes out any PSP sequel is doomed to not do as well as it possibly could. Plus Sony should try properly supporting the sequel from launch this time. Instead of treating it like crap for 3-4 years and then suddenly going, "Oh no we're not getting any sales!" and releasing games as it's dying out.

3DS sounds and looks great from the vids.
Nintendo had a great show (hmm unusual for me to say that) looking forward to a bit of old skool DK County. Bit meh on the Zelda stuff but we will see how it shapes up. Knowing Nintendo we will probably have to wait a year before we get all this.
MS despite all its massive cash and resources still seems like the 2nd cousin all the time @ E3. Kinect did look ok but the pricing is up there so not sure how that will translate to casuals etc. In my mind 360 is a core players console.
Sony had a good hit out but they lost the chance with The Last Guardian not available.
Enjoyable E3 and tks for PLAGN's coverage.
