Hey guys. E3 is this week and the festivities begin tomorow with the first of the pre-E3 press conferences! Here's a quick schedule of events:

Monday
Square-Enix Press Conference - 1:00 PM PDT
Sony Press Conference - 4:00 PM PDT

Tuesday
Nintendo Press Conference - 9:30 AM PDT
Microsoft Press Conference - 12:00 Noon PDT
Konami Press Conference - 3:30 PM PDT

Wednesday - Friday
Games!

What will be revealed at these conferences? Well... Sony and Nintendo should be revealing EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING >_>; Wii and PS3 announcements plus the second wave of DS and PSP stuff. Microsoft will likely give us a Halo 3 trailer and the second wave of 360 games. Square Enix should reveal Final Fantasy VII: Milked to Death and some other stuff. Konami says they will be revealing Hideo Kojima's Wii title plus of course "other stuff" =P

Basically. I have no darn clue. We'll find out tomorow. It's the three hardware people everybody is looking at.

http://www.gametrailers.com says they're going to be streaming a high quality version of the Nintendo conference. http://www.gamespot.com should be streaming all the conferences live as well. The website I work at, http://www.qj.net, will have downloadable versions of the conferences shortly after they end.

If anyone wants to read my article hyping Nintendo's E3 Conference, you can see it here:

I spent over an hour writing that so it'd be nice if people actually read it =p

there
Thanks for that summery. SO they are making FFXII on ps2 and FFXIII on PS3 if i understand well? I've seen a few FFXIII preview pics and was blown away but i haven't heard anything of the FFXII game. I will be downloading the pressconference soon because I really need to see all this stuff. Its going to be amazing Smile
Oh my GAWD Sony. Go and die please.
Price Announced. 2-tiered like 360. Really expensive.
Launch Date Announced (Nov17 for us in NA, forgot Europe)
PS3 controller has motion sensing like WiiMote, but less freedom.

Wow. Just Wow.

The Square-Enix conference was good, I was happy to see Dragon Quest coming to the Wii (and DS)... but OMG, stupid Sony >_<. I can't believe them!
What sony did isn't that bad and the prices are reasonable..I honestly will never need a huge hard drive. I just hope the PS3 is backwards compatible.
PS3 is backward compatible. The 60gb version comes to $700+ when I include tax and a game...
Ok, now that is just ridiculous..They copied the two different console types, and the controller motion-sensitiveness...They need to be sued or something <_<
Haha, whiners. The technology has been around for over 15 years, Nintendo wasn't the original producer of it anyway. Now Nintendo has lost it's biggest redeeming quality and everyone will whine about it until the next generation.
Well, it's not like it's the first time Sony just so happened to have the same technological aspects of other systems.

Cases in point:
I believe the rumble feature on controllers
wi-fi
Other stuff I really can't think of right now because it's almost midnight and I haven't gotten a decent nights sleep in weeks.

And whining is far from where I am. I am just in shock that once again this has happened with Sony and one of their consoles.
