Doesn't look like Nintendo's rolling out too much.

I'm sorta regretting getting a Wii

Nintendo's press conference:
wii.ign.com/articles/889/889593p1.html

WiiMotion and WiiSpeak sound promising, but they just keep moving their focus on casual games now. There wasn't a real title announced there that was really gonna push the Wii to the limit. I mean they're probably wiping their asses with $100 bills so of course they're gonna keep doing what's getting them filthy rich, but it's still disappointing.

Summary
--Animal Crossing: City Folk
--WiiSpeak voice chat
--WiiMotionPlus 1:1 peripheral with Wii Sports sequel
--DS exclusive GTA (wtf)
--Wii Music

Now for Sony's conference. Should be better than last year's but then again they set the bar pretty low so that's not saying much. I'm still hoping that they put in a giant enemy crab cameo.

Nintendo kind of disappointed me. I was expecting the new Kid Icarus game at a minimum. I was also hoping for a new F-Zero game.

Sony's actually looked pretty good. MAG just looks like a freakin' awesome game, no matter how you look at it.

I didn't watch anything, but from what I read this seems like the gist of Sony's conference:

e3.gamespot.com/story.html?sid=6193898&tag=latestnews;title;0

--Resistance 2
--God of War III
--New online store
--$400 80 gig PS3 with no backwards compatibility (wtf)

RE5 still on for PS3

FF13 for 360 is a big surprise though, PS3 lost one of their biggest exclusive. Big win for microsoft.

Nintendo...big disappointment, no big games announced.

You know, after trying out the backwards compatibility on my PS3 (I have the 80GB one that actually has it), I have to say that it really does suck. I just ended up using my brother's PS2, instead. It now makes sense to me why Sony is still marketing the PS2.

The PS2 has a huge library, though, and to cut that off from the PS3 is a pretty big mistake.

Also, crazy's right, the PS3 version of RE5 is still on. I should've checked more than one article before posting that.

The PS3 is still in working movement with select games , but PS2 has a huge library. I think sooner PS3 will be like PS2 in the long run!

Fuck Microsoft. They postponed an announcement that Bungie has been teasing us with for damn near 6 months now.

The Gamespot interview with Peter Molyneux was very interesting. The game looks like it's going t be fantastic, and I really hope it eventually comes out on PC
