Post E3


Well another E3 has come and gone, and this by far has been the weakest one. Granted, the press conferences had the hype and fireworks as always but the show floor was dispersed throughout the city.

For E3 this year, I relied on G4. BIG MISTAKE! G4's coverage of the conferences was horrendous. They would cut to break at the most awkward times and would often not show source footage of game play. Instead a stupid camera guy would film it from afar. That was all not too bad, until the unthinkable happened. They cut to commercial during the HALO 3 trailer! How can G4 screw so many people over like that? I know they later showed the whole trailer but it took them numerous attempts. It was so bad that one time they accidentally aired the OLD Halo 3 trailer from past E3. Anyways G4 sucks, E3 sucked and Nintendo's press conference was boring. Sony came out on top, while Microsoft had a strong second place finish.
