Nobody's posted a blog of this yet? I thought people might spam it. Oh well. I need some reason to blog anyway. Haven't had anything decent to say.
Watched a few videos of E3. Today's conferences were Microsoft, EA, and UbiSoft. Tomorrow we have Nintendo and Sony. Whee.So let's see. Microsoft of course, talked about their XBox360 motion sensor, called Kinect, or something like that. They spent quite a while going over the games for it, but briefly mentioned Halo Reach and Fable 3. Anything past that I didn't really pay attention to.EA has some sports channel deal going on that cooperates with the Kinect. They're also putting Sims 3 on console, and announced a load of FPSs. Other than that, I zoned out.UbiSoft announced Assassin's Creed and Ghost Recon, and anything beyond that was pretty forgettable.So what's the theme here? Kinect, of course. And FPSs. It's almost overdone and the new thing is starting to get old.Nintendo's not going to beat Kinect tomorrow, I'll promise. They've got, what, Zelda (maybe), 3DS, and a PULSE MONITOR. Yes, an excellent addition to the dust pile. And Kinect is becoming what the Wii is now, a minigame magnet, filled with weird exercise games.Don't get me wrong, fitness is important. But honestly if I wanted to get fit, I'd run around, lift real weights,go to the gym, or whatever. Not play a video game to pat me on the back.And honestly I don't care much about Sony but I'll watch it anyway.But…where oh where are you, Valve? =(Oh, and Neverland too.Please feel free to argue with me and my lack of attention.Also, I did release a game on 64D, only the first world but it's a WIP I promised. And it's been #4 in queue for a week now. Yay.
Haters are hating on Microsofts show. I don't get why. It was alright.
I agree with Mordi. I'd rather have 'em try to extend the console's life than release a completely new one too soon.
If there are any admins reading, we need to incorporate a [sarcasm] tag, because people don't seem to get internet sarcasm.

I don't know about you guys, but Portal 2 has much sexier graphics and even blob physics. I'm smelling Source Engine 2
