E3 begins tomorrow up until Wednesday. For those of you who don't know, E3 is the "
Electronics Entertainment Expo." Durring E3, the biggest and smallest game companies (such as Nintendo, SquareEnix, Silicon Knights, Epic, Microsoft, Namco etc.) reveal their upcoming games and home entertainment systems. This is the equivelent to the Superbowl for gamers.

Since it starts tomorrow morning, you'll all probably still be in school. However, our good friends over at Gamespot are covering the entire E3 show 24/7 for the next three days. That's 24/7, as in [i]non-stop[/i]. At Gamespot, you'll be able to stream interviews, press conferences, trailers, footage and the like at any time. You'll be constantly updated with info on games, next generation consoles, business news and all sorts as it arises. One of the unique features of Gamespot is "On the Spot," which is an hour long live broadcast of editors and staff discussing games. There will be an average of 8 or so "On the Spot" episodes per day (1 for each hour E3 is open) that will be available durring broadcast (as long as you're a Gamespot Complete member, otherwise you'll have to wait an hour after they shoot it). If you want full, complete coverage of E3 and your favorite games, head on over to Gamespot and fill your appetite.

Other than Gamespot, G4 Tech Tv will be broadcasting direct from E3 to give you all you need to know about upcoming games and consoles. I'm not sure what they have planned, but I'm sure it'll be similar to Gamespot's live coverage. One thing to note about G4 Tech TV is that you need to pay for this channel if you don't have satelite. So to most of you, Gamespot will be your best choice. However, I'm certain that G4 will archive all (or most) of their footage on their website's Video section as well.

This E3 will be the biggest one yet. Prepare yourself for the worst!

I'm just looking forward to the PS3 unveiling. The XBOX 360's specs and features so far are very impressive and I'm curious how Sony's system will stand up against it.

Not sure if Nintendo is going to unveil it's Revolution system, but I pray to God they don't f**k up with some crazy, kiddy s**t. Not that I've got anything against kiddy games, but I don't want Nintendo to be left in the dust. They need 3rd party support.

At least Nintendo's got those insane exclusives. Zelda, Mario, Metroid, etc.

And speaking of the exclusives, they did show some new Zelda footage. Particularly that one shot with Link in it.

You know, the one where he turns into that green wolf. I hope that's a signature feature to the upcoming game and not just a one-time event in it[/quote]

But there's just one problem with the superrealistic art style: It doen't [i]act[/i] real.
