Microsoft’s E3 Press Conference
Jun 14th
…was a pile of crap.
That’s all. That’s literally all I have to say about it. Microsoft had a great E3 presser last year and it seriously went down to this.
Microsoft’s press conference was pretty much all about Kinect (the official name for Natal) and some of the games it can do, and although you may have been satisfied if you were a more casual gamer, for a more hardcore gamer like myself it was an absolute disappointment.
What I’m sad about is that I almost feel tempted to pick up the redesigned 360 they introduced at the end, which will include a 250GB HD and built-in N-mode WiFi for the same price as the current 360. (The redesigned 360 was also shipped today and will be available by the end of the week.)
E3 2009: Nintendo Press Conference – HOOOOOOOOOOOOLY CRAP
Jun 2nd
It was a short conference, but Nintendo definitely learned from its lesson after last year’s weak showing. This year, they pulled out all the stops and announced something for just about everyone this year, and it’ll have hardcore gamers dusting off their Wiis in anticipation.
Nintendo’s press conference was pretty much rattling off game after game after game, a lot of which the core gamer will enjoy. There’s a full list of what they announced after the jump, but be warned, it’s LONG.
