Like I told a friend of mine, hopefully I'll leave Fallout3 alone and stop going to sleep at 5 am. That way I'll be able to be up by 1 pm when E3 starts tomorrow on G4.

Still looking for a way to get Gametrailers TV. -_-

Jerk. I'll be at work checking to see what's going on through the browser on my phone.

And if you want a good site to get your E3 news:

http://e3feed.com/

It collects stories from top video game websites and posts link and it updates automatically, no refreshing!

It's been a long weekend so I've been up super late for the last 3 days so I'll be lucky if 'm still awake at midnight tomorow to catch nintys conference.

*Shudder* Hopefully we don't get any more mothers day/holiday trip stories from cammy :urg:

Gawd Nintendo's conference was so terrible last year... I'm still having nightmares. They destroyed the Mario theme in front of a crowd of people with Wii Music. <_<

Oh well. I'm sure Microsoft's will be great.

We'll find out tomorrow, and I can't wait, either. Luckily I'll waste the day at work, and come back 'round 4 to find all the details of the conference. Hopefully whatever mystery that still hides in this MGS bull is mostly, if not all, revealed tomorrow.

Microsoft has informed us that tomorrow's press event is beginning five minutes early to account for a very special announcement!

While we have no word on what the "special addition" to Microsoft's E3 2009 Media Briefing is, we've been informed that the event will begin promptly at 10:25am PT, five minutes earlier than originally scheduled.

Obviously, whatever Microsoft has decided to add to the show, it'll plan on covering in a short time. Could it be a teaser trailer for a newly announced title? Or maybe a new partnership to help strengthen their position in the industry? Time will tell and we will be there bright and early Monday morning to bring you the latest news from this week's E3 show in Los Angeles.

I just want more videos and a definite release date for Mass Effect 2. I am soo going no life in that game when I have my hands on it...

Ah! Can't wait to wake up tomorrow, time to set my alarm for 12:40 pm. 20 minutes to brush teeth, make some breakfast and watch E3!

You mean the one racist to Hispanics and loves stereotypes?

IF you don't know what I'm talking about, go play Freelancer. Its a very fun P.C game from 2003. I think it ran off a Modified version of the Halo 1 engine seeing both games have similar looking textures.

There aren't really very many Xbox games I enjoy for some reason. I tried Fallout and didn't like it, and Bioshock just wasn't fun.

Maybe I'm missing the point. Is Bioshock supposed to be fun? Or is it just supposed to be epic with brilliant storytelling technique?

You are aware Microsoft made neither of those games you mentioned, and they are available on PC, 360, and PS3, right?

The one thing I hate about E3: hype. I usually try not to watch the actual events just because either A. I will be annoyed that they are taking so long to get to big announcements, or B. wanting more on big announcements.

For Microsoft's, I am saying either FF13: Versus is on 360 or MGS4/5 is coming to 360. Microsoft has had a string of great announcements from the GTA4 coming to 360 (after being exclusive to PS3) to FF13 coming to 360 last year.

Rumor: New Mario for Wii, Wii Fit Plus Coming?
Evan Campbell 6/1/2009, 12:53am Eastern Time

Two of Nintendo’s biggest surprises at E3 2009 may already be spoiled.

According to IGN Wii, “the online version of Japan's Nihon Keizai Shimbun newspaper” claims that Nintendo will release a new Wii Mario and Wii Fit Plus by the end of the year in Japan.

For Wii Fit Plus, the game will utilize Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection so players can share data with other people and partake in challenges. This new version of the hugely popular fitness game will also allegedly measure gravity and your point of balance better, yet there is no mention of a new balance board.

As for Wii Mario, no details or information is divulged, other than the fact that it’s slated for release later this year.

Rumors about both games have been gaining steam as E3 2009 approaches, now just hours away. For instance, Nintendo just trademarked Wii Fit Plus, giving more credibility to the latest scoop.

Stay with Nintendojo throughout E3 2009, as more information should become available after Nintendo’s press conference at noon EST Tuesday.

Not sure how I feel about the new PSP. I love the fact it has an HDD that nearly rivals the original 360 (16GB in a handheld?), and that there will be no more discs, but I hated how light my PSP 2000 felt. It felt like I could crack it with a turn of the wrist.

A new Wii Fit is unsurprising and unwelcomed. They sold a few million, but the games play numbers were really low with most people quitting after a month. Do they really think they have enough momentum to go for another run.

Wii Mario is intriguing, but they need to do something totally different to actually make me want it. Mario Galaxy was so boring after you realize it's just Marion 64 on spheres.

The PSP series always felt light, and I really couldn't depend on them for their durability.

IF Wii fit 2 doesn't sell well, I think it could be the Straw that broke the camel's back. Maybe then Nintendo will invest more money on the core than the Casuals. Because really, how many casual's by squeals?

I saw the two Spore games listed - don't even bother. Anything in that series will be a waste of money.

Just noticed this comment.

To be honest, I would really enjoy a new Galaxy. I don't feel like they want far enough with gravity manipulation in the original, and I would love to see the idea expanded upon.

But I definately never want to see the mechanics invented in Galaxy ever abandoned.

3 minutes boys. I have the popcorn ready, G4 on the telly, and I'm ready to go.

FINAL PREDICTIONS: too much Rock Band: Beatles and Modern Warfare 2, MGS4 for 360 or the new MGS for 360 (as well as PS3).

Sunshine isn't my favorite Mario game but I like that they tried something different. Honestly, I would probably rate it above Galaxy. Galaxy was a good game but I felt like they took a few steps back with the series.

I'll probably get the PSP Go. I was waiting to pick up a PSP and I like this version more than the other one. I'm not really worried about it "feeling" like it's going to break. Unless you try to break something it's not going to. XD It being lighter and pocket sized makes it more appealing to me.
