E3 2010: Clipstravaganza! [Updated 6-17-10]
Now I know I had some pretty harsh words for E3. I mean it was just hours ago I went on a rant for the ages that has almost completely temporarily ostracized me from the rest of me E3 supporting nerds out there. But in keeping with last years theme, I stay vigilante and dedicated to making an entirely too long brog posting about the video released from this overly bloated expo.
Sidenote: Now that I think about it, I'm thinking about writing a 'low lights' of E3 posting in the future. And trust me...Ubisoft is taking up a lot of that.
I digress. Let's get to these fancy clips. I'll keep updating the post as soon as I get my hands on some uploaded video. Up first...Star Wars: The Old Republic...again.
[Update: Here Are The Press Conferences In Their Entirety -- Nintendo (part 2), Sony, Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft , Konami]
Thanks to 1up, Machinima, IGN, Ustream and Youtube for the video!
The E3 Trailer Brog. [Updated 6-5!]
With compliments from Joystiq.com and my non-willingness to get 8 hours of sleep. I've made a brog dedicated to the trailers and videos released from the major companies at E3. As of right now I have: Microsoft, EA, and Ubisoft's releases below. Later on tonight I'll be updating this brog with Sony and Nintendo's extravaganza of wankerdom. Sorry, I'm kinda sullied on going to E3 now. So glad to watch the live stream. It just seems like one of the worst kind of marketing cavalcades anyone could attend. Example: Did you see the Ubisoft press conference? No human should have to endure that for a two minute game trailer sequel.
I've sectioned off the Weird Stuff, The Multiplatform titles and The Exclusives. Let's start this off with what I think the biggest trailer of E3 2009...
***Update [6-3-09]: Well folks that should just about do it! I updated all the video I could find [from Joystiq] and all of the major announcements, barring a couple handheld gems, should be below!***

Star Wars: Old Republic [PC?/360?/PS3?]. I said it once I'll say it again...I'm not into MMO's, but this trailer is pure crack. I didn't see which consoles SW:OR is being developed, but one can only assume it is coming out for PC. It would be interesting to see a big branded MMO go to console. Let's see how this one pans out...
Are Controls Hindering Console Gaming?
Blog Critics just twittered me an interesting article on the pros and cons of the controls of console gaming. It proposes some interesting questions. It's all very interesting
[i dared someone today that I'd over use the word interesting within three sentences]
Microsoft Done With Seinfeld?
Don't get comfortable with this image above. That's right, there will be no more casual run-ins at a shoe store with a one billionaire and a certain millionaire. Apparently, this was all apart of the 'Microsoft Ad Plan'. Pay Jerry Seinfeld millions of dollars for making Seinfeld-noises out of his mouth for a couple minutes. Have this met with a luke warm response from the general public then BAM!
Get rid of him!
