* e3 2008 Live Coverage Discussion *

I'm not a console person generally, but I must confess to loving my wii.

The netflix deal makes me semi-interested in buying an xbox 360 instead of a media centre extender....but....I can't see many other benefits, been mainly a PC gamer.

Will we get something like netflix in the UK? or can we subscribe to the US version?
 
I can't be bothered to read through 40 pages, so my question is, is there anything interesting worth telling me about?

Erm. MS sort of owned E3 this year, Wii gave a poor but yet fun looking conference, and Sony just shown mainly CGI trailers and 1 or 2 good looking games.

Not sure about netflix uk, anyway if so, you can use your PC to do the same thing.

everything is pretty much standard apart from FF13 on the 360.... i never thought in a million years i would see that. Nintendo had a dull conference and sony released no new stuff.

Wasnt the only CGI trailers the MAG one and GOW3? two out of the 20 or so games they showed? Dont forget people scoffed at the KZ2 CGI trailer and in many ways they have out done it in the game.

well yes but they were also the only new games pretty much, I think thats why people are disappointed, especially after being stung by CGI trailers before.
 
invisible drums for the wii and FF13 on xbox. Pretty much it.

Well I personally don't think they was enough gameplay vids tbh, compared to Ninty and MS, who gave at least 5 mins gameplay on some of the games, i.e Rez Evil, GOW2, Wii Music etc

Majority on Sony was talking about what they had achieved and talking about stuff they had already done.
