Nintendo Beem

This could just be the name of the technology or gimmick or something. Now there's a rumor that it may just be called "Nintendo".

Yeah it was retarded, but it made sense. Wii focused on getting everyone playing together (We), and the ii's resembled the systems controllers. Beem though. wat?

Did G4 lose the rights to broadcast the press conferences on TV or something? I went to set my DVR and nothing E3 related is supposed to come on until 1pm.

So Kinect is the on-rails system, you can even talk to your 360 while playing Mass Effect.

At least Forza looked hot. Everything else.... MEHHHHHHH.

EA are up now. GT had some exclusive Skyrim footage and good god that was hot.

Watched the show live and it was all junk I don't care about (GoW, CoD, Halo etc).

Got excited at the mention of Fable only to be put off when I saw it was "Links Crossbow Training" with magic.

Trying out that free Kinect Fun Labs thing and it's ok, I guess. THere is no practicle stuff, really. It's the sort of like the Kinect equivilent to those PS1 demos where you got to look at the 3D model of the T-Rex or manta ray.

Cool to try out but no actual game to play. I tried the "Kinect Me" section. Scanned my actual t-shirt design into the software and managed to pick up I was wearing shorts. The face was no where near mine and neither was the hair.

Tried the Googley-Eyes next and scanned in a cushion as that's all I had to hand. Again, it was cool but there was nothing to really do after you scanned it in. About to try out "Build A Buddy" which looks like Googley-Eyes minus the googley eyes.

I did like the very breif glimpse of Forza 4, though, and I like that Minecraft is coming to the 360. I guess I wont need Fortress Craft anymore.

I was overall disappointed with the conference but I'm hoping Nintendo will make up for it with an interesting show.

EA Press Conference Highlights: (VGChartz Live-blog source)

* Mass Effect 3 trailer and footage shown. Major storyline this time around is the Reapers have begun their invasion on Earth. Release date set for March 6, 2012

* New Need for Speed game shown and is called Need for Speed: The Run. Autolog helps play a part in the story, ability to get out of the car, and Frostbite 2 engine is being used.

* Star Wars Old Republic shown off but very little shown in terms of details and footage.

* EA completely drops the dark style of SSX in favor of the more cartoon/colorful style the series is known for. Set for January 2012 release date.

* FIFA 12 set to improve the defending and dribbling parts of the FIFA series and uses a new physics engine called "Player Impact Engine" more than FIFA 11 did.

* Madden 12 barely shown besides having some NFL players on stage

* EA makes fun of Farmville and then debuts The Sims Social as a new game. Plays like a regular Sims game but is a Facebook game.

* Battlefield 3 shown with the Frostbite Engine being revealed more in depth and in footage. Open Beta arrives this September and Battlelog appears to be similar to the Autolog for Need For Speed.

* Overstrike is a brand new game from EA and appears to be class-based for gameplay. Main group of characters are called The Misfits.
http://kotaku.com/5809086/when-ea-an...get-overstrike

* Reckoning was revealed as a fantasy open-world game being developed by 38 Studios.

Nintendo is going to be big, but I hopefully Sony has something big.

That Microsoft conference was pretty lackluster.

Yeah, I hate military shooters, but looking that pretty and 64 player, I may have to get it.

Open beta though, at least I can try it first.
