E3 News Conferences: Live Streaming Coverage

[evilmax17]

Sony is Monday, May 8th at 4PM PST
Nintendo Tuesday, May 9th at 930AM PST
Microsoft is Tuesday, May 9th at 12PM PST

Currently we know that Gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/e3/index.html)will have Nintendo/Sony live, and MS an hour after it finishes. This is all free. There is also a running countdown for each conference.

Nintendo's official site (http://e3.nintendo.com/) will have a live stream of their own conference.

The official E3 site (http://www.e3insider.com/e3tv/) might be offering some feeds.

Gametrailers (http://www.gametrailers.com/nintendoconference.php) will have the Nintendo conference live.

Gamevideos.com (http://www.gamevideos.com/) (associated with 1UP) is rumored to have live streams.

Sweet, thanks for the links OP.

[Genocidal]

Can we get a vBookie on how many of these sites will go down from too much traffic? ;)

[OzCatter]

[Swift900]

I asked Cheapy for E3 bookie events and he never answered me. I think he is busy filming drunk dudes in Japan.

Yeah. Son of a bitch! :bomb:

[Scorch]

1130am can't come soon enough.. I remember trying to watch it last year.. I hope there's less lag than last year.

[evilmax17]

We talking about the Sony conference here? Or does someone want to make a thread for it.

[Dr Mario Kart]

This is a historic opportunity to have Sony lie to your face LIVE. Its gonna be great. With the delay in the PS3 launch, they probably have 5 or 6 dimensional games by now. I've literally got popcorn ready for this.

[Nightfall]

Well, I've got 4:04, and nothing yet...

[evilmax17]

Come on Gamespot. It's 4:04PDT for crying out loud!

[spoo]

Stay tuned, gamespot broke my internet.

Unless you have some news of a delay, it's supposed to have started 10 min ago.

I don't know about you, but It's still saying "stay tuned" for me.

[FriskyTanuki]

echo, echo, echo. Anybody getting anything from GameSpot at all?

[dberuvides]

God damn it!!!! 7:10 and nothing yet!!! I guess the people at Gamespot didn't have the sense to add more server space for the shit load of people trying to stream this at the same time.

[Scorch]

Nope, still the "please wait" screen

[RelentlessRolento]

lol... I think the sony guys are having a burrito break and forgot to turn the cameras on...

[Apossum]

Unless you have some news of a delay, it's supposed to have started 10 min ago.


whoops, you're right. my bad.

[RelentlessRolento]

whoops, you're right. my bad.

[Darkside Hazuki]

These never start on time. Nintendo was 25 min. late last year.

[dberuvides]

Who is going to pre-order on Tuesday if EB and Gamestop start taking pre-orders?

[Zoglog]

well website worked in IE, strange it worked in firefox before too. still stay tuned haha, and it's 4:15. Of course it's not untypical for these things to start a bit late.

[sonicfreak5]

any day now....

[RelentlessRolento]

they say sony is having a slight delay.

[spoo]

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/705/705742p1.html

IGN says it is running late.

[FriskyTanuki]

Well, I've got class so I can't watch it now. I was hoping to have 10 minutes of power point presentations before I had to leave, but whatever. At least I can watch it tonight.

[SpottedNigel]

Yeah, they had that Beck music loop for 25 minutes last year...god that got annoying.

[RelentlessRolento]

Yeah, they had that Beck music loop for 25 minutes last year...god that got annoying.

I remember that... this year they say it will be Kenny G or Yanni

[dberuvides]

Just got off the phone with my local EB and was told that a corporate e-mail was just sent out , 45 minutes ago, saying that the PS3 pre-orders will start tomorrow if a price and date are announced tonight. $50 down and no bundles (in- store only). Bundles will be sold on-line

That's interesting. I just called my local gamestop and the (female) rep told me they hadn't received any info. She said it would be at least a week before they even received an SKU.

[SpottedNigel]

C&C MUSIC FACTORY 2007 EDITION

Awww YEA boiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[sonicfreak5]

lets sing
(chorus) Brass Monkey - that funky Monkey
Brass Monkey - junkie
That funky Monkey

Got this dance that's more than real
Drink Brass Monkey - here's how you feel
Put your left leg down - your right leg up
Tilt your head back - let's finish the cup
M.C.A. with the bottle - D. rocks the can
Adrock gets nice with Charlie Chan
We're offered Moet - we don't mind Chivas
Wherever we go with bring the Monkey with us
Adrock drinks three - Mike D. is D.
Double R. foots the bill most definitely
I drink Brass Monkey and I rock well
I got a Castle in Brooklyn - that's where I dwell

(repeat chorus)

Cause I drink it anytime - and anyplace
When it's time to get ill - I pour it on my face
Monkey tastes Def when you pour it on ice
Come on y'all it's time to get nice
Coolin' by the lockers getting kind of funky
Me and the crew - we're drinking Brass Monkey
This girl walked by - she gave me the eye
I reached in the locker - grabbed the Spanish Fly
I put it with the Monkey - mixed it in the cup
Went over to the girl, "Yo baby, what's up?"
I offered her a sip - the girl she gave me lip
It did begin the stuff wore in and now she's on my tip

(repeat chorus)

Step up to the bar - put the girl down
She takes a big gulp and slaps it around
Take a sip - you can do it - you get right to it
We had a case in the place and we went right through it
You got a dry Martini - thinking you're cool
I'll take your place at the bar - I smack you off your stool
I'll down a '40 dog" in a single gulp
And if you got beef you'll get beat to a pulp
Monkey and parties and reelin' and rockin'
Def, def - girls, girls - all y'all jockin'
The song and dance keeping you in a trance
If you don't buy my record I got my advance
I drink it - I think it - I see it - I be it
I love Brass Monkey but I won't give D. it
We got the bottle - you got the cup
Come on everybody let's get ffffff

[KaneRobot]

This was from the first cassette I ever bought with my own money. I don't think "Licensed to Ill" was appropriate for a 2nd grader, but whatever.

[sonicfreak5]

4PM PST -- Rumors are flying with all of those attending as to what will be shown, but most have yet to enter the building...


4:05 -- The event is running late, and everybody is still getting into the event floor. Talk amongst yourselves, as we are doing the same.


4:10 -- Everybody is still getting in. Late... Have you guys been browsing the Boards (http://boards.ign.com/playstation_3/c5057) recently? Lots to talk about...


4:20 -- Heh, 4:20 y'all...


4:21 -- We apologize for making a "4:20" joke. We're ... you know, waiting.


4:25 -- The event is "officially" running late. It will not begin until everybody is able to get in, and many are still outside the door awaiting seating (if not everybody -- it's difficult to see from the vantage point of our editors how open the doors are. Please stay tuned, as the conference is running a little over half an hour late but will begin in the next few minutes.


4:44 -- Any minute now. Or not. But hey, all of the numbers on my watch will be the same in 44 seconds...


4:44:44 -- Cool!

WTF Gran Turismo HD looks EXACTLY the same as GT4, down to the flat cut out vegitation...not a good way to start a demo reel.

[Genocidal]

I'd imagine most of that is the fact that your stream isn't in 1080p.

[SilverPaw750]

I'd imagine most of that is the fact that your stream isn't in 1080p.
Maybe...but I think Ridge Racer was a bad choice for a hype machine for a PS1 emulator...there's already a Ridge Racer on PSP...with most of the tracks from the first game...

If they had done FFVII...the conference would have exploded. :lol:

[SilverPaw750]

Wow, Heavenly Sword looks GREAT.

[DrunkTigerWoods]

Did they show a new controller or give a price?

[SilverPaw750]

Did they show a new controller or give a price?
Yes and yes. New controller: PS2 Controller in silver, wireless, and with tilt sensing capabilities. Price: $500 for a 20Gig HD, $600 for a 60 Gig HD.

[Rig]

I was afraid Sony would copy Nintendo...

And I won't have a PS3 until 2008 at the earliest...

[FriskyTanuki]

Where can I watch the Sony press conference? Nobody seems to have it up for viewing. :-( I'd like to watch it tonight if it's possible.

I'm wondering that myself.

[Moxio]

The feed is over, and I believe GameSpot should have a downloadable version up soon (according to their site).

[FriskyTanuki]

The feed is over, and I believe GameSpot should have a downloadable version up soon (according to their site).
It says it should've been available an hour and a half ago, so I'm not sure when it'll really be available to download.

[Foolman]

It says it should've been available an hour and a half ago, so I'm not sure when it'll really be available to download.
They are on a delayed schedule because the conference started an hour late.

[FriskyTanuki]

They are on a delayed schedule because the conference started an hour late.
I know. That's why I'm not sure when it'll be ready.

[FriskyTanuki]

GameSpot's Low-Res Stream is up!

[Z-Saber]

Approximately where is the Warhawk/Dual Shock "3" footage? Near the end?

[Foolman]

Yes. Probably somewhere in the last 20 minutes.

[Z-Saber]

On and off topic, but that looked incredible clumsy.

[evilmax17]

Less than an hour to go. Bump for anybody that needs the info.
