Excellent cant wait!

Thanks for doing this Jodou, my employer blocks most gaming sites except CAG, so this will probably be my only source of info, so your efforts are MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
 
Seems the Assassin's Creed Brotherhood trailer leaked this morning along with the release date of 11/16. PC should be a simultaneous release this time, draconian DRM included.

In other news, Project Natal has reappeared under the guise of Kinect to mild applause. Most seem to be unimpressed, but the real test will be when it's shown to the general public today.

MS just posted a link to where the live stream will be xbox .com/en-US/community/events/e3/briefing.htm but if you look at the source code you can get it on a clean page at gametrailers .com/netstorage/livestream.html witch im assuming will have all the keynotes since they are the web partner for e3

i cant post links so there is a space between the .com

Also live.twit.tv is doing coverage ass well.

It seems my start time for MS is incorrect and it will actually start at 10am PDT. Either way, wanted to make sure anyone who read my start time earlier was aware of the change. T minus 30 and counting. . .

Still 25 minutes to go, so I don't expect to see anything yet.

Gamespot just took a shit, so that stream is down.

I'm watching it. Not so great,but better than nothing and something to do before it starts.
 
Gametrailers is at least doing something ... Anyone got the name of that black & white sidescroller they were talking about maybe 5 minutes ago?
 
Wow its MW3: Vietnam....oh wait nope its black ops. After the disappointment that was MW2 this game looks like its done nothing to separate itself from it. They're using the same engine again.
 
Last cod i played was cod4 and have no need to play another but blackops looks fun i guess...and wow exclusive stuff meh
 
[quote name='xeno']lol cutting water melon minigame i might have to get the game.[/QUOTE]
Nah, It's probably just one of the dumb things you can do while playing the main game.
