Gamespot's also streaming the conference, btw.

TheGreatDave · (07-10-2007, 02:03 AM)

That guy must be pretty pissed off having a 360 resting on his shoulder. He'll feel that tomorrow.

Very excited for this. Combined with the possibilities Live offers for demos it should be nothing less than thrilling!

tribal24 · (07-10-2007, 02:03 AM)

Wario64 · (07-10-2007, 02:04 AM)

At least it looks like the 360 works.

Killthee · (07-10-2007, 02:05 AM)

You forgot the G4 link.

ToyMachine228 · (07-10-2007, 02:06 AM)

Can't wait for this. Conferences are always the most exciting!

pilonv1 · (07-10-2007, 02:07 AM)

Who offers a download of it after? I'll be working and would prefer to watch it later spoiler free.

Son of Godzilla · (07-10-2007, 02:07 AM)

This doesn't deserve it's own thread at all, but I found this moderately interesting:

E3 2007: This time the corporate shills work for you!

Jtyettis · (07-10-2007, 02:07 AM)

Ninja Gaiden 2 and Dead Rising 2, uh, please. Probably neither, but a man can hope, right. Drop the price MS, do it, go big or go home.

PleoMax · (07-10-2007, 02:07 AM)

It's time for Halo bitches.

puebla · (07-10-2007, 02:08 AM)

so are there any big rumors? seems like it's gonna be an ok e3 but nothing spectacular.

disappeared · (07-10-2007, 02:08 AM)

Please, Remedy, show Alan Wake. Please.

Psychotext · (07-10-2007, 02:09 AM)

04:30 BST :(

speculawyer · (07-10-2007, 02:09 AM)

Price-cut or no price-cut? That is the question on people's minds.

Dante · (07-10-2007, 02:09 AM)

A tad, early but I'm in. MS gonna have a great press conf.

Yeah, my tech equipment normally gets a rest at that time of the morning, but I will be there dousing myself in coffee, putting my savage beasts under brutal F5 torture.

Anybody got a .gif of the Xbox 360 coming to life in Transformers? (not a spoiler, they announced it over a year ago)

Psychotext · (07-10-2007, 02:12 AM)

I'm determined to get up early rather than stay up... but I know I'll end up missing it.

I was excited, really excited. But now...I just could really care less. My 360 broke and that's soured me. Who am I kidding? I'll be hitting F5 and hoping the latest stream holds up tomorrow night

Coin Return · (07-10-2007, 02:15 AM)

I'm most excited for Microsoft's conference compared to the other two. I expect an onslaught of content on Live starting tomorrow afternoon/night. Can't wait!!

MMaRsu · (07-10-2007, 02:15 AM)

I gotta get up real early to watch this but I will!

WTF is happening where the hand meets the gun???

Also, hopefully Sony's pricecut move was to pre-empt an imminent price cut coming from MS.

He's pointing the gun to the left side of his head, while he himself is in front of him, so he kinda has to twist his wrist...

MS should have a great show!

Dahbomb · (07-10-2007, 02:24 AM)

NINJA GAIDEN 2 + MOORE TATTOO OR BUST!!!!!

manxor · (07-10-2007, 02:24 AM)

Besides the known entities, First Banjo Kazooie gameplay? Fable 2? Halo Wars? Too Human? New IP? New Bungie IP? New Lionhead IP? New Rare IP? New XBLA 1st party IP?

Hmmm, there's a hint there somewhere... can't save it all for X07.

Ryuuga · (07-10-2007, 02:26 AM)

Jumped in and unable to do anything otherwise.

How long will it be before the regular clowns show up?

Anyway this thread shall be fun. As aforementioned I really do hope we get a deeper look at how far Alan Wake has come along. Project Offset as well. *checks that promotional site..sigh*

SpudBud · (07-10-2007, 02:26 AM)

Well, one more day....
