E3 08: Contest reminder - blog your brains out, win our swag photo

Just a quick reminder to post your E3 impressions up to win one of five E3 swag packs -- everything we get our hands on is bound for someone's mailbox! Pictured above is one of our favorite finds: a special edition army green 1942 logo shirt to commemorate the remastered 360 release. We have three to give away along with comic books, posters, squishy things, buttons, and other questionably cancerous items that will make you the most envied geek on the block.

We're also giving away two Xbox 360 systems, Soul Calibur, faceplates and more. Check out our contest page for the details. Good luck!

Ok -

MS: Great show Gears 2 looks incredible as did RE5 and Fable 2. The Dash redesign is sexy, Netflix is sweet and the ability to load the disk on the hard drive is A+...o and Portal XBLA = :)

Sony: cant wait for Resistance and God of War III...other then that nothing else really interested me.

Nintendo: What can I say other then I was completely disappointed in everything shown (we knew about Wii Motion Plus before the show)...

Overall an OK but not great show...

god damn, I'm not nerdy enough to win that shirt, but I'd certainly wear it.

But if it was a 1943 shirt, I would suck robot cock to get it. I fuckin' LOVE 1943.

Damn.

That shirt is so awesome. Classy, classic (WWII art) and sexy. Nice tie in since it's Cammy from SF also.

E3 was cool. I think MS really stole the show. Especially for a year where everyoen was saying "Sony has this year cornered for games" MS really came out swinging.

Sony I would have liked a little more from them. It's not like they don't seem to be having a good year, but just expected more.

Nintendo I'm just honestly not impressed with. Maybe if I owned a DS. But owning a Wii, I want more mature focused games. Deadrising would have been cool if it wasn't the fact I own it for the 360 and no way is the wii version going to hold up.

You know, I really have nothing to blog in relation to E3, but that shirt is so incredibly awesome, I'm almost tempted to pull something out of my proverbial ass for it. Seriously, I love that. Very, very old-school.

I liked E3, some big news came out of the event. I love my PS3 so I was pumped to see the MAG preview. I'm a BIG Battlefield fan and think this type of battle will rock! I was exited to see some new footage on Resident Evil 5, Co-Op is huge, can't wait to play the game with a buddy. Nintendo did disapoint, Wii music looks so lame.

PS: I want that shirt!

It's amazing how well the Penny-Arcade strip summed up the E3 pressers this year.

Microsoft sort of blew me away with upgrade after upgrade to their already solid Live experience. The new UI is a welcome change over the blade system. They obviously are watching what Nintendo is doing and attempting to make improvements since the Wii is #1 so far this generation. The Netflix announcement was HUGE! Being able to utilize Netflix's movie downloading without having to hook my computer up to the TV is great.

As much as I love Sony, their presser was sort of depressing. They keep promising cool stuff is coming, but it all keeps getting delayed time after time. I was completely stoked about Fat Princess till I heard it's not coming out till next spring. If they had released that in a month or two, I think it might have given Castle Crashers a run for its money. Sadly the movie download system is too little too late. Unless they are able to provide thousands upon thousands of movies available for download in the next month, it can't compete with the MS/Netflix deal.

Nintendo is on a completely different plane. They are so far in the lead with everything, anything they do people will likely rush to the stores to get it. I have to commend them for doing a lot of things right. Though, I am getting a little tired of Mario ____ titles. It would have been nice to have that motion control add-on when the system first came out. A lot of games could have really benefited from that.


All in all, E3 is dead and you could tell that no one really cared about it. It'll be interesting to see the announcements in the next few months, hopefully some pleasant surprises!
