Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



I'm here at the Viviana Cathedral in Los Angeles, waiting patiently for the Activision press conference to start.

To be clear, this is not an E3 press conference; Activision has snubbed their nose at the ESA and have decided to hold their own event, not far from the Los Angeles convention center where this year's E3 is taking place. I've just been informed that the press conference will begin shortly, so hit the jump and stay tuned for all of the juicy details. 

Oh, and there are Wolfenstein assets on the press kit CD they handed me. So if that's your kind of thing, pay attention.

Here's to hoping for something Blizzard-related. I'm sure they're just going to close with GH stuff though. I think Harmonix has won on that front, however.

Whoops, bad comment. Also, I definitely care about the game...I'm just pretty sure the movie will suck less.

Well the thing with Bond is that if you've seen the movie, the game isn't going to be that surprising. Well that and since Goldeneye there hasn't been one worth playing.

Where was my poll option for, "I bought 2 guitar hero games and I realized I'd stop playing with them after a week so I traded them in and won't be buying any more music games"?

Marvel Alliance 2. E3 has finally shown off something I wanted to see.

I really like marvel comics and beat em ups with light rpg elements. The two of them combined, even when it was just the X-men games, was simply awesome.

Find out more information guys. Full roster of characters. Secret characters. Unlockable costumes. Specifics on story arcs or comics that inspire them. Request Punisher make appearance in the game.Playable would be excellent, but would settle for cameo. Really stress that he should be playable. Be sure to ask about villains too. Will there be downloadable characters again?

Ask all that and also cocks.
