That French Canadian is boring me. Too bad you can't fast forward a live stream.

@bluexy, I found working streams at both Game Trailers and G4tv this time.

i think this new guy is worse.
@zeejaytl: i would love to see some form of new RB6. i like to see a SWAT style RB6 maybe. missions in cities streets/office buildings, suburbs, banks, neighborhoods with bystanders etc.

i mean the only place they could kinda go with it would be terrorists n NYC.

I'm about to go back to playing Rock Band. Maybe if I could remember what James Cameron's Avatar was I'd care.

Show something impressive or go home.

I would love a more urban R6. 3-4 player co-op. Badass Multi.

My life would be complete.

10 minutes and we haven't seen a damn screenshot of the movie or the game.

This is worse than Capcom's conference last year.
