E3 Expo - Image 1


While all eyes are currently on the GDC event (it ends today, by the way!), that doesn't mean we can't check out what's going to happen around the corner. The next big gaming event will be the E3 expo, and it's scheduled to run from June 2 to 4 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Right now, we got the final schedule happening for the big three - meaning, press conferences done by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. MS and Ninty's sked were actually already revealed before, but it's only today that Sony got theirs confirmed. With all three finalizing their press-con times, we now have schedule set in stone.

Synchronize your clocks, folks! Here are the relevant times when you can go online and cheer for your team as they reveal all their new stuff and announce their future plans:
  • June 1 - 9:00am PST: Microsoft
  • June 2 - 9:00am PST: Nintendo
  • June 2 - 11:00am PST: Sony
Yeah, weird that the expo officially starts on June 2, but it looks lime MS gets a June 1 "closed for press only" pre-expo event.

So, any of you want to place bets on what the big three will announce/reveal? A new PSP model, perhaps? More exclusive games for the Xbox 360? The new Zelda game for the Wii? Will the new Team ICO game finally be unveiled? How about pricecuts?

Anyway, you guys now know the schedule, so make sure you log in during those times (make sure to adjust from your timezone!) and cheer for your team as we give you guys reports online.

Im excited to see what microsofts got under there sleeves. I'm thinking bungies (non-halo) project they've been hinting about for a while now might finally come up. There all hard at work on something and its not ODST as they've stated a small team is working on that.



I'd also like to see some Bioshock 2 gameplay, really excited about that game.



PS3 and Wii fans, please just state what your hoping for.(GOW3/Zelda) For once lets not have a console war on a post lol.

"PS3 and Wii fans, please just state what your hoping for.(GOW3/Zelda) For once lets not have a console war on a post lol."



Thank you for saying that. ^_^



As for myself, off the top of my head... I'm looking forward to LBP PSP, Dissidia, the KH games, Heavy Rain, GoW3, Team ICO's game, BioShock 2 and Mass Effect 2 footage, more of that new Zelda DS game, hopefully a new Zelda Wii game, and quite possibly, Alan Wake. Oh, and Hydrophobia.



And that's just a short-list. There's so much more I wanna hear about!

» Yup...

I want to see what MS brings to the table too. Nintendo on the other hand still needs to prove why I would get a Wii. Zelda would really make that decision for me.



I love the console war for one reason and that's to bring better games to the consumers. The real console war has just begun.

Although you forgot Uncharted 2, Ninja Gaiden, MGS5(I doubt it will appear) and the non-Fable game we have the same list.

can someone please just ban melty. His comments are ridiculous and do nothing over than provoke people. Every article i read seems to have something from this idiot. Does anyone here agree with me that a ban is long overdue. Can't wait for uncharted 2

Well in that case we hope you share the same fate as an Xbox 360.

i.e. RROD.
