Hiya the few readers we have. I decided to make an E3 thread because its such special news and needs it won thread. Feel free to discuss any news you find and if possible, keep the flaming to a minimum. You'll understand why i say that after this post.
Sony's Pre E3 press conference. Well well well, what to say... Its best you read it yourself (assuming you haven't already). I have links to a few sites, first one has images. Will post for links for downloadable videos if I find them.

They teased us with the Halo 3 trailer this week *l* 2007 now? Argh.. I've been waiting since a week after Halo 2 for this!
But, it looks good  and I'm glad they're keeping the Halo name..

Hey someone else replied, how cool is that.
I have just hopped on the computer and trying to find out what Nintendo's big secret was, so far I have found that the controller has a speaker in it. It makes sense though in games where something happens at the controller, for instance, you play tennis and when you hit the ball, the controller will vibrate as well as make the noise of hitting the ball. Anyway, back to scouring the net for vids.
Edit: Hey, there is the great new thing out called torrents. Turns out you can download press coference vids and pretty much any game trailer using this strange new thing. Plus its much easier than signing up to get the videos.

Crud, there is alot of stuff coming out of E3 (who would have guessed) so lets see what I can put in here.
First off, there is a light gun type adapter for the Wii Controller. Some details and a pic here.

The Dranei are the new WOW race. I thought this info was already released but I guess i was wrong. Anyway

A hands on from Gamespy for the new PS3 controller and the Warhawk game.

Probably not got much to do with E3 itself but it was announced at the same time so here it. Metal Gear Solid Movie in the works.
http://www.gamespot.com/news....6150282
Next Generation ahve an Interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. I assume they will have other Interviews with other developers as E3 goes on.
http://www.next-gen.biz/index.p....temid=2
Think-Gaming have a look at Will Wright's Spore. Looks like an interesting game indeed.

Well I consider this important enough to provide a direct link. Its about Microsoft's plan to have connectivity between Vista and the X360. People from both systems will be able to play against each other regardless of what they have which is quite good to see. Lets just hope that the voice chat isn't filled by arguments about whether the PC or 360 is better.

While I am here, Nintendo and MS press conference details (oops forget to add these in)
Nintendo: http://www.engadget.com/2006....3-event
Microsoft: http://www.joystiq.com/2006....0-e3-ev
Super Smash Brothers Brawl has been announced with a few suprises. It will not use the wii controller but stick with the gamecube for more traditional stlye gameplay and perhaps most shocking is that Snake for MGS will be in there. So far he is the only 3rd party character. Time will tell if this it true or not but it will be interesting to see if others are added.

What was supposed to be a short post grows longer as I see more articles.
Wario Ware : http://www.joystiq.com/2006....h-moves
Metroid Prime 3 : http://www.joystiq.com/2006/05/10/wii-impressions-metroid-prime-3/
Bugger it, these guys have a few hands on too alot of them about the Wii so just head here http://www.joystiq.com/
More news as I feel like posting it which will probably be after I have downloaded a few more trailers.

After much searching I found a small snippet of news about Star Trek Online, the MMORPG game being developed by Perpetual entertainment. While it appears there aren't any screen shots or videos (at least that I could find) they have updated the FAQ on the Website. Here's the link http://www.startrek.perpetual.com/faq.html
Enjoy and if you have anything you want to post, please feel free.
