You're talking about the 3DS that sold faster and more than the DS did in the same time span, right? And in a worse economic climate to boot? If it sells that well, I'd be amazed.
I'm sure there were reports of poor sales at the beginning of the console's life due to a lack of launch games, but I could always be wrong.

Either way, my point is I don't expect this to sell too well.

I can't get the microsoft stream to work, but I doubt I'll miss too much.

The 3DS indeed had a slump that was rectified by that global price cut. That, along with tons of now-released games, well, sent it to heaven, indeed.

I'll be reading the transcript tomorrow. Bet there'll be a lot of transcripts on gaming sites.

Unless you like Halo or Gears you missed nothing. It was pretty much that and the rest all Kinect stuff.

I wasn't sure what I expected from the Microsoft show, but nothing really stood out for me.

I am sure Xbox fans will have enjoyed it, but from someone who doesn't own one, in my eyes, no real reason to jump out and buy one.

Yeah, I wasn't really bothered about either.

At least Kinect has got a decent, and personally hilarious, use coming up. Almost seems like a shame I sold my Kinect now. :P

SmartGlass sounds interesting if the idea is implemented well enough.

I'm watching the EA presentation right now. Nothing is speaking to me. I liked the look of Sim City though, for PC.
There was nothing. Followed by everything. Swirling, burning specks of creation that circled life-giving suns. And then we reached to the light.

I have yet to see any of the conferences. ): I'll probably watch a recording or something because unfortunately the time zones clash for me.

I'm pretty much looking forward to what David Cage will do with Beyond, the successor to Heavy Rain. I liked Heavy Rain, it was a pretty decent game, I hope he fixes up all the issues and releases a better game :D

Oh wow, that speaker was so hilariously bad. I can't believe how much I cringed when her and Tobuscus were complaining on the stage.

Ubisoft had a pretty good E3 at least. I don't even care about Assassin's Creed but I'm definitely interested in AC3 now. Watch Dogs looks absolutely amazing too, I'm not gonna lie. The only thing I'm not interested in is Splinter Cell, which was always a mediocre series popular for wanking off conspiracy theorists.
