This past week G4TV aired E3 2007 (electronic entertainment expo). Micr$oft, Sony and Nintendo all had pretty good segments.
Micro$oft has a big line up for Christmas this year. A lot of new games wil be out for the 360, Halo 3 was def their biggest thing. Call of Duty 4 and Medal of Honor Airbourne looked great as well.
Sony also showed that they too will finally be gettin more then a couple games out for the holiday. Metal Gear 4 and the new Final Fantasy made big splashes for the PS3.
Nintendo revealed many new games, of course they are for all ages, and new accessories for their system. Mario Galaxy and a NEW! Mario Kart are coming. They also have Wii Fit which is a fitness type game that comes with a step board of sorts. You work out on it kinda and u can play some games. nintendo also has a Wii Zapper for first person shooter games. It turns the Wii remote into a gun.
Looks like the gaming world just gets better this holiday season.

I believe that Micrsoft was the most impressive. They have made more than Sony and Nintendo combined and I see them making much more this holiday season.

If the rumor floating around is true about Xbox core dropping to $199, premium $249 and elite $299 on august 1st. Then the console wars is over at least between xbox and ps3..
The Wii is here to stay because it's just a totally different experience,plus mario and zelda, in addition kids love it.

I may seem like a Nintendo homer but I am telling my unbiased opinion. I think the Wii had the best showing by far!!! Tell me a little bit of the stuff that Microsoft displayed, there may have been some things I missed. :thumpsup:

Yeah, Wii has definitely won the early portion of this current round of 'console wars'. Partially because it's much more affordable, and probably even more so because of the unique gameplay. I love my Wii, and so does my son. Heck, my wife even loves to play the Wii, and she usually hates to play video games!

Before the Wii, the closest my wife would ever come to video games was to watch me play certain games that had storylines she could get into. Now, whenever I leave the house, when I come home she's playing something on Wii Sports!
Even funnier, there for a while she was kicking my butt every time on bowling, although my skills on that game have caught back up to her now. :thumpsup:

LOL! Sounds like we would get along good man.. Do I a happen to know you by any chance? My wife does the same thing. For instance, when I play silent hill she watches in suspense. She also beats my ass in bowling.. I haven't had the time to overtake her, I will though.

HA! They must have been separated at birth, man, my wife also loved to watch me play stuff like Silent Hill and Resident Evil! She also liked to watch me play Zelda games, too.
As for Wii Sports, I have caught back to her on bowling, and we are pretty even on tennis, but I smoke her on baseball and golf! (she hasn't played boxing yet)

I think that the Rock band is coming to the Wii. Also, Madden on the Wii is amazing. I love actually being able to hike the ball, lean back and then throw... It is so cool.

All of us should get together and play one massive game of golf on the Wii. It would be like the "Bluegrass open" lol.

There are also rumors of Xbox live gold becoming free for everyone, the new Metal gear Solid coming out on 360 as well as PS3. so we can only hope and see.

Its not up to the publisher its up to Hideo Kojima the devoloper and he said it is not coming to the 360 plain and simple get over it.

I dont care if MGS4 comes out and its so good it takes a dump on every other game ever made. I dont care for those games. I was repeating what they said on G4 TV. I didnt know kojima himself said it was just for PS3. Making it an "exclusive" PS3 games only cuts their profits. To me thats stupid when they could easily double sales if they made it available on another console.

I watched all three so I know what went on. .You must care somewhat about mgs4 because you are the one who brought it up.

I agree, so many times they say that a game is an exclusive for a certain system, and it is at first. Then a year or so later, it comes out for the others after all. I don't care who makes the decisions, be it the developer, the publisher, whatever, but the lure of the green is a powerful motivator to release it on other systems...

AKA Resident Evil 4. In two different generations lol. It is even out on Wii now. It is my hope that RE 5 will eventually make its way to Wii. Is NCAA football coming out for the Wii this year?

There was another rumor they talked about but i cant remember that one so i left it out. I guess that means I dont care about that one.
I did miss some of the Sony press conference, so I guess you know more than me.

Man you need to watch the Metroid Prime 3 trailer. It is also (in Cartman's words) freakin' sweet.
