Who's not?Woo!^But at least you can play Call of Duty: World at War with the Wii Zapper!
I thought you'd be excited.
I suppose I might be interested if I didn't have an Xbox, but it seems pointless getting games like that on the Wii.
Yeah, the Nintendo presentation at E3 was a bit disappointing. I liked the unveiling of Animal Crossing: City Life and the Wii Music thing but everything seemed like a waste of time. It seemed like they were just showing commercials on the 3 other games they decided to show like the Clone Wars one.
I had hoped they would show something like a new Kid Icarus game.
I could not see any visual difference between the Animal Crossing: City Life on Wii and the original Animal Crossing game on the Gamecube.

Gamespot are webcasting, and Nintendo's conference was streaming from the E3 website too... I don't know about Sony, though.
MisterGaribaldi, totally, but aren't they all? It makes me laugh when some stop for applause, and none are forthcoming.
It's like the audience are saying "Get on with it, you twat."
All the big websites are doing streaming in one for or another.
GTA on DS... I wonder what it'll be like. Now I can chase cars while IN a car!

Hopefully not while you're driving.
There was a bus driving in the UK who was fired for playing GTA:LCS while driving a bus. 
I have trouble picturing the new GTA as anything other than a repeat of the original top-down games, but maybe I'm underestimating the capabilities of the DS.
Sony in 15. My "liveblog" experiment continues.

I doubt it.
Check out the glitches.
Pah. Generic FPS = gaming revolution?
Edit: Although, that was a stonking trailer.

Hold that thought, now they're banging on about new PS2 titles.
Jeez guys, drop it already.

Maybe someone can explain it to me, but I'm completely missing the point of WiiSpeak.
We have several of conference phones in my office and a few video setups as well. We've made the mistake of having both on at once (e.g., voice coming through the video conferencing setup AND through the phone) and it results in a great big screechy garbled mess of feedback. Won't that happen with WiiSpeak and audio coming through TV speakers/home theaters as well? Considering much higher-end conferencing setups can't get around this, I very much doubt Nintendo will be able to.
I'm now reading about WiiMusic. Oh dear...a music game for people with an IQ of about 20 that requires ZERO skill that will wind up next to all the other useless "casual" games Nintendo has released. Go Nintendo!

Not while it's the only thing canceling out the money hemorrhaged by their other two consoles, I guess.
