So who's keeping up with all that shizzle fo'rizzle? Any comments about what you've seen, what you think you'll see, or just general statement about your vision in relation to E3?

Well, I'm a Microsoft fan girl. (Not by choice necessarily; my father works for the company, so I was born into it. Lol.) I watched the MS conference. I was slightly unimpressed. Seemed like a whole pile of sequels and add on's. What happened to any new original stuff?! Come on game people! There was entirely too much focus on the Live aspect. Speaking as someone who has a silver account but previously had no Xbox Live at all, well, all of that new stuff is cool...for people with high speed Internet, which surprisingly isn't everyone. I wish there had been more focus on games.

I'm excited about Fallout 3, Gears of War 2, Rock Band 2, and Guitar Hero 4, seeing as I am now a rhythm game fanatic. Lips looks interesting, but I'm slightly skeptical about it. I wish I was interested in Final Fantasy to be excited for 13, but I'm not. So...that's that. I'm not really sure if I'll watch Sony's conference. I've never been into Playstation, so yeah. Though, there's a good chance I'll be watching Nintendo's.

So...what say you all?

Personally I've fallen from most consol gaming because, I've found new hope in PC gaming. As I said before I'm a huge fan of Warcraft I, II, and III and recently with World or Warcraft, Burning Crusade, and soon in November Wrath of the Lich King. Also I'm wait for Diablo III which is gonna be sweet, so yeah. But, I still play Morrowind and Oblivion whenever I get bored with my PC games.

There are wa-a-ay too many games coming out this Fall/Winter! I'm going to be broke, and I don't even live on my own. (Good thing, too. I'd have to decide if I wanted to eat for a week or play Fallout 3.) That's good though. I'm excited, especially since I'm heading into the industry myself.

I'm almost half thinking of buying Fallout 3 (or getting my dad to pick it up from work because that's what he does) for all of the farking vomit Bethesda has been spewing about it. I've never played Fallout before, so I have no idea what it's about, but at this point I'll just take what I can get until they either decide they're going to start development on TES V or gut me and tell me it's over. (P.S. where the fark do you watch Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo conferences at?)

I watched it on G4 TV. They always cover all the big video game show events. I'm willing to bet you can watch them online though.

I personally, cannot wait for Fable 2. It looks great! And all the new stuff is amazing. Like dogs and babies, and full-time co-op mode. DOGS AND BABIES PEOPLE! :P

Lol, you should check out Yahtzee's review of the first Fable. It's on youtube, and maybe when I'm not piss tired I'll link you to it.

So I've officially purchased Mass Effect (used, I wasn't about to pay full price for it) and I've reserved my copy of Fallout 3. They asked me if I wanted the regular version or the collector's edition, but I was thinking that whatever minuscule features they added to the collector's cannot possibly be worth the extra $20 bucks when the chances are I'll play it, beat it, and trade it back in for Gears of War 2 or Fable 2 or something else.

By the way, it took me approximately 15 used Xbox games to pay off the $60 US that the game costs. Plus my 10% bonus for having a Game Stop Edge card (which I paid $15 for anyway, wtf?)

That reminds me that I should pre-order a copy of Rock Band 2. It's coming out soon, and I gotsta have it!

Mass Effect, though...I absolutely did not like it. Maybe you will; I don't know. Good luck anyway.
