E3 - Image 1Can't make it to the upcoming E3 Media and Business Summit? You can still experience the excitement in your own living room (in high-definition, no less), provided that you own an Xbox 360. The hottest happenings in this year's E3 can be accessed through Xbox Live's second annual E3: Bringing It Home special, from July 10 until July 13.

Selected game trailers, E3 highlights, as well as gamer pictures can be downloaded from Xbox Live, so you won't be left behind from all the fun and excitement that's going to take place in the annual gaming mecca. Xbox 360 owners can also view Microsoft's E3 2007 press conference in high definition, as well as game demos for the following featured video games in the Electronic Entertainment Expo:

On the other side of the fence, the PlayStation 3 won't have the same content available for PS3 owners. When asked if Sony has plans of making E3 available for its own next-gen console, a Sony representative had this to say:

Unfortunately, with Home still in beta, there is really no way that we can re-construct the E3 experience online this year. The beauty of Home is that we can stream media into it. So, even the lobby could serve as a showcase for demos and videos in the future. But that's not something we are doing this year.


More E3 updates as they come.

are you serious? bioshock and assassin's creed? WOW!!!
i cant wait!


   Re: Shatterdome - 2007-07-04
 » Well..

QJ is infamous for it's horribly worded articles....so "Demos" probably means video demos....and SOME real playable demos, but probably only for stuff comming out soon'ish

We could see the bioshock demo....MAYBE a pgr 4 demo....proabably demo's of the EA sports games, but who cares about those.

MAYBE burnout and COD 4, but doubtful, since they are so new....

I'd like to be wrong and see all those as demos.....my internet provider will hate me, but oh well...


As for PS3, I am sure that they will have some videos of the games they are showcasing. Also a demo or two. Really, if they don't and MS has all of this content, it would just be a nother dissappointment on Sony's part.

I actually thought about that, that sony could just make like an "E3 Floor Apt" were you enter and it's setup like the real E3, then you can wander to the tables and see videos, access demos....that'd be nice, but guess we will see next year.

Out of all the games Id only want to see stuff on Assassins creed and... yea thats all

   Re: m (Unregistered) - 2007-07-05
 » Then you suck

How can that be the only game you want to see? There is a game in every single genre at this E3, do you only like action-adventure-platformer games or something?

will we be able to download Demo's for the listed games? or will we have to watch a video of some idiot playing them?

nice job Microsoft! ton of games. *applause*

Just because those games are listed doesn't mean that we'll get demos for all of them. I'm only expect 3 to 5 demos during E3, and it possible it could be less than that.

Youre a good representation of a Sony fan. You instantly believe the hype of whatever sony says just to hook-line-and-sinker customers in.

How do you know that home wont be a big flop ?
o next year we have games next year we will do this next year wake up

   Re: Shatterdome - 2007-07-04
 » Well...

Sony is notorious for that....they said we would be getting a service to download music and videos to our PSP's....still waiting on that one. Also, all the good accesories have only been launched in Japan, as usual....so it wouldn't surprise me if it takes them forever to implement their "promises" on the PS3 as well...

I know home wont be a big flop cause I already used the beta n its crazy (and that was before the update). And I think you need to wake up, or stop being sleepy. Cause your last line made no sense at all.

Anyway, the news posted is related with the Xbox 360. It has absolutely nothing to do with the PS3. If i wanted to read such news I would've gone to the 360 website, not the PS3 site. I visit this section of the site for PS3 news, and ps3 news only. Blimey..

Thx for pointing that out - I'm not alone, then.

 » Just a quick question!

Isn't this the same E3 that almost unanimously is said to have lost it's mystique by PS3, 360, & Wii fans? So what is so special about this?

   by OGHugo (Unregistered) - 2007-07-04
 » PS3

If I had $50 bucks for each time I powered on my ps3, i'd still be paying for the thing..



   Re: Folding Junkie! - 2007-07-04
 » Me Too!

Only because it hasn't been shut off since I bought it! But if B. Gates got $50 for every faulty XBOX he would be twice as rich as he is now!

 » idk about you but...

if you look on the psn store the main title shows E3 logo and a radio tower...so i belive we will be informed by sony, one way or another

also to the xbots saying sony fanboys belive the hype too much....at least their not in denial of a 30% failure rate... just wanted to even the playing field

*shao kahn* "FIGHT!"

 » You Guys Are G@Y

As always we have the Pees3 girlz in here trying to flame on us 360 owners that look foward to a awesome E3 show. I guess you Dumb #sses could find more info about E3 by going online but not us, we will have exclusive jumpoffs on all the new games coming up right from our living rooms.

You F#gs can wait to next year to see if lying #ss sony will give you tards E3. There is something you F$gs can do though and that put some veggie burgers on that George Foreman grill you call the ps3.


Owned.

peace
