So, it’s the end of the titillating week that jolted eager gamers had been salivating for, anticipating, for months… The week for the Electronic Entertainment Expo. E3 kicked off with a riveting Microsoft conference and only got better from there… Man, I feel like there is still so much to digest. If you haven’t been keeping tabs on what’s been going down at the video game industry’s biggest event, here’s an effortless link dump for easy access to all the latest, most fascinating news!
As a consumer, I’m stoked for the latest impressive gaming technology that all of the home consoles have to offer and the amount of marvelous cutting-edge titles. Content with this year’s E3 showcases, I am fully convinced that I want to (eventually) own a brand-new Xbox 360 (Stealth edition) with Kinect, a PS3 with Playstation Move and for damn sure, a sparkling, spick-and-span Nintendo 3DS.
Also, if I happen to win the lottery or fortunately stumble upon a massive sum of cash, you can bet your ass that I’d have a 3D Sony television in my living room, to fully enjoy Playstation Move & 3D-compatible, KillZone 3. Damn, it feels good to be a gamer.
