Posted by Jason Chen at 7:40 AM on July 9, 2008
It's almost here. E3. The Entertainment Ere... Elephant...something to do with games. Next week from July 14 to July 17, we'll be providing live coverage of all the stuff that's going down with Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and all the other companies exhibiting their stuff on the show floor. Will Nintendo come out with yet another US$99 accessory to build a game off of? Will Sony reveal their Wiimote knockoff? Will Microsoft show their Home + Mii avatar scheme? Will Nyko come out with some crazy accessories? What do you want to see there? Tell us in the comments.

Is bliz at e3? cause if not, I'm good. I highly anticipate SCII and Diablo III sucking away any sort of life I once had, including gizmodo time.
But i'll give up urination time first, giz. My priorities are straight!

I would like to see a new PS3 version with at least a 120GB HD, and everything the 80GB version had (memory card reader, backwards compatibility). And it should be available in black, white, and silver.

I want to see what Microsoft is up to. Theirs been a lot of rumors floating around the xbox360 and I want to see what new stuff they do pull out. Perhaps maybe they'll have a demonstration of gaming using their surface technology?

Nintendo is going to release their own version of the air.
Just like the Wii and Wii-fit, you'll never be able to find it in a store, so you won't even know what it looks like, but you'll still really, really want it.
In the end everyone will find out its just air after all, but they'll still want it.

How about rampant jackassery at a trade show? Instead of just turning off the TVs, maybe you guys can burn down displays and rape random presenters.

please, if you go to a booth, and the game is bad, really, just come back with photos of E3 babes. They don't have booth babes anymore right? but i dunno, maybe the girl who sells peanuts, just bring to us pleasant pictures of something else, if the game can't.
Maybe even some pictures of the sky, the grass, dunno.
"New nintendo wii fit, it sucks?(PICS FROM THE BEACH)"
would be pleasant and hilarious.

And more Fallout 3 stuff, too, please.

Posted 9:14 AM 9/7/08
Hows about impressions and pictures of GH4 vs RB2 if they're on display?.... Maybe a little more info on both games downloadable content (mostly from the GH4 front, I think Harmonix will [mostly] be able to make good on their promises of downloadable content at this point)? GH4's play list?... News on different genres of music for both? I still haven't bit the bullet as far as the whole rhythm band simulator thing-a-ma jig goes, and this waiting around till both come out this fall so I can make an informed purchase is seriously killing me!
Also, if at all possible some PSP game coverage (if there is any to be had that is), cause things look pretty bleak on the psp game front for the foreseeable future. Thankyouverymuch!
p.s. you guys (and gals) kind of rock...

I would like to see Microsoft step up their Xbox 360. They've been lagging behind lately in features, so I think they need to:
Price Cut:
20GB Arcade - $250
60GB Pro - $300 (kinda-sorta confirmed)
120GB Elite - $350
Redesigned Dashboard:
After this concept by The Fanboys, I must say that I'm ready to see an overhaul.
Increased audio/video support:
.mkv is my favorite file format, so having it not work kinda sucks. Also not being able to register iTunes downloaded music blows as well.
Increased USB support:
Sure, I can charge the devices, but in some cases I can;t use them, like with my Samsung Juke.
I own all three consoles, and I must say the 360 has the most to improve right now if it wants to stay competitive at all outside the United States.

@92BuickLeSabre: I think Dook_In_The_Urinal is conflating this that classic Golden Girls episode where Estelle Getty wore a flower-pattern hospital johnny and carried a colostomy bag. Or did I dream that?
Either way, less "All your base.../*facepalm*", more Fallout 3.

I'd like you to squeeze out the system requirements of Diablo 3 for the Mac out of Blizzard.
As well as, if not more important than, the probable, but realistic release date.
That would be great.

So are you guys going to be covering this with the Kotaku guys? Will you be meeting up and swapping coverage and sharing points? I just find it interesting that two sites on the Gawker network are both going to the same event, which can only mean better coverage from two different angles.

I demand more CES style jackassery! I'll even give you a dare or two:
1. I dare you to replace one game with your own. ex: Hack a demo to only play Pong.
2. Do something, ANYTHING, to Reggie Fils-Aime (or whoever is repping Nintendo). ex: Replace keynote vid with white text on a black screen stating something to the effect of: "internet temporary folder is full, reload page?" (the bane of any internet channel user's existence).
Do anything naughty to them and...that thing I said I'd never let you do to me gizmodo? Yea, I'll let you do that. ;}

I just want to know if N-Gage is mentioned at all there... Just wondering if they even go to E-3 also how much stuff there is in terms of iPhone games. Just out of interest.
Also anything ground breaking which I know you'd tell us anyways and maybe a little sabotage would be fun :D.
