I have been following E3 for the past two days and as I had mentioned in an earlier post I would post about anything interesting I saw.  So below is a report of the nifty announcements for each keynote.

Wii:

Nintendo was hands down the most boring and uneventful.  All the games pretty much stunk and there wasn’t anything I found interesting.  They are releasing Mario Galaxy 2 and another Metroid but the game previews weren’t too great so can’t judge them just yet.  The only thing they announced besides the fact they were the highest selling console was some really dumb pulse thingy.  They didn’t even have a tech demo for it.

Xbox360:

The game announcements were pretty average but better than Wii.  The main thing I liked about the presentation was their motion sensor.  It seemed really neat because you didn’t have to wave a stick in the air.

PS3:

Sony really shocked me.  They were hands down the best out of the three.  First off their games looked really good and had some awesome presentations.  What was even more surprising was the motion sensor they demoed.  It was very accurate and unlike Xbox’s demo it had almost no lag behind the actions.

Note: Since Sony just got done with their presentation I will be posting the videos as they become available and also will be posting higher quality videos when they come out.

PC:

The good old PC did get some mentions after some game demos but for the most part the only two things I found interesting was one the fact that APB (All Points Bulletin) is still alive.  I seen that game years ago and figured it must have been dead by now.  The other thing that was surprising was the pretty cool trailer for Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.  It is a mmorpg that will be coming out on the PC.
