Off to E3
Well, I’m off to E3. This year there are nine of us from GF! heading out. It should be a great show, what with the Wii (whee!), PS3 and XB360. I’m very excited and optimistic about what we’ll see. We’ve got a really great crew heading down, too, including Jeremy K and Matt J, both of whom are old-school GF! staffers. I think it will be really interesting to see how their perception of the show differs, because I believe E3 has gone through some serious changes since three years ago. In general, it’s a much more restrained show, although it’s still a helluva spectacle.
I set up a moblog for the E3 experience on GamesFirst!. You can check that out here. I’ll be making image, vid and audio posts throughout my journey to Los Angeles. Poor Sarah is staying home this year, so she’ll be keeping the Xbox company. Fortunately, even the Xbox 360 has E3 coverage this year, which is pretty awesome: The only place for HD quality E3 videos. What a racket! And I’m such a sucker for it…
Have a great time at E3 if you’re going. Drop a comment here if you’ll be around the show and I’ll reply so we can hook up and put you on the GF! Moblog (or we can just play a few rounds). If you’re staying home, well, it’s not that bad, really. Most of the cool will be available instantaneously through sites like www.E3Insider.com and various outlets. I’m also liking GameTrailers.com a lot lately; videos in both WMV and MOV formats are nice, plus they have pretty much everything I look for when I go there.
