Halo? Really? Way to milk every last dollar from a tired IP there, Microsoft. I just wish that they would try a new IP out. That would have likely saved Microsoft from finishing dead last at this E3.

It looks terrible IMO

Remember when Nintendo used to focus on making great games rather than shoving in more and more stupid gimmicks into everything they made...

I'm on Vita's side, but Wii U's putting up a BIG GAME.

Wait, there is a new console but they just showed the controller.

OMFG!

It's not being developed by Bungie, so don't expect things to feel the same.

Vita is a portable. Wii U is a home console. They aren't in direct competition. Vita's biggest competitors are the 3DS and the iOS platform.

Gaming has always been about gimmicks. Remember, when the Rumble Pack was introduced? It was a bulky controller attachment that came with Star Fox 64. Now, we take it for granted. Remember how much sh** Sony got when they released the Sixaxis without support for rumble?

No, the controller isn't a console. The console is a little white box that connects to the TV.

I found that out, no thanks to the conference.

They showed it during the presentation. It was sitting next to the TV in all of the demo videos. It's even at all of the demo stations. You just didn't do your homework.

Besides, how in the

could the current Wii pull off HD graphics? It's running what is essentially a 730 MHz G3 processor. In other words, it's a suped up iBook.

Nintendo did their fair share of game announcements at E3 this year. I'm sure that those games will be as great.
