Hello again! Coming to ya from LA/E3 since I got access to one of the laptops they have available.

First basic impressions.

Nintendo - Just not as great of show this year. Their "booth area" didnt impress me much.

Microsoft - Great job so far from the look of it. Only a very few handful of 360 games that didnt impress me much honestly but its only E3.

Sony - Same as above. Great conference but on the floor, its....ok. Not great great but still awesome nonetheless

Overall - I think the press conferences were better then the on the flor stuff. Nintendo should be running Revolution videos back to back and at least have console prototype behind a glass case or something.

But this E3 has still been awesome so far. Got a ton of pics. I also got something EXTRA special that you'll see when I can upload all my images

I dont have many booth babes on dig. camera but I do have some.

Damn my feet hurt from all my walking >_<

Good to hear you're having a good time, Jonbo.

Make sure to give some impressions on games. Okami, some DS software, etc etc. Enjoy yourself, and don't worry about getting pictures of booth babes. We're on the internet, we can search for all the beautiful women we want.

Miss you Jonbo! Bring me back a Zelda DS preview card and I'll give you $20!

Ha! Beat that!

There are zelda DS preview cards for free giving out? I must've missed it unless I'm being lied to

But anywho. I wont have impressions for a ton of games. I have played a fair amount but nothing like Okami. Played some DS games but not many since not all interested me. Hell, Nintendo's booth is like 90% DS, 9.9% Gamecube and that damned Gameboy Micro (frickin small =O )

But anywho. Got to mess around with Zelda for a bit. Mainly messed around with the horse ride battle and just.....awesome stuff. This is gonna turn out very very well from my little time with it.

I got to mess around with Full Auto (from Sega) for the 360 and its pretty good. It feels more like a tech demo since just about anything can be rammed into and hurt/destroyed. But its still an awesome racing game nonetheless. The unwreck "button" is the best thing about it so far from the look of it.

I'll be back home sometime Saturday night then I'll begin sorting out pictures on computer (pushing the 200 mark and still a few hours to go but I already got most of the images I wanted anyways on Day 1 and 2

).

Thanks for the good lucks, etc... See you all again back on Saturday night or sometime on Sunday before I go back to work >_<

Well, I'm home now but got about 180 pictures to sort out. So maybe in a day or 2 I'll post some up. Also gonna try and get a few of the swag I have if you guys want some pictures of it.

Also, anyone recommend a decent reliable site (maybe free, maybe not. It depends right now) to host alot of images (granted, I will be resizing them but still gonna be alot of people viewing them).

+rep for a good site recommendation
