Being that you actually posted this message while the actual conference was going on, how could you expect anything to be up and ready to watch?

Once again, it hadn't been hours at the time of this post. The Nintendo and Sony Conference were shown over a span of 4 and a half hours. It ended at 4:30 pm Eastern Time and it was all shown at 1 time. 2 separate conferences, shown back to back of one another as 1 big event.

We are impatient.....aren't weee.....

That was when I was looking for a live feed to just see what was going on...

With no info about such things going around how could I know that a conference that in total lasts 1 hour and 20 min (aprox) would be spread across 4 hours and 3o min?

I assumed since you were watching some of it on Television, your TV Guide clearly showed how it was all set up as did mine. It showed when it started and ended and the information explained the 2 conferences that it ecompassed.

No Big Deal now really.

Notice my Location. Not an american, so no TV guide or any TV coverage of it. All I had to go by was what I got from G4, gamespot, gametrailers etc etc. Plus the 8 or 9 hour difference kinda mess things up now and then.

new halo 3 trailer ftw!!!!😄

Okay, there is quite a few games missing here....

Alan Wake, Spore, Indiana Jones from last year....where are they?

I thought G4 got an exclusive look at Spore this year.

And wasn't it majorly delayed anyway? Or worse, "indefinitely on hold"?

yeah they got an exclusive look at it

it looked.....interesting i guess

Spore won't be at E3 this year.

There's nothing new to show so they didn't feel the need to bring their people down there and take away from their work on the game so they decided to keep all of their people working on the game.

I assume they didnt show the game because it was just be a kick in the nuts for fans of Will Wright's games because they just delayed it awhile back.

It's delayed, and not put on hold. The game is coming out.

Well I would rather be kept in the dark and get a great game then bugging the makers with demands of interviews and info and ending up with delays and rushed games.

uhhh....

i saw a 3 minute clip of it on G4 and somebody that worked on the game was talking about it

They dont bug the actual programmers, artists and such, they bug the communications people and press agents.

The programmers are still working on the game if they have it at E3. It's the support staff like marketers, press agents and communication people who are at E3, and maybe Will Wright.

Here is a picture from today at E3 2007.

Well it will affect the programmers. "We need this and that ready for E3!!!!!" *slashes whip* "Quickly now, big interview in a week" *slashes whip* etc

Exactly, which is why they decided to keep all their guys at work on the game and not disrupt the process and slow themselves down.

I think this is the worst E3 so far, I think there are too many 07 games shown off and not enough 08-09 games, which is why I usually watch it. There were a few great surprises, but it was way less than normal. Also, the G4 coverage sucks. G4 has spent the past two days talking about the same games over and over and over again while smaller games that need the attention, like Nights, are being completely ignored. After looking at the list of games at E3 at IGN, what G4 had dished out so far is miniscule by comparison and there is no way they can catch up. I think Kojima said it best, "I hope that my E3 will return next year."
