Halo 3 Teaser, nothing playable, no real footage
HD-DVD
Definite price drop...
and some announcement regarding Xbox live...

Personally I think Nintendo and Sony are REALLY neck and neck right now, Sony's looking good but the price is a killer. Nintendo IF the gameplay is good (which has yet to be seen) has the whole package: decent graphics (not top of line up good), a good price (I'll lay a large sum of money that Nintendo is going to hit the $249 price point, half the cost of the 360 and PS3) , and an innovative control scheme (anyone remember our reactions when the N64's controller came out?)

If I had to rank the three:

1. Nintendo (by the slightest of margins)
2. Sony
3. Microsoft (I just cannot see any groundbreaking announcements coming from their amp today)


So there's my $0.02 folks...]]>May 9th 2006 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/09/engadget-and-joystiqs-live-coverage-of-microsofts-xbox-360-e3-ev/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/09/engadget-and-joystiqs-live-coverage-of-microsofts-xbox-360-e3-ev/May 9th 2006 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/09/engadget-and-joystiqs-live-coverage-of-microsofts-xbox-360-e3-ev/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/09/engadget-and-joystiqs-live-coverage-of-microsofts-xbox-360-e3-ev/

I really liked Sony's presentation, but we'll see how the launch turns out. I love the Dual Shock 2, so seeing it basically re-created with the motion-sensing is just fine with me.

How would a $249 price point for the Wii account for only half the cost of a 360?

I just want cool consoles, and each of these consoles provides different games and different styles - I'll buy all three if I have to!

You don't need specs. They just showed off a fantastic idea and some even more fantastic gameplay. It is coming in q4 this year. What else do you need to know? Sony has pushed back how many times?

the 360 is ok.
