[Elisha Adeagbo @ Jul 14th 2008 12:21AM]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!

[Stewsters23 @ Jul 14th 2008 12:41AM]

YESSSS!!!!! i love E3. they always come out with new stuff

[Sean @ Jul 14th 2008 12:45AM]

WOOHOO!
Keynotes I can actually watch! LIVE!

That's right, we don't have to rely completely on text-based updates.


....yes, the people who run these keynotes don't kick people out for.........................GASP, BROADCASTING AUDIO AND VIDEO!!!!!

Scary thoughts.


All bashing aside, I'm pretty excited. I hope we see some hints of the next MS console (just a tiny teaser, it's still two years away), and I hope for some sweet game announcements.

[waiownsyou @ Jul 14th 2008 12:47AM]

Good job asking Engadget about Apple Keynote coverages.

[Jonathan-DBOSS @ Jul 14th 2008 12:49AM]

I can't wait, I can't wait!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!

[clearance @ Jul 14th 2008 12:50AM]

[Alex @ Jul 14th 2008 1:04AM]

Would you please shut up about it already?

I ordered mine today, it's done with now...LORD.

[clearance @ Jul 14th 2008 1:09AM]

ever heard of sarcasm.

[quiksilv3r @ Jul 14th 2008 1:15AM]

How can you order an E3?

[dhytspam @ Jul 14th 2008 5:03AM]

quik made me lol

[Alex @ Jul 14th 2008 1:06AM]

I wonder what MS will be doing...

The price dropped on the 360. So that means a liquidation of stock for the bigger hard drives...

What about new games?

Hmmm...

[AJ in the East Bay @ Jul 14th 2008 1:09AM]

It's a safe bet they'll announce new games at E3 among other things...

[waiownsyou @ Jul 14th 2008 1:28AM]

Thanks AJ. I was worried I would read Engadget comments and not see something extremely obvious.

Thanks again.

[AJ in the East Bay @ Jul 14th 2008 1:08AM]

I'm ready here. Bring on the hype!!

[Jhongerkong @ Jul 14th 2008 1:11AM]

RRRIIIIIIIIIDDDDGGGGGEEEEEEE RRRRRAAACCCCCCCEEEEERRRRRRRR

[Inugami @ Jul 14th 2008 1:36AM]

PRESS PASS FTW!!![e-mail]

[Inugami @ Jul 14th 2008 1:38AM]

OMG OMG!!! AND IF YOU SWAP THE 3 AND THE G ITS 3G!!!!!! Coincidence? I think not!

[Erik @ Jul 14th 2008 1:55AM]

If you swap the E with a G and the 3 with an 8, you get G8, which means it's all a secret government conspiracy!

[Patriks7 @ Jul 14th 2008 2:19AM]

and imagine if u swap the 3 with two E's, u get EEE!
i bet asus has their hands in this ;o...

[Bryan T @ Jul 14th 2008 2:22AM]

Unfortunately, there just isn't any hype for this once great event.

Here's hoping something spectacular comes out of the event.

[LordFarkward @ Jul 14th 2008 2:32AM]

Er... you're all doing it wrong. You're supposed to swap the E with "STFU", 3 with "and bring me my pizza"...

n00bs

[roach @ Jul 14th 2008 2:39AM]

I work in the game industry, and if there was a time I'm forced to make an iphone game...its time to leave the industry. Long live consoles and PC games!!

[roach @ Jul 14th 2008 2:44AM]

I work in the gaming industry and it ! was forced to work on iphone, then its time to leave the industry. Long live console and PC games!

[Richard @ Jul 14th 2008 2:56AM]

Aah, I can't wait to go to work tomorrow and see the hall all decked out! I love working at the convention center for these shows!

[netgem21 @ Jul 14th 2008 3:33AM]

It says on IGN and Gamespot that the times are Microsoft - 10.30, Nintendo - 9.00 and Sony 11.30

[BobTurbo @ Jul 14th 2008 3:40AM]

Bring on the slim, low powered, SSD-packing, gloss, curve, and chrome-free PS3.

[Paulmichael @ Jul 14th 2008 4:50AM]

Whoa! Did you see that? Here I am, reading this guy's second reply, when all of a sudden there's this ! staring at me in the middle of the sentence. So not quite a double post, but something worse.

[Vash @ Jul 14th 2008 5:06AM]

I think you got your timezones backwards there..

Monday, July 14th
~10:30AM PT / 1:30PM ET

Tuesday, July 15th
~9:00AM PT / 12:00PM ET
~11:30AM PT / 2:30PM ET

Eastern BEFORE Pacific and only 4 hours difference soo.... typo?

[Vash @ Jul 14th 2008 5:08AM]

3* hrs diff, dam num bar at top silly me shoulda used the almighty num pad

[Some Kid @ Jul 14th 2008 7:20AM]

does microsoft relly have a "keynote" over a "powerpoint"?
seems like the wrong thing for them to do (as they make Powerpoint themselves, rather than rival apples competition keynote)
hmmmmmm......

[Rodimus @ Jul 15th 2008 4:39PM]

Is that a serious question? I hope not.

You do know that keynotes are speeches that are given with a common idea usually in conferences. It's not only just a name of an Apple product hence the reason why they named it after what the program does/creates.

WOW!

[Scentedflame @ Jul 14th 2008 10:50AM]

MS should have a strong showing considering how strong their lineup is already.

Fable 2
Gears Of War 2
Halo Wars
Viva Pinata (not for me, but people like it)
Banjo 3
Too Human

All exclusive. I'm probably forgetting another big one or two as well.

Then of course you have the multi-console games such as Fallout 3. It is a good time to own a 360!

[roach @ Jul 14th 2008 12:41PM]

Sorry about the double almost post. Engadget was a bit slow in posting my response. When I didn't see my post, I said screw it...but then I thought, I really meant what I said "once I start creating iPhone games, I will really quit the game industry", so I posted again...and went to sleep.

[Rick @ Jul 14th 2008 7:11PM]

Wow, look at all those people in line for the Microsfot keynote!

[AwlAmericanDawg @ Jul 14th 2008 12:27PM]

Maybe the people are starting to head in ever think of that?

Or maybe there's the people that are "fashionably late"?
