So actually I think it starts on Wednesday, but man the announcements are already flying around. Of course the big news is that Sony has cut the price of the PS3 by $100 effective immediately. That was followed by the revelation that the $599 price tag will now be the home to a 80GB HDD PS3 coming out in August. Not only will it sport a beefier hard drive, but also a copy of the other "must have" title for the PS3, Motorstorm. Quite frankly though I think pricing a PS3 at $599 is still a stupid idea, regardless of a thrown in game and 20GB bigger hard drive.
Square Enix announced a bunch of release dates for their bevy of hand held titles due out soon.
The biggest rumor is that Microsoft will announce a price cut on the 360 making the Elite $399, the premium $349, and the core $249. That would be a nice move on Microsoft's part in the wake of Sony's announcement.
I am going to try my best to blog E3 fast and furiously, I even have tentative plans to live blog the press conferences. Microsoft's is tomorrow night and then on Wed. is Sony and Nintendo's. Those are just my plans for right now I can't make any promises. It would be cool if I could though.
I should have some more stuff for you later.
