Don't forget about Grand Theft Auto IV. Blah.

The Halo 3 trailer is most excellent. Timo, Arm and I had a nice Skype conversation about how it might tie into the story.

On another E3 note, I thought the Nintendo press conference was pretty interesting.

Yes, forgot about GTA 4, although I'm not much of a fan of the series.

I'm hyped about the numbers, 160 games by this holiday.

Forza 2.

One point of presence - Live becoming part of Windows & Mobile for a single friends list, marketplace, messaging system.

Cross-Platform games.

And that Halo 3 trailer - in HD - OMFG.

Oh, and the camera, poker, and Uno.

Jeez, so much stuff in that press conference.

It's going to be a very good year.

And to think, I'm not even a "gamer"...but I think it's a lineup that casual folks can get into (like myself).

Yeah, unless GTA4 has some kind of super cool multiplayer, I'll be passing. I thought GTA3 & Vice City were excellent because they still had that comic book feel to them. But San Andreas was disturbing and offensive to the point where I couldn't play it. I still think GTA3 is one of the funnest games to drive a vehicle in ever. Feels like Matchbox come to life.

Glad to see others share my excitement. Armleg was about to soil himself he was so excited about the H3 trailer, which as Shark noted looked really good in HD. The graphics engine rendering out the dust devils and the weeds moving was very nice.

Timo is correct. I'm am still shaking. After a day and a half on the ocean I'm glad to be back and will get caught up tomorrow on all the E3 excitement. I left after watching the H3 trailer and dropping a deuce on myself. Oh my goodness it is going to be fun.
