Missing out on E3? So am I until tomorrow, but that's okay -- with broadband, video, and downloadable demos, you can catch most the action from your home.

For Xbox 360 stuff, make sure you check out Live (if you own the console). There are playable demos worth downloading of Moto GP, Lost Planet, and Test Drive Unlimited to name a few. There are high resolution videos of Tony Hawk (which looks incredible), Forza, and Gears of War. The servers are clearly stressing right now but after a few tries you can probably complete any downloads. has plenty of this content if you don't have the console to download it. <a href=http://xbox360.ign.com/>IGN is also a decent resource if you can't find the info you need elsewhere.

<a href=http://e3.nintendo.com/>Nintendo's official E3 site</a> has videos and information on most its titles. There are also on YouTube (examples: <a href=http://www.youtube.com/results?search=wii&search_type=search_videos&searc h=Search>Nintendo Wii videos, ) and <a href=http://video.google.com>Google Videos.

On Nintendo's e3 site there is a video that is completely stupid. Showing people using the controller and acting totally moronic. At one point it shows a guy fishing in zelda and PRETENDING there is some sort of tension happening. Come on nintendo!! I'm not a retard.

At first I thought the controller looked neat, But after watching it in action it looks annoying and limiting more than anything.

Watching people use to play the tennis game at E3, it didn't look fun at all. Just alot of waving your arms around. May as well play the real thing at that point.

I've gone from optimistic about Nintendo to almost entirely uninterested. If I ever get my hands on this thing, I'm not very confident I'll like it.
