E3 2006
 
For all talk and goodness of E3 2006...

the biggest rumor i have heard so far is that The new ZELDA game will be on the WII not the gamecube and will be one of the launch titles.

This is through TIMES review of the WII where it mentioned slashing a sword in Zelda Twilight princess with the controller... we can dare to dream =D

Don't forget the renaming of Nintendo Wii. Come on the name Wii is just too stupid to leave, they just did this to get everyone thinking about Nintendo at E3.

Also AutoDesk Maya is due to debut.

Wii = Revolution

Not in name, but still ;)

I can't wait, looks like Zelda has been made Wii exclusive with improved graphics and use of the Wii controller (dubbed the Wiimote :P )

This looks incredibly fun.

Everyone wants Duck Hunt.

If the Revolution (I refuse to call it Wii) is at the $200 price point, and they have games like these, they're going to win the console gaming market.

I don't know, most people don't realize it but that Cell processor in the PS3 is absolute ownage, 7 very fast cores!!! When game designers can finally harness its power, the games on the PS3 will be awe-inspiring. (Assuming that Sony doesn't end up having huger delays or hardware problems)

Just as the PS2 was supposed to rival Pixar graphics? From what I hear the cell is fast, but hardly a powerhouse.

Zelda: Twilight Princess = Awsome
Super Mario Galaxy = Awsome
Metroid Prime 3 = Awsome
Red Steel = Even better now there is sword fighting

Project HA.M.M.E.R. Looks really awsome. Move with the Nunchuk controller and swing with the Wiimote... *imagines swinging violently across the screen*

Wii Sports just looks awsome. Swing a baseball bat or a tennis racket with the swing of the Wiimote.

Already, I can't wait for this :D

Oh yeah. Tons of new info on the Wii's official site

It could be the fastest prettiest thing in the world, but for $500, I'm not gonna buy it. Especially if I can get the same entertainment value out of a $200 machine.

And... especially when you add maybe a few extra more $$$ to the PS3 price, you can get a pretty decent power PC. ;)

Anybody know exactly how many more 'i's I can add to the 'Wii' name because it looks like so much fun?

yay! This is going to be fun. I will start saving up :D

I have to disagree with you there, and yes, in some games, they do harness pixar-type graphics, and the ps3 could be ranked among one of the top 10 fastest computers in the world, so I consider it a powerhouse. I can go into an hour discussion about it (since I am a Sony fanboy and Beta Tester) but I won't. I am disappointed about no dual HDMI. Sorry if I am criticizing everyone but I like strongly expressing my opinions and Knowledge. On the topic of the Wii, I got to feel and try it. It's great, but I had a hard time getting the right grip on the remote part of the 2 part controller. As for xbox 360, they should be shipped out with a hd-dvd built in rather than as an add-on, as I've only bought 3 major peripherals (Hard Drive (PS2), mic, and steering wheel) and and I wouldn't buy an add-on like that just for movies unless all movies were only put out on HD-DVD.

Show me a game, with Pixar like graphics.

Sony has really shot them selves in the foot.
$500 or $600 a ps3? HA! no way I'm paying that
GTA 4 coming out for both 360 and ps3 on the same day.

WII and 360 are going to rule the market.
