E3 2009 and Losing my Wallet

Got a couple of things to cover here. First is E3 2009.

Microsoft: As usual, Microsoft blew me away with their presentation. The stage looked amazing, they had celebrities, and best of all, they didn't spend a huge amount of time talking about numbers.All the games looked great and the finale, Project Natal, amazed me. Whether Natal/Milo work that well now is not a huge concern to me. I just think that it's great that companies are looking into this technology and now have dev kits to play around with it. Good job Microsoft!

Nintendo: This conference was not as bad as last year, but it was close.The audience was quiet (for whatever reason), the stage didn't pack a punch, and the overall presentation was very dull. This made for a very boring press conference that could have been more exciting because they had a pretty good line up of games.
I am a little worried about Mario Galaxy 2 because it DID look just like the first one, but hopefully there is more to it than just a Galaxy add on.
I hate to jump on the band wagon and say this, but I do think Nintendo is alienating their fanbase. They have focused too much on the casual audience when they should have focused on their Hardcore fanbase and Casual players equally. Nintendo, if you were a person I would slap you to try and knock some sense into you. I miss the old Nintendo!

Sony: Sony's press conference was pretty good. Stage was well set up, the presentation was alright, and there were some great games that were shown. What was a little frustrating is the fact that the PSP Go had already been leaked, so that wasn't a shock. But Final Fantasy XIV was a nice surprise, even though it isa MMO (I might play it) and the motion sensing technology looked really good, although not as good as Natal. But overall, good job Sony!

IN OTHER NEWS...
Lost my wallet in Burger King yesterday, but didn't realise it till today. Went there to eat with Michael (hadn't seen him in a week! :( lol) and it must have fallen out of my purse. Luckely an elderly ladyturned it in. That's a really bad neighborhood and that wallet had my Social Security card, Drivers license, debit card, and insurance cards in it. Today has been a NIGHTMARE. But at least Michael went back and found it today. :)

Hope everyone enjoyed E3 and has a great weekend!
