630 - And its done.

627 - OH SHIT IM JUST SITTING HERE BUT I THINK IVE JUST BEEN SERVED!!

627 - This place just ERUPTED into Michael Jackson FEVER!

624 - ManiaPlanet. A terrible name for something that doesn't seem necessary at all.

622 - Rayman Origins announced.  I know nothing of this project or of Rayman but some people seem to be excited. Am I missing out?

618 - Project DUST is giving me a big Black & White feel. Peter is gonna be pissed.

616 - CEO of Ubisoft is gonna make me FEEL THE GAME!

615 - The guy from Driver 1 is a ghost that can now shift between vehicles at will.  What?

609 - Here comes Driver? Yes.

607 - Some of the GR stuff reminds me of Battlefield 2043(?).  I'm wondering what MP is going to be like?

603 - GR game play. You can see that its an early build but I really like where this is going.

600 - Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. Now we're talking.

558 - Raving Rabbids.  November 9th.  ok.

555 - This black chick can KICK SOME ASS!!

552 - Only one Asian so far in this event.  MS is certainly winning this E3 in the Asians on display contest.

550 - "Your Shape: Fitness Evolved" being shown. Second time seeing it today. First time was at the MS Press Conference.  I was barely impressed by this game if only because I know there is a market for this dribble.

550 - I should have brought my Flask.

548 - And here come the Kinect games.

546 - Everyone is talking about "the mind and the body connecting to be the controller."  Take that shit to Burning Man you fucking hippies!

545 - More bullshit about motion control.  Most of the really new stuff we've seen at E3 this year revolves around either motion control or weird peripherals.  It gets depressing when I think about it. Im not going to think about it.

544 - Sorry "Innergy" Ill take a few shots of Whisky if I want to relax before bed.  It has more style and did wonders for Bukowski.

543 - This are going downhill fast. "Innergy" , a relaxing game which uses some vitality sensor and breathing games to relax the...Player?  Some doughy man with badly dyed red hair is showing it off. I kind of want to kill myself at this moment,

539 - Peripheral gaming just got more stupid.  I had no idea that the possibility was out there. But it is.

536 - uhm. Ubisoft is putting out a Lasertag game? What is this 1984? Its called "Battle Tag"  this is...uhm...a bit awful.

532 - Shaun White looks like Dave Mustane. I wonder if he's sore about Metallica as well.

530 - The world transforms as you are skateboarding. Interesting idea.  The world also starts in black and white and turns color as you do tricks.  Like The Saboteur but with Skateboards instead of Nazi's.

526 - Shaun White's pants are also VERY tight. I think he has Camel Taint.

525 - Shaun White is out talking about "Shaun White Skateboarding" The entire thing seems fairly uncomfortable.  You can tell that White really wants this to be over, and maybe can't stand even talking about this.

519 - Ezio has some nice new moves, however I'm still not happy that we're not in modern times yet.

515 - Finally Game play. Ezio's village is being attacked by the Templars.  Much more horse action / usage this time around.  Graphics also seem more crisp.

512 - AC: Brotherhood release November 12th 2010

511 - AC cinematic. Very similar to what we have been seeing.  Pretty as per usual.  Ezio apparently needs no stealth and is kicking ass in a courtyard with 6 other assinssns

510 - Assassins Creed already. I can see Nicks boner from here.

507 - The theme of Ubisoft's conference is "Games you can feel."  In other news its hot as fuck in here.

505 - The fact that this is beginning with a Kinetic mini-game, essentially, is either a very good or very bad sign. Very good if they are just getting it out of the way, bad if this is the theme of the conference. The game is called "Children of Eden"  Its being demod by MIZUGUCHI.  That makes sense. Definitely has a Luminez feel.

502 - After networking issues it begins. Show starts off with a Kinetic mini game which is a remake of Tempest.  1 to 1 is definitely a little off.

    What I have always liked about Ubisoft is that they always have someone do a good monologue at the start. (Some may disagree) But last year I thought their event was boring...I hope it's different this year. Seems like it is.

    I think I saw you guys putting your arms up in the middle row of the middle section. This conference derailed faster than Microsoft's. Another vitality sensor??? *sigh* Why is there so much focus on this peripheral crap. If they don't show I Am Alive I'm going to rage!

    I can see it perfectly. The massive amounts of eyerolling, ear gouging, and people committing hara kiri every time one of these people utters a word that isn't "This press event is over."

    This press conference started off shaky, started to get better, and then a instant train crash happened without any warning.

    I'm really glad you guys at 4PP can attend E3, its so much better being able to read about something right as it happens and to hear opinions that aren't influenced greatly by game Publishers, you guys tell it how it is.

    This press conference was a lot like The Shawshank Redemption. The Assassin's Creed part was like meeting Morgan Freeman and getting those beers. The rest was the getting beaten up by the Sisters, Brooks hanging himself, and crawling through the sewers. Then they took us to Zihuatanejo with Ghost Recon, Rayman Origins, and Mania Planet.

    I miss Beyond Good and Evil 2.

    Uhh.. was them breaking out into dance over "Beat It" like.. was that for a game, or just the hell of it?

    At least Joel McHale was around, for whatever reason. Wasn't he at Ubi's last year? Kind of odd.. though I will admit it's good to at least have a main showmain up on stage.

    Entertaining, but terrible. I mean come on Ubisoft Battle Tag and Inergy, I think even those casual gamers would think twice. Ubisoft had so much IP too show and they waste it on a mess of casual games.
