I hear on good authority that it will be an NGP exclusive, downloadable only, with the strictest DRM available. To cater to an American audience it will explore themes of faith and marriage and all the main characters will wear neckties.
Holy fuck, man! Talk about my biggest nightmare. I would absolutely flip my shit if that were to happen.

Can't say I'm interested in seeing a single thing at E3 this year.

I'm really excited for PSO2 as well, but, what are the expected platforms? Console only? Hopefully it comes to Mac OS.

My hope is that Bungie reboots the Marathon series, and releases it exclusively to PC.

PSO2 is currently planned for release on Windows PC only. Hopefully it stays this way too. If it comes out for consoles also, there is a chance it could reduce the quality of the PC game. I am a console gamer but for this kind of game, the PC really is the best platform and makes the most sense.

Also, everyone will carry miniguns and have beards. The game will require you to use the touch screen as a fingerprint scanner to ensure that you were the original buyer, and you will always have to be online, even when not playing the game, or else the game's DRM will send a rootkit to your PC [in traditional Sony fashion]. And there will be a minigame using the touch panel where you put peanut butter on grape pop-tarts.

Seriously? Not even the potential hardware announcements? Not one of them excite you? You're not at all interested in the next Nintendo console, next Microsoft console, or the next PSP handheld?

Are you a still holding out for Dreamcast 2? :wink:

And at E3 2012 when Sega announces they're discontinuing said failed console, tears will be cried, blame will be thrown at the consoles that actually succeeded, the morons at Sega actually responsible for the failure of an otherwise fine system will be absolved of any wrongdoing, and everybody acts shocked when deep down inside they know they should have seen it coming.

Wait a minute, all this sounds familiar. Hmmm.....
Beware the wombats...

I'm so excited for Nintendo's new console! I like the Wii don't get me wrong, but I'm ready for something new from the big N.
