Just random notes from Jimmy TehFreak while watching the Electronic Arts E3 press conference - this will be updated into Monday Afternoon. Maybe a video update later - who knows.
Times are in Mountain time (2 hours before eastern) If the text goes wonky- it means I felt better just copying from my own twitter (@JimmyTehFreak) rather than retype the whole message.
(2:11)-Anyone noticing a theme about gore being a selling point? I came in halfway into this one, that mightve been Dead Space 3.. that will be a fun one for the xbox to run.. ridiculous install sizes to be had.
(2:13)-They really want Madden to win sports title of the year just once dont they - I do like what they're pushing in regards to actual gravity and affected outcomes based on body sizes, pre-existing injuries, which limbs are.. wait a second.. isn't this exactly what they promised last year?
(2:15) - Ray Lewis saving the Madden announcement. Who knew a dude talking about taking bites could make this conference not completely bite?

(2:18) - When was the last time someone announced a Facebook game at E3? Sim City Social..
Stay tuned and keep refreshing
(2:21) - Next Gen Sim City game looks nice - but do me a favor - get MECC to make a next gen dinopark tycoon and I'll invest every dollar in it.
(2:24) - Whenever I hear that Battlefield 3 theme I remember that johnnyethco vid where he remixed his own farts.
UPDATE - I was right, I was like "didnt Battlefield 3 come out and get the axe last year?" - well the portable game was axed. They're making the FPS more of an MMO now by offering a premium mode. Smart. Very smart actually.
(2:32) - wasted 5 minutes telling us that they're updaing Star Wars: The Old Republic. Sorry, don't care. You guys might like it but I don't care.
(2:35) - Hey guys, EA is putting out.. gasp.. a Military First Person Shooter.. that's 2 out of 3 trailers by the way. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty.. the engine is wicked.. but give us some variety in the games. I think this is Medal of Honor Warfighter, don't hold me to that.
(2:36) - Just heard trashtalk in the MoH trailer, a solider yelled "GET SOME!" - now if a soldier yells "I TEABAG YOUR FACE!" this can be EA's Call of Duty.
(2:39) - The Medal of Honor will have 10team battle modes.. and Australia.. as well as Canada will have military teams. "Teabag, ya hoser.. tell me how my nuts taste, eh"
(2:44) - Nothing to report here.. social interactivity during sports games.. zZz..
UPDATE - this EA Sports segment is so boring that I'm having more fun chatting with the blogger at Yes I Am A Geek about better military First Person Shooters than CoD, BF3 and MoH.
(2:48) - They're still talking about FIFA 13.. come on we alrdy got 10 minutes of this during the microsoft conference. No talk of MLB, or NHL.. nothing from EA's studios..
(2:50) - Dana White just showed up and I'm already pissed at the goofball. EA cancelled their multiplayer 2 months ago to EA MMA.. now EA has signed a multiyear deal with UFC. Sucks for THQ to lose that deal.
(2:54) - EA announces Need for Speed: Most Wanted.. a followup on Most Wanted and Most wanted 2.. I see they went with the Rambo and Rocky schools of series numbering..
(2:57) - Gameplay footage of the new Most Wanted game.. everything.. form the city to the car to the audio of the engine.. this is a ripoff of a PSN title Anarchy: Rush Hour.. not cool guys.. This game doesn't LOOK fun.. it doesn't look bad.. it just looks.. serious. Needs music maybe?
(3:00) - Crysis 3.. should be hilarious if this goes on the 360.. the original Crysis kicked computer specs asses.. if this is less than 22gb install I'll be shocked.
Well that was an underwhelming conference.. seriously.. that was terrible. Not impressed by EA at all, there wasn't one thing of interest to me. They could have had a sequel to plants vs zombies and I would have been happy. Screw that.
Tune in later tonight (7pm Mountain, 9 Eastern) where I come back and give the cliffnotes for the Sony Press Conference.
The big things I'm expecting from sony?
-Playstation Vita games
-Playstation Plus revamp
-Pricedrop, likely to $249 or $269 to account for last years financial losses.
