E3 2007-Predictions?

E3 2007 kicks off in 7 hours with Microsofts press conference at 4:30 am followed by Nintendos at 5 pm and finally sonys at 7:30 pm.

I was wondering what your predictions are?

For me its probably:
Microsoft:
I think they will announce a wii type remote, they have always commented on how much they like it and have been rumoured to have one in development.

Nintendo:
I think they will announce at least 1 really big game, new wii channels and reveal more information about games like super smash bros. We havent heard anything about the ds in awhile so I think maybe a camera? or some sort of handwriting recognition software to produce documents as several months ago they signed a deal with a company that does handwriting recognition to PDA's.

Sony:
Im abit unsure about sony. Possibly a download service for videos and music like the 360 has?. To be honest I dont really have a clue what they are planning.

What do you think will happen?

Microsoft : Europe Elite Details, Price and Launch dates. Core and Premium price cut announced, another update?

Nintendo : More channels and I have a feeling Dr Kwashimia will return.....along with Wii Sports 2 or something......

Sony : 80GB Playstation 3 launch and pricing european details, more HOME, even more LittleBigPlanet , pricecut of 60GB PS3.

Nintendo and Microsoft are difficult
1. The ones ive bolded are never gonna happen nintendo are idiots.
2. Microsoft releasing a motion sencer. (sp?)
so thats all the games need re-editing all the xbox360 inside stuff edited

The world isnt as simple as that y'kno.

The SIXAXIS has rumble features :l It was in an update a few weeks ago for PS2 games. I just don't think they've bothered to put it into any PS3 games...yet

There are guesses...

Microsoft:
- motion controller
- price drop
- scrapping Core configuration, introducing Elite in all territories
- VERY POSSIBLY Metal Gear going multiplatform... although Konami may wait to see what effect the PS3 price drop has first
Sony:
- 80GB details for all territories
- price drop details for all territories
- more console colours
- PSP Lite
- rumble in control pads
Nintendo:
- more console colours
- more first party titles
- online gaming details
PS. A camera for the DS was already announced last week.

I know it does screw over early adopters a bit, but they can't go on at the current price. This week they dropped the price by $100 in the US and announced the 80GB version to be coming out in August (I think it's August :P) bundled with Motorstorm at the previous price.

PS. You probably already knew this.

Nintendo:
Perhaps Goldeneye on VC, new Wii Colours, a keyboard, brand new games, new info on SSBB and SMG. Maybe they'll announce a Mario Kart game for Wii.

If they Did put motion sense in it.

they would have to take every single xbox 360 back put stuff inside so it knows what its doing :P

Just like the wii

it has special stuff inside SO it works.
