Sounds like a real crazy event last night.
Okay, Microsoft press conference finished and main post updated.
Still no price for Kinect (are they worried?)
No launch date for EU new Xbox
Star Wars game looked nice but on rails.
Everyone in the audience got a new Xbox. Jammie so and so's!

No EU date for Kinect though.

EA conference done and dusted and all the relevant info is in the main post.
And Ubisoft have had their conference and I'm out for the night. 5pm for Nintendo.
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit done by the Burnout guys has certainly caught my attention much more than anything else so far.
Overall a great conference from Nintendo. It would have been uterly mind blowing had it had one other game in. I have to admit I am very disappointed Pikmin 3 weren't there. We know it's being made, we know it's well underway, it just seems odd that it hasn't been shown at all :( Oh well there's still hope with the roundtable later tonight.
Mario Kart 3DS ain't on the list yet :P
Okay, Nintendo and Sony press conferences both done. I'll try to add anything else I deem relevant or interesting as the show goes on.
