I really hope that Ubisoft has learned how to do these E3 press conferences. They make great games but seem to go out of their way to bore everyone to death.

Konami is the best at giving press conferences...

Sounds like no G4 this year at E3. Sony is only streaming its conference online. No word from Nintendo or any other company (Ubi and EA). Microsoft is live on Spike and streamed over XBox Live.

MS showed some GOW game last year. Hope there's more on it this year.

Also some Marvel Online would be nice.

Spike TV will be handling the television coverage this year. Both Nintendo and Microsoft are confirmed to be televised. I image they will do the same for Ubisoft and the rest.

The Spike TV schedule looks like this...
Monday, June 4 (Noon-5:30pm ET/ 9:00am-2:30pm PT)
Tuesday, June 5 (Noon-5:00pm ET/ 9:00am-2:00pm PT)

G4 will show the Sony conference.

Looking forward to details about Halo 4. Maybe they'll announce the next xBox console? I'm going with no, but a guy can only hope, right.

Rumors say Sony may introduce cloud gaming to the Playstation brand at E3. Possibly partnering up with a "leading cloud gaming service. " http://www.examiner.com/article/play...ice-at-e3-2012

Sony's rumoured cloud gaming deal with Gaikai is to allow current-generation hardware to play PlayStation 2 and PSone games via a streaming solution, GamesIndustry International understands.

According to sources, the service will offer first-party games and be open to third-party publishers to sell back catalogue to players. The partnership is likely to be announced at E3 next week as part of Sony's conference on Monday.

It's not yet clear which Sony devices beyond the PlayStation 3 would get a Gaikai-supported game streaming service, but it could extend to Sony branded TVs and tablets.

Rumor: Microsoft set to reveal 'Xbox Smart Glass' tablet application at this years E3

The last couple of weeks leading up to E3 have been good for anyone that loves insider information. Today’s leak is the largest one yet, and comes from Microsoft. The people behind "Xbox" and "Xbox Live" will be revealing the Xbox Smart Glass tablet behind closed doors to a select group of people. In the official “Microsoft Confidential” presentation, they specifically noted this:

Xbox Smart Glass is a companion application for Xbox LIVE that will allow users to control their Xbox (e.g., transport controls, content discovery and search). The Xbox Smart Glass companion application will be optimized for Windows Tablets and Phones and also made available to iOS/Android Tablets and Phones.
Activities will be made available within the Xbox Smart Glass companion application. Activities will be tied to existing and new applications on Xbox (e.g., Zune Music will have an activity). We will demo Xbox Smart Glass experiences for nearly all of our major brand partners at E3 (existing plus new partners).
The Xbox Smart Glass companion application will have the ability to play video on Tablets/Phones and send the videos to Xbox to play on the TV.
Additionally, we will demo Xbox Smart Glass capabilities (see slide 12) but at no time will we show any video content playing on a Tablet/Phone device.

That makes sense with Microsoft trying to tie in multiple parts of the company with their new products.
