*Sits down with his popcorn as the Big 3 give fanboys ammo for another 12 months*

Hey can anyone point me to a decent program so i can work out when this starts my local time? I live on the east coast of Australia and i always stay up to watch these every year. Also some potential links to watch it live for free would be nice.

Well EST is Greenwich Mean Time - 4 hours and PST is GMT - 7 hours because of Daylight Savings Time.

This map may assist you as well.

Note that it doesn't account for Daylight Savings Time.

It's the listed Eastern time +14 hours.

So,
Microsoft - 3:00 AM Tuesday July 15
Nintendo - 1:30 AM Wednesday July 16
Sony - 4:00 AM Wednesday July 16

I hear that G4 will be streaming it on their website. I'm going to try and upload Microsoft's to Youtube as soon as it is over.

"*Sits down with his popcorn as the Big 3 give fanboys ammo for another 12 months*"

Bracing for impact.

(Prepares chips, TV, Podcast, and work out regiment for after E3) Ok I'm set.

OK, so we all know Halo 4 with motion sensing controls is coming?

Glad that's settled.

Actually, my sources told me 3 things.

1.) Microsoft Big Announcement - Metal Gear Solid 4 is coming to the 360.

2.) Sony Big Announcement - The PSP can be used as a controller for every game.

3.) Nintendo Big Announcement - BioShock 2 is exclusive on the DS.

Watch and be amazed. I'm correct 97% of the tim.

So i guess that 3% that you are wrong covers the fact you mispelt 'time'?

Oh yeah, snap! You nailed him on that typo!! :P

Those predictions are solid!!

Damn, it's gonna be hard for me to catch Nintendo's and Sony's conferences on Tuesday.

Can we post in those threads early? 'cause I jsut tried and I'm not sure if it's Joystiq's retarded comments system as of late or if posting is disabled.
...either way, you might want to disable comments in the keynote threads for when they start, lest they break out into flame wars or something.

EEEEE! But it's like Christmas Eve for nerds, though! I can't wait, even though I know I'll be disappointed!

So MS keynote...12pm central time? Just when I take my hour lunch, awwwwwwwweeeeeee yeahhhhhh!

Think they are gonna announce the deal with Netflix streaming on Live?

E3 yeah buddy ...

Glad I'm in the office alone tomorrow, I'll be able to keep up with the MS one as it happens.

Please give us a decent dashboard update, for the love of god.

XMB-esque dashboard update in the fall, CONFIRMED!

Daaaamn I start work at 10:00AM PST tomorrow. Oh well.

I'll be taking notes in Differential Equations...:(

God Damn Mathematics...

Could yous Joystiq peeps hook us up with links to live streams of the press conferences?

Or will we have to search around ourselves? :O

G4's got them for you right here, and not just the big three.
http://e3.g4tv.com/e32008/pressconferences/index.html

G4 sucks. I missed like half of Microsoft's last year.

I think I'm going to go with GameTrailers or 1UP this year for MS and Sony, unless Kotaku is steaming them again. GoNintendo is streaming the Nintendo conference.

G4 says they don't have commercials during the press conferences this year.

If they are lieing and I miss an announcement for the US localization of Captain Rainbow at the Nintendo Press Conference...I'm gonna be so pissed!!/sarcasm

Please Nintendo give me some GOOD news!!!! All I have heard so far is some MM9 Arcade version and Animal Crossing mmo version. I mean seriously if you don't get your act together Wii will soon be the new GameCube gaming wise. Please don't let that happen, I want more games for my console!!

Hate to break it to you, but Animal Crossing is not an MMO. Sorry. You can always look forward to some shiny white peripheral though. My bet is that its gonna be Wii See. They're glasses that you put on your head with motion sensors in an attempt to make you move even more parts of your body while gaming.
Note: Wii See does not actually exist (yet).

Who will be live blogging each one?

A beautiful ground. Love it so much. I am a single girl from Blackcentury.com which is a servious dating site for blacks and whites.

Does the on air pic next to the MS Keynote on the G4 website mean that they are going to televise the keynote on G4TV? I'm off today, so I may be able to sit down and watch that...

yes, that's exactly what it means. Sweetness. Hopefully it'll be in HD too. 1-3 no G4TV :)

oops...should be 1-3 ON G4TV

Prediction:
- Nintendo will show some casual stuff, posters will proclaim Nintendo is killing gaming and predict doom, Nintendo will continue to rake in the profits.
- Sony will present more pipe-dreams and bullshots, even though most of last year's announcements still haven't been released.
- Microsoft will show some lame attempt to attract casual gamers to their console which won't work, and go right back to Halo, Halo, Halo.

Prediction:

Evan will make a lame ass comment.

.....

Man I'm good!

At least we have Evan here to hate on all the console companies today.

Damn, I get G4 mixed up with SpikeTV which GametrailersTV comes on in HD. Boo. Oh well, I'll still watch it.

For all the people wondering, G4 says it isn't having commercials during the press conferences, so if you watch, you'll get the whole thing.

I have to greatly restructure my work schedule on Tuesday (my job at the Library is very flexible with hours, while KFC stays adamant, so i'll go to the library early in the morning instead), but i'm totally clear today

Promises to be a more fulfilling year for everyone, i think. Sony impressed the most last year, but that was because Remote Play + LBP + PSN news, as inconsequential as those things are defeats "Wii Fit + 15 seconds of Mario Kart" and "everything you already knew about Microsoft's plan, but here's Moore on Rock Band"

This year, however, promises to be more epic
