Saw this on Digg:

"I am going to toss out a theory on this, it's more than just a new Halo game...it's also about the motion controller.

EGM magazine said it over a year ago; Bungie is working on a new Halo game that will be bundled with a motion controller, see the EGM magazine clip for yourself here: http://arcade-junkies.com/2008/07/e3-2008-set-to-bring-wii-like-gaming-to-next-gen-consoles/

Nintendo revealed their Wiimote 1:1 add-on before Microsoft's press conference. Why? Because their intel told them that Microsoft was releasing one with true 1:1 control. Nintendo eludes to the fact that they knew others would follow what they're doing several times during their press conference, saying that they can't just sit still on their success.

Microsoft also suspected that Sony was revealing a motion controller, so they thought 'let's see what Sony reveals first, and we'll reveal ours after them on Wednesday to steal back the thunder'.

Think about this last point; every single major Microsoft leak came true (Avatars, Lips, and even the 3D dashboard) accept the biggest one of them all, the motion controller."

"Ok, so this is all well and good, but where are the real features we've been looking for like playing Virtual Console games off of an SD card Nintendo?" - Engadget

How come you can't turn on your Wii to play a GameCube game and navigate to start the GameCube game using just the GameCube controller?
Why can't I exit a GameCube game without having to turn off the Wii console?
Why are my VC games stretched on my widescreen? (FYI: 360 Live Arcade games automatically put bars on the sides when in widescreen mode)
Where's the promised USB storage support?
Why can't I download game demos on my Wii?
Why do I have to use my phone to chat with my friends when playing an online game? (too busy working on that Wii Fit scale instead of a headset?)
Hell, why can't I even see when my friends are on their console and chat with them even?
Why did a game like Strikers already bring Nintendo's online servers to their knees when it was first released in both countries? What does this mean for blockbuster titles like Brawl?

Thanks for the clock Nintendo...can't wait for the next update in another 6 months.

The LCD Topgun has been doing this since before the Wiimote came out:

The X-Arcade works with the Wii using the GameCube adapter.

"the first American to hold the hold the top post" - Anyone?

That's not news at all, just news to Joystiq it seems:

Gears of War looks great (cept it's kinda black & white), but nowhere close to the KZ2 trailer.

I don't expect to see anything that good this gen.

Why does DiscoveryHD look better than any other HD channel? It's important to compare apples with apples when checking for the difference between the two.

Also if you have a 100"+ projector, you can see the difference for sure.

Who copied who on the wolf thing, Zelda or Okami?

Odd that they both have a wolf as the main character (to some degree), and in the video you even see the Zelda wolf dig something up like the Okami wolf.

Now I wonder if Zelda will get those awesome motion-drawn weapons from Okami?

Okami rocks, can't wait for this Zelda!

Okami is awesome, 40+ wonderful hours to beat! Loved every moment, highly recomend it.

It is better than Wind Waker easily.
