Woo! Share any news you pick up. I'm particularly excited to hear what Bungie have to say about Halo Reach, apparently they're going to reveal some stuff. For those who are unaware, Gamescom is held in Cologne and it's the European equivalent of E3. However, on Thursday, it's completely open to the public who get to run around playing all the games - unlike E3.

Despite being really keen and enthusiastic about E3 this year this seems sorta 'meh'

Microsoft dates Kinetic in Europe (6 days later than the US)
PS3 gets Resistance 3 and Mass Effect 2
Microsoft announces some mobile live stuff for your 'phone' (too little too late)
Sims 3 comes to consoles .....
Age of Empires and Flight Simulator 'return'
Sony announces 2 new SKU's - one with Wii motion Move built in and another without but a different size hard drive ....

These aren't substantially different from the current Slim models, mind.

Yes. BD + Disgaea and various intangibles (setting myself up with that one, I know).

I should end up getting a 360 at some point. But that's what I said about the... 180?
