And the games shown where just meh.

Different Tv set ups and stuff in the UK, so the TV planner stuff will probably not happen here (Much like WiiTV or whatever)

Personally I'm looking forward to E3 to see more from all companies. No body is really wowing me at the moment on the home console front.

That's actually the point. It's an entertainment system, not a gaming system. But that's what the 360 evolved into, and other consoles of the current and next generation are also the same.

When it comes down to it, I buy it for games though. But enough people will use the other features that it's worth it. And it broadens the appeal a whole lot.

No. Those were actually the two games I talked about wanting reveals for in my club's Facebook group during the conference lol. And when the 343 rep came out I got so excited. Not that the TV series isn't a great announcement, but I wanted Halo 5 lol.

I'm sure they'll be at E3 though, as overrated as it is to me too. Well, I really hope they will be.
