The annual Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) promises to be super exciting this year! The convention is scheduled to take place in downtown Los Angeles this week.
With Wii sales down, Nintendo won't hold back when unveiling the features of the much anticipated Wii 2. According to the Huffington Post, "Gamers are anticipating features like high-definition graphics and touchscreen controllers."
Sony has much impressing to do after its recent massive security breach, which affected more than 100 million online accounts. The game giant plans to introduce a new hand-held device called the Next Generation Portable (NGP).
"John Koller, director of PlayStation hardware marketing, said the NGP will be slightly larger than the PlayStation Portable and will feature a touchscreen, touchpad, two cameras and an accelerometer, meaning it can react to motion."
In addition to the NGP, new titles will be released for the Play Station 3. Unlike Sony and Nintendo, Microsoft will be focusing on new games instead of new devices.
"The most explosive battle for hype will involve Electronic Arts vs. Activision, who will simultaneously use E3 as a theater for their military shoot-'em-up franchises. Activision Blizzard Inc. aims to continue to dominate with the globe-trotting Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, while Electronic Arts Inc. hopes to capture interest with Battlefield 3.
