E3 has begun and there's no shortage of news, so here's a round-up of some of my favourite links from the conference:
- As you're probably aware (you can't call yourself a gamer if you aren't!) Square Enix has announced Final Fantasy XIII will be released for the 360. MTV Multiplayer attended the Square Enix press conference where a Q&A session was held. Here are some of the questions and answers.
- Major Nelson discusses some of the new features of the planned Xbox Live update. These include; storing a game on the hard drive so it'll run smoother, the ability to purchase stuff on the Xbox Live marketplace from any web enabled device, and (YES!!!!!!!) 1680x1050 support through VGA and HDMI.
- Portal: Still Alive is coming to Xbox Live Arcade!
- Gamespy has an excellent Fallout 3 preview.
- ...and more on EA's Dead Space.
- If you missed it here's Gamespot's coverage of the EA press conference.
- ...and here's what Will Wright said about Spore at that very press conference.
- Gamespot has some impressions of the intriguing Xbox Live 'MMO' quiz game 1 vs 100 (we have a version of the TV show over here in the UK, done by the National Lottery).
- Sim Animal? Ok.....
