Well, after attending the first day of ECTS, I gotta say I found it a big disappointment. There were a couple of fun games (Battle Buddies on the SCEE stand was a good multiplayer laugh), but overall nothing groundbreaking. The NGPS video's were to brief, not enough to get you really excited, Nintendo's stand was a let down as well. There seemed to be more suits and less real games people than in previous years (a lot less nubile models as well ;) ). To hot, to crowded, to little really cool stuff. Still, I got to play with 3DS Max 3. Nice... Craig.
