The final chapter in the E3 saga! finally! A few members of the team had a squished interview with Bioware on day 2. Here's how it went.

E3 is still going! At least in our fragile minds. Eric-Jon has sent in his impressions of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games from Konami. Far more on the home console versions than the GBA offering, but both are a bit on the negative side. Read on to see why.

E3 will never die!! Our games coverage was late, to be sure. But in ultimate insert credit style, it's length and precision over speed. Tim's E3: a frightening journey covers just under 70 games and accessories from the show, countless stories of our trials and tribulations, subtle psychoanalysis of staff and non-staff alike, and video of the alarming proceedings. 11 pages of epic game journalism you can't be without.

Poor overworked Eric-Jon has taken it upon himself to transcribe the entirety of the SNK Neo Geo USA interview that we conducted over E3. Previously available only in MP3 form, this should be helpful to those of you on narrowband, or who just couldn't sit through the thing. It's a word-for-word transcription, as much as is humanly possible. Read it again, for the first time.

Two levels. Four hours and sixteen minutes. Inside is the story of two gamers, Jak II, and the meaning of lives.

Sometimes, interviews give you far more than you bargained for. Even before a word was said, Tim knew that the producer of .hack is: a punk-rocker.

Hear everything that happened in our interview with SNK... all 35 minutes of it. While there was plenty said during our time with SNK, what wasn't said proved just as interesting.

Sammy has a strong lineup this year. Besides the aforementioned Seven Samurai 20XX, and other console games, they're also prepping three games for the Atomis Wave arcade system later this year. Extremely exciting stuff for all.

Some more video footage for you this weekend. This trio of videos (each ~1 minute long and 10 MB in size) shows off some gameplay footage from Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles. Square seemed to be rather annoyed when we unleashed our video camera prowess, so rather than provoke them further, we pulled a Metal Gear Solid and covertly captured footage at a remote location. (Read: captured video at the Nintendo booth.) A full preview to follow later this week.

This year's E3 saw a Sega that wasn't the force it was in previous shows. Regardless, Sega continues to flaunt a solid lineup. Eric provides his thoughts...

And you thought we were done with portable gaming news at E3. While Tapwave's Helix product wasn't available for public scrutiny at the show, there were plenty of bits and pieces floating around for Brandon to comment on. Behold another entry in the tight race for second place.

It's always satisfying to see properties that we love getting the respect that they deserve in a video game format. Eric-Jon found himself in the bowels of Bethesda Softworks' meeting room and found the experience: satisfying.

E3: B'ngo

With n-Gage, PSP, and thirty other handheld system announcements (very slight exaggeration), it takes a lot for a system to really distinguish itself. B'ngo does just that.

E3: Playphone

While it's easy to get caught up in all the hustle and bustle happening abroad in the grand SNK drama, events like E3 do a great job of revealing the strangest things from ever closer to home. Witness Playphone, purveyors of cellular phone entertainment and, surprisingly, SNK properties.

E3: Castlevania: Lament of Innocence

Lament of Innocence. It's a Castlevania game. It's an experiment in 3D execution. It's a power metal band from Sweden. Which of these doesn't belong? Eric-Jon has the answer.

E3: Seven Samurai 20XX

With the blessing of Kurosawa's son and gameplay courtesy of the masters at Dimps, Seven Samurai 20XX looks to be a smooth and stylish action game with music and story in spades.

While we'll take a more in-depth look at the new SNK tomorrow, a conversation between our own intrepid Eric-Jon and Ben Herman, president of newly reformed SNK NeoGeo USA, revealed details no SNK fan should go without.

After seeing a lot of 3D shooters based on World War II, Tom Clancy, and other miscellaneous conflicts that touch a little too close to home, it was rather comforting to see fond memories of video games past revived. Yes, Konami: you are great.

Sony has finally announced a handheld console. As usual, it boasts some impressive specs. But this may be nothing more than fancy jargon for a hardware that simply does not yet exist. Take a look at Vince's thoughts on the device, the newest attempt to threaten Nintendo's throne.

Nokia throws a mean party. We saw this during the GDC, but the ridiculous level has been raised to astronomical heights. In between the mumbo-jumbo and the dancing could-be-preteens, several precious nuggets of raw information can be gleaned. The full story, shots of the show, screens of the games - all can be found within.
