    GameSpot has posted an E3 article entitled "E3 folds tent", comprising a couple of paragraphs dealing with titles, numbers and future expectations. Here's a snip:

    Sony geeked out the entire industry with movies that showed off what its upcoming hardware should be able to do; Microsoft gave patient show-goers a chance to get their hands on the next generation of gaming; and Nintendo proffered the first details on the Revolution, as well as launched a stiff counterattack to Sony's encroaching PSP with its sleek Game Boy Micro.

    But it wasn't all about the hardware. Between The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Kingdom Hearts 2, Okami, Spore, Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes, New Super Mario Bros., Ultimate Spider-Man, Star Wars: Empire at War, Burnout Revenge, the new Metal Gear games, and dozens more, it seemed like every platform and every publisher had something hopeful in the works.

    Show officials said a record 70,000 attendees walked the miles of aisles located at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The shorthand version of metrics tallied as follows: 547,000 square feet of exhibition space consumed, 400 exhibitors in place, 5,000-plus products on display (80 percent should be on store shelves by year's end), and 1,000 new product launches tucked into the many nooks and crannies of the LACC.


    And the whole thing is at GameSpot.
