The big three are once again going head to head before E3 even kicks off as their press conferences ahead of E3 are all confirmed. Nintendo will be holding its press conference at 9:30am PST (about. 5:30pm UK time, 6:30pm CET) on May 9, 2006 at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California. Cubed3 should be in attendance (we're just awaiting confirmation on that), so expect first hand reporting from the conference, along with photos and hopefully some video too. The conference promises to be one of the most exciting ever, with the Revolution being shown in playable form for the first time in front of a public audience. Expect major revelations and game confirmation a-plenty as Nintendo really pull out all the stops. Keep an eye out for Reggie...

Sony will be holding its pre-E3 conference from 2:00 pm (about 10:00pm UK time, 11:00pm CET) on May 8, 2006 at the Sony Pictures Studio in Culver City, California. The PS3 is the big news for Sony at E3 2006; so expect the Japanese giant to lay down all the facts about its next-gen console. Expect lots of graphs, charts and subtle digs at the competition. Finally, Microsoft will host its event at 11:30am PST (about 7:30pm UK time, 8:30pm CET) on May 9th, at Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Microsoft will be unveiling further plans for the XBOX 360, how they are going to attempt to do anything in Japan with the system and of course some of their biggest software exclusives will also be on show.

We'll be reporting live from E3 2006 in LA and our team here in the UK will be bringing you all the screenshots, news releases and event information so you're covered from every angle. Exciting times indeed, so stick with Cubed3 for all your E3 2006 needs!

Hehe, yup - we're going to reveal who's going once we get a little bit about them and a piccy if possible! Plus a sexy new E3 hub for constant updates.

News wise, sounds great - we're definitely in for a treat this year!!

So, Nintendo goes after Sony, but before Microsoft. Sony will probably get alot of journalists hyped up, but then Nintendo will make them scream like little pregnant women before they will laugh their asses off with another Steve Ballmer appearance at the Microsoft conference. Smilie

This year I will try to stay at cubed3.com for all my E3 goodness, but if another site has a live feed of one of the conferences I'm outta here. Smilie

How about, PS4 (if they make it that far without to many self inflicted shots to the're feet) will include everything Rev has now, it just wont do it as well.

If this E3 is set to be a big'un for nintendo, what id like too know is....

Is C3 set up to handle the trraffic influx.When i come online to get the latest new from E3 on nintendo, will C3 still be up and runing.

I dont mean to sound infavourable of C3, its a great site, which is why i want to be sure it'll still be working when i need it too, as it doesnt have the best reputation of site stability.
