I always liked the tech combos

I went to E3 as well. This is the third year I've gone, although, thanks to my school, it's the first time getting in legitimately and under my own name.
I didn't play Crystal Chronicles very much since I never did have another player to go in with. It seems interesting, but I hope it still has some good single player value (I tend to play games alone).
I liked Star Ocean: Till The End of Time, but i got beaten pretty easily since the text was all still in Japanese and I couldn't figure out how to do some things like give my allies AI commands so they won't just stand there and get beaten by the enemy. It also took me a while to find the items and magic to revive a fallen character. All of that aside, it looks like a good game.
MGS3: Snake Eater. That video was strange. The game looked interesting, but the video was nothing too spectacular. It was just a lot of scenes with Snake killing enemy soldiers. Some of the things were a bit funny, but seemed out of place. "What is this? Another Grand Theft Auto? This isn't Vice City, this is a jungle."

As always, they have a lot of free stuff, mostly shirts. These are all the shirts I got:
3 Gran Turismo 4 shirts
3 .Hack shirts (one of each design they had)
Deus EX 2
Final Fantasy XI
Ghost Recon
Splinter Cell
Mario Kart

I also waited in line at Brady Games section at the end of the last day when they clear out their booth by giving out their strategy guides. A lot of the good ones were gone by the time I got to the desk, but I did get a Xenosaga guide.

I just stumbled onto someone that we missed @ E3.

Now I'm sad.

Oh yeah. There were a lot of girls there, but my cousin was kind of upset that there weren't as many as previous years. Either way, he did fill up his camera with all the girls he could get. As for me, I was more interested in playing the games.
