I'll end up missing most of the big stuff I think, unless I work from home on Tuesday to catch the Nintendo one, though I'll probably be all Zelda'd out by then. What are they going to talk about anyway??

They aren't having a direct this year. Just the obnoxious Tree house feed for the whole day.

Apparently there's a new one on the way!

Sony confirms PlayStation 4K, but it won’t be at E3 2016....

Andrew House, president of Sony Interactive Entertainment has confirmed to Financial Times that an upgraded version of PlayStation 4 is currently in the works.

House referred to it as the “high-end PS4″, and said it won’t be at this year’s E3. House also revealed that it would be more expensive than the current $350 model.

“It is intended to sit alongside and complement the standard PS4,” House said. “We will be selling both [versions] through the life cycle.”

The upgraded console will support ultra-high definition (UHD) 4K resolutions, as has been rumoured for a while. Sony is targeting “hardcore gamers” and consumers with 4K TVs, according to House.

“We want to ensure we have a full range of the best experiences on the new system that we can showcase in their entirety,” House added, explaining why the new console will be a no-show at E3.

Tackling the worry some have that releasing multiple hardware versions would make things harder for developers, House said the extra work needed will be “small but manageable”. “All games will support the standard PS4 and we anticipate all or a very large majority of games will also support the high-end PS4.” House added.

“The consumer is attuned to a different cadence of innovation in technology thanks in great part for the upgrades cadence on mobile phones or PC,” House went on, adding that PS4K exists because Sony saw an opportunity to offer “some additional benefits” to consumers as well as developers.

Finally, the executive said the PS4K will not be sold at a loss, the same approach the company had with the launch of the regular PS4.

this e3 is gonna be a borefest... i dont care about new games im drowning in games to play, i just want to hear about new hardware this time. but it looks like none of the three are gonna show anything but games.

Well I was waiting to find out about all three before I made a decision but it looks like I won't be any wiser after the next week. Backlog is still huge though so no rush!
