The Hardware of E3 2004
 |
|
Here you
are ladies, a PSP for the hip gamer Grrrl. |
There was a bit of new hardware at
this year's E3. Sony's PSP and Nintendo's DS made their
debut. The ApeXtreme DISCover was playable on the floor and the mysterious
Phantom console, by Infinium Labs, revealed itself. The useless new
N-Gage was there as was Gizmondo, which seems like something that
will follow the same fate as N-Gage. There were a bunch of peripherals
all over the place, like the nifty Pistolmouse, and we got a good look at
an interesting device called Zodiac.
We do have a confession to make,
though. We never actually went to see the PSP and DS. We were
originally planning on standing in the overly long lines where the wait was an
hour or more, but then we saw other cool games and went to try them. Then we saw
more booth babes and had to get their pic. Eventually we had to make a decision;
wait in these ridiculously time consuming lines, or try more games that we didn't
play yet. We chose the games... and the girls. Besides, we'd be able to
read all about them and see pics of the things when we got home and we're sure
they're better than all the other new consoles at the show anyway. We snagged
one pic of a white PSP at some point, but that was really it. We felt we
made the right choice. Below are our opinions on the hardware we did check out.
