Simply because this is so hard to root through, please post any major announcements (not stupid stuff like new screenshots of already announced games but new games that are announced or announced as exclusives) here. That way throughout e3 anyone can log onto to this thread to get a list of all the major developments. Try to keep the thread small by only posting here if you have something not already posted on this thread and try to provide links if you're an insider.

Well...if WWE Raw would be on xbox live, I would be impressed, but I'm not. Microsoft should buy EA to make them improve their xbox games and do online sports games only for xbox. EA are moneygrubbing whores...
