With E3 around the corner, everyone is wondering what all the big(and little) companies are going to announce. Seeing as we have had little to no info since the last E3 about Natal, why did they announce it last year at all? Shouldn't you only announce something that is going to come out prior to the next annual installment of E3? Otherwise, it's really all just filler.  
 
 Same goes for the PS3 Move. We got some nice info at the GDC this year so it gets a pass, but why wasn't it announced at GDC and NOT at E3 '09? Again, shouldn't that stuff only be pertinent to the next fiscal year?  
 
I believe I am beginning to see how differently the game industry is run as opposed to big entertainment expos of yesteryear. It all amounts to hype. I am leery of this years installment of the exposition for the simple fact that none of the stuff mentioned could come within the 2010-2011 fiscal calendar. It could all be about hyping up the next great thing from 2012 or beyond. If that is the case, do I really need to know about the pre-pre-alpha version of said product now? Nope. I want to know about what is coming to me soon(ish), not what is still so far away on the horizon that it may not even include features that people talk about it having now. Especially with all of the garbage in the blogosphere hypothesizing ad nauseum. I'll take a pass if that is what is going to happen yet again.
