Many analysts, including Herter, think this year's E3 won't have as much bang as previous shows. Herter said he thinks this is because of expectations for next-generation consoles being developed by Sony and Microsoft for release in 2013, and game developers' hesitation to make something that might have a short shelf life.

I think I saw that Epic is saving that studio, or at least the people that worked there.

Nike+ Kinect Training is the latest announcement. It is similar to the fuel band -- tells you how much "fuel" you have burned during the day.
