Jack Tretton on Almost Yacking

You may have seen a chunk of this clip before, but we wanted to pull out the meat, so to speak.

Justify Your Game, Rock Band

I personally see it as cheating if people use less than the allotted 15 seconds, but it's a viable strategy...we will need to find a way to punish it.

Justify Your Game, Boogie

We should have asked her to justify the slow-ass service at Sushi Roku, where we saw Heather and her fellow EA staffers later that evening...eating while we starved.

Justify Your Game, Army of Two

We should have asked them to justify their tampon-healing mini game.

All the Peter Moore You Can Get Your Hands On

Our fearless leader was all over the place this E3 and but got chance to sit down with Microsoft's Corporate Vice President, Interactive Entertainment Business, Entertainment and Devices Division (that means he's the big Xbox guy) Peter Moore and chat about a variety of subjects. We've been posting the videos up for you in nice bite sized pieces but in case you missed any, here's the breakdown after the jump.

With the Big 3 all competing for everyone's attention, naturally someone must have come out on top of the heap. Listen and hear Mr. Moore tell you who he thinks won. I bet you can't guess what he says.

Xbox hasn't really said much about theMGS4 for Xbox rumors and here, Peter Moore talks about the relationship between Konami and Sony and how Micorsoft acquires exclusive games. Hey, he has a Linkin Park ring tone!

The retirement of Ken Kutaragi was big news, and Mr. Moore speaks respectfully and thoughtfully of his colleagues retirement.

With the announcement ofHalo 3 Special Edition Xbox 360 Mr. Moore talks about previous special editions of other consoles and gives his take on the mild reaction to it at the press conference.

Here, Peter Moore talks a bit about the PS3 price drop and multiple versions of the hard drive sizes. But his big question is a sound one; what are you going to do with all that hard drive space?

First and foremost in many peoples minds has been the Xbox 360 Death Syndrome and Crecente gets Peter to talk about why one might give a warranty rather than a full recall.

Crecente quizzes Peter about his tattoos and Peter replies by admitting to checking out Angelina Jolie. Funnily he says "I don't know why I was looking at Angelina Jolie." Oh come now Peter, even I know why you were looking at Angelina Jolie

And finally, in classic James Lipton style, Crecente gets Mr. Moore's opinions on one of the big questions of the show, the death of the old E3. this one loads a bit slow, so go get a cup of coffee and come back.

All The Miyamoto You Missed

Noah Robischon — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 12:38:28 MDT

Here's a handy cheat-sheet for viewing our six-part Miyamoto video interview. We covered everything from the death of E3 and his retirement, to the future of the Wii and DS.

In Part 1, Miyamoto answers a question that many people have been wanting to ask: Are you going to retire anytime soon? You hope the answer is no.

Then we asked him about the future of the DS, and whether another iteration of the Lite is in the works. He said there are no concrete plans for it anytime soon.

The follow up in Part 3 was a lot tougher for him to answer: did Nintendo intentionally manipulate the Wii supply? But if you have been holding out for an apology from Miyamoto for that fact that you couldn't find one this holiday season, then here it is.

The big question on everyone's mind: is E3 dead? In Part 4, we asked Miyamoto for his thoughts on the future of the triple-e, and whether Nintendo would now participate more fully in the Tokyo Game Show.

A Wii upgrade is inevitable. In Part 5 Miyamoto told us about Nintendo's plans for the evolution of the console - including support for HD.

In Part 6, we asked Miyamoto about whether Nintendo has given up on the hardcore gamer market in favor of casual. He challenged us to re-think the definition of hardcore gaming. Touche!

Finally, in Part 7, we corned him about the GameBoy Advance - has Nintendo given up on the platform? You may not like his answer...
