So the dust isn't even settled on E3 and Peter decides to make another big announcement - the big farewell. At first I thought maybe it had to do with the console repairs announcement a few weeks ago, but after some informal inter-office talks it doesn't look like the news is that juicy. :( More likely Peter's style to gear things up a bit, providing a lot of energy, then moving on to another project.

Games I'm Excited for: Blue Dragon, Assassin's Creed. -DR

Halo 3 Trailer - did you see those in-game graphics - and new vehicles!? Messenger Kit - for real, can't wait for this one - i'm big on chatting. Whats-his-name-football player - do you think he REALLY plays Xbox? Yeah, me neither.

So with the high rollers in Santa Barbara covering the big show (there's finally a decent E3 site up) there's a handful of us Lackeys back at HQ in Redmond getting all the details ready to go for tomorrow's big press briefing. If i haven't pimped out our coverage too much yet, check out our site: Xbox.com E3 Coverage. Here's some of the highlights we got going on for E3: We'll be Bringing it Home via Marketplace and keeping tabs on our Marketplace Ticker Page, so make sure you keep a close watch on that guy. If there's dirt you want Major Nelson , TriXie , or any of the other personalities to dig up down there, send a request to the gamertag xboxdotcomE3 . We've got an "Official" Blog for more direct info about E3, as well. And for the other lesser known lackeys (i'm talkin about all you gamers out there who like to run your gums) - there's always E3 Gossip on the Forums. Catch you later, there's scurring to be had.
