Although not strictly tech, there was a lot of news spewing out of gaming's equivalent of CES, E3, this year and as promised last week it revolved around 3D and motion gaming. Microsoft hit us early on with Kinect, it's product name for Project Natal, plus the new Xbox 360, the console they should have released at the launch of the 360 some years ago. It's smaller, quieter and without the ability to RROD (Red Ring Of Death) because it's lost its ring of lights. Sony also came in with a one-two punch with PlayStation Move, its stab at the motion gaming market and PSN Plus, it's premium online gaming network, though it's yet to show us a convincing reason to pay for the $49 per annum service. Last but not least, Nintendo unveiled their latest pocket friendly console, the 3DS to the world and if hardened tech journalist's faces were anything to go by, then Nintendo have something impressive to put in your hands. At least we know it'll continue the 'it prints money' mentality as Nintendo's stock price took a sharp rise on the 3DS's announcement.
