E3 press sites

Microsoft

Microsoft provides press material in a very nice way. It's readily available for anyone as there is no password protection (except for some press releases), and you can find anything from game covers in PSD format to logo files in vector format (EPS/AI mostly).

Xbox Press Center: http://press.xbox360.com/

As heard on the name, deals with everything Xbox. Not so much event related, but there are some photos and assets from certain presentations. No password needed.

Microsoft's Games Press: http://microsoft.gamespress.com/

Used by Microsoft UK mainly, but features assets for several regions. Much like Xbox Press Center, but with much more material. Press releases are for some reason password protected, but everything else you can download freely.

Microsoft News Center: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/

All things Microsoft! Here you can download assets not only for Xbox but for all of Microsoft. Event photos (from E3), logos, press releases, product shots, video and much more. No password needed.

Nintendo

The hub we will be looking at during E3 is Nintendo of America's media site: http://press.nintendo.com/loginSplash.jsp

While it is password protected, there is a guest pass available under the following:

Username: guest Password: nintendo

Nintendo usually during E3 offers a temporary login specifically for the related press kit. That ought to be available this year under:

Username: E32012 Password: nintendo

I will update the above once more details are made available. If you need a permanent login, you can contact Golin Harris associate Deanna Talamantez at 213-438-8742 or dtalamantez@golinharris.com. Video is also available at http://www.thenewsmarket.com/Nintendo.

Sony

Sony's press sites are password protected, though there appears to be a generic login available for one of them. I'm unsure if I can share it however as it is not labeled guest/temporary, but I will look into it.

PlayStation Press Center: http://presscenter.playstation.com/

This is Sony Computer Entertainment America's press site. You can download artwork, logos, press releases, product packshots etc.

Sony PressVault: http://www.sceuk-press.net/

This is Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's press site. Operates as the one for SCEA, but I do not think there is any guest pass for this site. I haven't heard of one anyhow, but if anyone knows please tell.

General press releases are available here: http://us.playstation.com/corporate/...press-release/

Electronic Arts

EA has two press sites, one for North America and one for Europe (well, UK to be specific).

EA NA Press Site: http://www.info.ea.com/

Features press releases, product packshots and screenshots mainly. Mostly supplied in JPEG format, but videos are available in high quality (many in 1080p format). No password needed for download.

EA EU Press Site: http://ea.gamespress.com/

Similar to the NA site, but features files in other formats than JPEG. Password is needed for download though. If you need express access, contact Owen Crane contactUKPR@ea.com. Otherwise, you can simply register on the site, but it's for UK media only.

Ubisoft

Ubisoft Press Extranet: http://pressextranet.ubisoft.com/US/US/default.aspx

To gain full access to this site, you will need a login. However, all relevant sections for E3 are available without a password. "Events", "Press Releases", "About Ubisoft" and "Contact Ubisoft" you can browse and download from freely. E3 2012 material will be available under Events.

Good work on the round up! I'm not at all invested in MS or Sony, but I'll keep my ear out for DS and Wii announcements (however unlikely) and PC announcements.

I used to have a blog link here. I'll put it back up when the blog has something to read.

Just saw on IGN that Internet Explorer and the music service were confirmed at the MS conference. MS also announced SmartGlass, which allows you to integrate your tablet (iPad, ect) "seamlessly" with your gameplay (displaying stats in real time, world map, ect).

South Park RPG looked amazing definitely seemed to have the humour of the show, would be nice if it found its way to wii u too.

It's a Nintendo forum, so what do you expect? Microsoft and Sony could team up and resurrect Freddie Mercury for a Queen reunion concert and there would still be people here claiming they failed.

Microsoft did not impress me very much at all. I enjoyed seeing the South Park game and Splinter Cell. That was about it though. I've never been pumped up by the other forms of entertainment XBOX offers other than gaming. I already have tv, i dont need to stream it off of my xbox. same goes for the music stuff, but with my laptop.

I wouldn't say it's a failure at all. They announced a new Gears of War, Forza, and new Halo 4 stuff. of course, I don't care in the slightest for those series (or most western games), so there was nothing of interest to me...

...Well, I actually enjoyed the fact that the 360's FINALLY getting a web browser (for a system that's supposed to have the best online integration, it sure took them long enough).
