I didn’t go to E3 this year, but thanks to sites like Google Video, I don’t have to settle for news bites and first impressions. I can watch the full-length press conferences from Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo, as well as in-depth tours of almost every booth at the show. (OK, except maybe Kentia Hall.) What more could an armchair pundit want?

So, without further ado, here are my thoughts on E3 2006.
