Well, today we got tons of footage, we have everything from Gothic 3, to Flatout 2, to Splinter Cell.

Also, the big event of today was the Sweeney interview, you can find it at the address below:

Sad news though as this will be my last day at E3 until next year as I was unable to get the 3rd day off, however, nrdstrm should hopefully be there tomorrow, and maybe will even get to check out Stranglehold.

Here are the photos I have for Day 2, parked outside was a Lamborgini :)

Quake Wars! Enemy Territory! And if you say my interview earlier, I am not too confident that Tim Sweeney believes in the Mega-Texturing that is used to power this game:

Also at the Nvidia booth, there was a game called "World in Conflict, and it was a very impressive looking game. It is still a year aways, but the amount of detail is amazing:

Heading back to the Razer booth, we can see the Tarantula here, launch is late July/August. Keys also have a 1ms response time, and the OLED display may be available as an attachment.

Also at the Nvidia booth was this baby... a dual GPU notebook. This is an Alienware notebook, with a custom paintjob, and dual 7900 Go GPU's. Amazing. The shots on the right are more pictures of the Nvidia booth.

This is what happens when you mix thousands of gamers, and a real life Lara Croft:
