News: With a giant banner in Los Angeles.
Kotaku's Stephen Totilo sauntered down to the Los Angeles Convention Center and took a few pictures of the massive banners that now adorn in advance of next week's E3 Expo.
Most are pretty much "been there, done that" as far as new information goes, but a few do stand out. Chief among them is the banner for Ubisoft's Driver: San Francisco. We all knew Driver 5 was coming, but Ubisoft had yet to formally announce the game's official title. After Ubisoft registered a related URL, Driver: San Francisco was considered the frontrunner. But now it's official.
Another interesting image is Sony's
PlayStation Move banner. It depicts Kevin Butler wielding a Move-powered bow and arrow with the peripheral's new advertising slogan: "This Changes Everything." A Kotaku commenter pointed out the slogan should probably read "This changes something that has been out for a few years now, however it has been slightly upgraded and tweaked. So it actually only changes something. To say everything would be hyperbole." Heh.
Finally, there's a banner for the new
Mortal Kombat featuring a silhouette of a man with a severed head. No new information there, but it's quite cool looking.
Other banners in the gallery include
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Crysis 2, Epic Mickey, Fallout: New Vegas, F.E.A.R. 3, Final Fantasy XIV Online, Homefront, Mafia II, Marvel vs Capcom 3, Red Faction: Armageddon and
WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011.
