Xbox 360 & Playstation 3 to launch before E3!!

At 3 PM Pacific on Monday, May 16, Sony will hold its E3 press conference on a sound stage in Sony Pictures’ complex in Culver City where it is expected to publicly unveil the next PlayStation for the first time…
Microsoft already announced earlier this week that they plan to announce their next Xbox, aka Xbox 360 or Xbox 2, also on May 16th.

Sony will present the PS3 on a sound stage in Sony Pictures’ complex in Culver City, just outside Los Angeles, at 15.00 PST on Monday, May 16th.

Microsoft will show their Xbox 360 three hours later (smart move by Sony) in downtown Los Angeles. At least both announcements are in the area of LA where the E3 is.
