Finding High Quality Videos from E3?

Alec T asks: "Seeing how E3 is fast approaching, I was wondering where Slashdot readers go for their E3 fix? Gamespot, IGN and 1UP all provide free low quality streams and downloads, however we are reduced to having to pay to access high quality trailers and press conference screenings. Why is this? Is there a site out there which caters to our high definition needs? If bandwidth is such a concern, maybe BitTorrent would be the best distribution method, particularly for the console press conferences?"

  1. Microsoft really nailled it this time by JFMulder · · Score: 5, Informative

    Apparently, all the 360 trailers released during E3 will be downloadable on your 360. Now that's great marketting. Plus, some of the E3 demos will actually be downloadable :) I can't wait for next week.

  2. FileShack will have HD videos by Neeex · · Score: 5, Informative
    FileShack, part of Shacknews are going to be filming the demos/trailers/videos with their HD camera, as they did last year.

    They have a queue-based download system that's free, although queues will probably be pretty long during E3. I do believe, however, that the first month's subscription, allowing you to skip queues, costs $1.

  3. Finiding High Quality Videos? by techmuse · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'm a little bit rusty on my finiding. Can someone explain how to finid properly? I've checked all the usual sources, and even read the manual, but there was simply no good information on how to finid, finidation, finidoscopies, or finid finales.

  4. Gaming Horizon by Asriel86 · · Score: 5, Informative

    Gaming Horizon has partnered with DivX for E3 video coverage. They're offering everything for free, including high quality trailers and such. Everything's nicely integrated with the divx web player, or you can just download.
