So, I got back to my lair tonight after a good graduation dinner for my lil’ sis and saw I had a voicemail on my iPhone. The voicemail, I discovered, was from Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days’ Lynch himself. In the message, he stated he needed my help (assuming I was Kane) with a job in Shanghai and ending the message with warm sentiments of how it would be ‘nice’ to see ‘me’ again…. Oh how I love the Electronic Entertainment Expo marketing stuff – Let the games begin!
You can listen to the voicemail message below (wmplayer 11 compatible):
We called the number back but received a robotic ‘Lynch is in Shanghai right now’ message. The message did say we should try our call again later, so we will!

Greetings, dear readers, we just wanted to tell you about our secret project which we have been putting together for the last month – an interactive, LIVE video feed from the show floor of the 2010 Electronic Entertainment Expo. Beginning Tuesday, June 15th at 2:00 pm PT, we will have a reporter walking about the show floor with an HD camera. Now, showtimes will vary each day, but you can find them listed on our official E3 page so you will know when to tune-in.
We will stream this feed to the site for you to enjoy but, more importantly, we will have someone in the feed chat room taking requests as to what you want to see. Forget this ‘mainstream TV telling you what to see at E3’. You want our reporter to checkout the latest happenings from Activision? Chat it and the moderator will route that request to the exhausted stalwart reporter on the floor. You want him to run up to ‘Developer X’ and whine about their last game offering? He’ll do it (maybe)!
Also, during this LIVE feed, we will be having intermittent breaks where we have giveaways for prizes sent to us by the fine folks at Shuttle PCs, Funcom, Cryptic Studios, and CCP Games! So, join us, this is going to be fun…

In it, numerous developers talk avout the game’s story and how it promises to be ‘epic’, with a large focus on regaining Geralt’s memory. Also mentioned was that the story is non-linear and allows for a lot of customization in exactly how it plays out. Right now, the game is expected only out on PC, however, rumor has it that we may see it announced for consoles as well at the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.
