And the E3-best of show award goes to...

... the Sony PlayStation Portable, a.k.a. PSP! According to several game critics (site employees, editors of magazines) Sony's PSP had the most influence on this year's E3, something even the Nintendo DS couldn't change! That's why the critics awarded it "best of show". Besides that prestiguous award Sony's PSP also won best hardware/peripheral. I guess congratulations are in order!

Other pricegrabbers were Halo 2 (best console game, best online multiplayer, best action game) and Splinter Cell 3 (best graphics, best PC game, best action/adventure).
