For all of you interested in E3 and unable to attend Techfocus have a nice little report up with some pictures.

"Half Life 2 was demoed by Valve, but once again they showed off static running game demos, not actual gameplay. Graphically, it's a pretty game but we left feeling a bit disappointed that they did not seem any further in development than they did last year. Kind of strange that the gameplay shown did not show the character's hands controlling the vehicles.

LucasArts had a nice showing of Star Wars Battlefront and Republic Commando. Republic Commando looks like a neat squad-based game where you can control your squad's placement and focus their fire during the real-time battles. The clone troopers vocally respond to the commands you issue and it looks very pretty indeed but we're wondering if it's depth will confuse the FPS crowd.

Bandai will be releasing Ghost in the Shell and Cowboy Bebop tie-in games. They look great and play well, looking like a rolling beat-em-up and shooter using characters from the Anime series(s). Very playable."
