While you listen, I just want to muse a bit about E3, or rather the prerelease.
E3 is in a few weeks. Every company is gearing up for the show. Some companies, such as Nintendo and Playstation, are going to have halls full of people. So, why are they announcing their products ahead of time?
One of the earliest official release of items was the Kingdom Hearts 3D English Trailer. With E3 only a short time away, people believed the trailer would be hid until then. However, the trailer was released last week.

PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale was announced before that, but that should have been held off until E3. It's a big deal. We still don't have a trailer for it. We have a partial characters list, we have video of battles, we have a rundown of how the released characters fight.... but we don't have a trailer.
Why didn't Sony wait until E3? Why didn't Square Enix wait for the KH3D trailer?
The KH3D trailer is 10 minutes long (No, I'm not kidding) so Square Enix may have released it early for that reason, but Nintendo could have shown it off at E3. Kingdom Hearts is a big property and the 3DS is still looking for games. And the time would be more manageable if they cut out the battle stuff in the middle.
But Sony has no excuse. The game is big. The game is a fanboy/girl's dream. Why not wait until E3 to surprise everyone? Where they afraid of being scooped? Is it not good?
Or do they have something bigger planned? Sony is announcing 20 games at E3, what are they? Where they afraid the game would get lost in the shuffle?
I'm just not sure. Why do you think they released it early?
