Ready for a long day of gaming goodness? You’d better be, because today’s the coveted Monday before E3, which means that the video game powerhouses are coming out of the woodwork to duke it out in hopes of intriguing gamers tuning in from all over the world. First up to bat is Microsoft with the Xbox Media briefing, which is set to kick off in less than an hour from the Galen Center in downtown Los Angeles.

So what will Team Green bring to the forefront this time around? Will the Gears of War reveal be as satisfying as it was when we first caught a glimpse of it back in 2006? Will Microsoft drop any console selling announcements that will get their install base caught up with PlayStation’s? We’ll soon find out.

Not able to make it out to the LA for the media briefing? No problem! Not only can you catch the live stream for yourself right here, but you can get some insightful commentary from Dan Casey and myself as we will be live-blogging the entire show down below. Also, remember to stop back by later, as you’ll be able to catch the EA, Ubisoft, and PlayStation media briefings all here on Nerdist.
