E3 microsoft live press conference

Starting shortly

Here

Just clicked this, caught the end of CoD Black Ops.. looks yawnish..
Then they announce that new map pack releases will be on xbox360 first, for the next 3 years..

I'm impressed with the look of Metal Gear Rising.

Graphics looked awesome, and being able to cut anything up looked really good too

Is having time limited exclusivity for maps and add ons really that big of a deal?
There's no way I'd buy a PS3 just because some map packs were released on that system a few months or even a year before we got them. Certainly not a deal breaker for me.
That bit you saw from Black Ops, should've been accompanied by Ride of the Valkyries

Gears 3 looked sexy

My connection isn't that great, what did Cliff say the new mode was called? Beast?

yup. apparently we'll see some of it

I'm not interested in it, i just thought it a surprise announcement.. He actually said "If you ant to play the new maps, you have to play them on 360.." surley if ps3 wanted to play it they'd just wait a month or so..? Unless he meant some maps exclusive just to xbox..?

Anyway All the Audience just got a new 360 lol jammy sods

they just gave away the new xbox free to everybody in the audience at E3, it ships this week in America for the same price as the old one, looks like i better start saving.

Absolute fail.

When a new Halo is the best looking thing you've got, give up. All that Kinect shit looked horrible. Waving my hands to control LastFM? Ass banditry made mandatory in my opinion.

All Sony have to do to win E3 this year is, you know, announce some games.

This post has shocked me as you are normally our most positive and constructive member with balanced and even views

arf!

i liked the konect stuff the fact that you can get into the cars in the new forza game look round the cars and stuff. i liked the look of the new halo game looks like this could be a lot harder than normal and a few new weapons mixed in

i liked the look of gears looks immense and with up to four players coop this will be top notch. i am sure more will come out in time.

jammy sods getting the new xbox but looks very cool and i cant see playstation move being all that good

Very disappointed with this years conference, the metal gear game looked good as did gears 3 and halo reach but we knew about those games already, I was hoping for some nice surprises like when they announced forza 3 last year. As for kinect I was expecting the types of things they showed (wii sports rip offs) but given that the xbox 360's success is purely down to core gamers like us lot I was hoping that they would have used the new technology to give us guys some cool things too but they obviously just have dollar signs in mind from looking at nintendo and want a slice of that pie, shame really as used cleverly I think kinect could really deliver some cool gaming experiences

same as ba5sett not a patch on last years not even a surprise xbox arcade game we knew everything

natal reaching release and a new quiet shiney shiney 360

seems like a great E3 to me
