Microsoft Press Conference

Well, I wanted to make such a thread too. In about a hour and 15 minutes, which makes 1pm PDT, the show kicks off. Discussion and such could be held here. (Awesome!)
Gamespot is feeding the show, so grab a chair and some popcorns. Hopefully this is gonna be good...

This is the Microsoft Press Conference thread for discussion of all things related and/or occurring in said conference. Play nice and stuff.

(I've edited the post, Grawl )

Jam it back in, in the dark.

At least post a link when you rush this.

How ya doing, buddy?

MS conference isn't live, presumably to edit out Bill Gates looking like a tard.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The last one, I want to see if their visuals can outdo the PS3.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Gamespot says otherwise... But if you're right, I'm gonna slap myself for being to eager

I was speaking idiomatically.

I will laugh if it opens to a CG of master chief blowing up a PS3 shaped object.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Two things; one, show fuckin' Halo 3. If they do, It'll be my fuckin' day again (Yesterday being the day I was accepted at Art School ;-D). Secondly, if they show or tell me that Killer Instinct 1 or 2 (or both) will be available on Xbox Live Arcade or even if they announce Killer Instinct 3, I will get naked and run around the streets.

FELIPE NO

Hell, I think I'll settle for some kickass Arcade games. After all, that's where Xbox proves that gameplay is as important as graphics...

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Also, I hope it's true, the rumor about the fact that MS may announce a legal version of a MAME-kind of emulator on Xbox Live. That would just rule beyond everything.

Man, a Wii and a 360; you got the best of both worlds.

How ya doing, buddy?

Haha, I forgot all about the Live Arcade. This should be most interesting indeed.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

MS has SO MUCH stuff they could show at the conference, this could be it for MS going into high gear.

Well, it seems you have to sign up for a live stream of the Microsoft press conference. Fuck this, I'm outta here.

It's not like MS will have anything new to offer, anyway.

WTF?!! You have to register!!??

I was speaking idiomatically.

The hell? Why were the other conferences free for non-subscribers but not the Microsoft one? That's pretty stupid, do they really expect that people are going to pay $6 to see 1 more conference live when we've already seen 2?

How ya doing, buddy?

Yeah and even then you'll probably just get a crappy cam version. Seems live streams are not allowed due to copyright regulations from MS.

Anyhow, Microsoft sucks for ruining my E3 evening.

FELIPE NO

11:54 He says current attach rate for XBL is 57 percent, adds that Xbox Arcade is the secret to the success.

Oh man, that Halo 3 footage looks INSANE.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Wow! If you have a 360, check out Live now! Trailers of Halo 2, Fable 2...SHADOWRUN! Oh god, someone please link to the Shadowrun trailer here! Why can't they have streaming video like the other conferences

Thanks!

WHAT HALO 3 FOOTAGE?!!!

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

You need a 360 to watch the trailer. Is there any doubt Halo 3 will be good?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Shadowrun screens here: http://www.xboxyde.com/news_2922_en.html

I'm actually VERY GLAD it looks like an RPG and not a first person action game like was rumored. Kinda like KOTOR but in the Shadowrun universe, which IMO, is very cool. I can't say I'm impressed with how it looks though, I really hope they put gameplay footage of it up.

How ya doing, buddy?

Did I read that right? A constantly updated GTA 4 exclusive to the 360? I'm surprised it isn't going to be ported if that's true. Especially to the PC.

Wow, now THAT is surprising. Looks like MS pulled a rabbit out of their hat this time. Strange as it may sound, this was probably the most unexpected news I've heard from the show yet, just because the chance of it happening seemed so unlikely. That would explain why there was no mention of a GTA game at the Sony conference...

Edit: man, this thread is so boring compared to the other two, over there you could refresh the page and get 10 new posts. Here noone is talking...darn you lack of live feed
