I rate that MS conference a 7. But about the LIVE TV, is it streaming because I have a feeling a lot of ISPs will hate this.

Wow MS was laughable. Halo CE only good thing from that. Kinect is the future and it looks bleak.

Mass Effect 3 and Forza 4 with Kinect look awesome, Future Soldier looked really well done with Kinect, Ryse looks like it could be cool, Halo 4 looks to be a little on the fantastic side.

Everything in the beginning of that Conference was pretty damn amazing.

yeah, the Kinect aspect was WEAK. People screamed how Nintendo was ruining gaming but, that Kinect stuff looks a lot worst then what the Wii has ever dished out. Thats my opinion by the way :|

Wow is all i can say. They are pushing Kinect hard. It sold well so i guess that was to be expected. Next year, look for even more Kinect games, on Microsoft's new console (if they announce it then) b/c i have a feeling Kinect will sell even better now.

Not a single Kinect game impressed me at all. Forza looked cool. Tomb Raider looked decent. That's about it. :|

I thought it was pretty good until the Disneyland game showed up. Then it was a downward spiral into crap from there.

What Mass Effect was doing with Kinect was nothing new, but it's cool seeing games like that where you give orders through the mic, but I hope you can just use the mic instead of Kinect. Ghost Recon was the only game I thought that was really neat with the Kinect support(Customizing the gun), then I saw the guy shooting lol.... Really was a bad and hilarious conference, but they showed the games I wanted to see even if most of them were huge disappointments.

I don't see why you need Kinect though to do voice commands; Tom Clancy's End War proved you don't need Kinect to do that...

It's not developed by Bungie. If history teaches us anything it's that when franchise switches devs it starts to fail badly. I'm keeping my expectations low.

Also, aren't voice commands doable with any microphone?

Ghost recon stuff was cool, Mass effect 3 stuff was odd and out of place..amazing to think the best Kinect game on show was Dance Central 2 and even then they didn't demo it properly. 2/10 overall. Tomb Raider was really the only big new demo they showed. Gears looks great but we've seen it before, same with MW3, nothing exciting. Embarassing level with the kiddy games. Seriously.

Horrible, all their exclusives that looked worthwhile outside forza were shooters. At least MOVE failed enough that they won't make a whole conference around it.

First half was pretty good, second half was pretty terrible.

No real surprises either. I also don't like the look of Halo 4 from the trailer.

I doubt I'll ever consider 343's stab at the franchiseTRUE Halo games.

6/10.Good at the start but once they got into the kinect only games,it got embarrasing but entertaining.And announcing a new Halo trilogy is massive even if we knew about it beforehan

I find it funny that MS is taking crap for supporting a $150 peripheral. Finger tracking, 3-D rendering are updates that weren't available and that game developers can creatively use in their games. It could be like Wii motion plus or the Sony Eye cam, where they were released and promptly forgotten about. Cows will argue about exclusives, I will say overrated. Sheep, IDK, what will you say? Great games to play will be coming on the 360, so what they aren't exclusive. MS is positioning itself as a must have console with all of the ancilliary features not available on other consoles. How nice is it, when you are done playing games, to quickly switch to TV, Netflix, ESPN or some goodnight music. Seemless, without going through 10 menus and launching 5 programs. Voice search, has, no need to fumble for a remote or controller. What MS did is provide a plethora of tools for developers to use and take advantage of, to set their game appart from everyone elses. It is now up to them to deliver.

Halo 4 is underwhelming because we've had 2 halo games since 3. If they just announced HAlo 4 4 years after 3 then people might get excited, fanboys still will but it's a terrible "big" announcement.
