Quick Microsoft E3 press conference notes

- Obviously, the biggest story to come out of the Microsoft presser was the Natal announcement.  For me though, I don’t how much we’ll see of any of it for gaming.  I think it would have better applications for people using their home computers rather than virtual world/gaming interactions.

Cost will be a huge factor for it.  Pricing will have to be terrific or they’ll be looking at a lot of issues trying to get this to the masses.

It’s a facinating tech demo, but I remember the tech demos that they showed when they first announced the Xbox and we never anything close to that during the life of the system.  Time will tell.

- Facebook on Xbox 360?  Forgive me, but while I have a Facebook account, this is something I have ever thought that I needed.

- Share Video Content with your friends… meh.

- As for the games, lots of sequels. Forza 3, Halo stuff, Splinter Cell, Left 4 Dead 2…

- It’s E3.  Everything is about hype.

- Was it just me or was the Beatles game one of the only titles actually making it’s way out this year?
