Anyone been following so far? Microsoft has had some pretty big announcements. A MGS project for the 360 as well as "Project Natal" which looks very promising, but looks like it's a long way off yet.

The Star Wars trailer was pretty amazing. I've never been an MMO guy but I'll have to give this a shot.
I DVR'ed all of the big press conferences. (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, EA, etc.) It doesn't get much geekier than that, I know. I have only watched Microsoft's and the EA Sports part of EA's and I gotta say Microsoft absolutely blew me away! I thought it was fantastic talking about their game line up with Beatles:Rock Band, MODERN WARFARE 2, (WOW!) an actual skateboard that you use for the new Tony Hawk game, Alan Wake, a new Splinter Cell, and Halo: ODST. Then they went on to say Netflix will be upgraded, you'll be able to watch full 1080p HD shows and movies immediately (no downloads!), a new radio service, plus facebook and twitter will be available to use on the 360 in the fall.
But the Project Natal revelation just blew my mind! Playing without a controller? Full body motion capture, and facial and voice recognition! Think about the possibilities for games in the future with that technology!
Microsoft owns.
Now watch Sony's. It has some of Natal and the Wii in it...
I expect them to try and copy Natal's tech more though (face and voice recognition).
This trailer looks sweet:

Will do. Here's another Natal clip. Now by no means would I ever want to do something like this in a game, but think about the interactions you'll be able to have in future RPG's, etc.Quote:
