E3 and the NEW xbox360!!!

Who is stoked on all the new features that are emerging onto the xbox live scene?
the new ESPN feature is pretty cool also the kinect attachment will make the xbox kind of like a Wii but better imo it looks like the whole system is going to be alot more smooth and clean compared to the Wii!

also how about that new XBOX at the SAME PRICE!!!

IDK how well you can see that but its a good bit smaller and has built in
250G HardDrive as well as WiFi (F**king Finally!!!)

eh, the only thing anybody is really interested is the Sony Move and Project Natal, as long as my box doesn't get the red rings, I couldn't care less what it looks like. Plus, it doesn't matter if it can do what the Wii can, you'll never get to play Super Mario Galaxy 2 on it, which IMO will be this year GOTY


Can't wait to watch though!!!

Project Natal is KINECT they just released its official name and its not about what it looks like except its space consuming it also comes with built in WiFi !!!
meaning we dont have to pay for that stupid ass 100 dollar wireless adapter that is a big plus not to mention the 250g hard drive it comes with in the 300 dollar package
they didnt even bump the price for this which seems really cool on their part. Also i agree nintendo has those game titles on lock which will set them apart from the rest
of the gaming platforms ppl still love mario Obviously who doesnt! But the KINECT or project natal allows you to control your xbox through voice commands for example they had a guy watching a movie and he said "xbox pause" and the movie was paused also he fast forwarded simply using his hand up in the air!!! that is pretty revolutionary imo it is something worth having. I mean you dont even need a controller you just use your hands also it recognizes ppl and will access your xbox account for you another cool feature.

I saw when Project Natal was on E3 last year, I can't wait to see what they've been able to do with it since then. I'm a non-biased gamer myself, I have all 3 consoles, my problem is anything new like the Move or KINECT = more $$$ for me cause I just have to have them, hahaha

Wonder if i could sell my Modern Warfare 2 elite edition with 250GB HD and wireless n adapter and controller - for enough to get the new one

Yeah im not biased either but i do prefer Xbox honestly LoL
But The KINECT is something that looks like its more for your entertainment side of the Xbox i dont think i would neccesarily
buy it jsut for the games.
If does kind of have some neat looking games with some obstacle course where you gotta jump and reach for things and its kinda neat but
the whole hands free aspect and voice recognition is what i want the KINECT for

I'm with you on that, if my Wii or PS3 went down I'd survive, if my box got the red rings, I go straight into panic mode...hahaha, just long enough to plug in my back up xbox, lol

I am going to sell my old 360 for one of these babies.

Yeah im with you on that haha i dont have one atm i use my Room mates but he dont care he never on
anyway.
but yeah E3 is still going on and EA is doing their thing right now they showing some Battlefield 2 expansions and showing off all their new releases they are all looking pretty sick!
also about that kinect there is a game on there where you dance and it recognizes FULL body movement your not stepping on some stupid pad looks pretty neat

Oh also EA is coming out with a game
called MMA its not under UFC thing and it looks alot better than
the UFC games that really dissapointed me

EAs downfall with the MMA game will the lack of names behind it. EA is also behind the new online charging system where you will need to pay an extra $10 to register a used game to play it online, still cheaper than new but EA is always looking to bend you over and stick it in there dry, just look at the Madden series, it's gone to shit. The NFL needs to cut that stupid licensing contract when it's up and let other developers take a crack at it.

Don't forget it was Dana White who went up to EA and asked them to develop the game, their reaction was that MMA was not "big enough" at the time to make a game for, fuck them, now they want a piece of the pie.

Ahh yeah i did not know all of that but yeah they just revealed how they are going to make Madden not suck anymore lol
some new play system or something idk the only sports games i like are Soccer and i dont even play soccer i just like em haha
but im more of a Shooter gamer but i mean i will try new things
but you are right they revealed like randy coutoure and some other guy that im almsot positive is retired
hopefully EA wont fuck up their new medal of honor title coming out it looks pretty sick along with Battlefield2 expansion.

tbh I cant stand the thought of sitting there waving my arms around in the air
you cant beat sittin on your ass moving nothing but fingers and eyes
I hope this newly released tech do not spoil the gaming industry

I'm currently playing Super Mario Galaxy 2, I'm at around 85 stars or so, I think there are 120 total with about 18 hours into it. I quit playing Modern Warfare 2 when I found out about the new map pack, I refuse to pay another $15 for maps that are redone, especially so soon after the last release. I'm also going to pass on the next release and probably the entire series from now on. Shooters are my favorite but I'm thinking about transitioning to MMO's, like the new Star Wars MMO (even though it's EA I believe)

I was looking forward to Portal 2 but it got pushed back and Gears of War 3 isn't until next year. With the economy the way it is I can't just buy any game I want anymore so I need to be picky until I'm back on my feet, I almost regret buying Bioshock 2... :/

Yeah i see your point but you cant deny the fact that telling your xbox to pull up menu or pause a movie or not having to look for a remote in the dark when your maybe watching a movie with a significant other i mean come on you cant beat that besides doing it with your mind.

bioshock 2 ughhh was a waste of money for me big time!
and yeah i see what you mean i played World of warcraft for better part of 6 years i dont regret it but i did have to move on with me either going to army soon
or college have not yet made up my mind i need a less time consuming gaming hobby! WoW takes alotttt of fucking time.
but i do hate how they just leech our wallets it sucks but that is what the whole gaming industry is for they want to make money and advance their technolgy to make
more money lol
so i mean its just everyone trying to make their dollar you know?

I agree, you can't beat that shit at all, it's out in November but I didn't see any pricing estimates

you didnt see any pricing cuz its prolly gonna be like 120+ imo because they look at it as everyone has Xbox not this is an expansion upon the xbox console
it wont be cheap but i think it will be well worth the money if you got it. and worth it if you use your xbox as an entertainment platform not just a gaming console.

Also look at the Crysis2 gameplay Trailer OMFG looks so Good!
gotta turn tv off or im going to be broke at the beginning of next year!
oh it comes in 3d btw

I hope to hear the announcement of Infamous 2 and it looks like I'm going to need a 3D tv for Killzone 3
