Think I'll reset my router just in case it plays up (it does after it has been on for a while). Don't want my stream cutting out.

Here's hoping for an awesome conference. Set the bar high, Microsoft.

EDIT:[Post-Conference]

I'm truly excited about Microsoft's new innovations mentioned at the conference. I absolutely love the new Dashboard (and Guide looks amazing, too!), the Netflix partnership is incredible (although I don't plan on getting a subscription), and the new games are simply the best on any console, according to my personal tastes.

I can't wait! I doubt Sony or Nintendo can possibly top this, even looking at this from a non-fanboy view.

I'll be watchin here and on G4. Mostly G4 cause it is better on a T.V imo, but they also go to commercials every now and then and last year they cut out just before the Halo 3 footage.

I can't wait though. Please don't dissapoint me MS, like last year when you spent time on your Scene It controllers,:roll:

It would suck if they released a Gears 2 demo but only for like the week of E3 because I barely sent my 360 in yesterday.

Whoa you can?? Is that a super secret M-Mod power I know nothing about? :O

I'm hoping for something cool, too. I'd really like some more concrete information on the new Banjo Kazooie as well as something exciting that I'm not expecting.

I'll be watching this from Gamespot and I'll be in the live chat the whole time, so I hope to see some of you all there. :D

Ouch, but they never did that, a limited time demo, they remove demos after a long time, so you would have time;)

I really hope they don't screw up Banjo Kazooie, I am really looking forward to that game, looks really fun and nice, one game that I am really looking forward to seeing there would be Rock Band 2, that game will most probably be better than GH4:P

Ya I guess, but there was this one time with Madden 09 gamer pics and I think a theme that were free, but only for gold members, and as soon as I got gold, it was gone. I really wanted Brett on my 360.

I'm hoping they don't screw it up, either. :/ And I'd LOVE to see a finalized Rock Band 2 track list sometime during E3. The leaked one that's been floating around is really good; I hope it's the real one. :P I want Rock Band really bad but I haven't bought it yet since I'm saving up to go to the UK for 6 months in January. I've asked all my friends to chip in and get it for me for my birthday, though... *crosses fingers* :P

I want Led Zeppelin in Rockband 2, that would be great, and some Linkin Park and some more Disturbed, they got many others but I can't think of them, what would be awesoem though if you can make your own songs, like you and some friends get together and can record your own song, then it could be shared online so like you can download and play it, that owuld be awesome:D BTW I'll buy it for you, you live pretty close to me, Mississippi and Louisiana are pretty close:P

I really don't like the look of the new dash coming in the fall. I don't need or want some bland avatar and the whole thing looks pretty boring. I hope you can atleast put some colourfull backgrounds/wallpapers in.

Hurray for stealing horrible ideas from the Wii and calling it your "vision". I assume I will get a refund for any themes and pictures I bought.

I must have missed the RE5 part, the site was down for the first 15 minutes for me. Great news, that's the game I want most.

Netflix and watching movies with friends, very nice.

Bango coming out on XBLA, also very nice. I still have it for the N64 but haven't played it for years.

Im prolly not gonna be taking advantage of the new movie and song and watching movies with live freinds type of thing. Im just gonna be playing my games (Fable 2, Saints Row 2, etc.)
