e3 '07

Video game wise, what do you think this years E3 will be like with all of the changes? I don't know if it will be better than last year but I'm not as excited as I was last year. I'm still excited to see info about some of the great games for the 360 though. I'm looking forward to the content that MS will put on Marketplace. They put some great stuff up last year and I hope they keep it up.

XNA help

I downloaded Microsoft Visual C# Express Edition and XNA earlier. I thought it would be fun to try making stuff like that but I am totally lost. I have no idea how to change the game's code or anything else. If someone knows of a helpful website that I could see that teaches someone new to this stuff please tell me. Thanks.

Bringing it Home 9/20/06-9/29/06

This time, Bringing it Home showed that Microsoft can continue a great idea. Over the 10 days that it took place, I am writing this on day 6. Today there was a rush of new content and even Mass Effect pics. :D Even though right now there is only 27 items, I am going to list the ones I liked. I will continue my list as the days go by and more downloads are uploaded onto Marketplace. UPDATE: Well today is the last day of Bringing it Home and the last two days were a disappointment. Mainly trailers. (Why did they release an X06 picture pack the LAST DAY of X06?)  I tried the Sonic demo and boy did that suck. I kept dying cause the camera could keep up with Sonic. Bringing it Home ended with close to 80 new items (or a little more cause not all new content was under Bringing it Home but I included some of those).

  • Mass Effect pics
  • Tokyo Game Show pics and theme (didn't like the guide pattern though)
  • Forza custumization trailer
  • Kane & lynch: Dead Man trailer
  • Free LOTR maps
  • Army of Two trailer
  • Doom on the Arcade (only got the trial version but I am thinking about getting the full game)
  • Need for Speed: Carbon trailer
  • Blitz: The League trailer
  • Frontlines Fuel of War trailer
  • Banjo-Kazooie trailer
  • Assassin's Creed trailer
  • Bioshock trailer
  • The Darkness trailer
  • Tony Hawk's Project 8 trailer
