IM fealing a bit lazy today so I composed a list of good and bad things I saw in the Microsoft Press confrence.

+Great Exclusive games such as Mass Effect, Katamari, ect

+All the games are comming out this year. This means we will beable to play these games around the holidays which is great because not a long wait

+ Rockband looks to be shaping up nicely

+ Walt Disney jumped on the Live Movie service banwagon which means classic movies that you diddent even know Disney had the rights to like the Waterboy and Armagadon will becoming avaible.

+Game lineup that included Bioshock, Fracture, Mass effect, Halo 3, Blue Dragon, Assissins Creed, Viruta Fighter 5, Call of Duty 4 multiplayer Beta, Call of Duty 4, PGR4, and more. That will all be avabale before the new year ( cant stress that enough)

+ The program I felt was put together well and did not spend too much time on how much money the company was raking in like some other CO.s (Nintendo)

+ all the games were played in real time

+The sports games from EA are running at twice the speed of last years games. which means a more realistic smoother game play. I am looking forward to that

+Seen It looks like a great party game/ Family game and it is cheap for a game and 4 controlers plus all the video clips are in HD

+Gears of war is comming to the PC with 5 NEW chapters. That is like adding a whole new game seince the 360 game only had 4 or 5 chapters. Mabey the story will make sence this time? Mabey..

+ It seemes that the Xbox Arcade is taking a turn for the better with games like War World, Undertow, Marathon (bungies first game),and the Sega classics such as Sonic and Golden Axe. Its about time classic sega games came out at a resonable price with updated graphics/sound and online multiplayer unlike the Wii VC

+ some of the content mentioned (Disney movies, Golden Axe, and Sonic) were up on the Live Marketplace on the same night as the press confrence. Which means the reason this blog is a list is so I can get back to playing Golden Axe.

+Jade Raymond Nuf' said

-Wasent as "fun" as Nintendo's it was more factual which made parts of the video boring to watch

-Viva Pinata Party Animals looks like a ripoff of mario party and fusion Frenzy. Which to me is not a good mix

-Gears of War for Windows XP and Vista, you cant make an Xbox game (halo 2) Vista only then make a 360 game (GoW) both I feal thats like saying to me ( I own Vista) "Well you bought Vista looking forward to exclusive games but we feel that it is not going to work yet" and it almost seems that they are admiting a mistake

- The Halo edition of the 360 was plain and sorta sad to watch be unvailed Peter standing there with it in his hands and all you hear is a lone clap, but that sould have been expected because its just Microsoft trying to suck every last penny out of Halo.

-Moore's comparison of Halo to Starwars might have rubbed people the wrong way. Sure Halo is big, but should the Co. that brought it to life beable to put it on such a high pedastool?

- Fealt like I had blinders on that would just show me games not any accsories or hardware, and would not let me see too far into the future

All in all I fealt that Microsoft had an awsome show with great game lineup for this year just wish we saw more of the future. I plan on writing a more indepth blog of the confrence with less spelling/gramar errors in it as soon as I beat Golden Axe:D

I just got an email saying congratuglations Vincent C. you have been chosen to participate in the halo 3 beta guess what I diddent realize that my crackdown had the beta in it till today so i have to beta invites lol

I just wanted to stop by and say Merry Christmas to every one. I hope you have a great holiday tommrow. Also have a Happy New Year

I have been modded for the first time seince i have singned up on NOV.  11 2003 Do i get an emblem lol :P

    Yes i know i made a post about this but heres a blogg

    Ok so its 4:30am and I get to Best buys a guy tells me I have to sign in if I want a wii because the manager would use it when handing out tickets. So me and my friend get the last two spots 62 and 63. So, naturally we felt confidet about our chaces, but around 7:00 am we saw people cutting in line that made me feal not so good about the chances to get the wii. about 3 mins after i saw the first cutter a guy came out and said he was going to put a few emploies out to stop cutters. These guys did absolutly nothing they saw 4 guys cut, the woman in front of me let them know that she saw 2 people cut, they just shrugged their sholders and said "So?." Ok so as if that wasent enough the manager came out and said " I will not be honoring the list because many people did not know they had to sign it because they were sleeping".

    RIGHT they were sleeping so they sleep walked to the car drove and got in line all with out waking up. Any way around 8 a fight broke out between people who have been there seince 3am and cutters that came at 7:50 am the mananger came out again and yelled as loud as possible "I don't care if you cut if you are in line it dosent matter to me if you cut". what he basicaly said was, screw you people who came here at 4 and later because the people who cut at 7:50 are getting the wiis. Now as if that wasent bad enough when time came to hand out the tickets he would hand them out and people would yell out $200 for my ticket. Now as you can guess many people were P*ssed off at this and people tried to talk to the manager, again he screams "I don't care what they do with the tickets if they sell it is up to them, Besides whats the diffrence between Ebay and Best buy."
   
    Well moron, i thought, Ebay is the place that you pay Hundreds of extra dollars for something you might not get and Best Buy is sorry was a respectable retailer that you would expect to not let scalping of tickets allowed. By this time I was very Pi**ed off and I tryed to have a talk with the manager at which time he cursed me out saying your lying you werent here all that time, and i diddent say any of that. I just flipped him off and left.
