I really want to make E3 2010, if it will be held.

Going to try and convince my dad!

Thanks for sharing.

 

Project Natal and Milo are unreal, in my opinion. If you haven't see the video demonstrations yet, take a look at [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oACt9R9z37U"]YouTube - Project Natal for XBOX 360[/ame] and [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxU_T7C4Ils"]YouTube - Project Natal - Let's Meet Milo[/ame]. Milo is just freaky - I can seriously see him brainwashing people to kill people in real life for him. And watch you while you're sleeping.

I'm very hyped for Crackdown 2 and Forza 3 out of everything, though. Imperial, did they do the Marketplace demos for these, do you know?


Also, great summary on the keynotes.
