E3 2009

Ricochet demo from Project Natal shown, Paint Party being shown right now, recognizes voice, you can paint on the virtual canvas.

They did

LOL nice elephant

An interactive game shows a character called "Milo" interacting with the other person completely, he can recognize voice changes, face changes, questions...

Demo shows interaction with the "lake", recognizes the hand movements, the lake reflects your figure

WHAT? The person drew a picture, "put it in" the game, and Milo recognizes the drawing...HOLY S***

ok i think NOW they are wrapping up the show

Yup its done

---

Well the end was impressive lol.

Who wants to bet the Project Natal sensor will come at a heavy price.

I think the camera will run under 100 bucks, which isn't too bad considering thats all you'd need to buy. Beats buying 4 controllers, 4 nunchucks, 4 wii motion plus things.

---

Just another note, the MGS countdown will end in 2½ hours time.

Hopefully this time it's not another countdown.

It isn't, not after Kojima announced it

---

What's so sad about him announcing it?

I hope he says "just kidding" at the Sony conference.

Ok here is the summary of the Microsoft conference at E3 2009:

- Untitled Game showcases a character named “Milo” interact with the person through talking, facial recognition, emotions, you can interact with the game such as touching “water”, drawing a picture and literally “giving” the picture to Milo.

My thoughts:
Damn! So far almost everything they borught on the table didn't suck, Project Natal is just...holy s*** amazing, sucks that the next/new MGS is on the 360, but oh well, that's why i have friends with 360's The conference wasn;t that bad, i guess they learned from their past mistakes...

So tomorrow morning is Nintendo's and Sony's conference...wonder how they will beat microsoft's conference >_>

THAT would make me laugh XD

---

Awesome! I wasn't expecting Left 4 Dead 2...I can't wait for the game to be out!//

---

it's on the 360, don't own one, brother despises 360 and anything xbox, blah blah etc. etc.

---

I REALLY doubt it's Xbox 360 only. I'll be shocked if it is.

If you remember the fat guy, he said all games showcased at the conference were going to be "Only for Xbox 360"...

...but i do DOUBT that it will JUST be on the 360, no freakin way Kojima would do that >_>

---

My first thought on Project Natal:

Hottest Party port please. No pads.

Sony better announce a price drop for Europe for the PS3 tomorrow. Charging us £299.99 ($449.99) in Europe is not funny.

DAYUM! That's harsh

---

Uh...Rock Band: Beatles was shown wasn't it? That's not a 360 exclusive.

No no no, at one point, he said from this point onwards, all games shown will be [ ONLY ON XBOX 360 ].

Ah, ok.

Well what a conference to start the whole thing off...

...i just don't quite understand why Microsoft wanted to go first one day before the event opens...didn't they do that last year too?

Anyway, (hopefully) expect something tomorrow or Wednesday about the new DDR title(s) coming out this year, man i can't believe Konami's conference is right around the time when i graduate...oh well hope they replay it over again so that i can see it

---

I'm guessing they'll announce the DDR games tomorrow, as the floor is going to open tomorrow and Konami will have the games on display. By the way, I noticed DukAmok said that they would be showing off the various "titles" (note plural), so that could indicate that there is more than Vol 1? I guess we'll have to see.
