Seems like no one watched this year.

You all picked a good one to skip over.

The rule of 2 is now in effect, Sony in 06, Nintendo in 08 and now MS in '10.

There were no major surprises, other than MS parterning with Crytek for Kingdom and the announcement that new 360 goes on sale this week.

They had demos of Gears of War, Halo Reach and Call of Duty: Black Ops. Showed short gameplay of MGS Rising, Fable 3 and I think that was it.

They then spent the next hour on Kinect. Which has some cool features like menu navigation, but then everything else looked like deriative games from the Wii.

You had your sports collection, your dancing game, your Fitness game, your kart racing game. And yeah, they all look how you expect them to look.

They announced no price, but a release of Nov 4th

ESPN on XBL is another cool announcement but I get like 10 of those channels anyhow.

And this is Kinect's launch line up
