This is what happens when you have to eat $1 Billion. Me thinks Mzoft will be recouping the lost money from the faulty (every) 360 by scrapping every event they have to fund. *buys PS3*

Hahahahah…I just realized…wasn’t ALL the talk when the PS3 came out that the controller’s could explode and the system would become incredibly overheated? I’m really thinking about jumping ship back to Sony. Blu-Ray for the win?

There is nothing to announce (as I mentioned before), they have zero, zilch, nada NOTHING NEW up their sleeves. Why waste a lot of money on a press event that can only result in bad press ? E3 was already a disaster for Microsoft from a marketing/pr point of view.

And to be honest, imho M$ is close to their ultimate goal: the brand is accepted in our living rooms, we pay regularly, they deliver video on demand and soon iptv and THAT is all they want. Games were just the foot they needed in the door. With Moore gone now it’s not unlikely that the gaming business will lose much of it’s momentum over the next 1-2 years and the platform will change into what Microsoft envisioned many years ago already.

Nothing of this is really a surprise, other than maybe the timing of events. Enjoy it while it lasts, I know I will.

I seriously doubt that I could care any less.

Make the products, test the products and then release the products. Correct any errors/flaws and mistakes.

Beyond that, I don’t really care.

What good is an event to hype the new stuff, when the current stuff is so full of bugs and problems?

That’s my opinion, but to each their own.

To be honest, X06 was a week after TGS last year. I know Japan isn’t big on Xbox, but they could make some annoucnements there.

It does stink though. They made some big announcements at X06.

damn that’s a real shame, for me the X0 events were more important than E3 for the most part
