Microsoft E3 2009 Press Conference
2009 June 1
Microsoft kicked off E3 2009 with a 2 hour-plus press conference ripe with massive annoucements and lots of surprises. I don’t even know where to start but I know that Sony and Nintendo will have a difficult time bettering Microsoft’s show. Below are some of the major announcements made by Microsoft this year with special bias on the things I care about.
- Final Fantasy XIII dropping next spring
- Shadow Complex – a new XBLA game from Epic heavily influenced by Metroid
- Splintercell Conviction – exclusive to the Xbox 360
- Forza Motorsport 3 – Bigger, Better, Badder and more social
- More Halo ODST information and the announcement of Halo Reach
- Alan Wake resurfaces with amazing gameplay
- Facebook and Twitter being Incorporated into the Xbox Live experience
- Metal Gear Solid Rising coming to the Xbox 360
- Project Natal – Full-Body Motion Control and lots of demos
One of the Big 3 press conferences down, 2 more plus a conferences from Ubisift and Activision to go. Can’t wait!
