Microsoft's E3 lineup

[SB_07]

Rumours of what Microsoft will be showing at E3 are flying, with talk of an Xbox 360 Metal Gear Solid 4 port topping the bill.

Someone twittering under the name "Game Fork" claims to have insider knowledge of what's in store for the platform holder's conference.

Apparently the big reveal will be Metal Gear Solid 4 + Oxide, as it'll be called. Konami will also announce a 360 exclusive - "NOBODY outside of Kon has been told what this is," says Game Fork.

Hmmm most of that you could guess anyway while the MGS 4 rumours have been going round since release. Still would be good for M$ if they can get it. Seems to be alot of chatter about a montion sensor for the 360 going about to but again could be just another made up story.

Still will be nice to see some new Alan wake footage and hopefully a release date

The rumours doing the rounds at the moment suggest that a Lord Of The Rings MMO maybe coming to xbox360 and may well be announced at E3. A recent survey seems to suggest something in the pipeline. See here:- http://www.gamedaily.com/articles/fe...-at-1299month/

Just read that 'The Secret Of Monkey Island' is coming to XBLA (Xbox Live Arcade) with glorious HD visuals (I hope!) and will be showcased at E3. News from CVG here;- http://www.computerandvideogames.com....php?id=215374

That on demand 1080p movies thing is all well and good but throttling of connection anyone?

Some good looking games there. I'm sure Joyride will be a lot of fun with friends. Also, anyone see the L4D 2 preview? Chainsaws! That MGS announcement annoyed some of my mates. They think MS are killing the gaming industry. Also, I'm liking the look of that Project Natal. It shall be interesting to try that out.

Moments ago at E3, Microsoft showed off it’s upcoming motion sensing system. Project Natal - that’s codename - will work with every 360 game when it launches and will be available on all the new systems. It has full body motion control by tracking 3D movement. Plus it recognizes voices, and totally immerses the players into the game. You can use your own gear like a skate board and such. Basically kicks that the Wii’s ass in the interactive gaming field. That is if the system works as well as the Microsoft video shows.
We have two questions: when and for how much?
Update: It seems that the pricing might have been revealed early by Brier Dudley at The Seattle Times. His post, which went up 45 minutes before the press conference, states that the price will be around $200.

While it is rather impressive $200 might be a tad too much, but knowing MS, it will be out a month and they'll slash the price

That MGS looks to be an exclusive. That has annoyed my PS3 friends.
