>from Xbox360fanboy.com and majornelson.com
Sorry folks – I have been working from 8-22h. today – totally exhausted. And was not able to follow the E3 at all…Â Â Â
So – I just have to deal with it and report all the news I can find this fast….;
the biggest news (ofcourse) is the fall update on the xbox360. Which will give us;
* playing games from the HD…. (not surprising uh… first “giving us” the 60gb HD……) – of course we still need the original disc in the loader….; but everything will be able to go faster……
* access Xbox marketplace from everywhere – even on the computer… order stuff etc….and it will load automatically to your console at home…
* more a kind of chat room… with watching together a movie…..gather together before a game (max.of 8 people)
* primetime; real live games = all together at the same time the same game/quiz – with real prizes – a live host… (this really sounds like fun to me !!!)
* the avatars…. totally not clear to me what that should ADD….
* netflix; watching movies (even together…) = mmmmh wondering where europe will be in this one… but on Xbox360fanboy they are even talking about “free movies” for the Live members…. mmmmh = even listened to the announcement = and yep – with NO ADDITIONAL COST !!and some gaming news;
* Final Fantasy XIII on Xbox360 !!
* the game I dont want to speak about – okay ssssst….Rockband 2 – will first exclusively debut to the xbox360 (with 84 songs)
* Guitar Hero World tour; with more than 85 tracks !! + the news that the new album of Metallica will hit Xbox Live at the same time as the album release…. And people will be able to share their own compositions via GH Tunes
