The ps3 has pretty much no exclusives now. The only ones i can think of off the top of my head would be Gran Turismo and maybe killzone/resistance


umm uncharted..god of war. there's more but that's a couple

true, forgot about GOW and uncharted. Haven't played Uncharted but i loved GOW

Well, I've got to run to some meetings, but I'm guessing I won't be missing much. Except the EA press conference and Mass Effect 2. :(

With game development costs being so much, there's really no such thing as a 3rd-party exclusive anymore. Few and far between these days.

I'm willing to buy the camera if it'll convince my parents to try some console other than the Wii.

I agree. I mean if they better have a crap load of cars(hundreds of skylines don't count) and DAMAGE and better AI (no driving on a track. )

edit: So cool, I have had 2 time warps in the same thread.

Well, Steven added absolutely nothing to the presentation beyond mentioning that his game development outfit is working on games for it.

Doing a live demo of Project Natal (the motion control camera).

Showing off dash navigation by moving your hand up and down.

Showing off a game called Richocet. A 3D breakout with your body used to bounce the ball to break the wall.

I'm actually impressed with it thus far. How much I end up being impressed will ultimately depend on the $.

Facial recognition sign-in is sweet. Wonder how it would react to two people being on the couch, though. ("Raise your hand to sign in!")

I am freaking astonished that the camera looks as useful as it does. Well played, Microsoft. If they can make it do light gun games like the Wii does, I'll be ready to pronounce it the superior technology.

LOL...demoing the camera splash paint thing with two people looks like it could have some very Austin Powers-esque instances with it.

I think it signs them both in if it recognizes both their faces with gamertags attached to that 360.
