Pretty interesting stuff. Supposedly, the manufacturer/dev was looking to sell the camera for around $100. If MS can bring the camera to market for less than that with some good games bundled with it, it should do pretty well.

if it was a 100 and likely for profit then Microsoft can give them away to 360 owners and bundle it with new 360s.

I think that's probably one of the best moments of E3. Good stuff.

A short video of MS showing off the upcoming games on demand service. Pay attention at the 30 second mark. The demonstrator shows the option of switching between purchasing content with your MS Points or cash straight from a credit card.

Am I the only one who doesn't care about anything motion sensing??? It's all just a gimmick. Just another thing to brag about if you're a hardcore fanboi.

I don't care for it either. When I'm playing games, it's usually after a hard day at work, so the last thing I wanna do is flail my arms around to play a game. I'll stick with a regular controller, tyvm.
