THAT WAS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF 30 MINUTES EVER!

"Xbox Live will come in two flavors. All 360?s will come with Xbox Live Silver for free, while Xbox Live Gold will require a subscription. (Your current Xbox Live subscription will transfer over seamlessly.)

Silver will let you play games online on weekends, but not during the week and will let you track and chat with friends online. You can also access a marketplace to purchase games and download demos through the Silver edition."

THAT IS AWESOME! Free LIVE on the weekends...perfect since I work all week (days).

Rumored to be $300 for the base Xbox. $360 for the "Deluxe" that comes with a HD, extra controller, and content loaded on the HD.

kinda lame some parts. but you figured. atleast we got some interesting glimpse like prototypes they worked through etc.

I think ms will probably officially release specs at e3.

when they did the "monster inside" part I was like ooh specs, blah went to advertise xbox live

That was stupid. The video couldn't stay on one scene longer than 2 seconds without it flashing to another. Show me games, show me hardware. I couldn't care less about the Perfect Dark Zero deathmatch.

What a stupid show. They didn't reveal anything. We got to see a total of 30 seconds of game footage and nothing regarding the guts of the console was even discussed. Oh well, I guess changable face plates are more important to the MTV crowd than what processor it uses.

To much. The game play of perfect dark was choppy. You could barely tell with al lteh cuts they did.

Thats what I thought too..it looked awfully choppy, and I figured thats why they didnt want to show it much.

I think I may wait till the ps3 is released...I definitely will if there is no backwards compatability.

I wouldn't mind the deathmatch if the showed pieces of it. most of it was spent at the faces of the people playing it. wtf was that

Could be due to the framerate of the recorded footage?
