I stumbled upon this on Xbox.com and was really surprised. Is the video game industry really that big now? I mean, this is cool I guess, but a little weird. 

"We look forward to making entertainment history again at E3 Expo 2010 and can’t think of a better partner than MTV Networks to exclusively share our news, experiences and Cirque du Soleil's amazing creativity with an entirely new audience," said Don Mattrick, senior vice president, Interactive Entertainment Business, Entertainment and Devices Division at Microsoft.

what.

Maybe they'll do some totally awesome stuff with Natal. Regardless, this doesn't sound like a good idea, but at least it's better than Duffy. No offense to her, but she was singing to the wrong audience, that's for sure.

Ya I heard about this a while ago. It's going to be weird and hella stupid. Almost as stupid as using the word "hella".

They are totally going to use Natal for dumb shit ain't they.
 
Well, I guess they could find someone who wears bodysuits so it'll probably go alright...

Awesom.... wait, what?
 
Ok. Thats at least interesting. Another reason to see this conference without owning a Xbox 360

thats totally stupid.  
 
what they did last year was great, made an e3 conference with live television in mind and took full advantage of it. now sony will definitely be doing the same and i heard rumors that theyve got a great show coming to e3 (its fucking sony theyve got sooo many connections when it comes to entertainment that microsoft cant even come close to) and nintendo will probably do the same. so, i could be totally wrong and blowing this out of proportion, but if MS is making their conference all about entertainment because that aspect was the most well received part of their show last year. so i think maybe they are getting carried away. i think we can all agree that we could totally do without the circus act folks. its like o0o0o0o0 cooll.....i came here to see the games wtf.  
I think Sony is going to have the best show since games-wise, sony totally owned it but sucked presentation wise in comparison to MS...but who knew ms was going to totally revolutionize the E3 conference the way they did! Now that its apparent to everyone that the shows need to be extra polished, Sony is probably going to pull some strings with its massive company and of course butler will be there so thats automatic win. lol
 
 
im realllllly curious about their shows since we kind of already know what to expect from MS. Nintendo could be a hugeeeeee surprise and end up very creative.

I'm still not 100% sure if it's just going to be broadcasted via MTV before the real conference, or if it's going to be part of the conference. Cool stuff though. "

Cirque du Soleil is pretty rad. I think it'll be a cool event if they go whole hog.

When is microsofts press conference anyway what day?

Bleh. I hope they keep the conference strictly about video games, instead of showing some stuff and basically going "Okay guys now here's a totally random performance by Cirque du Soleil!"
