I think it was pretty historical.  

I give it a nice 4 stars, there were a lot of impressive demos. I wasn't very stoked about Project Natal though.

5 ot of 5, is this camera technology works, alongside the Milo AI program then history will be made.

three stars. game announcements were decent, but very little are lined up for this year. Everything else was a bunch was a bunch of shit I have absolutely no interest in.

Kind of crazy they didn't show Mass Effect.

I think project Natal will be pretty cool. 

3

a bunch of sequels that could be good or could suck, twitter and last fm which are only cool if you care about them, and natal which could be the wii mote all over again as far as what the video shows and what you can actually do

It's still exclusive to them, and is pretty big.

I said 3. I think the camera is great technology, but not something you would want to constantly play games on. Fun at first, but wears out. I do like how you can use it to control the NXE. For the most part, it was all the games we expected, and no real surprises. 

It's a three, everything that wasn't about motion control or pedophiles was awesome.

I didn't even watch it except the very end (I mean, the very end, just after Molyneux finished talking). Based on that... Uh.. I don't know.

The Splinter Cell: Conviction demo was cool, Alan Wake was... okay, and the motion control stuff was amazing in some spots (Milo, basic Dashboard navigation) and just dumb and gimmicky in others (painting, flailing around kicking balls). Everything else was pretty boring, to be honest. Well, hearing that Kojima wouldn't be there and then seeing him sneak up was pretty funny.

I'd say 2/5, same for EA, Ubisoft gets 0/5

3/5, was hoping to see a larger line-up of new games. And they totally pulled a Wii on us, shame on them.

It was pretty rad. It was things they didn't do which deserve them the most credit. Like montages and power-points.

I enjoyed it and was surprised by the plethora of things they showed and offered to us 5 stars

MS 4/5 more big suprises and core games
EA 3/5 (still very impressed)
Ubi 1/5 WTF

Looking forward to Sony
Couldn't give a fuck about Nintendo

4. Known quantities and no real surprises gamewise. The end section was definately interesting in terms of the tech itself, but the demonstration wasn't that great. Solid overall i'd say.

Even with my alignment being Sony, that was 5 stars.  Microsoft has position, they just needed to deliver the games.  New Halo, new Megal Gear, new Alan Wake footage, footage of Rock Band Beatles including members from the band and their families on stage. 

Then they go above and beyond, integrating last.fm, Twitter, Facebook, showing off motion controls and then Molyneux's spiritual successor to Seaman? 

You needed to start the back to bigger E3 off with a bang, Microsoft delivered... damn them.  :)

I would give it a four. There was some high points (Project Natal and Modern Warfare 2) and there was some low points (Shadow Complex and Halo: ODST just didn't seem impressive to me).

MGS

4.5, Microsoft had a murderer's row of games lined up.  MW2, Forza 3, Alan Wake, Splinter Cell, those games all looked awesome.  No filler montage videos of awful games, just kickass title after kickass title.  The reason it's not a 5 is Beatles Rock Band.  I hate rhythm games with a burning passion.

Not historical, but i dont think they could have done much better. It was a packed presentation

5. No graphs or PR speak. Just straight up games for the most part.

It was great when they showed all of the exclusives (can't wait for Crackdown2 Left 4 Dead 2 and Alan Wake)
but then the NATAL thing came and I was like................This is gay.
But the best was Beatles Rock Band

Five stars - no bullshit and just announcements and games.  Hell I didn't even care about some of the stuff but it kept moving and was interesting at least.  And that motion camera looked surprisingly cool.

3 Stars, just because Project Natal is fail.

3 or 4.  They took waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to long for The Beatles: Rock Band.  Also, where was the XBLA stuff?  Only only got to see 2 XBLA games.  Metal Gear was an expected announcement.  Anyways in the end, it was solid.

I gave it 4.  It was pretty good.  Lots of game trailers, on stage demos, some hard dates, etc... We got to see "Project Natal", although if that was the big Lionhead reveal I am very disappointed.  I wanted an actual game.  One surprise for me though was the lack of Rare.  Where was Rare?  Did I miss them? 

Of course, I may be being a bit generous to Microsoft right now having just watched the embarrassment that was Ubisoft's conference. 

3 stars.

Project Natal is just... I don't know.  It could be a cash cow or a total flop depending on whether the casual crowd will fall for it.  Other than that, Left 4 Dead 2 and Crackdown 2 were a surprise to me, but the rest was basically old news or meh.

And Milo... creepy.

I give a "five" because there was a massive quantity of pleasing announcements for me. Alan Wake, Crackdown 2, Splinter Cell Conviction and The Beatles: Rock Band all look great, and there are cool new features for Xbox Live and new hardware (Natal) that looks promising. I really, really liked it.  A big improvement over last year, for sure.

ODST looked like a large improvement from the atrocious Halo3 single-player campaign. Alan Wake looked "okay". MW2 looked like a buy-1 purchase, even if it's the same as CoD4. No graphs or that other casual shit. The whole conference was great, imo.

I give it 3 stars. The only 360 exclusives they showed that interested me are Crackdown 2 and Alan Wake. The project Natal seemed kind of cool but I would probably get bored of it pretty quick. Also I was waiting the entire time for Rare to announce their new game but nothing happened

After taking the last big exclusve Sony franchise I would say Microsoft feel pretty damn confident of beating them this generation.
The games and features they showed off were impressive to see as a gamer.

Now they are going after Nintendo with all the facebook, twitter, sky, netflix, instant 1080p movie downloads and last.fm. That should win the casuals over, with Natal, Milo etc. We could see them finishing first this generation!

Plenty of relatively short demos, NATAL, 4 star stuff I think.

5. Damn good show

5

4/5. I liked the focus on games as opposed to numbers, but there wasn't enough I was interested in. I could have done without the social networking stuff and Natal and more in-game trailers.

I think it was a pretty awesome show for the most part, but a few blunders make it a 4 out of 5 for moi. I will say that it just barely missed that "perfect" 5/5 score. It makes me very excited to see how Nintendo and Sony will react to the MS press conference.

5. This may be the first time a buy a splinter cell game, I like the new focus on using stealth to help you take dudes out rather than hide and I always hated that "you can't kill any guards on this level but they will still shoot to kill" crap. I was liked Alan Wake, it looked like alone in the dark without the gimmicky stuff that got in the way in that game, the story they hinted at could be interesting as well. Crackdown 2 is a sequel to crackdown, that's awesome, Halo and MW2 both looked great as well (but were not as big as a surprise because we had already seen stuff about them). 

Project Natal looked cool, the tech seemed very good. Seeing as how they had a whole bunch of core gamer stuff already there I don't mind that they started to work on Project Natal, if it turns out crap i just won't buy it and keep playing games as i do now, if it works great, i'll give it a shot, it might work well for RTS games and you can't say Peter isn't trying something new, I don't think i want to hang out with milo but it would be cool if I could interview a serial killer in a detective game. The facebook and twitter stuff seemed ok.
 

3/5, stupid bullshit like Facebook and Gears of Metroid messed with it, and Natal is being made by Mplyneux
