Re: E3

Man, I loved it.

Jago was the man, I don't know who anyeone else used, but Jago ruled. There was an ice guy too...

Glaicus...

I'm sorry, it was SNES before it was 64.

Wow nice graphics for such and old game. I may have to give this game a look when it's released on the 360. I hope they release Banjo Kazooie man I loved that game on the N64.

I could kick ANYONE'S *** on KI1 with Fulgore. ANYONE.

I used to play that game on Xband ALL.THE.TIME. I was pretty much undefeated with Fulgore.

Glacius was my second best guy... Jago was good too, but I couldn't "master" him, plus I could beat him easily with Fulgore...

Re: E3

the SNES version never matched up to the quality of the arcade version though... but still classic nonetheless.

Re: E3

Man, I LOVED that SNES version.. .I'm telling you, that, with X-band (and NBA Jam:TE and MK2) and I was in complete gaming heaven at the time!

Re: E3

I for one can't wait for E3. I just hope Ps3 shows off because next month is the month I finally choose a next Gen console. I don't have funds for 2 or barely funds for 1 but I will have one. If Ps3 doesn't show me anything special that blows away the 360 I will have the 360.... IF Ps3 looks to be better then the 360 then I won't have next=gen goodness until November.

They say the info comes from a guy that works at Microsoft.

• Xbox 360 Premium Pack price is going to drop $100 in October.
• Xbox 360 Core Pack price is going to drop $80 in October
• Gears of War is going to be released the last week of October with an huge marketing campaign at global scale.
• HD-DVD for the next month of September. Add-on that you can connect to the USB 2.0 port. It is going to be priced for $100
• New HardDisk Drive with 100GB of storage, price and date not specified.
• Webcam "My Eye on you", for the month of September with a price of $50 without game and $75 with a game.
• Xbox Backward compatibility list is going to be updated in June with 50 new titles
• The capacity of the Xbox Live Servers is going to be 5 times more than the actual servers
• Halo 3 is going to be in the market the next month of March, in E3 we are going to see the first videos.
• Possibility of an "urban game" that could be GTA. Microsoft is working on it and this isn´t a joke.
• A possible price drop in Xbox Live Gold or it is going to be free because they are going to get money with promotional advices.
• From the next month of October we are going to change some records in some games for "MSpoints".
• Paramount Pictures and Microsoft has anounced an agreement where Paramount is going to provide HD content to Xbox Live.
• NBC has signed with Microsoft for the possibility of see the online tournaments like an sports live retransmisión.
• Aliance between Epic and Microsoft for exclusive content in Xbox Live.
• Creation of a Dashboard for kids.
• A new service in june: Download and play.
• Rare is working in Kameo 2 since before the release of Kameo. Is going to come before than expected.
• MS is working for an upgraded friend list (until 200 contacts)
• Virtual Console with Sega games before the next month of October
• An spectacular upgrade in the number of Xbox Live Arcade games in the next months.
• New look for Dashboard.

Again grain of salt.

Most of it sounds plausible though, and Microsoft is really bad at keeping things under wraps.

If some of this is true MS could steal alot of thunder from both Ninty and Sony. A 360 price drop of $100, free Xbox Live Gold and watch Live Sports Telecast....wow !

Re: E3

If that is the case and the PS3 is $500 then I would probably pay $300 and get the Premium 360.

[RockyTop1]

Re: E3

dear God, if half of those things come true...50 BC titles in June, price drops, Sega games, etc etc. Holy crap this will be HUGE if they pull this off.

[luv_mist]

Re: E3

The BC list having 50 titles seems so small. If a few of those things come to be though, OH MY GOODNESS IT'S OFFICIALLY OVER!! Free XBOX Live?? I can only hope for that. If the system reduces to $300, I'm getting another one too. Ironically, thought the HD would be more than $100. That's a relief I guess. And the HDD, finally is manning up.

From the next month of October we are going to change some records in some games for "MSpoints".

What exactl does that mean?? I'm very curious. I hope that they end up making it sensible on the real. And those different agreements and contracts are just fantastic. Of course, grain of salt on the real though. Good find, but only will the joy of E3 let us know. Oh I'm hoping

Some of those are plausible but others like the premium pack dropping $100 doesn't seem true. It might drop but it definetely won't be that big of a drop.

Re: E3

The $100 drop may be much more likely in Japan.
