oh... community games.. when will those launch?

I'm not a big Tekken fan but I do have Hori sticks for my 360 so will give it a try..

Final build of NXE coming up...

From first page:

Most recent:
20:52 -- Garnett: And that's all folks. Schappert has said thank you and good bye. We have a few more pics coming for you in just a sec.

20:51 -- Garnett: So, all-new campaign, all-new hero. Almost sounds more like Halo 3.5.

20:50 -- Garnett: HALO 3 RECON. Fall 2009. So it's not technically the Chief, but rather an ODST Marine. Will also include new multiplayer maps.

20:49 -- Garnett: Massive devastation of the city. And from a pod emerges -- the Chief.

20:48 -- Garnett: Second half of the trailer coming on screen now.

20:47 -- Garnett: On Halo 3: "We aren't quite done yet."

20:46 -- Garnett: After a brief cinematic we've moved into the demo. Pretty standard stuff right up to now, but he just teased the third faction: the Flood. Looks like (as you might expect) it will share a lot in common with the Zergs in StarCraft.

20:40 -- Garnett: Crossing my fingers, they're going to talk about what the future holds for Halo franchise games. Graeme Devine is up now to show off the campaing mode of Halo Wars.

20:39 -- Garnett: New Xbox Live Experience launches November 19 globally.

20:37 -- Garnett: For those concerned about themes, old ones will still work, they become a sort of stage backdrop on the different screens. New themes include 3D elements.

20:35 -- Garnett: Stealth announcement of Meteos Wars coming to Live while showing off the different panels that now take the place of the old blades.

20:34 -- Garnett: After fooling around in the menus to show their depth -- each area typically offers two to three pages of pieces with nine items on each -- he's used a photo mode to make his gamer pic from a headshot of the avatar.

20:32 -- Garnett: He's starting naturally with creating an avatar and showing off how much room for customization it offers.

20:31 -- Garnett: Schappert is now moving on to talk about Live. He's started by revealing that they are now up to 14 million Live users. The fall Live release is "done" and he's going to demo the real, final version.

20:30 -- Garnett: That's a pretty strong lineup of classics.

20:26 -- Garnett: New arcade games are coming to Live arcade: Space Invaders Extreme. Arkanoid Live, with coop and versus modes

20:25 -- Garnett: Note that the word "exclusive" has NOT been used, but I think you definitely can consider it another strong move for 360 to secure that they get these titles that formerly were key PlayStation exclusives.

20:23 -- Garnett: Yeah, you heard me correctly, Tekken 6, Xbox 360, fall 2009.

20:22 -- Garnett: Ninety-Nine Nights 2 is coming exclusively to 360, and now there's another surprise announcement.

20:21 -- Garnett: Now they're showing RE5 with far more than we've seen before. No, it's not all in a dusty village. They're fighting a boss who reminds me a lot of the Tyrant from 3 n some sort of secret lab. The trailer ended with a shot of Jill Valentine's tombstone! Check out the new RE5 trailer for yourself right here.

20:19 -- Garnett:When you get to see the video check out the weapon and spell effects during battle. The world map parts, particularly when he's running into the city, had an undeniable Final Fantasy feel to them.

20:15 -- Garnett: Just saw the first bits of in-game and it looks good. Game will debut 2/19 in Japan; 3/3 in North America.

20:13 -- Garnett: Oh shit, the Star Ocean CG is hot.

20:12 -- Garnett: Yay, About to show the Star Ocean trailer!!!

20:10 -- Garnett: The flow of this morning's keynotes is really quite remarkable. We started with a dissection of the changing of the guard in games. The panel spoke to how thinking globally presents a number of challenges ranging far beyond simply the development to areas such as srt design and marketing. And now Schappert is making what amounts to a sales pitch for the 360 as a new place for Japanese devs to move forward

20:07 -- Garnett: And now John Schappert has taken the stage promoting that Last Remnant makes its exclusive premier on 360 and is indicative of the 360 development emphasis here.

20:06 -- Garnett: And we're back. This intermission is much more exciting with a trailer for Last Remnant being shown.

14 million Xbox Live members...

and just for kicks, if all 14 million where gold members paying $49.99/year then MS would be making $700 million/year...

I'm guessing only half are gold members.. so say only $ 350 million for MS

Hope that isn't included in their gaming division, because if it is thats keeping them afloat big time, seeing as how they barely make profit.

able to buy content on web to d/l to 360... not bad if you like to shop from work.. :)

XBLA is pulling a PSN--will now be browsable from PC.

yeah they always include silver members when reporting Xbox Live members
