June 1, 2009 - At Microsoft's show-opening E3 2009 press conference at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, the company went huge, showcasing two Halo games, the long-awaited action/thriller Alan Wake, Forza 3, and multiple third-party exclusives, including Splinter Cell: Conviction.

And on top of that, Microsoft made the bombshell announcement that a Metal Gear game would finally be coming to Xbox 360. And we haven't even touched on Natal, Microsoft's new motion-sensitive control scheme. Even Peter Molyneux popped up to show some stunning footage of the new tech in action. So did the company do enough to convince gamers that 2009 and 2010 are going to be great years for Xbox 360 gamers?

We gathered together the IGN Xbox 360 Team to talk about the highlights of Microsoft's killer E3 press conference and to decide what moments shone brightest in an impressive hour and a half of announcements, demos and first-look trailers.....

They loved the conference and called it the best MS conference which I agree. I really like this comment: "Here's how you know Microsoft had a great press conference. Halo 3: ODST was demoed and Halo: Reach was announced. And neither were the talk of the show. "

It really was the most memorable conference I have seen to date. This is one hell of a great way to kick off E3. Heck, I was happy when they reached the true demo for Alan Wake!
