The showing Kinect looked cool. I can see what Microsoft is going for with the presentation. I think they may be onto something and can see how what they have is a casual gamer's magnet (ESPN was a plus). They showed some of the top core gamer stuff also at the beginning. This being said, however, I count there being a bunch of fail in the press conference. Ok, maybe you evaluate the entire E3 and announcements, but I see here as fail:
* The announce the new system, but no price cut on it. This was a fail from the press conference. Fortunately there was some sort of price cut announced afterwords.
* No mention of anything over Arcade, Indie Games, or Game Room. This is a fail for me, particularly regarding Game Room.
* No sign shown for any core gaming using Kinect, ALTHOUGH I have this feeling that Rising is likely to use Kinect, for some reason.
* WAY too much Kinect stuff shown. Well, on a personal level, and in the mind of what would be for core gamers.
* No mention of price of Kinect.
As for the rest, well any fail is a fail because I can't remember it.
