Count me underwhelmed. All it had was a bunch of trailers that I've basically already seen, some ridiculous statistics I saw through immediately, and a laughably crappy new version of the 360.
The trailers'game demos ranged from bad (Assassin's Creed) to really cool (CoD4). Overall not the tour de force for the "greatest holiday lineup of any system in history" I expected. I'm not saying the games won't turn out to be great but MS did a terrible job of showing it. The major let down for me was the too short clip of RE5. I want more for a game that we haven't seen or heard about in 2 years.
Nothing really new which is the problem with a) relying on 3rd party support (not much info you can directly control), and b) releasing info on a regular basis. I have to give MS a D here. They say "we're #1" and "look at all these awesome games" every day of the year. A major conference like this deserves something more showy. Something like a tease about some major plot twist in Halo 3, or an extended trailer for a highly anticipated game no one has heard about in 2 years, or major new 1st or 3rd party exclusive heading to the 360.
