I kid I kid...tbh as cool as the concept is, didn't they say it's all about recognizing certain key words? or has there been an update to that I missed? don't get me wrong, I think the idea itself is amazing...but i have doubts that it can really live up to the expectations another great reason why this years E3 gonna be KICK ASS! :D

ugh, milo . . . I had hoped he fell into a ditch somewhere, never to be heard from again, but here he is. Can't they use a better avatar . . . something not so creepy, perhaps.

When I saw Milo at last E3 I thought it was amazing. Having a virtual kid to hang with is sorta cool. I think their are plenty of casual applications for a virtual boy. Think a second about old folks homes where the people don't get visitors and are dying for some attention or hospitals where patients are marooned for weeks, months at a time.

Nintendo made content that could be used by non-gamers and I think Milo does what Nintendon't. I can already imagine how much joy an old lady or man might get out of having a virtual friend. Or how about an inmate serving a 20-year sentence with nobody to talk too (In a good sense).Or how about the poor bullied kid who's self esteem is in the shitter and could use every friend he can get? Or lastly what about the parent who's kids have grown up and left the house, a parent who misses having a kid.

Honestly Milo has alot of applications for the non-gamer which is the fasted growing segment of gamers (Ironically) fact is even myself as a gamer am exited as to the prospects of Milo.

Milo should replace NXE. I'd love to walk in and say 'Oi Milo! Get off your ass and fire up Halo 3 you lazy bastard."

Yes, a real boy named Milo will be showing up at E3.  This will then lead to a rumor that the technology in the Milo demo last year was one to one character mapping to a person, so that when you going cam, Natal captures fully what you are doing as an Avatar the other people see!

Ugh, that was originally intended as a shot at the Milo demo, but that technology DOES sound cool, if they ever implement it.
