Oh dear, it shows that people with a high amount of bias for or against game systems shouldn't set themselves up as gaming industry pundits.

He should save his effusive predictions for Nintendo systems.

What MS showed at E3 '09 isn't coming out just like Malstrom said.

Does anyone here think that the E3 '10 demo of Kinect was better than the '09 demonstration? Really?

Did everyone seriously think Kinect was going to do what we saw at '09? Even after they removed it's dedicated processor?

No, of course not.

"release it quietly with most of its features stripped away"

Although you think you know everybodies answers by answering them yourself. In this case you are wrong.

I think this one was much better, why? Well because I got to see a product that i can actually go "hmm, i will play that soon, this is what this game is going to be like." etc. Where as in 09 it could have changed to ANYTHING, which lets be honest that is what happens in a year in advance.

I wasnt even nearly upset about what i saw, nothing has come bad, still somewhat confused about the girl changing clothes in an old kinect demo... BUT Milo is still an opportunity, so you should probably not assume the unit is not going to do what you think...

I wondered how long it would be before somebody plucked that statement out. From what I have seen "Most" features remain. If that was his get out of jail free card it sucked.

He brought up the PS3 of all things there. It lost 2 USB ports, 2 Ethernet ports and an HDMI port. That's hardly "most of its features stripped away".

And if it releases, Microsoft will still have a business plan, won't they?

An attempt at a "get out of jail free card", as you said.
