MS 360 conference E3 (streaming link inside)

The ps3 is stunning. The XBOX 360 just seems to primitive in comparison.
In what respect? Microsoft looks to be doing a great job of using Live! and the Xbox's to truly function as a digital media/entertainment server. i didn't get the whole bit of how they're going to attract the VelocityGirls of the world, but including the simple card and puzzle games is a great start. So far, the Xbox 360 hardware features are impressing me far more than the games.

This low stream is ridiculous, rebuffering every five seconds. i'll pick this up tomorrow or whenever the recorded stream is posted.
 
What bothers me about the presentation is that with all the online interactivity, I don't see how the Xbox 360 is any different than a PC minus a keyboard and web browser.

So is sharing music/video still media center exclusive?

No. You just get more (namely DVR functionality) from a Media Center. You'll be able to pull media files (at least audio and pics, I'd assume video also) from XP. Same thing with your MP3 player.
 
I'm pretty sure it's not a Media Center... He said it connects to a media center to stream content from it, so it's a Media Center Extender. He's just making it look like it does it by itself. Kinda trying to trick you like he said it was BC for the TOP Xbox games.
 
1) This stream ONLY works for PR bullshit babble, and ONLY craps out when anything of even the slightest bit of importance is mentioned.

2) Temporarily suspended again.

Grumble, grumble

so it does have TIVO capabilities?

No, you have to buy a PC with Windows Media Center Edition. You record your programs on your PC and play it back with Windows Media Center Extender on the Xbox 360. You can already do this with the Xbox 1.

Great for those of us with Macs. MS really doesn't want me to buy a 360 it seems. :/
 
Of course, the coolest looking faceplate we've seen so far has to be the limited edition one. eBay!
