Montana will show up to anything as long as you lay out the cash. Didn't he skip out on some SB, think it was Pats/Rams, because the NFL wasn't kicking in $. Dude sells sketchers.

Smartglass could be cool, MS mobile hardware is largely irrelevant though.

They'll have a huge push this fall with Windows 8. It could be cool but a lot of it looked like Kinect would be required and fuck that shit.

The Microsoft conference was one of the worst I've watched in years. It's E3 - where the fuck are the games? UGH. The Halo 4 demo was decent and Tomb Raider looked good but Splinter Cell was garbage. Remember when Splinter Cell was about stealth? Yeah, neither do I.

The lag during the Madden demo was hilarious too.

SET HIKE!

Didn't watch the conference, but as far as I can tell:

1) basically none of the games MS showed are interesting to me.
2) the prospect of being able to watch sports in HD on my 360 without needing a TV subscription is legitimately exciting. Can't wait to see how they eff it up!
3) I expect both MS and Nintendo to fail horrendously, but I can't wait for the future where I can auto-sync what I'm watching on TV to my laptop/phone while I'm away in the kitchen
ok, more likely the bathroom
, then go back to normal when I return.

It's basically we can have a $80m no stealth/no interactivity SC or we can have no SC. They weren't making the money they needed to off the stealth. I laughed when Rubin was talking about THQ finding the middle between blockbuster and iPad game. The middle is dead

There's no doubt that part of the issue is that the next generation of consoles is coming but even by that barometer I was stunned by how completely bereft of games and EFFORT there was at that conference. When the South Park guys had to save your conference - well....

Yeah and I'd prefer none than yet another Call of Duty/Michael Bay action movie military shooter. The demo started well enough with a nice stealth kill and then BOOM. Explosions and gun fire everywhere. I remember when that was FAILURE mode in Splinter Cell. If you got to that point you know you had fucked up. Now it's the actual gameplay? UGH.

Survival Horror is dead. God Bless Amnesia and the PC for having smaller titles to bring it back to life from time to time. I'll even give the most recent Silent Hill a nod. It was a mess technically but at least it was an actual survival horror game.

Ubi games, the goal is to look cool. I'm serious. You can't actually die in AC or SC as far as I can tell. Everything is about being a badass, and when you don't look like a badass, that is the unstated fail state.

I loved R63 and Chaos Theory but that Ubi is gone. It might just be we're too old. The 20 year old of 2012 likes no fail Fisher and auto-tuned Usher

Spike.

Pitchfork was doing an interview and they were showing footage.

Haven't seen anything on the game since the GI spread.

Looks nice visually, combat was intense.

Seriously though, I don't play Halo multiplayer so I can't comment on that front. I enjoyed the campaign

Yep. Worst multiplayer maps in a game since... ever.

Check out my spoiler above.:)

Colonial Marines is being streamed on Gametrailers. The animation in the game looks pretty poor. The aliens look horribly stilted, etc.
