Really impressed with how Xbox live is integrated into Vista so you can send invites to ya mates who may be working on the PC and your 360 gamercard pops up on there screen asking if they want to play :cool:

Yeah it does look amazing. So basically we have live for PC, 360 , mobile phones all cross platfrom OMG! :D

Live Anywhere with Vista

Live incoorporated into MSN

cool new update to live, shows whether they're on the 360, or on Windows, also shows what they're doing, On messenger or just idle in Windows Vista.

Then the ability to send a message to his desktop from the 360 to alert him if you wanna play, and vice versa, send a message from the desktop to the 360 user asking him to get on msn

if the game is on vista and 360, ability to mix platforms online. So you could have a game of pc and 360 users.

Xbox live and marketplace for mobiles that can support the software

That was all supposed to be in for the 360 launch last year :(
 
OOOO finished with the halo 3 trailer, looked good

and lmao at the end bit, the voice that just got cut off, sounded like a woman near the camera

she said "GET YOUR HAND O" then got cut off, blatantly some pervy old man copped a feel when it went dark :p

a lot of it can be done just now, just need a web browser lol

Yeah I know, I just remember reading a big preview of the 360 and they focused on the MSN/Windows/Live integration being a massive part of the 360 'lifestyle' or whatever and then it's taken half a year to turn up.
 
Just finished watching the Live (recorded) stream - was a little choppy in places but apart from that played fine.

Well, all I can say is this, it's going to be one exspensive future :D!!

I've most definately added a few more titles to pre-order list this year and next. Halo 3 has been on pre-order for ages though so I'm ahead of the game by a mile (and at £19.99 it's even better :D).

I haven't seen the Nintendo or Sony E3 shows yet, but so far I can say that Microsoft have certainly put on a good show. Plenty to please a wide audience of gamers.

The Vista/360/Mobile joint platform sounds great in theory, will probably (hopefully) be easy to operate in practice, but will also probably be damn exspensive to piece together if you are "must have" kind of person.

Great news all round :D
 
I dont mind them delaying it if it means they get it right first time.

Would hate for it to be rushed then need loads of updates ala XP :p
