    It's been a very nice show and Microsoft's press conference was filled with so much gaming goodness. I can't wait to play Halo: Reach next year and Halo 3: ODST later this years.

    Best year of E3 yet. Sony unveiled some incredible games along with some amazing new motion controller. MS was quite good too with the showing of Project Natal, but hopefully this plays as well as it looks...
