E3 Recap: Microsoft Press Conference

Hey gamers, Chris_sez here with some recap about the Microsoft Press Conference.  Overall, this was amazing, but it did have some boring parts to it.  It was a great two hours watching about the new games on the Xbox 360, the improved use of the Kinect voice commands, and what we can expect for the Xbox 360.  Just to tell y'all, all the games talked about during the press conference won't be mentioned in this article (I missed a little bit of this).  Time to end this introduction, and jump into this recap.


Splinter Cell Blacklist


I really enjoyed the game play of this game so far, and I love how they were able to add the Kinect in this game by certain voice commands.  Graphics are superb and on point, and this game has great dynamics for combat, shooting, and stating hidden.  Splinter Cell Blacklist will be out Spring 2013.

FIFA 13 & Madden 13


With FIFA 13, use of the Kinect is used for voice commands for substitutions, and reactions to the referee's calls.  Yes, you can now swear at the referee...

On Madden 13, Kinect voice control is used for calling plays and changing plays (streaks, audibles, etc.)  The was a little lag once the ball was hiked,  which can make some players angry, but that's the only thing I saw wrong.  Madden 13 comes out August 28, 2012.

For the XBOX 360, voice commands for entertainment is better; there is voice search by genre and there are more languages (ME GUSTA!!!!).  HBOGo, Xfinity by Comcast, and BBC UK will be on the XBOX 360.  Also, the NBA, NHL (next year), and 24/7 ESPN (ESPN, ESPN 2, ESPN 3, and ESPN U) will be on the XBOX 360.  Truly outstanding.  Also, Internet Explorer will be on the XBOX 360.

Dance Central 3


Be ready to dougie and hustle in this game.  R&B singer Usher had a part in the choreography of this game.

Resident Evil 6


Well, this game explains itself.  It is BEYOND AMAZING!!!! The gameplay made me feel like it was an action/thriller movie, and if I had played any of the Resident Evil games or had a next-gen system, I would save my money on this system!!!

Well this ends our recap of the Microsoft Press Conference, and I know already that we missed some games, but you can re-watch the Microsoft Press Conference on GameSpot.  Also, we'll be doing recaps for Sony and Nintendo.  I'm Chris_sez, and I hope everyone enjoys the rest of E3.
