Microsoft's E3 Press Conference Rundown
The big news was the motion sensor, Natal, which is a camera and a sensor bar that just plugs directly into the 360. Natal recognizes faces, body movements, objects, and even voices in order to integrate the player into the gaming environment. You can even browse the NXE using hand controls as in the movie Minority Report. Natal will automatically pick up who is in front of it and log that person into Xbox LIVE.
The video store will now be Zune-branded with 1080p instant-on streaming content in 18 countries. There will also be Facebook, Twitter and Last.FM integration.
