I dunno, there didn't seem to be a kill count in the HUD, which also somewhat confused me.

I *think* that, by dealing damage, you fill up your 'super' meter. Once it's level 1, you can use it, or save it up to get to level 2 or 3, which are stronger. Then, you use your super to get kills.

zzzt

The thing is, no (or very few) games are actually going to REQUIRE the second analog, at least initially. There is therefore no urgent need to release a model with it built in. At least, that's how I see it ^^ you might be waiting a couple of years.

Not sure they'll be invited onto the stage at another Microsoft event....

Splinter Cell: Modern Payne?

No, it's not happening. Also, they're not adding a second analog stick.

I haven't played Halo on a 360. But any game that requires you to do that is badly designed. That's what triggers are for.

This was the only good part of the entire presentation.

Pah. Just wait until the xBox 3. Microsoft will move both analog sticks to the left, the D-Pad to the middle, the start/select buttons and triggers to the right and the face buttons to the back!

I'm pretty sure I have never once in my life used a right analogue stick and face buttons at the same time. That's difficult/uncomfortable no matter what the layout is.

Pretty much. As long as I don't have to have random Miis and speech bubbles constantly popping up while I'm PLAYING GAMES, though, they can add whatever stupid features they want.

Seriously. At least give me some clothes/accessories.

Yawn. Boring.

Well, it's a bit far, but I'd sure as hell watch the video.

Hehe, PC

I've played all those great AAA titles on my PC, and some that you never got. My favourite games of last year were Amnesia: TDD and Serious Sam 3. I've bought maybe 2 console games in the last 2 years.

It would just be nice for things like zooming/rotating, and could also be great for various in-game controls. I'm not saying it's absolutely necessary, but if you're already giving me a tablet, why make me use buttons for those kinds of actions?

"The sliders are now thumbsticks that can be pushed down."

Not sure where you get your facts about where more games are released, but considering that probably 90% of all games that get released are rubbish (especially since we got the Wii/PSMove/Kinekt), it really doesn't mean much.
