Microsoft's E3 2009 press conference has just wrapped up and it's safe to say it came out swinging. Of the avalanche of announcements that were revealed, a few stood out as being the best in show.
The Hideo Kojima mystery has finally been solved as he will be bringing a brand new Metal Gear game to the Xbox 360. Metal Gear: Rising will star Raiden and carries the tagline Lightning Bolt Action.
Another big announcement was Microsoft's experiment called Project Natal. Project Natal uses a sensor that replaces the Xbox 360 controller. Natal can recognize your voice, face and body movements that are then shown on your television screen. The Xbox 360 dashboard will also be controllable through Natal. Big names including Steven Spielberg and Peter Molyneux came out on stage to show their support for Project Natal.
Project Natal won't be shipping in 2009 according to Kuto Tsunoda, the creative director of Project Natal during a television interview with G4. Tsunoda also took a shot at the Wii by saying, “This isn't a game where you wind up on the sofa using preset waggle commands.”
Of course there were a lot of other announcements and we've summed it up for you below.
