Microsoft's E3 Press Conference: Any Surprises Left? [Update 2]

As the clock ticks inexorably toward Microsoft's big E3 press conference the biggest question remains: did every secret get spilled? 

It seems the past days and weeks have been filled with leaks, squeaks, and outright floods of information covering all the aces up Microsoft's sleeve.  But might there be some nugget undiscovered?  For just that reason I will be here ready to pounce on any information exiting their mouths (and video streams) relating to XBLA and will report it as fast as possible here in this post.  Will there be a release date for community games?  A surprise release this week?  New game announcements?  Absolutely nothing interesting?We'll know soon.

I'll keep things brief and to the point and do more thorough stories on individual topics as the days go on.  So sit back and enjoy.  Everything interesting will appear after the break.

  • [Update 1] The Story So Far...
  • Uno Rush announced featuring a seamless slide from your "live party" into the game.
  • Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 coming next month exclusively to XBLA.  (And I saw 4 player co-op in there!)
  • Galaga Legions announced from NamcoBandai.  A true sequel to Galaga.  Also exclusive to XBLA and coming next month.
  • Portal: Still Alive announced featuring new levels and coming Fall 2008.
  • South Park game announced for XBLA
  • Community Games coming in the fall featuring Colosseum, Hot Potato, and Word Soup.
  • [Update 2] Original Banjo Kazooie coming to XBLA.
