preGAME 03: X10 Showcase
On this week's preGAME, we showcase the highlight's of Microsoft's X10 conference in San Francisco. We'll watch first-look trailers, game footage, and all the special announcements from the show.
This week on preGAME, hosts Jeff Bakalar and Mark Licea take a look back at all of the big announcements from last week's Microsoft X10 conference in San Francisco. Today's show is chock-full of debut trailers, announcements, and first look game play video of some of 2010's most anticipated Xbox 360-centric games.
But before we get into the big announcements, we'll chat about the death of local multiplayer. Long gone are the days of local four-player split screen action like Goldeneye 64. Now more than ever, game developers are overlooking the game play element that defined the "party game." Why is this upsetting trend so popular? And why do game developers choose to leave it out?
All this plus the week's headlines and releases on preGAME!
