Moto GP is downloading... so stoked on this...

I'll pick up the Rainbow Six: Vegas trailer as well

There's also a on the show floor tour of E3 or something, as well as an edited and pretty much crappy version of the press release.

Spiderman 3 trailer is on there. Activision made it short, apparently.

Also, the Shadowrun behind the scenes footage.

Can someone convert one of those sit-on Super Hang-On motorcycles to use a USB port? That's how I want to play Moto GP!

[JG_ZERO]

good idea!

Where is the new XBOX Live Arcade content? And UNO doesn't count. I'm talking SF2 and Paperboy. Are these games even at E3?

[DoubleUranium]

This just made this the longest work day of all time. I've itching to get home and try the MotoGP demo. If they were particularly clever about timing, Shanghai would be one of the included tracks.

Why doesn't UNO count? I know for the "hardcore" it doesn't count, but believe me, my wife's REALLY HAPPY with the 360 now and I'll bet it eclipses the almight Geometry Wars in sales, once people know it's there! :p

I'm talking about the games that were previously announced, i.e. SF2, Tapper, Paperboy, etc. Card games, while fun, are not what is getting me excited about XLA.

[phantomhitman]

they were never said to be released this week. They showed working versions of frogger, sf2, mk3, and pac man at e3 so they are not too far away. The weekly lineup of downloads is already on the xbox site, I do not think there are any more live arcade games coming out this week.

[Vermillion]

When is live getting Lumines?

[dena miscreant]

Dunno...

MOTO GP 06 wows me in every department except the Crowd. They don't have much life in them.

They weren't joking about photorealism. It looks really damn good.

[phantomhitman]

sweeetttttt, countdown 1 hour to end of work and playtime begins

[bapenguin]

Are the Gold and Silver themes free?

[johnperkins21]

Are the Gold and Silver themes free?

The pictures were, so I'm making an "ass" of "u" and "me" and saying yes.

[EGO]

Lumines for Live? In all of this E3 noise, did i mis that!?!?

When is that coming out?

[dena miscreant]

No release date set. I just submitted news for today's content.

Check out the Crackdown Backstage Pass

If you missed them:

Moto GP 3 demo on Live is really good. I love how THQ demos the Moto GP series on Live. I remember Moto GP demo from the original Xbox Live CD.

That might have been my favorite playable demo of all time.
