Microsoft has some very smart marketing people without doubt.

I just started to check out Netflix streaming on Windows Media Center. I like the interface a lot, but the video quality is poor vs. streaming via my IE web browser. Any ideas why this is? There is a noticeable difference that makes Windows Media Center a poor alternative.

Humm, never thought of sharing Achievements on Facebook. So long as they aren’t a constant stream of spam for every achievement. I like the idea of my gamer card some how being added into my Facebook profile.

To me, the biggest announcements were after the show, the full game download and the ability to purchase them with credit cards instead of those ridiculous Microsoft Points. See my post on this topic here:

Definitely an interesting and perhaps inevitable direction. We’ll see how well it translates to the 10′ interface… Sharing scores/achievements on Facebook, at the very least, would be cool.

Very curious to see Sony’s response this week (smaller PS3, lame PSP Go?), though I’m packing for a work trip tonight and will most of the remaining news.

Hey you read my mind, Dave! (See my second ‘nologizer post regarding Xbox 360 as hangout)
