Microsoft’s Plan to rock at E3

Well, haven’t we all been waiting for this bit of news? We just reported some time back that the HD-DVD Player for the 360 will be shown at E3. There’s a heck of a lot more that you might be looking at actually. Some guy, reported to work at Microsoft, has released this unconfirmed info at a Spanish Forum. Luckily for us, ‘HardKnock’ at Beyond3D forums has translated it for us non-spanish folks.

You’d be naive to believe all of it. But, even if half of these things are true, you’d be looking at Microsoft to walk all over Sony at E3.
