I made my way into the XBOX VIP lounge, what a nice friggin setup. I was lucky enough to sit in on some Xbox 360 presentations. The new features of Live are exactly what I'm looking for, as an avid user, they seem to know exactly what I want.
I was lucky enough to have a 5 minute 1-on-1 w/ J Allard. I told him about how his GDC talk has greatly influenced my thesis direction. He seemed really cool, honest, and genuine. I look forward to his feedback on my thesis.
