This will bring you to the waiting screen for, in just a little less than an hour, the Microsoft press conference about their upcoming console. Thought I'd tip you guys off Enjoy the elevator music.

7:30 PST
8:30 CST
9:30 EST

Oops on crack. 54 minutes.

 

[lePobz]

3:30am for us brits.... damn, might as well stay up and watch it.

/me goes for a coffee or three

 

[gh0st]

What program would I use to open that? Media Player Classic and Windows Media Player don't seem to like it.

I'd recommend getting WMP 9 or 10... its working fine for me.

 

[gh0st]

Quick download as many codecs as you can D:

 

[Reginald]

I'm using version 10. I hate it (hence the Media Player Classic), but no dice.

Same here. Tell me which codec works. I'm a lazy bastard.

 

[gh0st]

http://www.divx-digest.com/software/acemega_codec.html If Ace doesnt have it, nothing will. I use it and have never encountered a video I cant watch.

 

[short recoil]

hmmmmm, i stayed up to 5am last night, might as well do the same again!

i have ummmmmm.........nothing, i'll have to keep myself awake with that annoying music that's playing on the live feed vid!
It's ****ing repeating and annoying but i can't be bothered to turn the speakers down or close the player!

 

[Alan Freeman]

[gh0st]

yes, it is.

 

[gh0st]

Nope, new codecs don't work. Ah well, I'll get the non-live version when it appears.

[DiSTuRbEd]

No. 20 minutes. No.. I lied, something just came on so you can actually see stuff now.

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

THANK YOU! I am glad I got home just intime for this.

 

[short recoil]

[gh0st]

[OCybrManO]

EDIT: now my player has conked out!

Go back to the link in the first post and try again. That fixed it for me.

 

[Dalamari]

9:13 CST, still nothing

 

[gh0st]

9:13 CST, still nothing

The actual program doesnt start for 15 minutes, but the live feed started.

 

[FictiousWill]

Is there a lower bandwidth stream? I'm back home and dsl is being bitchy.

edit: nvm it's streaming well now. fancy theatre.

 

[Dalamari]

It's running like shat right now, very laggy

 

[gh0st]

Lowband: http://www.xbox.com/media/games/e32005/vid-e32005livewebcast-001-Lo.asx

 

[FictiousWill]

Anybody feel like capturing it?

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

Yeah the connection is laggeh!

 

[OCybrManO]

People must be hammering that stream...

 

[gh0st]

Its working well for me. It detects that I'm an xbox owner and thus gives me more bandwidth than you all! MWAHAHA.

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

Really they should have several fast connections for this, not just one.

 

[OmegaX]

its like not even working now. Mine just keeps saying buffering but shows no percentage.

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

I'm watching ps3 feed, someone get the x360 feed please!

 

[OCybrManO]

Its working well for me. It detects that I'm an xbox owner and thus gives me more bandwidth than you all! MWAHAHA.

Well, I'm an XBOX owner with an active Live account... but they're not even giving me enough bandwidth to support a slideshow!

 

[OmegaX]

Its not working period.

 

[gh0st]

Guys, use the lowband link: http://www.xbox.com/media/games/e32005/vid-e32005livewebcast-001-Lo.asx

 

[qckbeam]

I can capture it for you if you like.

 

[FictiousWill]

15 mins as of now.

Qck: thanks, I don't need it I have the hi-band stream going now, but I'm sure other people would much appreciate a capture.

 

[Reginald]

Balls. Not working for me. MEdia error

 

[Alan Freeman]

is this LIVE!!!!

 

[satch919]

Really, really, REALLY LAGGY!!! Come on Microsoft, you can afford a better connection than that!

Exciting stuff though. This(E3) is bigger than the Super Bowl or World Series IMO.
