Headed to CES 2009

I on my way to Sin City for the rest of the week. We’ve got the Microsoft CES keynote Wednesday night (which I will be live blogging) and the Capcom Street Fighter IV event Thursday night. Keep an eye on Inside Xbox for video coverage directly from the show floor and if you are going to be attending CES this year keep an eye out for me (and my video crew) to let me know what electronic hottness I should take a be covering. See you on the show floor.

P.S. If you want to keep up on what is going on to the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, check out my new Marketplace Blog (currently in Beta) that is automatically updated throughout the day.

 

Events By Larry Hryb, Xbox LIVE's Major Nelson

  • HansGr00ber

    Would it be possible to make your marketplace blog only show content from your own region? Otherwise it’s pretty cool

  • Swamp Thing 71

    Any news on the Rock Band DLC ?

  • Tim

    CES = FAIL
    Macworld = WIN

  • LawdaddyCO

    Good stuff. I’m excited for SFIV.

  • RidinSlow

    OLED Super-Thin HDTV’s. How big? How many? Which had best resolution and smallest form factor?

    Internet “cell” phones. Cell phones that run over WAN. Are they still in existence and coming down the pipe? A few years ago Nokia had one at CES, but haven’t heard anything since

  • Valeo Aeris

    I second HansGr00ber post, filter is a must.

  • Spargo CXVII

    ZUNE Xphone would be nice. LiveAnyWhere???

  • Churchkpq

    @HansGr00ber and Valeo Aeris
    You can just click on the tag that says whatever region your in and it acts like a filter.

  • ds

    where is Roy Orbison?

  • alsotop

    @HansGr00ber:

    You can sort of do it using the tags, i.e. for us UK lot:
    http://m.majornelson.com/archive/tags/United+Kingdom/default.aspx

    Seems like something’s aren’t quite always tagged UK, but hopefully it’ll work out.

  • GotEmRunnin

    I took a sneak peak and MSFT’s CES schedule two keynotes seemed to focused on gaming and connected gaming. I’m hoping for some LiveAnyWhere news and mabye a announcement on Alan Wake on the gaming side.

  • SidearmS

    The marketplace blog – just a big JPG of the number 1200.

    XBox 360 – Because I want to PHYSICALLY OWN my games. Really, WE HAVE COVERED THIS MANY TIMES BEFORE.

  • DMZilla

    Love the new Community Games list! w00t

  • Master Devwi

    Darn, the one time I can make it to an event where you’ll be, there isn’t a Meet & Eat. :( Oh well. Hopefully I’ll run into you! Have a safe trip!

  • YODA12320

    Well MacWorld was a disappointment only liked 80 million drm free songs and 3G Itunes Store and the new 17″ Mac Book

  • Transient

    Well we all know the PlayStation crowd is going to win the SFIV contest. It should be pretty fun to watch though.

  • Playstation 3 4 life

    Playstation blog ownz Major Nelson is a biotch

  • Anonymous

    According to Joystiq, only Xbox related news is a breif mention of Halo: ODST and Halo Wars being released this year (which we all knew).

    HOWEVER, I’m very excited in regards to news about Windows 7 and Windows Mobile. I just got my first smart phone and enjoy 6.1 quite a bit, but I can’t wait to see what the next edition holds in store.

  • davidkenobi

    If Major (and community team) go there and will make a live blog for the keynote, we can hope there’s some news, maybe not fresh but… i don’t think it’s just to talk about windows news.

  • MADEIRA STEVE88

    Street Fighter IV oooooooooooooh please be a announcement of a demo on xbl to hold me over till release………… super street fighter can only hold me for so long lol

  • MadMojo

    Love the new Marketplace blog, Major! Thanks!

  • Turtle502

    “experts” predict that the technology this year will be “evolutionary” and not “revolutionary”. still, I’d like to hear about that one “must-have” item that will change the way I use technology (something as revolutionary as my 360, perhaps???)

  • http://www.xbox.com/support theultimate13x

    Thanks for the tips about the tags guys. Now all m.majornelson.com needs is a way to make that more intuitive and then to add this feature to Xbox.com’s Web Marketplace.

  • BkLiveWire

    I will be there.

  • barrios1992

    hey major welcome back to Las Vegas see you at the show!

  • Jersey Jones

    Hey Major, Are we doing a meet & eat this time?

  • DKR1138

    Developers DEVELOPERS DEVEELLOPPERRSS developers! developerS! deveLLOOPERS! DEVELOPERS! *sweats prefusely*

  • Warrengonline

    @Shadowed Ghost
    To the tune of “This isn’t Microsoft, this is MADNESS!” ;) .

    OLED, SSD, Mass Storage, Solar Powered, Automated and Biodegradable are the keywords I’m looking for from CES. And possibly Vibrating/Massage.

  • IWantAnXbox360

    Please talk about any future price cuts to the 360?
