X03 dates confirmed
Great Xpectations.
Microsoft has sent out preliminary invites for its annual European Xbox event, promising "a fantastic setting, crucial Xbox announcements, and the hottest Xbox games in the world," and ordering us (well, Kristan, the bastard) to keep September 16th and 17th clear, and to have passports on hand for another trip to southern Europe. Last year's event took place in a theme park in Seville. Sniff. There's no word yet precisely (or even vaguely) what the Redmondster has planned, but we'd imagine they will shove Halo 2 down our throats whilst screaming "WOO!" Not that we mind, really. Oh, and there should be plenty of third parties hanging about as ever, hopefully including Activision and Vivendi, and, thus, Doom III and Half-Life 2 respectively...
