halo 3 trailor is getting reemed on marketplace!

its only 104.42 mb but its going hella slow, im at 40%

12:11: Moore moves onto Tom Clancy games, gives Ubisoft props. Trailer for Double Agent comes up, shows Sam Fisher getting mission, Fisher losing his job to go "deep undercover," shooting dude in alleyway, then parachuting into artic base. Guard walks by, and Fisher comes up OUT OF THE SNOW and slits his throat. Guy saying "I am Sam Fisher" is NOT Michael Ironside. Release date confirmed--this September.

12:13: Moore turns subject to Viva Pinata. Many in the audience snicker. MGS designer Jim Veevaert gets on stage to talk about game. Says the concept originated at Rare. Says goal is to turn little plot of land which will attract wild, free-roaming pinantas. Bashing those pinatas with bats to harvest their candy entrails is apparently not part of the game.

12:18: However, accordig to Veevaert, buying and selling pinatas on Marketplace is part of the game. Players will be able to trade said pinatas and buy cusomtization features. Shows the "scary" pinata, a red "Macaracoon." Players can breed their pinatas by successfully completely a "romance dance" minigame which causes the pinatas to asexually reproduce. Those hoping for hot pinata-on-pinata action are visibly disappointed.

IGN is supposed to start showing it soon. Not sure if it's just for subscribers (I have free IGN through Comcast).

12:18: Moore moves subject to Xbox live Marketplace--18 million downloads so far. As of today, over 1,000 pieces of "downloadable content" available.

Says content partners: Epic Records, Paramount, Lionsgate, Parammount.

12:20: Moore announces first TV show on XBL Marketplace, the Gears of War experience, will be avaible tomorrow.
