Microsoft will once again put up a fight against an array of game consoles come E3. According to a recent press release, the company has packed its booth with 20 games from big name publishers like Electronic Arts, Atari and Sony Online. "By concentrating all these great games in a single location, you can get an immediate sense of the excitement happening on Windows," said Dean Lester, general manager of Windows Graphics and Gaming Technologies at Microsoft. "These titles represent just a small sample of the incredible innovation developers are bringing to the Windows platform."
Microsoft also plans on showing off Microsoft XNA, a new software development platform the company announced at the Game Developers Conference last March. A new "key" title at E3 will demonstrate exactly how cool (or not cool) the Microsoft XNA truly is. Also on Microsoft's E3 menu is the Windows XP Game Advisor, a web-based tool "that sorts through a variety of genres and age-group choices to present the best matches for gamers of all levels, from more than 150 of the hottest titles available for Windows today."
