Xbox 360's new functionality revealed

Video: See what you'll soon be able to get up to with new Xbox and Xbox Live functionality.

We touched upon the upcoming enhancements to the Xbox 360 in this morning's E3 wrap-up, but we've now got this video to share that shows off just what's coming to the console.

It looks like this video is meant to go with a live presentation, so you'll just have to fill in the silent gaps with your own dialogue - a thick and smarmy American accent will really help get you that actually-at-E3 feeling. If you can get your girl- or boyfriend to dress up like a boothbabe, the experience will be even more lifelike!

So if you want to learn all about the Project Natal controller, Facebook and Twitter functionality, and more, watch away.

Man, where do they get the people to model for this stuff?!

They couldn't have picked a bigger bunch of fuckheads to demonstrate it could they?

Yeah i dunno. You always see these things and they look good and usually are relatively fun. I personally have found that motion capture and eyetoy like products tend not to work very well. We'll wait and see when it get's released weather it's good or not i suppose.

I really do hate having to go through two or three steps as I'm gaming to go online and Facebook or Twitter.

If only someone had invented Alt and Tab keys... Microsoft, you're my saviour!! I can't wait to have to wave my genitals in some ridiculous manner at a motion sensor to trigger the onscreen keyboard, before gorging myself on a volley of back-pain inducing manoeuvres in order to write 160 characters or less.
