What's Microsoft Announcing At Its CES Keynote?

By Michael McWhertor, 6:20 PM on Fri Jan 2 2009, 12,177 views
Next Wednesday, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer will kick off the Consumer Electronics Show with a keynote that will likely involve chairs being thrown and perspiration-soaked Brooks Brothers shirts. But what about product announcements? Um...
It doesn't sound like Microsoft is bringing much in the way of big guns, at least if Techcrunch's report on details from the keynote are accurate. While we'll still be liveblogging the bejeezus out of the talk, it sounds dry as dust.
On the gaming side, Ballmer will talk up the two Halo universe titles being released in 2009, Ensemble Studios Halo Wars and Bungie's Halo 3 expansion Halo 3: ODST. And that's it. E3 this is not, obviously, as Microsoft has things besides the Xbox 360 on its 2009 slate.
We'd suggest keeping your eyes on our CES 2009 coverage regardless, especially if Ballmer decides to drop new Halo 3: ODST details. There's always a good chance Microsoft has something special up its corporate sleeve, so we'll keep our finger crossed that an extra day spent in Las Vegas was not done so in vain.
Ballmer’s CES Keynote Promises To Be A Snoozer (Non-Announcements Revealed!) [Techrunch via Gizmodo]

There is only so much Halo some people can handle. At times it gets annoying.

This is classic Mario Syndrome, milk your biggest AAA Title(or Mascot) for all its got till you have only the casual and fanboys playing it.

Halo will become this, just like Mario has.

I think it'll be interesting to see how the two games are doing. I'm not going to touch the RTS game because for the mere fact that I suck at RTS games but ODST I want to learn more.

I don't mind Halo, but if you're gonna bring it back, give us a prequel of the 1st Halo (like the fall of reach or something like that)

Halo is great but old now. But then again, every new franchise of new games that come out just reek of failure and disappointment. Halo revolutionized gaming and the Xbox.
