Halo 3 Launches

Uncategorized 0 Minutes

Here’s my photos from the Halo 3 Launch party last night in Silicon Valley. Guy Kawasaki has a better post, though.

It was a great party, glad I talked Maryam into letting me go. Thanks to Daniel for coming along. Good vibe and lots of smiles.

Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram. Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc). That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace. Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993. ++++++++ SPEAKER PITCH: Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next. SPEECH ABSTRACT #1: TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology? Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI Why "the Fourth Transformation?" Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap. This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV. This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business. Learn more about Robert's speaking style and contact his agent at http://odemanagement.com/robert-scoble/Robert-Scoble.html ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #2: "The Next Two Clicks of Moore's Law." Over the next four years, or two clicks of Moore's Law, a ton about our technology world will change. Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world. He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world. He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small. ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #3: "Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?" As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world. What role does augmented reality play in both worlds? Get Scoble's insight into where augmented reality is going, see tons of real-world demos, and understand what he means by 'personalized meaning.'

  14. Only white geeky nerd diehards this time around. Didn’t match the fever pitch of Halo 2, and not all have upgraded to 360, plus general boredom with the endless Quakehead-Halo death-matches, Halo 2 has been out enough for people to get really sick of it, whereas it seemed half the audience for Halo 2 was minted brand new. It will still sell zillions, but third time not a charm I’d say, lost the luster. So when’s that vaporware movie coming out? 😉

  20. There will always be a group of people who think being the first to own the latest thing, be it the iPhone, Windows Vista, or Halo, is the greatest reward. Let’s not confused hype with quality. I’m sure the people who buy Halo 3 a week from now will enjoy it as much as the people who stood in line.

  28. Guess it wouldn’t be Microsoft without some major screw-up of sorts, heard from 5 people already with the unplayable limited-edition scratched disks. And in true Microsoft fashion, they quickly responded with a replacement disk program, being that they are so used to replacing the actual 360 units. 😉

  30. MS knows it is in deep doo-doo. For them to even be considering buying into Facebook shows their desperation.

    What people term as Web 2.0 is really boring. Nothing new. Just a different way of doing something.

    Wake me up when some of the tech on Star Trek is available. Until then, I’m just as impressed with a Commodore 64 as I am with a laptop with 4 GB running Linux.

    More of you should read Cult of the Amateur by Andrew Keen. It’s hard to read that book and not agree with the author. Go ahead, try it… Look at the other aspects of the world around you.

  48. I really enjoyed standing in line, I did however, go in at midnight and picked it up, I didn’t feel like taking the whole day off to get a game that wasn’t going to get in my hands any faster if I waited a few more hours.

    This game is so much fun at my house we are playing a whole bunch. 🙂
