E3 09: Microsoft press conference live blog photo

We're live at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, sitting in a large auditorium waiting for the Microsoft E3 press briefing to begin.From what we can tell, this thing is going to be packed to wall-to-wall packed with media and developers from all across the globe. 

We'll be live blogging the whole event, which officially kicks off at 10:25 A.M. PST. Provided no technical issues get in our way, hit the jump for our live blog, and check our gallery which will constantly update with photos from the conference.  If you don't need to blow-by-blow, expect the show's big announcements to be broken out as it comes.

What do you expect to see? Do you think all of Microsoft's big announcements have leaked before the show, or does it still have surprises up its sleeve?
