The E3 game expo kicked off this week in Los Angeles. And while it's not the giant glitzy affair it has been in years past, Microsoft and others in the video game business are still making some noise.

Monday morning, the line to get into the Microsoft E3 press conference snaked back and forth throughout the West Hall at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Among other things, Microsoft showed off first-ever gameplay footage from the post-apocalyptic title Fallout 3 and announced that there will be downloadable content exclusive to Xbox Live.
