It may not be the key to boosting profits at the world's biggest software company, but a flatulent green ogre stole the limelight at Microsoft Corp.'s annual pitch to Wall Street analysts Thursday. After hours of detailed presentations concerning Microsoft's line-up of upcoming software like a new version of the Windows operating system, some 300 analysts were treated to new video games that will run on the company's highly anticipated Xbox (news - web sites) console. In the first public showing of one exclusive Xbox title, Microsoft games evangelist Seamus Blackley played ``Shrek'', a game based on the hit animated movie from Dreamworks studios. Startling the audience, Blackley showed how players controlling the grumpy green ogre would accomplish missions by stunning their enemies with flatulence. | ||
