Did it look more like Max Payne with the time shift stuff? Was he really agile?

Look like a blending of Max Payne and Alan Wake. I was really impressed. Looks like it's another Remedy home run. I'll get an XBO just for it. Still intrigued by the TV show aspect of it.

You can watch it in 1080p here now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-73i1k47_Q

Lol did they really use the best place to play hahahaha wtf they cant even come up with their own slogan??
 
Sanctuary looks awesome, I assume it's a blend of the Halo 4/5 engine rather than a Halo 2 graphic overlay? The Scenery looks incredible.
 
It was a good show, but... they said they had a big exclusive to announce at the beginning and it was an already announced game that we knew was already coming to Xbox One... unless they meant Screamride.

I wasn't expecting too much though it met that. The ID@Xbox stuff looked really great though and I'm pleased with the titles they have coming.

Hyped for Quantum Break although I needed a more narrowed release date >.<

Big exclusive = Tomb Raider?
 
Anyone else think that this conference was better than the E3 one? It felt more intimate and focused on the gamers and the games than E3. I loved the ID @ Xbox stuff and all of the big games looked amazing.

My one gripe was that "Below" is definitely a 2015 title now...I wasn't sure if this was already said, but I was hoping for the Holidays.
 
Tomb Raider is pretty big, unexpected and while I wouldn't consider myself to be amongst them, I can see it being something that makes you grit your teeth hard, especially since the reboot did well to respark interest in TR significantly.

I love how the E3 news ended up hitting on all the fronts.
 
Love the animations in this game. Great attention to details

I thought some of the animations stuck out as being kind of bad to be honest. I was told before I watched this how amazing it was (not sure if that was a good thing), I really didn't expect it to be this much of a shooter. And, as someone who didn't like Alan Wake I'm not sold yet, looks great, gameplay didn't blow me away like I thought it would.

Overall I thought it was a solid show. MS have been killing it lately. QB looked amazing too. Wish it was coming out this year.

Oh and the TR salt was fun, if not a little embarrassing.
 
Geoff Keeigley-Spoke to many people here at Xbox press conference on Tomb Raider. Official line is that the game is "exclusive on Xbox for holiday 2015."

Quantum Break looks a bit dull but that might just be because I'm not playing it. It might also be because it's not doing much I haven't seen before. It's looking great in terms of graphics though.

I must admit I was very disappointed. Some of the games and announcements were solid (QB, TR,...), but everything looked so predictable and conventional. When the only software having a bit of originality and creativity are low budget independent games, there's something wrong in your kingdom.
Even the recently unveiled EA program is closer to the kind of things I was expecting from MS than that conference. And I used to think of EA as the less imaginative publisher of the lot.

This. It looks like a game that is quite hard to demonstate and the section they showed was pretty basic, the game looks interesting concept wise but it all depends on how many weapons there is, enemy variety, how many of these time manipulation abilities the player will have and most importantly how all of the above will come together in combat.

And yeah graphics wise the game looked great.
