If MS had marketing or anything else on it, it would be at their show not shown on Wednesday. So either no marketing has been decided as yet or Sony are doing it.
Sony did Mafia II iirc so I doubt its changed.

Nah don't think so, according to Phil, they are focusing on 1st party rather than exclusive deals.
I really hope it's not timed exclusive. It'll dominate the narrative :/
If Sony had a marketing deal, then Microsoft wouldn't be able to advertise anything Mafia III related on their Youtube channel.
Paris show, and the fact that putting lots of time/money into a press event doesn't make much sense. They will still easily dominate Europe.

Imagine if Microsoft partnered with deep silver and volition for crackdown. It's the only company I can see doing the destruction they're going for justice.

Im pretty sure both MS and Sony put up videos of all games coming to their platforms that are released. I can see some Batman stuff up there, Assassins Creed Syndicate... Hitman, so I don't think that is true
Here is a COD tweet as well

Yea, I mean the Star Wars trailers have been on Xbox YouTube since when they were first released.

I'm not sure that's true, they only can't advertise the xbox version outside of their official websites.

Can we fast-forward to Aug 5th? Thnx guys, you're the best.
I misspelled 'Destiny' when searching for it on the official Xbox channel Lol, so it came up with 0 results. My mistake.

Depends. With Destiny, Microsoft wasn't allowed to put up anything Destiny unless it was stripped of all tags that could make it findable in search engines because of the Sony deal. We were allowed to upload Destiny content but there were very, very strict guidelines.
Man I got so upset when I read this because I thought i had been wrong about the conference date its the 4th right?"

Yep Xbox Conference is on the 4th, I think he was talking about Mafia III.
and I guess I was just jumping to conclusions about Mafia III.

I'm sure you will still get exclusive "deals"(like timed DLC), what Phil trying to do less is 3rd party exclusive for the whole game.

This indicates to me that you haven't played Max Payne 1 or 2 or Alan Wake.

I played Alan Wake, that's part of why I'm skeptical it'll be good.
Max Payne 2 was great tho...12 years ago...
why so cynical The Flash

Damn! Shit like this shouldn't be allowed lol.
Lax is an understatement. By the time The Witcher 3 released, it didn't even seem like MS had a marketing deal anymore.
The Witcher is looking for the world’s most powerful console

I don't know what even brought on the comparison to The Order, but judging from the gameplay we've seen thus far, Quantum Break is miles ahead. It looks like it'll combine the best of Remedy's style of gunplay and storytelling.
Lol this is hilarious.
And then we had the Destiny fragrance neogaf outrage

I hope we see Fallout footage, even if it's just the Quakecon footage. Halo Wars 2 would also be a system seller as long as a gimmick didn't control it.
Reminds me of Microsoft buying the word "Beta" for Evolve. Inferior "Technical Test", Master "Beta".

huh??? The last extended gameplay footage they showed had almost as much gameplay as the entire The Order game.
Joking aside...not sure how you are drawing this comparison. The Order was a purely cinematic experience where the focus was on pushing graphics with simplistic and lack of in-depth gameplay/length etc.
Great news then. I hadn't really been following Gamescom but it's good to know Scalebound gameplay is coming.
It's happening but I just hope they changed the main character's look at the least.
I agree. He looks similar to DmC Dante, which isn't really a bad thing but I want him to has his own looks.

Yeah but comparing it to The Order 1886? A game that was pretty much a critically flopped tech demo? I seriously doubt Remedy would sink that low. I just can't see it. Gameplay imo already looks way better.

Definitely.
