Youtube: Live streaming not possible in germany because of legal problems.

WHY? It was possible for E3, why not for gamescom? Sometimes I really hate to live here, because of stuff like this.
 
Platinum and Kamiya fan here, I hope Scalebound to be something really special. I really don't know what to expect from Scalbound, is it an open world or open structure? How is the combat (like Bayonetta or dmc or something different)? Dragon companion, can the player summon it whenever he wants or during boss fights? Is there RPG elements? Side quests? Too many questions. If this is an open world game, it will be Microsoft's answer to Horizon.

Yeah, it's not like you have unreasonable expectations.

You're not fooling anyone.

lol Stay salty. I want a Xbone, but I'm not fully convinced. I'm doing my due diligence in finding something to justify purchasing one. Considering how deep MS's price cuts were last year for the holidays, is my request really that unreasonable? Of course not.

Come on bro.

Come on...

Same above. That's why I'm watching the conference. Halo 5 is already a foregone conclusion for me. Now I need a few more reasons to jump on board.

Cutting the price 100$ by dropping Kinect, isn't the same as dropping the price 150$ and packing in this holiday's biggest exclusive.
 
I am going to miss the first five minutes due to when I get off work. I am hoping they start a little late, or open with a montage and a standard meaningless speach.
 
I figure Scalebound will follow the usual Platinum reactions.

"OH MY GOD IM SO EXCITED KAMIGOD KAMIGOD"
"HERE WE GO"
"OOooooh?"
"oh"
"um, this looks weird?"
"wow this looks terrible lol"
"wish it was more like *insert platinum game*"
"graphics look bad"
*hours pass and more gameplay + previews roll in*
"Oh actually this looks much better than the original reveal"
*time passes, more glowing previews*
"This game sounds REALLY FUCKING AWESOME"
*trailers roll in over the months before release*
"PLATINUM IS GOD THIS GAME LOOKS AMAZING OH MY GOD"
*game releases*
"NOBODY DOES COMBAT LIKE PLATINUM KAMIGOD KAMIGOD"

1. FIFA 10-15 minutes. Far too long for far too little.
2. Quantum Break May 2016 (does this require Kinect? Can't remember the last time I checked. Really interested but if it needs Kinect...)
3. Scalebound - No. Non-linear level based.
4. Crackdown - Yes. Since they try to pimp their power of the cloud stuff with this I can't see it being anything else.
5. Available now - Possibly. W10 Dash for preview members...Reach B/C but announcement of Reach coming to MCC ala ODST (1080p/60fps) in a month or two. or three.
6. RDR - No
7. AAA New - No. Possibly.
8. Silent HIlls - Hell no. Can't imagine them buying it but I also feel like it wouldn't be Kojima and Del Toro working on it so....
9. Hololens - Maybe. Probably not since they said Gen 1 wasn't gaming focused.
10. Price Drop - probably not
11. Game announcement - no idea.

loool, this is 100% true.
 
Aaaand I'm up. Did I miss anything?

Gears of War and Shadow Complex are BC as of last night; Crackdown, Scalebound and Quantum Break are 2016 games according to Major Nelson's Periscope; and there was a pixel image of a ton of old franchises and characters called Legacy that went up and today's Gamescom conference is about Xbox legacy!
