We'll see, I just don't want a PS3/360 cross gen scenario. So cut PS4 loose and aim for the stars

Lol

Anthem will have a deal with Microsoft similar to that Sony has with Destiny. Microsoft and Xbox will get the marketing and players on Xbox will get exclusive content, early access, etc.

 

[Neander]

I really want them to sell me on Scorpio. First time I actually have been excited for a Microsoft conference considering and am a predominately Playstation guy

They've got everyone curious enough to at least want to take a peak. Tomorrow can't come fast enough.

 

[Midas]

It's exciting, I'm looking forward to the show. Surprise me MS.

Can't be true. Everyone say you're never excited for anything!

Well, 24 hours and a few minutes left. I don't think I'll buy an Xbox any time soon, still hyped. New hardware is always interesting.

 

[Matt]

Wait, you know what they will announce of games and stuff?

I think I know everything that will be there, but I'm hoping I'm wrong and there are more titles I'm unaware of. I don't know the rundown of the show.

 

[Archpath1]

free upgrade for those who suffered with OG Kinect xbox please

Yeah pretty much that's what I got put of it.

Like i have time to have another Destiny in my life.

 

[Kickz]

I think we're in for a treat tomorrow. Might be the best MS conference in years.

Yup,can't wait for Phil to bless us tomorrow

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Nobody knew the pro or switch name before hand


Names being super secret is nothing new

So?

 

[Shrennin]

Yep that seems to be very true. I usually have an OK grasp on what going to be announced, and I feel pretty good about my beliefs for cost, launch date, and what games MS will show (and I could be wrong about any of those things), but for the name? Everyone still calls it Scorpio.

It's exciting, I'm looking forward to the show. Surprise me MS.

What do you expect the price to be? $399 sounds too good to be true, but $499 sounds not so good either. If it's $499, the games must impress greatly.

 

[Midas]

Like i have time to have another Destiny in my life.

The way I see it; it's fantastic that Bungie gets some competition, I love Destiny but it's long overdue. But in regards to time, yeah, I'm with you. How do we make time for another Destiny? :lol

 

[yukianderson]

Do go on.

Have faith good sir or madame. I think they will bring the fire tomorrow...

 

[Mubrik]

anthem hype!.
any leaks?.

fully expect 399 scorpio.
and price cut for the S.

 

[darkinstinct]

I think I know everything that will be there, but I'm hoping I'm wrong and there are more titles I'm unaware of. I don't know the rundown of the show.

Spill the beans.

 

[Hagi]

I'm really wondering what they could announce that would bring me back into the fray. Going to need some cool new IP's I think.

 

[JayhawkerStL]

I have.
EA is publishing this. So not exclusive.
I bet you didnt know that!

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Why would you want somebody to tell you everything that's in the show?

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Jez is saying $449 now apparently.

 

[yukianderson]

How did that turn out?

 

[darkinstinct]

Jez is saying $449 now apparently.

At this rate by tomorrow evening he will go 349 - 399 - 449 - 399 - 349 - 399 - 449 within seconds.

 

[MCD]

How did that turn out?

Better than the sequel.

That is the reason the sequel was DOA because they cut out the market leader out from a new IP that's suicide. EA learn the lesson they won't make it again.

Please don't blow it Microsoft.

Please don't blow it Microsoft.

Their E3 shows have gotten better each year since launch of the XB1, so I doubt they're going to blow it now. I just hope they have some surprises and don't talk about Scorpio for too long. Hell, I hope all taking is kept to a minimum. No devs talking about their games, just showing them off.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

What would you all say has been Microsoft's best E3 conference this gen?

 

[Kickz]

The quoted post is wrong tho?

 

[Mubrik]

Why would you want somebody to tell you everything that's in the show?

tbh. i feel MS show is going to be a more hardware reveal show than games.
i think at most only two surprises, 1 already revealed by EA.
i have no interest in their hardware (dont have xbone) but i'm mainly only excited about the anthem reveal and other 3rd party they'll show

but you can never tell. i could e completely wrong

 

[Baroquemantic]

What would you all say has been Microsoft's best E3 conference this gen?

Last year.

 

[JMY86]

https://twitter.com/JezCorden/status/873605286837321729

I think $399 was the first thing they hammered out. I would be stunned if they surpassed that but I have been wrong many times before.

 

[Matt]

What do you expect the price to be? $399 sounds too good to be true, but $499 sounds not so good either. If it's $499, the games must impress greatly.

Based on what I know, what I have been told, and the details of the system, I expect a higher price then most seem to. Gun to my head, I'd say $499, though again that is my estimate, I am not presenting that as fact. It's a lot of expensive tech and MS isn't interested in losing money.

If it's $399? That would be amazing. I don't at all think that will happen, but I'd be very happpy if it did.

 

[Theorry]

What would you all say has been Microsoft's best E3 conference this gen?

2013 and 2015

 

[yukianderson]

https://twitter.com/JezCorden/status/873605286837321729

I think is just a play to surprise us and have a drop mic moment and be 399.

 

[TheLionsDen]

Haven't paid any attention to Microsoft news the past two days, have I missed anything significant?

 

[Hardvlade]

What would you all say has been Microsoft's best E3 conference this gen?

When they announced BC IMO

You where making a point about EA not making exclusives games and the games proves the point was they don't do it. Reason why I replied to you.

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

Hehe, I'm having a blast reading threads on GAF for the past week(s).

It's awesome,never seen so many ppl be so defensive about plastic boxes. Tomorrow is gonna be very very interesting.

 

[Sunset Samurai]

How did that turn out?

Over 7 million copies successful? 😎

 

[hanspampel]

How did that turn out?

the first exclusive game sold better than the second multi platform one
so it turned out great


i doubt it's exclusive, but lets wait and see
full exclusive, times exclusive, console exclusive, platform exclusive, content exclusive, marketing exclusive
one thing for sure. it will be exclusive*





*the worst washy most used term in the games industry

Total opposite. Their show is games, games, games, and that's why they had to extend it. Phil also mentioned some games that mean a lot to him, depending on how you take his meaning there. I hope Microsoft blows me away.

 

[JayhawkerStL]

Lol you guys really gonna let this one person saying ridiculous stuff completely derail the thread like that?

Of course. Then they will tell the story later that this is what everyone was saying in the Xbox thread.

 

[yukianderson]

How much did part two sell?

 

[WiseguyMVP]

The S is going to $199 because Scorpio will launch at...

$299!!!

MEGATON1!1!

 

[Matt]

Spill the beans.

I'm not gonna do that, but in the past I have said I was unhappy with MS's lack of commitment to a strong first party development stable, and I do not believe this E3 will change that.

Would love to be wrong though.

Some poster who apparently works at Bioware has said it's not exclusive to Xbox in the Anthem thread.
