One thing I have to appreciate, outside of that ridiculous beginning set-up (which I hope doesn't continue through the conference), is the just plain showing of gameplay. I missed gameplay showings of a lot of games during the Microsoft conference.
Some of the terrain and foliage seems weird and not so good. However, some of the colors and the contrasts I really like. Not liking some of the Assassin's Creed vibes I'm getting.
