That has potential to be terrifying if done correctly and you black out your room.

This is how I think it will go as far as what games we see and when.
Xbox event
PGR5, racing games are a great way to show off the tech
CoD Ghosts
Ryse
game from Rare
E3 conference
Alan Wake 2
Respawn's shooter
Lionhead's new IP
teaser for Black Tusk's game
maybe something Halo related

Imagine a lighthouse where the rotating light extends to your room. As long as your lots are out it would help make it that much more immersive. Even basic effects would be fucking awesome.
Whoa. I tingle at the prospect. Even though I thought the first was a bit rough graphically (but still incredibly atmospheric).
Oh my.

I don't care neither. But MS does. That's what I meant with my post. You stated you believe that MS will bring many games to the unveiling and I said I don't believe it, since MS focus is elsewhere.
You can hope for it, but you sure as hell shouldn't expect it. E3 is the time for them to bring the games.

I think it would be safe to assume games will be there...

Of course. Hence the word "many" in my post

One, maybe. It was an awful reveal. It's on Youtube if you want to watch it.

oh man I remember, it was that tacky set up with the audience surrounding the stage, reminded be of a town hall meeting. All I remember from that was Micro transactions

Personally, I hope they focus on the features of the console, what it's about, what distinguishes it from the 360 and even the PS4, etc. Of course clips of some games/ trailers as well, but we really do not need guys from X and Y company going out and giving 5-10 minute presentations (which this would divulge into). They have 1 hour. Tell the people about what it is. We already know it's going to have better graphics and blockbuster games.
But this is just what interests me.

You're not alone.
I'm hoping for a lengthy introduction to the new Xbox OS / interface.
The only company I'd really like to see give a game presentation is Remedy (for Alan Wake 2 obviously)
Though I can wait until E3 for that too, as long as the game is announced this year I'll be fine.

The more I think about it, the more I hope MS pushes the boundaries of experiences with the 720 even if it alienates some of the core. As someone who plans to buy the PS4 and 720, the prospect of two consoles that basically do the same things bores me. Be bold MS!
I'm interested, if the rumours are right, in seeing why they've set aside so much for the OS. I'll be kind of disappointed if it's just for Kinect data as some have suggested. I agree though, I'm not really expecting anything that will turn gaming on its head.

Yep. I won't be buying both at launch. I'll be getting a gaming laptop and an Xbox. I hope the PS4 is significantly different that when I eventually do get one it won't just be an Xbox with different exclusives. And if it's different enough, I may end up just buying all 3 this year. I don't really have the time to dedicate to that many devices though.

As I said before, I really like the HTPC functions, I dont want to buy a Roku+Boxee, or keeping on my PC only for XMBC/Plex.
I'm thinking the Zombie game is going to end up being Dead Rising 3. Microsoft is known to have a relationship with Capcom when it comes to that franchise.
How likely is this now that EA and Microsoft apparently are going to be really close next-gen?

Doesn't durango also have a awesome sound block.
Alan wake plus forest sounds plus evening lights out curtain closed plus sound on loud.
Hnnnnnnng so good sound design that game forest sounded like forest
Yeah. I'd love it if they seriously did not make a "gaming console", per se, but more a of a living room PC with lots of integrated software features that can play (xbox) games. They have all of the resources to finally go for it (and I hope they use them all). I hope they show up with their own "Steambox" (though I'm not sure if that was supposed to be just for games).
Hopefully May 21 isn't just a repeat of the PS4 conference.
Note that I love what Sony did too, but I want MS to be different.
Used games passes would be fine with me. I just want to trade my games in or sell them. If others want to buy them used, then they can pay an activation fee on top of the cost of the used game.

For me i am only downloading so used doesn't matter to me.
There's a newer video that shows they're thinking a tabletop projector (and I would assume a Kinect camera to scan the wall/room around the TV).
And here it is
It's actually really impressive.
I should have been more specific. I know how it works but what I am wonder is that wouldn't the durango have render over 1080p? If so, doesn't that not mean taking a hit on the what the hardware can achieve? IIRC it's the same case with WiiU where the controller's visual information does tax the GPU.

Unlikely, unless MS helped them with the engine. Remedy is pretty small, they need a lot of time to build a new engine and a full game on top of it.
Too much for the unveiling. They only have one hour and it is a given the majority won't be games. Move at least two of them over to E3.

What about the display planes? Maybe they play an important role.

This is why it's almost better to wait about 2 years after they come out to see how they actually grow into themselves. From experience Sony starts off slow and has many games they show way too early that often get delayed. Microsoft tends to have new ip's in the beginning and rely way too much on the bigger sellers later on while cutting back on development.
microsoft cut back this gen because they were under massive pressure to become profitable in the division
notice the revolving door of executives?

Same here. I'm a real sucker for racing games. Man, if they come out with a new Project Gotham I'm sold!
Isn't that largely due to the original Xbox?
I think this is a really reasonable guess

I believe.
Saw that quite awhile ago but thanks.
Not Actually, a second screen with 720p can do it, since the projected image is so larger than the TV you can't extend it pixel by pixel.
I figured, I just wanted to remind you that there's hope!
