That's a bit dismissive, isn't it?

Whilst all gamers should pay passing interest to the Xbox division's financial wellbeing a future where that's delivered via paid for exclusives/content isn't particularly appealing, (at least IMO).

Durango/Infinity/Kinect exclusive features are great but Durango/Infinity/Kinect exclusives not so much. Maybe I'm unrealistic but I want first party exclusives (and some folk are rightly tooting the horn of MS' efforts here), that differentiate a console from its competitors via a different channel than the regular churn of sports franchises or CoD (something "we" often bemoan).

Cheers.

I'm not dismissing the fact that they care about them. Just the notion that it somehow is applicable to the mass market.
 
Now that would be a way to get a big step up on Sony's event. Getting feedback from the gaming press on day 1 of the announcement would be interesting.

I think Sony already confirmed playable Ps4 games at E3. Besides the press will be overwhelmed on that day no matter what.

There is also no extra "honor" or "respect" that should be tied to a first party dev versus a 3rd. Its not like using a contractor is somehow bad for making games or having a 1st party dev is somehow better.

This would be before E3 and the first time the press and fans got to play and see next-gen games running with normal people playing them. That would be huge, it's like Russia getting to space first but America stepped on the moon first.
 
I noticed they added a bit. Seems like its going to be huge.

Just imagine if they pull something like the following :
You are away from your XboxNext in some hotel but have your tablet with you - now you want to play Halo 5. Just fire up the smartglass app on your tablet which remotely starts your xbox and pull out your controller to play Halo 5 streamed to the tablet.
 
This thread clearly shows that Xbox got a bit more than a slight edge in the UK.

Wow, didn't realize it was outselling the PS3 in a similar way it does in the US.

With another price drop I see the 360 ending up with more systems sold than any competitor by the time they're all dead.

On subject, I keep checking back in hopes of SOME KIND of leak.

Nothing yet :(

Hype train is running off of tweets and hope if we get a leak this thread will explode.

Especially since Major Nelson made fun of Sony not showing the box, I'd say 100%!

Every reveal for a console until the Wii U and PS4 showed their console Microsoft would be in the norm to show it.

I just prefer "gaming".

When I see entertainment I feel they gonna talk about TV, Netflix and Kinect half of the time.

That's nice for you.

Naw i rather not find out about anything till the event.
 
Well... they need to be much more aggressive this time around. They're competing head to head at launch to Sony this time.

Good news is... Nintendo is out of the game.
Bad news... Cheap Android/IOS gaming.
