I stopped watching at the part where he says to hold stuff for E3.... Really? Do you honestly think a company like Microsoft isn't going to hold anything for E3?

Yeah that's pretty much a no brainer. It's only an hour anyway, not like they are going to blow everything and have absolutely nothing at E3. As others have said, i expect they will show of the console and controller and talk about services, and of course showcase a few games. But no chance in hell they are going to drop any megatons before E3.

I think they're going to save always online comments for post-show interviews though, even if its best they get it out of the way because of the mounting uncertainty.
If they make no mention of always online and no used games they will get asked it straight after the event anyway.

We will know the answer to both of those questions by the end of the 21st I'm sure.
 
A couple of us Neogafers are going to do a after-show as well with some random thoughts if anyone is interested for Angry Centaur Gaming.

Its going to be a fun verbal wrestling match as some are pro services some are pro games and neither wants to agree:) If anyone else wants to join PM me so I can set up the proper technical bits to get you in.
 
This is how I feel on the inside.

This is how I look on the outside.

Yep. But I believe they'll drop at least one big one at the reveal. With the rest at E3.
 
Unfortunately that montage of suits spouting "experience" and "content" is most likely what we're going to get. Just like the PS4 reveal. Except Don doesn't look and sound as insane as Cerny comes across. He'd make a good villain on a cop drama. Ballmer on the other hand... Hopefully the "content" they actually show will be more interesting than the people spouting the word "content".
 
From the PR:

I like when he said Tomb Raider maps weren't content, I understand that it was crappy content but it was still content.

I don't have a problem with them saying content and experience as we've seen on NeoGAF when you get fancy with your language people will twist them.

ahahahahaha!!

microsoft is receiving so much good will here, they would be fucking stupid to derp the console in any way


p.s. I can see you mister ballmer right-clicking and saving. enjoy ;)



nice. about them saving something for e3, I think they probably have planned on a steady or increasing stream of news from 21st 'till E3. its not that long of a time interval. at least thats what I'd do.
 
If I only could speak clearly well english I would join the fun!
Man feel free to join though. And just speak up when you feel comfortable. We would love to have you. Besides knowing us Gaffers someone is bound to be drunk on excitement...or alcohol so I will have to ringlead them anyway.

I'd join in but I'm going to be out of town during the reveal.
 
Naw, starts at 6pm here. I'll either be home already or on the train.

The hype train!

yeah it's 7PM here, so I'm fine. E3 will also be fine. Only 'problem' is Sony's E3, that starts at 3AM here, so that isn't ideal. But am self-employed, so I might just go on my knees for the boss and touch his wiener... ;) Usually works ;)
 
Guys don't lie, who took a day off for 21st ?? ;)

I planned to take a day off at work. Then I ended up getting a new job and my last day at the current place is Friday. The new place wanted me to start on the 21st but I pushed my first day back to the 22nd.

Last year I did take the first 2 press conference days off for E3 (and thoroughly enjoyed the GT.com streaming coverage). But now I have a baby on the way-- due date is June 5th. So my hope is the baby comes on time so that I'll be off of work when E3 press conferences happen :)
 
COOL! Also, we need a chart where it shows when this start in different countries, i can't never be able to work this around
So is that a yes for joining? If so send me a short PM so your on the list and don't get lost in the massive thread:)
 
While I don't mind paying for Live, I'd love having MP free -but damn I just don't see them doing this.

They need to simply have silver and gold have online MP free and then make sure that gold has some digital stuff, games and so forth, as well as maybe some timed events that are only available for gold. I have always wondered why both companies don't offer FAR more for the price. I get the free game on "+" but I would love to see actual event stuff for the premium members. Or what about them being able to test out new apps before they go live, be able to enter lotteries to beta test MP games? Stuff like that.
 
I think I'm ready to jump in, but I don't think my avatar is very "Only on XBOX" friendly. :P

Really looking forward to have a day off making games for this :)
