Special Guest: Aaron Greenberg, IEB Chief Of Staff shares numbers about the health of the gaming industry

Update: There probably only CoD on 21st, every other game will be at E3 with 'tons of exclusives' and 'world premieres' and with 'lot to share between E3 and the holidays'.

Update²: seems my wording made some misleading, there won't be 60 minutos of CoD, lol, 'cmon guys, they just said that CoD will be there with gameplay but other games will be saved to E3
 
Thing about MS E3 conferences is that they're geared very much toward mass media and investment. There's a lot of fluff and we usually find out all of the good shit at the bottom of a press release after the show (XBLA, SoA, new features, etc).

Major Nelson implying that this show will be geared toward the core gamer is encouraging.

I'm hoping that if the reveal is lacking in detail, the details emerge in the post-reveal interviews and hands-on that are scheduled.

Shoot, can't listen right now. So the only game shown at the reveal will most likely be CoD?

Only COD on the 21st? I love COD but this is ridiculous.
It doesn't make sense that they're having this big event just to show a 3rd party game that's available on 10 other platforms....unless.....

I argued there wouldn't be much at this reveal, but only showing Ghosts? Oh dear.

If they don't at least tease those new games, exclusives, etc then this reveal might just go on to be the most underwhelming of the bunch.
 
Oh no they won't.
I haven't been waiting for the day just to see cod, which also happens to be a series I absolutely cannot stand.

Oh lol, no.

Somehow I have a hunch they will do some cliffhanger with teaser and "to be continue.. at E3".
 
Just one game? Not the best idea ever.

Yeah. Though I suspect they'll have some kind of sizzle reel / montage at the very least of teasers; can't let "it has no games" be the story of the reveal. Even with E3 so close.
Makes you wonder what they'll talk about for 45 to 50 minutes. Features? Kinect 2.0? Entertainment? Mini? Subsidised model?

Probably the bolded, maybe some talk about the specs, but it sounds like the reveal will be where they define the overall vision for the platform. Then E3 is about games, games, games.

That would be a new low even for Microsoft. And that´s saying something.

I have to hear that because there's no way they are only showing COD. No fucking way.
 
I'm listening to it now, didn't really imply that they're only going to show CoD, just that there will be an emphasis on the new hardware (naturally) and that E3 will be "all about the games".

They probably didn't mention anything about any other games at next weeks event because they're a surprise.
 
One game would be a pretty big bummer. I want a small handful. Like three or five. Even super brief teaser footage works!
 
One game? Wtf... CoD games usually aren't the best showcase of graphics so it's weird this is going to be the only thing we see...
 
Not the best or most wise troll, if that is what they are doing.

If they do what they're saying, we're going to get 50 minutes of just the console. That is awesome. Then probably a reel of stuff that will be shown in full detail at E3, and of course the CoD reveal. If I get tons of coverage of the console, it's UI, specs, and how it functions when playing games, apps, movies etc I'll be happy. If it's full of filler, though, booo.

They will show more than one game.

I don't think anyone expects them to say which ones or how many on the Major Nelson podcast 4 days before the event.
