Doesnt look like a game, more like an ad campaign like "man and technology closer than ever, the beginning of a new creation" or something along those lines.

That's a big IF though, but it would still be a big leak, yeah.
You should check a couple pages back. The latest rumor is that there were multiple prototypes of this next console, so those specs may have existed at one point, but are now old news. Guess we'll possibly find out soon enough.
Asked this in the Halo thread too, but how would a Halo ARPG even work? The idea gets me hype though. Would it be a squad based shooter? Possibly more platforming and vehicle focused? Large-scale warfare? Pelicans vs. Phantoms mode at last? Remnants of the Halo MMO developed?
I'm really curious what that game could be or what form it could take.

It's like he wants to connect but just...can't
Also, we didn't KNOW 100% that was the new controller.
Something like Borderlands I would guess.

if it was an ad campaign they would use a real real hand and robot model no? looks like some in-game graphics to me.
Think Mass Effect in the Halo universe. Maybe set it some time during the events of Halo 1-Halo. Have resources like XCOM to spend on new weapons/equipment instead of just stores.
Just spitballing ideas, really.

I feel the same way. I guess I'm just looking for something different. Of all the games they showed the new Killzone was the least exciting yet the one they seem to flagship. Microsoft already seems to be tying itself with Call of Duty again. I'm hoping more of a leadership role from them with some funky new ip's. Most people didn't buy them but I really enjoyed Kameo and Viva Pinata. Crackdown at the time was very cool too.
That image looks to possibly be Kinect related and how the new camera will detect fingers.

I don't doubt that there were multiple prototypes, but again, that stuff is usually reserved for the initial concept phase.
Even the leaked roadmap from Microsoft showed a different console than the rumored specs.
The issue is taking multiple designs and investing in them from the initial concept all the way through manufacturing. At some point, designs get whittled down to one. It is a massive waste of resources to try and have multiple designs that are fully realized, and it doesn't happen in the real world at all. The January specs are so detailed that they pretty much have to be the near finalized console.
Not sure if others feel similarly, but if they bring back IP's like PGR and Perfect Dark, then those feel like they're old and untouched enough to the point where I'd consider them as fresh as a new IP, especially for a game like PGR where there's no story or characters to stick to.
Obviously, but the article made it sound a lot more recent than what the usual process would entail. Either way, there's no sense in arguing about it since we'll likely know relatively soon.

Hmm
YOU are the apocalypse.
Not saying I'd mind either of those games, but personally I hope they bring actual new IPs and something more fresh. Microsoft started this gen quite ballsy but I feel they've been playing it too safe the last few years.
Yes! I'm cautiously excited to see what improvements they've made. A new d-pad is an obvious thing, but I wonder if they mess with it beyond that. This rumor of it being "flatter" sounds strange, but Microsoft hasn't let me down when it comes to controllers since the Xbox S controller, so I'm willing to give it a shot.

What if they don't change the dpad though? That'd disappoint me more than always online lol.

Guys guys!! the reveal is...it is...
TOMORROW.
TOMORROW.
You ARE the controller. Go ahead and look in the mirror.
Borderlands is an FPS though.. Also going up against Destiny would SUCK.

Good morning guys, ready for dem megatons in just one day?
No time to chat, so I'll just leave this here;
Made in a minute while eating breakfast, getting changed and trying to read your insatiable spam from last night.

Eh, Im betting it will look very similar to the 360 one. Just like DS4 looks like the DS3. There should be new additions of course, but overall they will probably look similar.

Nintendo at times does a great job transitioning old ip's on new systems and taking advantage of the new hardware while adding new gameplay elements. That's when I don't mind as much. PGR would get a pass too because it's still a racing game at heart so one expects improved visuals to be the main attraction. I really don't want to keep seeing the same games like Call of Duty being re-skinned.
Lots of developers do that, they use new hardware to bring out new ip's.
Yea, another day and a half to go!
Why say that? Borderlands can hold it's own. Wasn't Borderlands 2 the 2nd most preordered game under Take Two? or something like that?
More than a day left. Not Monday yet on the West Coast.

An XCOM Halo tactical game could be pretty amazing. I'd play the shit out of that.

Halo style Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter would be AMAZING!!
...not Future Soldier...That sucked.

I'm just wondering how they'll improve on near perfection. Intriguing AF. Better D-pad hopefully and tweaked ergonomics I guess.

Goodnight, I'll be there tomorrow, for the longest day, and night where I'll try hard to sleep like many of you, I assume.
Oh Borderlands is great, and BL2 was a huge success. But Destiny is stealing its formula and implementing it as a pseudo-MMO. I just feel amidst those two giants a Halo rip off not done by 343 suffers the chance of being not that great. Depends on the studio of course.

Have you played ODST?
Also they made a Halo anime, so they had to find personalities somewhere. Of course it's made increasingly difficult now
they killed off the character with the most/only development

Damn, I have to get up at 3am for this, BUT I WILL!
These next few weeks few weeks are going to be great, we're going to be drowning in Durango and PS4 goodness. 8 long ass years the last time this happened, what a gen though!
1 more sleep until Xmas.

Nah that's Wars. ODST's campaign is traditional Halo set in a sandbox, but it features a new team with quite a lot of personality between them and character development to boot. Noir setting with lots of atmosphere helps.
As a fellow RPG fan I would recommend it.
