Also 50% of the posts in the first OT are just console warriors fighting with each other and boring tech talk, while the PS4 thread was pure hype.

At least the second OT is going better so far...

I went through the entire thread and it most definitely wasn't 50% warrior fighting, we actually did a good job keeping the trolls out.

That thread hit maximum without a single leak either.
 
I'm calling it now!

XBOX 3
16GB storage
Exact same controller
10-15% weaker than PS4
Launching october 15th for $299

I expect none of that to happen, but if it does I can go back and quote this ridiculous post.

Man, this reveal is getting tons more hype than the the PS4 Meeting on GAF. I'm genuinely surprised.

Am I just forgetting the industry excitement before the Sony event or does there seem to be more surrounding this one? I find that pretty strange. Who knows, maybe the wait has just gotten people more ready.
 
On the GT show, prediction for Microsoft opening up with just bam, showing the console.

The hype would explode if they did this. Just say "fuck it, here it is!"

16 gb of storage would be like a vestigial organ.

Doubt it, they are probably going to have a covered box on the center of the stage all the way through to tease us and finally show us with a big reveal, like the slim.

It should start with the lights dimmed, and then one spotlight turns on. But look! A 720 is hanging in the air by a string! It dangles for a few moments, and then the rope is cut loose, dropping the console into J Allard's hands.

"The new Xbox," he says.

The crowd goes wild and pisses themselves. The world may be at peace once again.
 
Why would they care whose on what multiplayer?

Its the reason cited for Halo 3 ODST including Halo 3s MP and not something new. Same with Halo CEA not including Halo 1 MP, but rather a map pack for Reach.

And, it make sense, sadly. Unless they were radically different and didn't completely compete against each other, I don't really see another Halo MP game til Halo 5.
 
New IP.

Why I can't feel the hype in this thread? I don't know but the another thread was more positive than this.

Because this thread is now following the preshows which tend to be on the below average quality side and because it's the calm before the storm. It'll get really hyper tomorrow morning obviously.

Not even the Xbox 360 had a 16GB HDD at launch.
Heck in this day and age phones are expected to be clocking 16GB easily.

If the Install to HDD option is still available for Xbox 3 then thats like 1 game or something.

Not even one game. Blu rays hold 50GB and if Durango is anything like PS4, it will require all games to be installed since a BRD is too slow for streaming all necessary data.

Yeah I was a bit exaggerating. Still, at times it felt like I entered a PS4 thread by accident, which was pretty annoying. But it is going better now :)

actually the xbox 360 had a 20GB HDD at launch if we wanna be technical.. just sayin

the bigger point is (*edit* i'm assuming he meant) the RAM though, not the HDD. lol

The 16gb for the tard pack wouldn't be that bad if they let you use an external harddrive and not make you use their overpriced proprietary bullshit.
 
There's not enough time to show off a ton of games, I'm guessing they are going to show off the console, some features a couple of games, and say, "see you at E3."

Pretty much this, they are going to start off with their road so far story. Go into hardware and new UI and finally show some games.
