Isn't Major Nelson a spokesman for Microsoft and Xbox? God, the amount you fanboys stretch the facts so that they can fit your own agenda of why one company is terrible, and the other company is a saint.

Its funny that many people thought we would see very little or even no games but all we are hearing about is games that will or may be there, this is going to be good!.
I see the trolls are in full force again?
Nothing better to do I see?
Like it or not there is a difference between a personal tweet and a official statement. A official statement is actually approved by the company as their words a personal tweet is not.
For instance the Adam Orth ordeal, just because he worked for Microsoft doesn't give his tweets any backing by Microsoft.

Well one represents a guy. The other represents an entire company.

Yeah a conference three whole months after Sony's. Obviously they were in a big hurry.
Actually, no, he isn't. He doesn't work in PR or marketing. majornelson.com is his hobby

my body is ready
Now, that's some real reveal-event food and beverages.
I'm so glad there's none of that doritos+mountain dew around here
OMG ha ha ha, have you even read your posts in this thread?, i fucking ronic.
I'll be buying both consoles as its the best of both worlds. I'm now out of here until the show starts as console war shite is just too grating to me.
Maybe I read it wrong fellow GAFfer but when you said "MS will capture the US again this gen btw" I asked if MS had really lost US in the first place.
I was asking because I don't know, honestly. But I always had the idea that the 360 was mostly sold in the US than Europe than Japan (Asia) hence why I was wondering if they lost them in the first place.
I'm in Europe btw so that's why I asked that.
What marketing have they done lately?

I will get both as well, although I will get the new Xbox first. I don't feel that waiting to announce has hurt them at all. Like I mentioned, I have seen nothing in regards to marketing for the PS4 since the announcement. We know that Microsoft is going to go full out as they always do with the new Xbox from today on. They will partner with other companies to get the name out there; it will be a massive push.

I hope Microsoft demos a game like Knack. An original ip that shows good potential.

They did with the original Xbox. They won it this gen which is why I said they will capture it again for the new one.

I have no obligations at all today expect immerse myself in all the news.
Indeed, such a slow day.

I kinda like the cocky tweets and actually wish the other 2 would jump in on the fun.
As long as Sony isnt all "work two jobs lol!", Im fine with it. The playful jabs are amusing.
I dont know what he is in the grand scheme of things but for me, hes the guy I turn to. Hes pretty level headed and seems like a cool dude. Hes actually the reason I started going to twitter.
His "reveal a console without actually showing it, thats one way" tweet is funny. And its true.

The influx of fresh Trolls makes this thread even better!
I love the smell of salty tears in the morning.
Wait? What? Soooo tasty......

They taste terrible, of course no one here consumes either of them.
I will take it but it isn't high on my list for them.
Ah I see now I got it, thanks.
Well from my interest I really hope that they show they care for Europe. There's money to be made and they should try a bit more if they care about Euro consumers (not sure how they will handle Japan to be honest).

checking in. the excitement actually woke me up faster than I would have liked. oh well CHOO CHOO
No you're right Monk, every region Microsoft has locked down with Xbox 360 they've been able to hold onto so far(US & UK) and they've never held onto Europe or Japan.

Babby's First Meltdown incoming?
No, console war shite is just cringeworthy and boring, just buy both consoles then there is no need for it.

3 more hours until this website explodes.

Exactly.
Imagine if they'd only showed the box, the controller and the UI - and that was it..
"BUT WHAT ABOUT THE GAMES MAN?! The games, it's all about the games!! Who cares about a stupid box!?!"
I bet if Microsoft does that (shows only the box etc) this thread will defend the shit out of Microsoft and go "yeah, but you gotta wait for E3 for the real bombs to drop! be patient ffs!"

but is your tent ready?
So, the Director of Programming for Xbox Live has to come out and correct the official Xbox twitter account that represents the entire company, that somehow for got that the event was only 1 hour long? So the company's official voice didn't know the length of the event, but the Director of Programming for Xbox live did?

More like 2 hours. It will definitely not make it to the start.
