Support NeoGAF

[dealer-]

Seriously 1.5 years away? Fuck that noise.

Sucks, but they needed to reveal it now if Neo is releasing this year.

 

[AlimNassor]

Meh Conference. But,l amazing towards hardware and XBL.

 

[mercenar1e]

Why are they trying to act like this console will do 4K gaming? It wont.

4K on low/medium settings seems like a good possibility.

 

[karasu]

Terrible conference. Scorpio is interesting but the games weren't.

 

[Waterdrop]

They really did a incredible job on messaging on project scorpio.

 

[black070]

I mean.. even if it hadn't all been leaked, that was pretty lacklustre.

 

[DrForester]

 

[PeskyToaster]

Err... That GPU Aline will cost you $20 shy of $400.

This machine will likely be between $400-500.

And get 4k gaming at respectable performance? Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooood luck.

 

[Deaf Spacker]

Not a bad conference although I'm now debating getting the One S.

 

[Lingitiz]

Man if you're Nintendo right now, any predictions or plans you had are just thrown for a loop. Scorpio next year and being crazy powerful, Neo probably this year, what does NX even end up being?

 

[ieptbarakat]

I give it a Windows10/10

 

[GHG]

No Crackdown is a serious fucking concern.

Not enough clouds in LA.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Can't wait to go home and actually watch the conference instead of following live blogs. Sounds like an amazing show. Cheers!

 

[Hex]

Why bother announcing it with some shitty buzz word video?

Because they have nothing yet, but want to get their announcement out there before the other two announce new hardware tonight and tomorrow

 

[Pattycakes]

So is Project Scorpio the confirmed name for the console then? I was expecting them to rebrand it to the Xbox name.

 

[Plum]

EA: 3/10
Bethesda: 4/10
Microsoft: 5/10

Slowly creeping up...

 

[Black Republican]

Yeah, it will be really awkward now that Microsoft made their move.

I don't see the point. Sonys doing fine

 

[fr0st]

HUH?!?

 

[Daria]

Scorpio is going to cost like $500 and flop 6 times over

 

[Vincent Alexander]

So that was weak. Crossplay and crossbuy were the biggest announcement I cared about. Should've ended with that.

 

[RS4-]

All I got out of it: Cuphead, crossbuy and...uhh.

Yeah.

 

[-griffy-]

This shit is getting real. Dying to see what Sony has in store.

 

[Kuro]

Overall bad conference, everything is coming to PC and please be excited for our next console.

 

[CrazyHal]

Good conference overall. Scalebound and Recore look pretty good.

 

[WadeitOut]

This is so misleading.

4K gaming in the console space, at a console price, is a joke.

You can play in 4k on 6TF. Not at high frame rates but you can.

 

[Boogdud]

Outside of cross play and Scorpio that was one big yawn.

 

[Version 3.0]

I'm sorry but this is complete BS. I refuse to believe that Scorpio can play games at 4k at a reasonable frame rate. 1000+ dollar PCs struggle with 4K so how can this thing play games at 4K.

Most likely the same way the 360 ran games at 1080p - by not actually doing it. It'll run at some resolution above 1080p and scale the rest of the way to 4k.

 

[MetatronM]

So why in the world would you buy an Xbox One S now?

 

[brawly]

Same as the last couple of years: great pacing, enjoyable to watch, but ultimately lackluster content.

 

[AlphaK]

I really loved the pace and presentation of this conference, everybody else should take notes from this on how to do a E3 press conference.

 

[Fergie]

Sony might really be fucking up not talking about neo tonight.

They could mention it but not the specs.

 

[Z3M0G]

Crackdown? What happened?

The cloud

 

[TheSlySoul]

3/5 not bad, too much boring but mainly gameplay trailers kept it from sucking compared to yesterday.
Glad console generations are dead!

 

[pbayne]

Average conference for me, taken down by some truly awful game demos.

 

[Memento]

5/10

 

[McBryBry]

I actually change my score. 8/10. 9 is too high. Was very good though!

EA: 4/10
Bethesda: 7/10

 

[Daft Punk]

Announcing Scorpio so early is a double edged sword. Yes, you put pressure on Sony, but they forget Sony is in the driver's seat. This essentially gives Sony a wide open slate to do whatever they need to before Scorpio launches. This next 18 months is going to be insane. Conference wise it was terrible though. Just as bad as yesterday IMO.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

So this is what a MS conference looks like when they're firmly in 2nd place and have lost all of their DLC/exclusive deals...

 

[Whompa02]

Why bother announcing it with some shitty buzz word video?

to dupe people into getting hyped for a dream

 

[Lumine]

How will this NOT kill Xbox One sales?

Can't kill something that's already dead! /s

Seeing a lot of excitement. All I saw was them announcing they're making another Xbox that will play the same games in 4k that's still 1.5 years away. Without something to actually show. It doesn't even have a name yet.

 

[Karak]

Not enough clouds in LA.

Moved to Scorp

 

[Cool Tools]

Xbox One S: Should have launched like this. Looks sleek. Price is fair. New controller looks good. Not including a controller is just embarrassing though, a transparent way to dupe people by being able to claim you've reduced price but can't. Way worse than the 3DS power adapter fuckup.

It Doesn't include a controller?!!!!!

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

Bleh, only really cared about We Happy Few which isn't xb1 exclusive, State of Decay and Sea Of Thieves which I wish was single player only. 4/10

 

[jeffc919]

I'm so excited. Bring on the Scorpio. Day one

Same...assuming Sony doesn't raise the bar further...I just wish it wasn't over a year away.

 

[MrPressStart]

Sea of Thieves
State of Decay 2
Dead Rising 4
Recore

Other than that I was not impressed that much. The new consoles will be cool and Gears 4 should be fun.... Curious to see what Sony has.

 

[kulapik]

Guys, Microsoft has more announcements in some other outlets (the Geoff show, for example), that's where you'll get crackdown

 

[LastOne2100]

Not a lot of completely new reveals at all. Mostly just showing status on already announced titles - still a lot of good stuff.

For Microsoft - 8/10.
For Xbox - 3/10. Really hurts to have absolutely nothing be unique or better on Xbox anymore.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

Not many games we hadn't seen before.

...and it must be something new to announce new hardware so early without showing anything at all. Desperation?

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Remember when Xbone was going to have more RAM than PS4?

No way Sony just gives up the hardware advantage.

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

So wait do i buy a xbox one, a xbox one slim or wait for a scorpion? Im soo confused three choices aahh ahh ahhh

Wait for Scorpio, you'll want that extra power for 4k when/if you upgrade to a 4k tv down the road (if you haven't already).
