A bit boring. Not many games. Oh well, theres still E3

My favorite part of the conference was GoGo.

This was never about games. E3 is just around the corner.

[Your Mom]

Was COD 3rd person or did that trailer just confuse me?

[apsham]

No kind of a word on my one deciding factor - backwards compatibility with the Live Marketplace?

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Completely sold me, without a doubt buying this over the PS4 now and don't even need to see the E3 to think it over.

Really good presentation. I'm still surprised they're likely going with always online, but yeah, some of that looked seriously quality.

Does the safe thing

Also didn't mention whether or not second hand games will still be a thing.

Whole thing looked shiny, but not enough details to get me sold. Makes for an exciting E3 mind.

[GoGo Yubari]

thank you, thank you, I'll be back for E3 too.

Honestly, I love insane press conferences. I am so excited for E3 and hopefully a lot of awkward paid actors on stage pretending to be totes excited about the new Kinect games.

[TKz]

I just want more multi-racial families that're super psyched about Nintendo.

[deli]

I don't see why people are saying "This is the best thing ever, Next Gen is here". Nothing in that entire conference captured my imagination. It was all Homogenized Bollocks about "taking over the living room". No, I have a TV remote for that shit. I just want to buy a video games machine. That's all. Surely I can't be the only one.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

All signs have been pointing at the Xbox 1 store being a new store altogether for months: the sudden decline in the prices of full 360 games on the marketplace, the snap sales, the sudden halt of dlc from Rock Band which has been going on for years. It's not going to be cross compatible, but the consumer is only going to find this out a month before the console launch.

Fist bump!

Xbox Live Marketplace is dead! I read it at the same place I heard that the new Xbox was definitely, definitely called the Xbox Inifinity! It must be true!

[Meacon Keaton]

I love sports games, but I also remember how insanely stripped down they were the first few years after the 360 launch.

I won't be getting any new console for a few years. Neither the PS4 or Xbox1 (lol) interest me as a casual gamer.

You expect Sony or MS to go purely games? Nintendo is trying that and it isn't working.

The reason it's not working for Nintendo is because they're going all games and then not releasing any games at all.

[Dan]

It'll be the same in the first year for Sony/MS. The new Xbox will get 15 in-house titles (half will probably be Kinect stuff) and probably 7 or 8 outside titles.

Consoles are more than just gaming machines now and so they should be.

[GoGo Yubari]

For perspective's sake.

It looks like they might be blocking used games unless you pay them for a pass

That is a good point. Of course they shouldn't focus on just games. But I think that the main philosophy of a gaming division should be gaming first, THEN living room content. Isn't that just common sense?
