Some of you may remember that Phil Spencer made this bold announcement before E3

@mattscanna We should have as much new content at Gamescom as we will at E3.

So now that both shows are over what do you think, did he deliver?

I can't remember the exact words, but if he indeed said "new" content, then it is a definitive: no, they didn't.

EDIT: Twitter links confirm it.

Of course he delivered. Or else he would be a liar. Phil isn't a liar.

What did they have new? Halo Wars 2? Homefront, if counting third-party, and that Mojang title which was okay. What else?

Edit:  Wait, he was probably being tricky with "content" so he could include new footage like Halo multiplayer and Scalebound.

Scalebound was the only thing I thought looked really amazing that they showed.

I haven't played any of the previous Crackdowns so I don't know what to think of Crackdown 3 but it looks good I guess.

Quantum Break looked really bland from a gameplay perspective imo. They have a really cool concept of using the time to your advantage but it seems like just standard shooting you would see in any other game.

The thing is aside from Halo Wars 2 they didn't actually have anything that was new as in nobody knew about it yet. I really thought they were going to announce a new Battletoads after all the talk of Rare Replay and seeing one of them in Killer Instinct is cool but I was dissapointed. 

He lied... that was obvious from start.

E3 will always have more new content than Gamescom for MS... E3 is US focused when they really have a good name.

If MS really showed more big guns at Gamescom than E3 then they need to fire all the marketing team.

Clearly now

Maybe full of content mean for him is = more games trailer of the previous announcement, well maybe not new games announcement but more of game trailer with real time graphic not CGI, but overall he was a bit of unclear with that twit post.

I still don't get why so many people (and gaming media) worship Phil Spencer so much. He's a politician, he talks a lot but rarely delivers.

He's not lying, he's just playing semantics. A new trailer is always technically new content even if it's not a new announcement. Problem is fans often can't read between the lines
That there was nothing new and that there was new content are both true
