I want to see their games, everything else can wait. Microsoft is only giving themselves a two week window to gain buzz until E3 and that could be either good or bad.

I thought the invitation said this was to show an overview of the future of gaming entertainment and TV while E3 was where they'll show most of the games?  I could have read that wrong on IGN though.

If I was Microsoft I would've shown the entertainment features at least a week ago and yes left it to E3 to show the games. They are waiting so long its looking like the PS4 really had them back reeling for ideas. I hope they kill it, despite what people think of me I've always hoped Microsoft kills it. Sad part is they don't, but its a new gen.

As I mentioned in a previous thread, the ms employees I have spoken to all felt Sony dropped the ball, something I actually disagree with.  However their reason for thinking this way apparently has to do with the lack of forward thinking Sony has put into the ps4.  Apparently, cloud gaming wasn't enough. 

My guess is ms is going to be pushing the 3d environment a lot more than people are expecting and they feel that is the future.  Personally, I like where Sony is headed with the ps4 and it's game centered focus. 

The PS4 reveal felt very iterative to me.  If the NeXbox reveal is the same, I'm going to be pretty lukewarm on this gen initially.  If what you stated about the employees is actual (sorry, but there is too much junk flying around), then that would be more of what I'm hoping for.
