How would you rate the Microsoft Conference? Everything you wanted?

Seems I misunderstood the direction they were going.

When 360 began getting all these TV apps I thought MS would create a console that replaces the cable box in your home, when in reality you still need your cable box so you can plug it into the XBox One. I was hoping it would replace the very power hungry cable boxes we have here. In reality it makes it much much worse.

I also wonder how they were changing through channels so quickly when it is reliant on a device that is obvious so much slower to change channels.


I am very skeptical of everything I just saw and am very very disappointed in the overall conference. It truly is E3 or bust now.

That's a pretty good point... Wouldn't be a first for MS to stage all their stuff when they present them.  Kinect Star Wars anyone?

In any case, I'm not sold on the system yet. But it's only the reveal. It will most likely grow on me over time, or sink badly if it remains what I think it is.
