Still thinking what's more embarrassing, having a Gaint enemy crab in your presentation or revealing Skype as a selling point for you newest console..
But seriously that was an hour wasted for me.
Mentioning Skype as a "cool" feature of the Xbox One is a joke. My 55" Samsung tv has a built in HD webcam with a Skype app, and it does not cost me anything extra. This presentation is probably exciting if you are in the US with all the ESPN and NFL deals, but i'm dutch and over here we don't have any of that. And all that other TV stuff is just useless here. I got a mediabox from my ISP which allows me to watch tv on any device in my house and lets me record 6 programs at the same time so i don't miss anything (not that there is anything worth recording). The only thing it does not have is voice activation and i can not change channels by moving my hands around like a mime. And whats up with that, moving your hands to go to your home screen.. i know i'm probably a bit old fashion but WTF ever happened to a simple home button on the controller.
I'm a real gamer, and i think most of the xbox users are too, and i don't care about all that multimedia crap on my console. I got enough other device for that. I want games, really awesome games. And MS just did not show them. Yeah they will give us those at E3, but come on... you're showing of the coolest new gaming device in the world (if i need to believe MS) without showing any games.. Fail!. Ok Forza looks promising, but no actual gameplay. You let EA come on stage showing of games that will be on PS4 too, which don't even look that impressive if you ask me, and again showing no real gameplay. And end with COD as your big game selling point, which again is multiplatform. MS showed nothing for us gamers to really drool on or get excited about.
From a gamers perspective Sony looks a lot more interesting at the moment, but i hope MS (and Sony as well) got something cool for us in store at E3.
