Damn. I just asked you in your wall about this, then I realize you did open a thread xD Now I know.

So what did you think about the reveal mate?


Well...hummm, I found the Skype integration intriguing, to say the least; but the voice command or the in-screen inputs from your mobile device aren't great for my tastes. I like the fact that they set up everything to work from the One (Don't like the name, but it's way better than Infinite) so you don't have to rely on your TV anymore. Like a Cable box. I despite this, though. That's not what I wanted them to focus in the Reveal. They could have put some games working way better with Kinect and I'd love it more.

However, their main focus was the american multimedia, so I can't really picture that working here, over Spain. Quantum Break looks interesting, but the part with real actors was soooo unnecesary. I don't like Call of Duty, but hey, Forza 5 looks cool too. The controller is what I like most. Feels interesting, and until I hold it in my hands I won't be able to make an opinion, but it feels confortable just looking at it. And way more beautiful than the 360's, despite being similar. The console! A bit big, and a bit edgy, but beautiful. I'm just sad they chose Black over White (No racist pun intended, I can picture Badgenome coming here only to remark this part); as for me, I've always liked more the 360 when it was white. In fact, I bought the Slim version of Halo Reach, despite not loving Halo after the third one, because the console is Platinum, and it feels like the ol' great 360 back in 2006.

I was disappointed with several remarks after the reveal, such as the fee. I've never minded that because I'm the only one among my friends who own a 360, so If I had to play games with them, I had to take my console to their houses. But yeah, feels cheap. Like a fuckin' steal, if you don't mind xD The only redeem I can see for them with this is that they drop the Live fee in E3. That would shut up some mouths. Ah, and more games (I don't know why I thought they would show Dead Rising 3 exclusive to One, but it would have been awesome). They are in a bad position now but if they're clever, they'll trump the competition in E3.

Interesting thoughts, I agree with some of them.

Call of Duty really did nothing to convince me to start buying them again, especially when Battlefield 4 is coming for the Xbox One, personally not in the slightest concerned about the used game fee stuff, but that's just me. I buy games to play and keep, I'm not fond of selling or buying used games really.

Would have liked to see an Dead Rising 3 as well, I guess we can hope for E3 buy for some reason I doubt it's happening.
