| Wagram said: 5/10 Positives: A solid focus on games. No talking about Kinect. Games Games Games The Witcher 3 gameplay Dark Souls II MGS V (cautious about this one) Project Spark Neutral: Games didn't really show how they can be much better from the X360 outside of more fps. Titanfall. It looks intriguing, but it clearly is a online game and that didn't make it stand out too much. Halo....something Quantum Break Negative: Not too many "mindblowing" blockbusters that the XOne direly needs, or any rather. $499 price point. Seriously, did you learn nothing from Sony? Lack of information on DRM Cartoony games taking a huge focus Lack of Japanese titles Not a bad show, but not great either. A missed opportunity really. |
This is a summary I largely agree with.
I would almost put Titanfall up there as a positive though. When it was announced I was like, "how generic" but now it turns out to be somewhat original, with potential for the online gameplay to feel asymmetric and interesting, with the constant switching of scales from infantry to large vehicles. All of a sudden BF4, Killzone Shadowfall, Halo and COD started to feel a bit oldfashioned.
My personal highlight would be MGS5. Never liked MGS but this one looks phenomenal. (obviously Dark Souls 2 is even better but that I knew already)
Lots of positive impressions in this thread. Who would have thought.
I would give it a 7. It was a well registered show (apart from the glitches), and the lineup looks solid for Xbox, but the content wasn't mindblowing to me personally.
