He most likely means 'Publishers' in general will have too many announcements. Since MS will spend most of E3 showing off all of their partners new products, they are going to have to be creative in how to showcase theirs. Don't forget, MS's new slogan is 'why create your own content when you can just pay a publisher to do it for you'

Killer Instinct, Quantum Break, Project Spark, Black Tusk, Halo 5, Kinect Sports Rivals, Fable Legends, Crimson Dragon, Ryse, Forza 5, Loco and Max all being 1st party/2nd Party ...

Ignoring Titanfall, Peggle 2, Garden Warfare, D4, Below, Dead Rising 3, Fantasia ect from third parties/indies ...

Their E3 conference was back to back exclusives.

He specifically talks about first party too.

MS has stated and reiterated for years now, it's not smart to invest in creating your own games when you can pay someone else to do it for you; and they have specifically cited Sony as an example of why not to do it.

We're getting a decent Xbone launch of games that runs through 2014, after that  ...

Look, you can read into things however is best for you. I really don't have a horse in the race. I own all consoles and my PC kicks ass. And I'm excited, very much so for the Xbone. I want them all to be awesome, I own all of them, or will soon enough (WiiU launch, I was there, still there). I'm just not going to forget how MS has positioned itself over the last 2 years, I'm not. And my favorite game is Forza, but I am vehemently oppsode to how they treat the loyal fanbase of that game. So please, allow me to be a critical consumer. I am on your side 100%. We're all on the same side.
