I went with an 8 overall. What impressed me the most was the overall flow of the conference. They literally went from game to game to game. Also Platinum Games exclusive as well! Halo Collections! I ask those who say "there were no surprises" what if you didn't know any of the leaks? Platinum exclusive, or Phantum Dust. Halo Collection getting 4 Halo games, over 100 maps, and classic multiplayer. Then what would you score it from that standpoint.
I do agree there was too much emphasis on multiplats, but I felt the content was solid.

Whether you knew about the leaks or not, at the end of the day, 95% of the conference was multiplats and old Xbox games. Are you going to drop $400 on an XBone to play Halo 2? Are you going to pick an XBone over PS4 because of The Witcher 3..which is also on the PS4? Was Phantom Dust even that well received to warrant a remake? According to VGC, it only sold 110K. Should you really be going nuts over a game that, essentially, no one cared for?

As a "games" conference, it was decent. As an "MS" conference, it was sub-par.
