Guess well have to wait for some poor soul to do a second by second comparison of game footage in each conference before the world finally has an answer to this question. |
It really seems like an answer coming from a defeated contender. "Yeah yeah, of course what we've shown was new ! It was the next level of the game we've shown twice already, and with a different camera angle ! Do you understand, a DIFFERENT camera angle ! Brand new content, world premiere !".
You could show only 3 games with different gameplay footages for 3 years in a row if you want (with different gameplay footage each time), but it isn't what we should call "new content". Tomb Raider, Halo, Forza, even Quantum Break are not new content, we've seen similar footage before (yes, we've already seen a "gameplay" footage of QB, and not that different... the actors change, that's pretty much it). Games like Just Cause 3 or Dark Soul 3 branded "World premiere" are just laughable at best.
Good for you if you're happy with what was shown. I'm kinda happy too to see that I miss nothing "new" on the Xbox, a new footage of a previously announced game isn't a new reason to buy a console. No other MS conference this year, so I apparently won't miss anything in 2015 or 2016 (next conference will be E3 2016, about 2016 Holiday, that's pretty far...). And like I said in another thread, this conference clearly shows that Xbox will become a PC gaming brand (at least half of the conference was about PC, something like that ?), so we can try Sea of thieves, Halo Wars 2, Gears and others on PC, without having to buy a Xbox.
Well, I guess you're right in the end, it's a good conference for everyone ^^. Xbox owner are happy about their games, PC gamers are happy about almost the same games and the money saved, PS4 owners are happy because Xbox definitly lost the war today and PS4 will have a lot of exclusive third party content/games this gen, and I think Nintendo gamers will be happy to be able to come back with the NX next year, the Xbox probably won't be a threat for this new console. Today was a good day ! :)
