I think conferences should be judged based on the situation of that console in its life-cycle, which puts more pressure on Microsoft because they are in a far trailing position. Not only do they have to showcase things that will please their current fans and console owners, they have the burden to showcase things that will attract new consumers. If you're a console owner there may be a few things you are excited about, but lets be completely honest. Nothing about this conference got non-owners excited. In my opinion as someone who owns the console I feel worse post than pre-conference. I can expect basically no new unique experience on this console. Almost all multiplatforms that won't sell best on Xbox and just more of the Halo, Gears, Forza rehashes. Where is the creativity?

For people who say this. Do you guys really expect Microsoft to drop their top 3 games. I get people might not be big fans of these games but these are the first party games that people buy an Xbox for and they have millions of dedicated fans. 

Nobody is saying releasing Halo, Gears, and Forza is a bad thing. Its when that is all you are mostly releasing...again...thats the problem. These franchises have all come out for this console generation already and its earned them a solid 3rd place. The point is they need to build upon these franchises with new experiences. Almost everything they've shown as an exclusive is a sequel, and again sequels to games that have helped earn a solid 3rd place.
