15 1st party exclusives in the 1st year hardly says that.  This was about hardware.

You mean about harware, like in:

-no mention of cpu

-no mention of gpu

-no mention of Kinect2 capabilities

-no mention of backward compatibility

-no mention of ram rumours

-no showing anything actually running on the new box ?

I agree with that list pretty much but another negative is that Kinect is forced on you to use the console



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

only positive stuff i saw at that conference was the controle design and console shown, the rest is stuff i dont care.

So you didn't care about Sony's conference?

So far you have to have it on but you don't have to interact with it.

did you saw kinect stuff, sports stuff, tv stuff at sony reveal?

I saw a kinect knock off. The rest was people playing with puppet. Some Japanese folks showing some real struggle with English and some cut scenes like in Xbox One presentation.

Well that was a flawless victor. Sony might as well exit now before they lose too much money.

Oh my goodness, you could be the new Pachter! (Except... ah well, I'll go with it.)

That's a big plus for me. I watch soccer, football and Basketball every week religiously on Xbox Live.

Defeats the point in having to plug it in then don't it?

That Xbox Reveal was utterly horrendous. Quantum Break might be neat because it's from the Alan Wake creators, but even that is disappointing considering Remedy has now pretty much admitted to putting the Alan wake franchise on hold and they didn't even wrap up the story. Alan Wake was fantastic and I'm disappointed that there's a good chance the franchise won't continue for some time. I guess I'll wait to see what Remedy says about Alan Wake in their video they are releasing tomorrow. But one thing is for sure, Xbox One doesn't appeal to me at all at this point. Most likely Wii U + PS4 for me next gen.
