Not really impressed but I'm never impressed with Fps, certainly not when there are so many.
Ryse and Killer Instinct: nice and the world building thing (can't remember the name) was very cool although i'm not into it.
Some games look really good though, but that's not what's gonna make me buy a console.

Big plus are the features the Xboxone has.

Overall a decent presentation, no fuckups and a lot of games.

hmmm there was nothing from Epic Games? or did I miss something on that awful GT stream

Great conference if you minus the expensive price tag.

Pros:
1. MGS V to kick off your conference. I still need to get use to Kiefer. It really felt weird and awkward when I heard Keifer's Voice. It really seems out of place maybe because I am really use to hearing Hayter's voice.
2. Games! Games! Games!
3. Dead Rising 3 exclusive my game of the MS conference.
4. Titanfall

Cons:
1. Ryse Sorry didn't like it.
2. That spark game.
3. Price tag.





That Halo trailer really gave me chills. My God I can't wait for that!



They actually delivered. And offcourse left out some games for later in the year



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Watching live on Spike TV was a blessing.  Can't believe they're choosing to play Dodgeball later and are not streaming Sony's conference.  I have to become a frustrated online streamer :'(.



It's all about the game.

Will the Twitch deal help them over the PS4's Ustream service?

The crazy thing is there are still unannounced titles yet to come (Fable, Banjo, summer of arcade, and who knows what else).



No Crackdown 3!?



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

I must admit that the Sony fan in me is trying to shove his fingers in his ears and go "Lalalalalalala" very loudly, but this was a very good conference. It reminds me of the Nintendo one from a few years back.
Would have been excellent had they addressed the DRM issues and the controversy surrounding some of the machine's features, but it was more than decent.

There are a few stand outs, of course, like Ryse, the coveted Killer Instinct, Titanfall and Project Spark. These have the making of greatness about them and I really hope they all come out smelling rosy.

So yeah, a very good opening for E3 and a strong showing for Microsoft. There's great stuff coming up and I really hope Sony can match this.

I'm also skeptical of the Insomniac games, after what happened with Fuse. It was the same sort of presentation at the last E3 for Overstrike and look where that ended up. Those guys are a bit schizo when it comes to quality and they seem to sway too much. I really hope they drive home this one, maybe it'll be the Overstrike we all actually wanted to play.

Kudos Microsoft. Great kick off for the new console wars. Let it pour.
