Very meh conference.
Wasn't it supposed to be like 2 hours? I couldn't believe it when I saw the wrap up video.
Also next to no gameplay trailers. I'm not a fan of these 10 minutes live gameplay on stage but they could've shown something in a trailer.
Game Pass stuff was pretty good. Metro Exodus is probably the biggest thing yet for the service (along with Rise of the Tomb Raider when it got added). The rest wasn't as exciting. Also I feel like the other 20 games that have been added earlier today were a little more exciting. But good to know that the XGS multiplat games will also launch on GamePass (It took them a while to add Hellblade for example).
Not nearly as much AAA 3rd party stuff as usual, which isn't as bad but they gave too much time to small indie games of which most didn't look that interesting. Should've included them in the ID@Xbox section.
No Fable 4.... really?
The good stuff:
Forza 4 LEGO expansion
Double Fine being a decent AA acquisition
Keanu Reeves
Game Pass
disappointing:
Halo Infinite (graphics are pretty much current generation)
many of those 14 XGS games were just DLCs for existing games or smaller games
few surprises
Overall: 4/10
