6/10. The first 20min were good but after that it got boring.

I thought it was a very good conference 8/10

I'm really not liking how Tombraider has changed even more though. They've concentrated so heavily on combat that I have a feeling the 'tombraiding' will feel like an afterthought.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


7/10 the middle was bad, good beginning and end.

about a 7/10.

Most eye catching games: Homefront/Darksouls/Scalebound.

 

*Notes:

Halo multiplayer looked much better than the mess they showed at E3 (maybe because this time it was 2 professional teams playing).

Still I think most people would rather have seen more single player campagne gameplay instead.

Just in case you don't know, the "messy" stuff you saw at E3 is a single game mode called Warzone, not representative of the whole multiplayer experience of Halo 5. The pro teams played classic 4v4 arena multiplayer, which I also prefer.

And yep, I'm quite pissed at the lack of the campaign during the conference. Halo Wars 2 made me happy though :D

edit:

OP: 6/10

Good beginning, boring middle, good end! Nothing against the presenters but some were just too nervous, and those following the streams probably saw the many of them reading their parts. Just seemed less professional compared to their E3 conference, and the (good, but not fitting) Halo 5 commentators didn't help either IMO.



Like a 6.5/10?

They didn't really have a standout announcement outside of Halo Wars 2
Overall they showed more gameplay and better gameplay demos than at E3
But jesus the middle was tedious as fuck
Looking at the exclusives I'm only jealous of Scalebound

I didn't watche... just read the what happened in the live stream.

So no score.



7/10

Too much time spent on indie and nothing new other then Halo wars.



5/10 They didn't show enough Forza 6.



Woah I thought it was actually pretty good. But then again I was super sleeply so I feel asleep throughout a lot of it, but what I caught was awesome, but judging by the comments I must have only watched the beginning and the end. So I'll put no score to this one.



There's only 2 races: White and 'Political Agenda'
2 Genders: Male and 'Political Agenda'
2 Hairstyles for female characters: Long and 'Political Agenda'
2 Sexualities: Straight and 'Political Agenda'

8/10
They showed 2 GOTY contenders for 2016 in Scale-Bound and Quantum Break. Halo Wars 2 was the icing on the cake.

I thought MS's line up at E3 was great, this overshadowed it again, they saved the best to last.

Got boring in the middle, but thats expected with most press conferences.

Passable.
