Well fallout 4 mods are first in Xbox and the division has content first and beta first. But that was announced last yearIs this the first MS conference with no announced exclusive "on XB1 first" DLCs or exclusive DLCs all together?
Damn.

Damn.
Overall:
The EA bit was useless.
Forza should have had a gameplay demo
Gears of War 4 demo should have been shorter, more grittier. Would not be surprised if they put this together at last moment
Halo Lens demo was ok.
Should have had some stuff on QB, Scalebound, Crackdown. Just trailers (in-game)
Mods.For.Console.
If this continues with TES VI, I'll be one happy gamer.

We can see the magnetic D-pad wich seems to be a good and simple solution.
I was watching the MS conference with two of my friends and this was the only game that made us all really excited and say "We got to play that!"... and none of us own a Xbox One, fuck.The more I watch the trailer, the more I think my game of E3 is Sea of Thieves
Just the whole vibe of it, plus the stunning art style is mesmerizing
I feel like the UI is a big deal and should've been in the conference not announced after somewhere else.
Game looked broken last year, seems they've been working hard to make it half decent.

It would be really amusing if they really show Crackdown at Gamescom as the two predecessors are banned in germany...Yeah, probably at Gamescom.

Microsoft should have shown the UI somewhere a little bigger and public, maybe a second show straight after the conference rather than mixed in the middle of a lot of other stuff. Cortana is going to make it absolutely amazing.
I find it interesting that MS/Sony appear to have swapped roles somewhat this E3.
Microsoft have gone from:
Apparently being an anti-consumer company with the DRM debacle
Ramming TV/TV/TV down gamers throats
Making people buy peripherals they don't want
Being the more expensive console
Having a poor focus on indies
Being a "COD shooter box"
to:
Giving gamers access to treasured games through Rare's collection
Giving FREE backwards compatibility
Giving free demoes to players under the preview programme
Making it much easier for independent developers to come to xbox through windows 10
Giving indies much more prominence at E3
Being the cheaper console
Providing OPTIONAL peripherals
Giving up COD
Dropping TV,TV,TV
Focused more on first party games at this E3
Meanwhile, Sony appears to have:
Given only paid for backwards compatibility which doesn't always work
Become the more expensive console
Picked up TV,TV,TV in a big way
Become the "COD shooter-box"
Lost focus on first party games this E3
Tried to claim reflected glory by promoting Shenmue 3 without financially supporting it at themselves and shaking a tin at gamers through Kickstarter
Interesting times.
Joke post? They mentioned tv for 2 minutes max lol. I like how you ignore everything else like horizon, dreams.etccv. they showed ad many first party as ms. Ridiculous.I find it interesting that MS/Sony appear to have swapped roles somewhat this E3.

Now I'm hoping that Gamescom focuses on 2016+

How does Fable still not have a date yet!
it was on the gamespot live show scheduleMicrosoft should have shown the UI somewhere a little bigger and public, maybe a second show straight after the conference rather than mixed in the middle of a lot of other stuff. Cortana is going to make it absolutely amazing.
Plus we still have the PC show tonight...
-Halo Wars 2 with crossbuy?
-Minecraft update?
Did Siege not get a "DLC first on Xbox" thing?
Is this the first MS conference with no announced exclusive "on XB1 first" DLCs or exclusive DLCs all together?
Damn.
So ps4 is the shooterbox now, while they showed stuff like dreams, last guardian, horizon, worlds of ff, ...
Weird reasoning, just because they picked up cod.
Ms had a solid showing, but a pretty safe one too. And one that pretty much focusedon games we allready knew about + new stuff they barely showed anything of. Exactly what i expexted from ms actually. Halo, forza, gears. Tomb raider. None of those demos were truly inspiring imo (halo and tr are day one for me anyway) Rare new ip was a highlight... Sony did what i expected from them too: show a tad more variety and originality, next to established mainstream stuff. And then those bombshells. And how did they lose focus on first party if they showed TLG, Horizon, uncharted 4 and Dreams, while they showed r&c, uncharted trilogy, tearaway just before e3?
Can't imagine how you came to reasoning roles have shifted. Ms has transformered for the better, sony is still sony. Gamers win because they finally are on par again
Also, i am pretty sure sony will partly fund shenmue 3. That kickstarterbudget would not cut the development costs anyway

Love how Xbox exclusive = aliasing
+ Win10 exclusive = no aliasing.
How did they do? How did sony do? I am so out of the loop.Good luck MS!
I hope they can deliver
I'm a bit worried about Scalebound after that Square conference. Does Platinum have the personnel to simultaneously develop Scalebound, Transformers and Nier2?

There's a reason for all of this. Microsoft chose to split their announcements and games between E3 and Gamescom, whereas Sony decided to forego Gamescom and focus completely on E3 (Tokyo Game Show may come into play though). If Microsoft had done the same, you'd have yesterday's conference plus Scalebound, Quantum Break and Crackdown - on top of whatever announcements they have lined up for Gamescom. It remains to be seen which tactic will prove to be more fruitful.
As for Shenmue 3, I doubt Sony is funding it. Didn't they say something along the lines of "We have nothing to do with this project, but wanted to give the project some exposure?" If Sony were funding it, I doubt they'd allow it to go to PC since that's typically something they don't do for larger titles - and they'd likely be publishing it. SF5 has a PC version, but that's only because the franchise has an existing competitive fan base utilizing that platform.
I just remembered that Prince Of Persia was in the opening highlight reel yet was a no show. Maybe a Gamescom announcement?

Sony is having another conference at Paris games week so sony also split announcements.... Sony has more to show too not just ms. Having one on the fall is better imo GamesCom is too close to E3 and gives sony more time to get demos ready and it spreads out announcements more.There's a reason for all of this.

People are saying sony focused all on e3 and skipping GamesCom, making it seem like ms has more to show...Sony is having another conference in Paris as GamesCom is too close to E3 this yeat . Yikes people. Sony has a lot left to show many of their studios projects are still not revealed.
It's a better strategy imo.
