Microsoft: 18:00 (6pm) on Monday.

Halo 4 video and gameplay was shown. "Ancient enemy". Looking like a very Metroid Prime style level - isolation etc.

Splinter Cell: Blacklist.
New splinter cell title to do with terrorists (original). Looks pretty, fluid combat, Kinect voice integration. Spring 2013.

EA Sports. Madden 13. Kinect voice commands. August.

Fifa 13 with Kinect. Fifa voice commands show, make subs and tactic choices by speaking - eliminates a sub menu. Autumn this year.

[it seems like the focus has shifted from motion controls to voice commands with Kinect]

Fable The Journey shown. Looks really average and dated. Out "Holiday" 2012

Gears of War Judgement. 2013... Looks same old same old.

Forza Horizon. October 2012. Realistic forza graphics with an open world context.


Entertainment providers expanded.
Xbox music service.
Nike service. Personalised training using Kinect.


Xbox SmartGlass.
Smart devices across the board working with Xbox content.
To be honest I just want to play the game or watch the film, not fanny about on an app.

Internet Explorer coming to Xbox.


Tomb Raider - looks very action based. DLC on Xbox first.

New Game:

Ascend new gods. Fantasy slasher. 2013

LocoCycle from Twisted Pixel.

Matter. Kinect game. 2013. Looks to be about balls and changing environments.

Resident Evil 6. Looks great, but uses quick time events far to frequently in my view.

XBLive Wreckateer. Kinect controlled destruction game. like angry birds.

South Park. The Stick of Truth.

Dance Central is back feat. Usher.

Final title shown. COD:BO2. same old same old.

Hopefully not more Kinect shit.

I know of three things - more Halo 4 reveal, a new Gears of War game and an application that lets you stream your computer/phone/tablet display to your TV via your Xbox 360.

I'm going to miss this one as I have to go hospital visiting again so I hope there will be a good summary!

I'm going to miss it too but should be back around ten this evening so will watch and give you guys the lowdown, but like I said, please discuss and post things!!!

I'm not going out tonight, will miss Nintendo's event tomorrow instead so I can babble on about Microsoft in here.

I'll be missing it as I'm just heading out to the cinema

Anyone watching? I am but I wish I wasn't.

The only thing that interested me so far was slightly curiosity about Halo 4 but the rest has been total bollocks.

I DON'T WANT FUCKING KINECT OR ESPN!

Why the eff would I want to look at my phone or tab (not that I have one) when I watch a movie? If I want all that I buy the blue ray and watch enhanced viewing.

Uuhh Game of Thrones. Highlight of this presentation.

Hi Ic1

It looks like they are keeping Xbox next well and truly under wraps until next E3.

Hello, to you, sexy.

When did x-box become a tv console> a gaming console.

I don't care about any of this shit so far.

Hi Kelly

Same here, I mean I don't have an X-Box but even if, I wouldn't care for anything I've seen so far.

If Tomb Raider didn't look like a complete Uncharted clone before...

This Tomb Raider is the best thing they've shown so far.

And they already have the dlc, did they not realize by now that consumers hate that shit?

Hmm, Ascend looks intriguing.

So whats the news ?

I was just about to buy an xbox. Should I wait ?

No wait, Phil. They are not bringing out anything new until fall 2013.

Ah it's getting itneresting now. Resi 6!
Resi looked good, pretty much back to 4.

Seriously? she's trying to sell that game as the next big thing we're all excited about?



Stick of Truth could actually be amazeballs.

Loved the comment from the South Park man about controlling the oven from the refrigerator.

WTF is this? Is this the Usher show now? I know they didn't have much to show but they could have just shorten the conference instead of filling it with irrelevant non gaming stuff.
Lame!

At least usher was better than that NFL guy who had no no clue how to help sell a product lol.

But it was so irrelevant. At the very least they should have him play the actual game.
Even when they finally put the game in the background it wasn't even in sync with him.
It was just odd and weird.

Jeez, I hope the PS conference is better than this effort. As long as it's not full of Vita crap.

I want it to be full of Vita stuff!!

This one is kinda boring. Zzz

What do you think?
Neither M$ nor Sony have actually new stuff to show so they just gonna push what they have. God knows the Vita needs all the pushing it can get.

I cant watch this dull fest anymore, I'm off.
Ima gonna miss the EA conference because of Thrones final but will be back for Ubisoft. Might see you then folks.

Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Does Halo 4 at least look decent?

No new Rare games as usual

I scanned my Joystiq app in the pub and we were all Lol.

Sounds shite.

I'm going to watch it in a mo

Halo 4... Just reminds me of Metroid Prime... but you know, shit.

Have you even played a Halo game for more than an hour, with friends?

There's a reason why the franchise is so successful you know.

Brainless violence addicted Americans?

Or you know, because the game has excellent gameplay, but I guess this is lost on someone who doesn't play fps or someone who barely gives a non Nintendo franchise a chance

I was actually quite impressed with Halo 4, technically. Although I was watching on a shitty low-res stream (thanks Gametrailers, you're were useless) the graphics looked like they could be next-gen!

You are such a graphics whore Ic1

you're right though, it does look pretty

It's my PC upbringing.

I have played through Halo 3 with my Bro.

Was boring.


My issue at the moment is, sure these games are looking gorgeous, but, what about disc space? Making a game look pretty requires sacrifices in story, or multiple discs.


Overall what a boring presser. Glad I could skip all the sports shite.

Like Mass Effect 3

Have you seen Forza Horizon, guv'nor?

Looks like my kind of racer - not circuit based but open world and more of an arcadey feel than a technical simulation.

Disappointed that Shadow Complex 2 was missing but I'm trying to remember what that game was that looked similar - a side based shoot-em-up. Can anyone recall?

"Deadlight" it's called.

*insert disc2*



It was actually the quickest transition I've seen.

Yeah and then you go off and do an N7 mission.

*please insert disc 1*

Continue with quest

*please insert disc 2*
