Microsoft makes plenty of cash in other areas. I don't think you need to be worried about their financial state.
I believe Spencer is the guy who started this trend two e3s ago when mattrick was still in charge. And he did it last e3 as well, along with gamescom.
I saw twitter earlier and one of top trends was phil and battletoads.
He's fashion trend setter lol.
But OT: can't wait for this game.
Why would I trust you?
I'd rather just wait until they confirm the details.
Besides, I imagine such a capability is a bit ways off anyways.
Now this would be just great.
Streaming from my xbox one to my laptop already sounds awesome, but if they actually manage to pull this off as well, I'll be one happy gamer.
Isn't Alex Kipman the main guy behind HoloLens?
@Spid3r6
No, I didn't watch the psx.
But it's cool that they do this stuff.
Pretty wicked.
Haha...
yeah, that battletoads shirt was a nice touch.
Phil and his shirts lol.
I don't play minecraft much, but my kid does.
He'll be psyched to learn of this.
Yes.
Free for first year.
Dang...was totally not expecting to see something like that from Microsoft today.
Really cool.
15 minutes??
I experienced those sort of times only on the first day of beta launch.
The rest of the time (about 3 weeks), I was getting into matches pretty instantly (like anywhere from 10 seconds to 1 minute), pretty much on-spot with previous Halo games, which is pretty great for a beta one year out from release.
I'm also more of a BTB guy.
I really do hope the pelican makes a return for Halo 5. It was a shame that no air-based UNSC vehicle was in Halo 4.
A second beta for Halo 5 (for BTB mode) should definitely be considered by 343.
While the Halo 5 beta (which was fun as heck) ran helluva better than Halo MCC when it launched, it still had matchmaking/server issues.
They're going to need to test Halo 5 more, especially in BTB, where several friends will want to party up and play together (they need to absolutely nail this stuff prior to launch to avoid any launch woes).
And regarding Halo MCC: while matc...
Thank god they dumped the subscription model from the game. Still bummed about the in-game items you have to pay for, but at least now I'll actually consider getting the game without having to worry about shelling out money for xbl/psn + eso monthly.
Come on...don't be that guy.
I wouldn't hold your breath for any game announcements. Phil already said that the event is focused more on hardware/software capabilities.
I was going to watch the event for windows 10 stuff anyways, but these sort of comments have me more curious about this windows 10/xbox synergy.
Looks like they're drastically changing up the mp/party experience.
I'm just glad they aren't simply abandoning this game like so many other devs do.
