God I'm so pumped for E3, I'm glad we're starting off with Xbox, means I can get my Fable Legends/Halo gameplay right ahead of time.
And hopefully end the first day off of E3 with a Last Guardian trailer.
Phil taking the time to do a little podcast is cool, if I was him I wouldn't stop rehearsing.
@Master
4 million difference? Based on official numbers or predictions.
And sales differences can change within a season.
This is the beginning of the generation, last gen each system had 80+ million units, and now that the market is being opened up to China that increases the playerbase.
At this point you have a small fraction of people owning current gen systems, and others waiting for GAMES to sell the system to them.
We all know that this gen will be like last gen, Playstation and Xbox will end it off with a 1-3 million difference in overall hardware sales.
Because half way through it most people will own BOTH consoles due to game diversity.
You do realize why Destiny looks pretty bland right? Because Bungie is just a shell name. They did a MASSIVE amount of hiring, and the big creative heads stayed behind at 343.
There's a reason that Destiny doesn't really capture the Halo atmosphere (Or at least from what we've seen). It'll probably capture the music perfectly (For the first game).
@Mac
I don't think you did your research at all, a MASSIVE portion of the Halo team s...
The Witcher 3 will blow Destiny out of the water in terms of a quality game.
Halo 5/Uncharted 4 will both blow up E3. They'll probably have gameplay trailers.
I don't have high hopes for Destiny, because it still has to reassure the player base that there's some sort of replay value. Aside from PvP which will be showcased at E3.
I would love to see how long that slump would've lasted with the PS3. Because if it wasn't for competition they wouldn't have been pushed to release games and hit off with the PS4.
And the reveal of the 360 wasn't bad... It was the kinect focused E3s that didn't make sense. Back in the Original Xbox days they actually had amazing E3s.
That's cool, If we could see some Witcher 3 Gameplay.
If the rumors of CD Projekt Red at Xbox conference are true.
I think Remastering TLOU/GoW: Ascension/Beyond Two: Souls would be a scream at milking.
The last of Us is okay I guess, but if they announced 3 remasters that would be a desperate cry for help. 3 games that came out in 2013?
I'm with you, I love the design of the X1. It just speaks to me...I LOVE Snap...
Just got to wait till E3 for the games to be shown off. Only 2 more days now.
Dude when he got laid off...There were tons of tweets saying #343hireMarty.
It was a big thing, because that's one of the big things Halo 5 could be missing. Halo 4 had amazing music but it's not jaw dropping like Marty did for Halo for all those years.
Trolling us with the sound for the weather. I wonder if the rain will sound as good.
And that's why you'll be living a shitty life.
You think you'd take it upon your self to follow them.
And if you hate MS, do you not use any MS owned products?
Skype?
Windows?
Bing?
IE?
Windows Phones?
Windows Tablets?
Original Xbox/360/X1?
Microsoft Office?
Kind of hard to dodge Azure servers when you don't know who they license them to.
Hating a company ...
That would be sick, but I have a feeling they may be planning another Windows Live thing again.
I think it'd be sick if Microsoft worked with GOG in order to improve their image.
Best way to make yourself look like you support DRM free.
But it looks like it's just Halo 2 on a Surface Pro Tablet.
"I can say we keep investing in 1st party."
If he sticks true to that statement, then the whole BS timed exclusive arguments die because then Microsoft follows Sonys model (Which is what Phil has been doing) and focus more on strong 1st/Second part development.
I don't expect to see it for another couple years because he needs to work on bringing more studios under Microsofts roof.
Ryse sold well though, I don't see Ryse being ported to PC as a necessary plan. I'm just hoping the team is working hard on a sequel.
But Microsoft is supporting PC/Xbox, and will continue to support them with the Microsoft Game Studios growing and bringing back some of the better PC games like their amazing RTS's.
If you're cutting X1/3DS/PSVita out of that list then you're really limiting yourself.
Fable Anniversary was absolutely brilliant on 360, bringing it to PC makes a lot of sense.
Don't expect Fable Legends to hit PC until the end of the gen, the game will be featuring seasonal content and has a 5-10 year plan attached to it. So it won't be FINISHED until the Xbox One is done, and moving onto the next generation. And like all other early access ...
Literally the ONLY Zombie MMO I have faith in...because they were the first team to actually prototype a game before jumping into a Zombie MMO. And State of Decay was AMAZING, still THE BEST zombie game I've played to date. (Yes I've played Last of Us)
I can't wait to hear details, and am glad that Microsoft are funding them. Means their team will be bolstered and Class 4 could be a growing game.
Reach was far from the best.
Halo 2 best MP
Halo 4 best Campaign
Halo 3 ODST best Co-op
And how is Halo 5 a rehash of Reach? Reach made a bunch of half measures, which pushed 343 to make those full measures in 4.
They've got tons of feedback from it so I imagine that 5 will be NOTHING like Reach.
And there's no way to answer that question until we see both games, so you saying "Uncharted hands down" ...
That whole good bye sequence was because he was realizing he was consumed by the vengeance. When he lost his niece he had died a little on the inside, and that had grown into an ocean of anger and loneliness.
There's plenty of back story for the character if you listen to his audio clips, hell the game had Aiden feeling pity for Maurice if you find all the Burner phones.
The only problem is the game made a lot of the backstory hidden behind a wall of col...
That's a nice looking stage.
I'M way too pumped. I can't wait till they show off games at E3.
Phil is doing a great job...I've got a feeling this gen will be way better than 360. (Especially since the 360 stopped taking risks half way through the gen)
Now Microsoft will be growing and making Xbox a lot more competitive. Which will push Sony to be more competitive... I'm hoping Nintendo gets in there with Zelda/X.
