E3 2017 - Microsoft Conference
Why is this on Sunday now? I don't like it.
I expect to see the Scorpio and some shooty shooty bang bang games.
22.01 - Looks like it is starting with the Scorpio. Yup there it is.
Phil Spencer is on stage. Talking about Xbox wankery. Xbox1X. What a shit name. Nov 7. Fake whoops from the crowd.
22.05 - Kareem Choudry talking more XB1X shit. XB1 games will play better on 1X. Use the same accessories too. Why are these things getting cheers?
22.10 - ooh a game! Oh it's forza :/. A debut for a new Porche car. Um what. Are you trying to sell games or cars?
Couple of women pro drivers demoing it... but they aren't actually playing it? What's the point in having them there then? Don't they have something better to show?
22.18 - Thank fuck that's over. 'Most diverse games we've ever shown'. I don't believe you Phil. 42 games apparently. "22 exclusive games" lol.
First person of course it fucking is. Totally not pre rendered, wink wink. People say it's metro and it is.
22.24 - Ass creed isn't it. Ass Creed Egypt edition.
22.26 - Ubi guy talking about it. Nearly says Xbone! Best moment so far.
22.27 - something else? Oh it's another ass creed trailer. Oh fuck off with that! Some 'gameplay', yeah that's ass creed. Running not very well too.
22.33 - Mixer. What is that. They say like I should know what is is and I am not the only one confused.
22.34 - Player Unknown's Battlegrounds. Is that meant to be exciting?
22.34 - "Exclusive". Not first person! Oh it is for pubg, they should have said that at the start! No need for the elusive, they've told us what it is already.
22.37 - A stylised 1st person. Fighting bugs, Deep Rock Galactic.
22.38 - Some zombie post apocalyptic game. This looks really boring, even for a zombie game. State of Decay 2. That looked bad.
22.42 - Looks like battle royale the game. This guy talking is loud, screaming and annoying. What was that? [an attempt to cash in on Overwatch?]
22.44 - Minecraft! Woman on stage who looks and sounds like a 12 year old boy. New look for Minecraft. Uh oh. Eh. It's fucking blocks even in 4k. Who fucking cares. And they showed a switch image made in game... to show the cross play. Bit odd as hell to see a Switch image at the MS conference. [Sony not included on the cross play]
22.49 - A DBZ game. A fighting game, because we need more dbz fighting games :/
22.50 - the use of 'exclusive' is very misleading if you look at the small print during the trailer. Console launch exclusive means its not exclusive.
Black desert? I don't know what that really was. [a Korean mmo apparently is been out for ages on pc]
22.53 - Last night. Looks like the old game Flashback [indie game]
22.54 - Cartoony game. Platformer? Missed what it was called it went by too fast. [Odd Tales?]
22.55 - Looks Japanese. Code Vein by Bandai Namco.
22.57 - Sea of Theives. Pirate talking is Scottish for some reason. We really don't need a 5+ minute trailer of this. This is the worst thing shown so far. "Become a pirate of legend" NO.
Some said this is two hours long :/ nearly 10 min on that shit!
23.06 - Tacoma? No idea what that was.
23.06 - looks like a discount Tails from Sonic. In some sort of 3d platformer. Super Lucky's Tail.
23.09 - Cuphead? Yup, how has this not been released yet? Sept 29th.
23.10 - Stop showing the stage, show direct feed of the trailer. Crackdown 3.
23.13 - Montage of shit so they can get 42 games in. All indie games.
I still don't know what Mixer is. It's mentioned at the bottom every now and then. Internet says it's a streaming thing that used to be Beam. What's Beam?
23.15 - Ashen.
23.18 - Square.... Life is strange 2? Nope it's the prequel adventures of Chloe and Rachel. When the logo appeared I was hoping to see an rpg. (What's the point without Max's superpowers?) I should finish this just got the last part to do.
23.19 - Shadow of war. What. Shadow of Mordor sequel thingy. Wow 5 minutes on this.
23.26 - Guy playing piano on stage. Trying to make the trailer all arty. Ori the will of the wisps.
23.29 - Talking bout 360 backwards compatibility. More games... original Xbox games. That's actually cool.
4k update to some XBone1 titles for free.... so some them aren't free? Crowd is more excited for this than all the other stuff so far.
Phil says the most diverse line again. No Phil.
XB1X for $499. Crowd woos for some reason. Closing Phil says. THANK FUCK.
23.33 - EA game. Bioware, is it Anthem again. Yup. Do we need to see the combat in a Bioware game? Some idiot thinks so. People are saying it's basically Destiny. Oh look another open world game.
23.42 - Stop showing the stage when a trailer is on. Montage of stuff seen shown in case you fell asleep.
23.43 - That's it apparently. Really the host should say it's the end, bye, thanks for coming.
Garbage.
--------
Indie game Ooblets that was shown for 5 seconds looked cute at least.
Life is Strange: Before the Storm is 3 episodes and not made by DONTNOD. And Ashly Burch is not voicing Chloe for some dumb reason. Even dumber as she is involved.
Interestingly, no COD and no EA Sports.
An hour later... It has been dug up that the guy who is making The Last Night is a gamergater and therefore a huge piece of shit.

Shame on MS for giving this shit the time of day. The speed at which people are turning on this game is hilarious though.

And MS said the ZB1X was the smallest ever XB1 made but it isn't smaller in every sense going by the pictures.
Kinnect is also dead, well deader.
