Hang on, how many exclusive games did they show?


Right now they're showing COD, but this will come on all consoles anyway.
 
Oh hey, guys. Keen on buying a 500$ TV Box with a Webcam?
There's the XBox One now.

What a stupid name, still can't get over this!

Why all the anger at the name? It really doesn't matter, unless you're going to buy one and sit staring at the box instead of playing it. I'll be buying one as soon as I can, it looks stunning, especially the new Kinect. I'm a bit worried about how much focus went on the television aspect of it though, I'm willing to bet that half of those features won't work at all in the UK.

I do like the fact it has Blu Ray and a built in DVR for games, though. For all of those moaning about not seeing enough games; it was a console launch not a game conference. Wait to see what E3 brings. 👍
 
The revolutionary new game features will conspire to make a game that still plays exactly like the original Modern Warfare, except now shotguns will have less range than the melee button (for balance).

Thank you so very much.
 
It looks okay.

As a piece of design, it ticks all the boxes for me. It's minimal, well proportioned, looks well built and is fairly future proof. You can't go wrong with gloss black! ;) It's certainly better than using the typeface from bloody Spiderman.

:lol: Thought so,terrible trailer showcasing Forza as an arcade looking racer

It was a tiny little trailer to show that Forza 5 is coming, I wouldn't read too much into it. Remember that mad Forza trailer that appeared before Forza 4 with the cars doing flips and stunts and all sorts? Yeah...
 
Was this now the Xbox or the COD announcement? I honestly can't tell... :nervous:

Or a TV commercial?

The stream broke for me a while ago, are they showing gameplay now?

EDIT: :lol: @ TheStigFarmer
 
TV, Kinect, more TV, FIFA rehash, scripted CGIs (atleast Forza 5 is a confirmed launch title), Halo & Spielberg, NFL partnership, another generic CoD. Underwhelming, to say the least.

From a practicality front yes its a minimalist clean functional design but personally I would want more drama from something like a console and that's reflected in most gaming oriented products. It looks too much like a budget DVR for my liking and how something looks is a big sway for me.

...I'll say it again; it was a console announcement. The games are being saved for E3.

Fair enough, my personal opinion is that the last thing I want underneath my TV is 'drama'.
