Or: Foz watches press conferences so you don't have to.
Quick review: Nothing here made me change my mind to stay away from Xbox One. The flaws in the system and the hoopla surrounding it are too much.
Notes:
Free Xbox 360 games for Live Subscribers.. more of a free rental, but it looks like they'll include Halo and Assassin's Creed games, but this hints of damage control.
Dark Souls II: Meh.
Yet another redesign of the Xbox 360. probably known as the Long Tail edition (IE the cheap box to get people into gaming where you can spam them into upgrading to a "real" console.. who knows, it might outsell the Xbox One...
World of Tanks comes to 360. That's semi-interesting.. now get Mechwarrior Online and I'll be really interested.
New Killer Instinct game exclusive for Xbox One. Because the revival of the fighting game craze hasn't quite petered out yet.
Forza 5 to feature "Driveatar" system, where the system will capture your driving habits and upload it to the cloud to be opponents for other people. Because having just the normal AI run you off the road and ruin your race isn't realistic enough.
Quantum Break is being described as "24 meets Prince of Persia: The Sands Of Time". Um, interesting... a little at least.
Dead Rising 3 to Xbox One exclusive: Interesting, it's not quite the seller that you would expect such an exclusive to be, but still, interesting.
In short: Meh, to a meh minus.
At least they finally focused on the games, and turned off the automatic footgun. But still, there just isn't enough there to get the bad taste out of the mouth from the last few weeks.
