In a word. Boring.
Halo 4. The series that brought you the most ineffective assault rifle in game history. I could almost feel the walls it looked so linear.
Bring out the French accent dudes. Whenever I hear French or someone with a French accent I seem to always think of someone surrendering to Nazis.
EA Sports. Now we're talking. Get out the beer, let's get drunk and get laid! Its even "Better with Kinect" (trademark). FIFA and Football (aren't they the same thing?) Now you can actually invite Joe Montana, a very old dude, to call your plays that you have no idea what the fuck are.
My question, do we really need another music service? To me, there's already too many. And too many video options on Xbox Live. I was looking at the video apps today and I was like "What is the difference between them?" We got Vudu, Hulu, HBO Go, Zune, Crackle, Syfy, etc. but its not very user friendly. Now, they're going to add even MORE apps? NHL, NBA
WHERE ARE THE FUCKING GAMES?
Nike and Microsoft are joining forces. Remember when Nike workers went on strike in Vietnam a couple of years ago because they were only getting paid $50 a MONTH? So we should be able to get $50 Xbox 720s right?
WHERE ARE THE FUCKING GAMES?
Smartglass. Obviously an attempt to take out Nintendo. But all the game elements had the "concept" disclaimer at the bottom. So it's probably just a bluff.
Internet Explorer on Live. Who cares really? And then you have to watch Prometheus clip. I wonder how much Scott paid for that?
Finally, games! Arcade exclusives look boring but not really enough there to get any idea what they are like except Ascent, which looks like a poor man's Shadow of the Colossus.
New Tomb Raider still sounds like a porn audio track with Lara "uhhhhh" and "ahhhhhhh" along with rapid orgasmic breathing. It also seems like the game takes too much joy in hurting Lara. Misogynistic? She's like hitting trees left and right. The game makers obviously like to beat her up.
Wow, the twitterverse exploded with hate as soon as the Capcom guys came up for Resident Evil 6. I wonder if they realize how pissed fans are at them? Starting with the one time unlocks on Mercenaries, $50 3DS game, Crappiness of Raccoon City, and paid locked content on their game disks.
If this conference wasn't awesome enough, instead of showing footage or a demo of Dance Central 3, Usher comes out to sing one of his songs. What the fuck was that? Show the game!
The climax of the conference? Black Ops 2! WHY? We all know what a Call of Duty game is at this point. They're all the same. Don't get me wrong, I like to play them, but I don't need to see any gameplay. Chalk one up for the dumb rednecks on this game.
All in all, this press conference SUCKED. The only game that looked good was the new Southpark RPG. How can this be? That was the only interesting thing in the whole presentation. Microsoft, you have forgotten that your console is first and foremost a GAMING machine. Ridiculous.
