E3 2015: Microsoft press conference

#1

The Twitch stream is working fine for me.

#2

I don’t follow the story, but Halo 5 seems alright.

#3

I like that the very first presenter was a woman.

#4

No gameplay for Recore, yet a release next spring. I wonder if “exclusive first-party” means no PC version.

#5

Backward compatibility is a game changer. If they also make it region-free I might buy a unit.

“We won’t charge you for the games you already own” is a nice jab at Sony.

#6

I bet Recore will play exactly like its title suggests it would.

#7

Most likely. I’m curious if it’s a third-person action game or something more adventure-like.

#8

Yay! Mod support for consoles (or at least Xbox One).

#9

Dark Souls 3

#10

yessssssssS

#11

Looks dark brehs.

#12

I’m interested in the division still. I don’t know if I’ll get it ultimately, but I’m interested.

#13

Is it from disc backwards compatibility? Or do you have to download the games you already have?

#14

They claim it is both. Compatible titles will be added individually so don’t expect everything to work from day one.

#15

Troy Baker is everywhere.

#16

From what I’m hearing MS is just killing it this year. Glad to hear it, honestly. You need to be competent to compete.

I’ve heard that Vive has some form of ‘partnership’ with MS, but from what I gather it’s just native device support for Windows 10. Need more details, but probably not much happening with that.

But the bar definitely got raised for Sony’s presentation. I wonder if they’re sweating over there right now.

#17

Also, if the new dark souls isn’t exclusive to one console, it’ll come to PC.

100%

#18

I can’t help but laugh at you every time you bring it up. You don’t have to worry in this case anyway, Dark Souls 2 did come to PC.

#19

Subpar conference like usual.

#20

You could really see that Todd Howard wasn’t really into his presentation at MS. He was pretty amazing at the Bethesda conference, talking, cursing and shit, but his MS presentation was nothing but soundbytes.
