But those can only be associated with the PS4 and I bet Sony is going to take advantage of that.

So, seeing as I'm genuinely clueless as to the potential candidates, what are the big exclusive(s) that you all expect to see?
Surely, in the wake of KZ:FS et al, they have a couple lined up, right?

No I mean Microsoft itself will showcase stuff and talk about it. They have to, there's nothing else on the 360 to do or talk about.

In the grand scheme of things, did it really matter? People get too caught up on reveal dates.

What wake? It is killzone. If Microsoft were to be worried (which I don't think to be the case) , they definitely would not be worried about KZ.

He couldn't be bothered to show up for the conference. How does that show caring?
I'm thinking PGR5 and a few new exclusive IPs.
And while they won't be exclusive, I also predict that EA will show some games too -- first glimpses of next gen sports titles.

Black Tusk Studios game will get a teaser, maybe the rumoured PGR5. Wouldn't surprise me if they got a current ip sequel from a third party as a big announcement either.

Exclusives only?
Alan Wake 2
Project Gotham Racing 5
Possible Halo 5 teaser
Ryse
Black Tusk's new IP
Lionhead game
Rare game
Forza 5
They can pick from any of those, hopefully.
I'm guessing you mean Ballmer because the person you're describing certainly isn't the J Allard I know. Either way, Ballmer gets way too much hate on GAF and the internet in general. He may not be Bill Gates, but he's certainly not the buffoon people think he is.
3rd parties are just going to say, "will be available on all next-gen consoles".
The only thing Sony can take advantage on is maybe having a Killzone demo, maybe show off the Gaikai features live.
Microsoft needs to worry about Killzone?
He he.
Nintendo needs to worry about a Blinx remake and hurry up and announce Galaxy 3 STAT!
At GDC? Would discussing those at GDC be any at all interesting? especially considering the elephant in the room, which is next-gen?

They're going to spend the entire show time to talk about 2 games? Especially when everyone is talking about next gen?
I think you're forgetting that Gears comes out a week before GDC.
Yeah, Balmer, haha. Not sure why I typed Allard that entire post!

Interesting. Cheers.
Black Tusk, hey? Never heard of them.

Kinect probably won't be the central focus. But it will play a role with it's new advancements in tech.
Some are willingly setting themselves up for more crow. I don't want to take that route, so I'm being very optimistic about it.
I have this weird feeling that MS has some big things planned with EA (exclusives, money hatting, timed exclusives).
Alongside Activision, EA's probably at the top as far as publishers go.
So it's just extremely weird for them to not even have a mention during the Playstation Meeting. I know they are on the list of devs supporting them, but I was 100% sure we'd get Battlefield 4.
Now I'm crossing my fingers for it to show it at MS's conference. I can't believe I am hyped for a military FPS haven't touched one since vanilla BF3 like a year ago. But I think I'm more excited for 64 players online, 1080p, and maybe, MAYBE 60FPS.
Where have you been since 2010? They've gone through great lengths to stuff Kinect down our throats, lol.
The joke is not without reason.

Remember we saw 8 games at Sony's press conference. 5 were unannounced. Not a single one with motion controls nonsense. Microsoft can probably match that, but only with Kinect games included unfortunately I bet.
I wonder how many of those are launch games? Maybe they'll pull a Rare and have two high-profile games on launch day.
I will eat all the crow in my city if Kinect is the central focus for Microsoft at the Xbox Event.
What Playstation event were you watching?
The denial by Sony guys on any Move stuff Sony shows is just amazing anymore. Only 4 of those games are PS4 exclusives which are Knack, Killzone, Driveclub and infamous.

He runs all of Sony now, you never saw Howard Stringer at any of these events when he ran it.

How can they promote a version of a game for a system that Microsoft won't acknowledge it exists until late April?

With four new ips in development at least one should be possible for launch.

Kinect will be an integral part of the next Xbox, i.e. a part of the standard user interface. As such, it's probably going to receive plenty of attention and some dedicated games to boot. But that's not to say that there won't also be plenty of content that your average Gaffer might be interested in.

Just a (horrendously long) Move demo.... not a game

They won't demonstrate actual games, but most likely "next generation technologies" as they'll put it. It's GDC (Game Developers Conference), they have to talk about next gen in some context, with a full reveal a month later.
Media Molecule?

They were demonstrating for a game they are making.

Or at least they were showing a proof of concept.

They made it so the Move works but not the Dual Shock. Sony is very dedicated to including motion controls.

why is Money hatting on brought up for MS, sony has moneyhatted the shit out of BF3 and no one cares.

That was the highlight of the show, very surprising he didn't even notice it.
BF3 still came out at the same time on 360 right? I don't think anyone really gives a shit about 1 month timed DLC. I remember when it happened with some of the games I wanted on 360 but after I switched to PC. It was an annoyance, but a minor one.

Sony also money hats third parties like Konami for regional only exclusive DLC.
Sony pays EA to delay all DLC for PC/360 owners.
That had nothing to do with GAF. Damn youtube vid had over 6million views and all it announced was a date to the event. So the hype was real all over.
Everyone forgetting Destiny exclusive content?
Most likely exclusive SONY branded armor and vehicles. It could even be an entire planet but I highly doubt it, we will have to wait and see until E3.
And? Are people really losing their shit that they have to wait a tad bit longer for DLC of all things? I thought we all hated DLC here?
All I care about are actual games being delayed or stolen from other platforms. That kind of moneyhatting is the worst.
