Xbox truly is lost... This must of how it felt when Rome fell.

This comparison doesn´t fit somehow. Rome was a beacon of culture, XBox is a beacon of Brogaming.

 

[krypt0nian]

They really have no idea what they are doing.

 

[jmdajr]

I hope once a game is fuking activated, I don't need to be online.

 

[tatotiburon]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

What the fuck does that even mean.

requiere connection for live features


all the questions are lame

 

[belvedere]

This keeps getting better and better.

 

[Neuromancer]

Comment From Sam
What are Microsoft doing to welcome smaller, independent developers to the Xbox One?

 

[Carl]

haha indie devs. This'll be fun

 

[fallagin]

He took 3 minutes to not answer the question, thanks.

 

[ekim]

Who ever green lights these question must also be disappointed. lol

 

[ActStriker]

Good question from Sam, what will the non-answer be?

 

[BolognaSoup]

This can't be real.

 

[TheBioLover]

"What are Microsoft doing to welcome smaller, independent developers to the Xbox One?"
An actual decent question, again.

 

[Ravensmash]

My question got asked! re: Indie games

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Someone ask about the cheering audience!

 

[Mindwipe]

If the question is difficult, just answer a different question and pretend you suddenly can't read!

 

[AlexMogil]

Larry - The XBox One seems to be a juggernaut, just waiting for our money to succeed. How should we prepare?

 

[Mascot]

Larry, how do Microsoft intend to cope with the unprecedented hardware demand that XBone will undoubtedly create during the launch window? People love it already. Demand is likely to run into billions of units.

 

[Spawnling]

Glad that's all cleared up.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

Getting ridiculous now.

 

[commedieu]

My questions:
How does Microsoft plan to cultivate a platform for the Japanese market? How important is the Japanese market for Microsoft?
What is the relationship between Microsoft and indie developers, what tools will Microsoft offer?
How important are third party relations, including exclusive titles and content, going forward, for Microsoft?

Good question..

 

[Veronica]

probably about 17 lawyers sitting next to him.

"Skip that question. Say something about how great Live is."

 

[Cidd]

WTF Larry

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

Wow, I wonder if he actually have any idea of he's saying right now.

 

[OrangeYouGlad]

Anyone else picturing him with an egg timer and a gun beside him while he does this?

Seems like he's stalling. Either that or he types like a 5th grader.

 

[Pennywise]

I ended up asking a Q:

"What are Microsoft doing to welcome smaller, independent developers to the Xbox One."

Hope it gets answered.

"Well we have the Xbox Controller and then there's Xbox Live."

 

[Steverulez]

They really have no idea what they are doing.

I think they know what they're doing but its become apparent that no-one will like it and they've committed to things like this so are just not really answering anything.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

WTF Larry

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

It is literally a copy-paste from the Xbox FAQ

 

[L1NETT]

Good questions.

Shame none of them have been answered yet.

 

[michaelius]

Someone should ask what will happen in 15-20 years time when someone wants to play his xbone - will authentication servers be still online ?

 

[Marleyman]

Where have you been these past months? Sony have talked to media, shared tech info about the console, the controller and the camera. They posted a teaser trailer the day before the Xbox reveal even. Ghosts? I think not.

What is their official stance on anything?

 

[Meelow]

yeah but its gonna seem like a lifetime to nelson

I feel bad for him.

 

[Ace Harding]

My question got asked! re: Indie games

We know your real name now, Sam.

 

[ChosenPredator]

My questions:
How does Microsoft plan to cultivate a platform for the Japanese market? How important is the Japanese market for Microsoft?
What is the relationship between Microsoft and indie developers, what tools will Microsoft offer?
How important are third party relations, including exclusive titles and content, going forward, for Microsoft?

good questions, alot better then some of the poop that has been asked so far.

 

[Marty Chinn]

I think what takes so long is this is what happens:

Question -> Yahoo -> Major Nelson -> PR -> Legal ->PR -> Major Nelson -> Answer

 

[JetBlackPanda]

I hope once a game is fuking activated, I don't need to be online.

Bad news for you

 

[Kacho]

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

Man, this answer makes my blood boil.

 

[RedNumberFive]

This man is unreal!

 

[AlexMogil]

Follow-up question - what is wrong with your keyboard?

 

[Nags]

This gets better and better.

 

[Veronica]

GAF independent developers questions just killed the event.

 

[daviyoung]

Larry, how do Microsoft intend to cope with the unprecedented hardware demand that XBone will undoubtedly create during the launch window? People love it already. Demand is likely to run into billions of units.

 

[JABEE]

LET ME SHOW YOU THE CONTROLLER AGAIN

Oh shit! I didn't mean to hit CTRL+V.

 

[bigol]

that tension...

 

[Grief.exe]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

I like how he didn't answer the question.

 

[kiun]

so what is the deal with Phil Harrison ? Too honest or was kept out of the loop ?

 

[Meelow]

WTF Larry

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

Isn't that confirming again the "you have to go online at least once a day" that Microsoft said not everything is put in place yet?

 

[alr1ght]

I love the lagtime between question and answer.

 

[dose]

My questions:
How does Microsoft plan to cultivate a platform for the Japanese market? How important is the Japanese market for Microsoft?
What is the relationship between Microsoft and indie developers, what tools will Microsoft offer?
How important are third party relations, including exclusive titles and content, going forward, for Microsoft?

My question:
Larry, do you actually know what the fuck you are talking about?

 

[fallagin]

Indie games?

We are still developing our policies.

 

[nero2082]

WTF Larry

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

 

[Einbroch]

Sam, you broke him.
