Polygon's marathon Xbox One live stream

Games have to be installed before you can run them (which you can start early at a certain % based on game). They've played this before so it's already fully installed. Not sure why load times are still bad after that though.
All of the games were super slow to load. DR3 was about 45 seconds for reload after death during a boss earlier.
 
Wonder if the load times are this long because the games run their own OS so you have to "boot" each game.

I have no idea other than that.
 
I maybe sort of understand why some would find Lococycle appealing as like some sort of game you'd run into in an arcade, but...

...holy shit this game looks like absolute trash. It's hard to put into words how incredibly fucking dumb this game looks. And bad.
 
There is a distinct difference between this Polygon video review of the Xbox One and what they actually demonstrated for the past 12 hours.
 
Well that was enlightening, software left me unimpressed and the system itself seems unfinished.

Yes, a rather stark contrast.
 
I love this thread. It's like watching a trashy reality TV show with your friends and taking the piss out of everyone and everything.

I'm glad our universal ire against Polygon brings us together.
 
I just tuned in for the last little bit.

It's one of the most awkward gaming related things I've been a part of... I can see why the outside world views us with such a stereotype.
 
This stream just confused me and seemed unlike a team that game this system an 8.0 review score. So much seemed unpolished, even buggy, and it was [perhaps rightfully] slammed pretty much throughout the stream.
