If this was a controlled leak, then that means that Microsoft didn't mind for all this stuff to be leaked, right? Which means they must have even more stuff to announce?

honestly, who would hear except for the hardest core MS fans? The vast majority of people would be seeing it for the first time around e3. No video = no hype
A. They've still got some aces up their sleeves (Black Tusk new IP still in works? More 3rd party exclusives? Something else totally unknown?)
B. They're content to just release info on this stuff existing, confident they can maintain hype when they release actual media
C. DESPERATION (Get attention away from recent Tomb Raider/YouTube/etc. bad press, Jan sales might be bad, etc)
Take yer pick.
This will eventually make the rounds on gaming news sites.

Lmao dat hyperbole. But yeah I do think he's a plant. I doubt all that crap had much to do with it tho.wow so the Machinima scandal, the Tomb Raider scandal, and now January NPD looking terrible for Microsoft? This puts things in stark perspective as to what was going on tonight

If the news is legitimate, I don't even care if they are planted leaks. Most leaks have an agenda behind them one way or another.Look at the comments by Spencer and then look at the leaks.
Look at the response all the leaks got. Unbridled enthusiasm from people that had every reason to dislike and distrust Microsoft mere hours ago.
If that isn't calculated alternative PR tactics, I don't know what is.
And hey, maybe I don't.

I'll take order C with some light B on the side.
Im sure xb1 jan npd will not be that good, but i dont think they ll be wiiu level stuff.
That said, they need a price cut before this fall.
wow so the Machinima scandal, the Tomb Raider scandal, and now January NPD looking terrible for Microsoft? This puts things in stark perspective as to what was going on tonight
hyperbole is exaggerating stuff. The Machinima scandal and Tomb Raider scandal is real, the Machinama story in particular got them huge bad press everywhere. And IF January NPD is as bad as famousmortimer is implying, then what's the hyperbole? That would perfectly explain why Microsoft feels they need to get out ahead with these leaks now. They can't face an entire month straight of bad press again.
If you don't like hearing this stuff, blame Microsoft. They're the ones responsible.
When do the numbers come out?
God damn it, I actually wished GAF goodnight! Must. Close. Laptop! :'(
"Everything he said was true." -mortHe didn't even say that everything is confirmed. He just talked about the bundle.
"Everything he said was true. But there's a reason they are dumping all this info now. Jan NPDs are gonna be fun."
Seems like the Xbox One demand has dropped to PS4 NZ levels.
