Support NeoGAF

[Jigsaah]

Apparently Microsoft is also going to be doing a presentation in their short form "Inside Xbox". Curious as to what GAF thinks they will present? The presentation would be slated very close to Sony's "State of Play".

My personal take is not to expect anything big, but I'm hoping we get some news on what the new studios are up to.

Thoughts?

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Probably some price drops on their Xbox consoles.. And I wouldn't mind on some of the new Studio projects they have for Scarlett.

Xbox attempting to mimic his big brother is nothing new.

Wakka Wakka Wakka!

 

[Barakov]

Big mood.

 

[Halo is Back]

Vawn coming into every Xbox thread to to display PS4’s superiority is nothing new

but... Microsoft did this stuff before Sony

 

[Saber]

Uh, big man.

Wish them luck.

 

[DonF]

I expect nothing relevant from both events.

 

[Passive_Bob]

Inside Xbox will surely be overshadowed. Nothing they have can compete with The Last of Us - Part II, not even Halo Infinite. Regardless I'm interested in seeing what they have planned.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Microsoft to announce all xbox one consoles are £100 and xbox one x consoles are £200. Gamepass for a year is included.

[mejin]

Inside never has anything new, maybe it is time.

 

[brap]

Xbros we can't let Sony's show get more viewers!!!

 

[jshackles]

Maybe both are planning on showing off their new consoles

 

[Celcius]

Any chance of hardware price cuts getting announced?

 

[Vawn]

Anything's possible, but history says both will be a whole lot of nothing and boring AF.

 

[Birdo]

Holiday season bundle announcements, probably.

Spoiler

And Sony acquisition.

 

[Animagic]

I’m gonna go out on a limb guessing a new entry level S console bundle with a few months of gamepass included

 

[Vawn]

Holiday season bundle announcements, probably.

And Sony acquisition.

If MS acquired Sony, we'd have all their studios put onto making Kinect party games.

Sounds so strange, but yeah.

[The Alien]

Inside XBox will reveal that Microsoft will acquire Sony.

Sony State of Play will confirm this.

 

[Caffeine]

probably a price drop on both ps4 and xbox

 

[Fake]

Slim of slim?

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

If MS acquired Sony, we'd have all their studios put onto making Kinect party games.

Maybe for once they'd be praised by IGN and Gamespot.

 

[Insane Metal]

Inside XBox will reveal that Microsoft will acquire Sony.

Sony State of Play will confirm this.

Next show to be named Inside Play... Or State of Box?

 

[Vawn]

Both sound sexual.

 

[Somoza]

This must be on purpose.
I still keep hope for a late ff7 remake port for the one a few months after the ps4 version (the nextbox version is a given), But watch it be just some indie, dlc and gamepass announcements. A price drop of the alldigital version to arround 125-99 could be neat too. At least it will be a interesting next week i guess?

 

[joe_zazen]

Both sound sexual.

One does, the other sounds medical.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

Rest in Piece, Iwata.

 

[DeltaPolarBear]

Wait... wouldn't that mean the XBOX 1S All Digital would basically be borderline FREE? If they kept the price difference?

 

[DForce]

Sure they know tlou will be talked about so, shouldnt expect much.

 

[Kacho]

Hope you all are hype for some gamepass announcements

 

[Shagger]

One does, the other sounds medical.

Somewhere, to someone, for some reason, they are both sexual. Maybe even at the same time.

 

[Bathtub Fart]

Halo Infinite gameplay or bust. Get us talking.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

Did i reply in this thread already?

 

[demigod]

Plot Twist, Sony will move theirs 1 week back.

 

[Halo is Back]

Did i reply in this thread already?

Iwata says hello

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

-Upcoming Game Pass announcements.
-Some event related to Gears 5
-A solid release date on the new system next year.

Those would be my 3 guesses.

 

[GV82]

I suspect the event in London in November will be the big console announcements since they said everyone is travelling over to London including Major Nelson etc they were making out as if it was going to be a big show right?

 

[Jtibh]

I feel like at this point both sony and microsoft are doing a little pocky pocky tap tap on the back so we all dont fall in a deep coma from the lack luster year we had so far.
E3 a disaster. Gamescom not much better. Tokyo gameshow still relevant??
These nonsence shows are nothing more than life support for both companies since they cant figure out when and how to transition into the new gen .

 

[Mass Shift]

Just as I said in the Sony SoP thread. I can guarantee there will be HUGE disappointment after Inside Xbox.

Really guys, these are not the events for what we're all waiting for. Hype at your own risk.

 

[kungfuian]

Come on Nintendo, give us that super secret 9/24 Direct and the menage a trios we deserve! Direct Box Play

 

[Jigsaah]

I honestly don't really like either show. Nintendo really does things right. Less talk, more gameplay. Sony's last one was like 10 minutes and it felt like they shouldn't have bothered. Xbox's is always way too damn long. I think the sweet spot is 20-30 minutes. Seems Sony is aiming in the right direction. Let's hope Xbox doesn't give us a documentary.

ye xbox always adds in these short interviews that get no answers other than pr spin.

 

[Revolutionary]

Oh good, another hour-long Game Pass commercial

If I have to choose between the two extremes, I prefer a short broadcast.

Yea Microsoft needs to lose the interviews of your own employees by your own employees in your own studio. I mean come on, how much more canned than this get without slapping a "chicken of the sea" label on it.

Just simply show us some tangible updates with Xcloud, some info on what the new studios are working on maybe have Phil give a quick intro and let that be that. All this pomp and circumstance isn't necessary.

Sony is not entirely innocent when it comes to the in house funhouse either. E3 2018 was a cringe infested example of this when they had 4 of their very own swooning over upcoming games while the E3 audience made the switcheroo to the new digs. For fuck sake can we get a flute player that's actually Japanese...instead of some guy who looks like they picked him up in a New York subway.

Sorry. Mini-rant over...

Although, Nintendo pioneered this format to be honest
