Pretty sure that's the opposite of good marketing.
Depends on what they decided to use that time for in their press conference
Technically we expected it because it was spoiled by that one neoGAFer who came on this forum for a few hours to leak everything Microsoft had in store and then vanished into the great darkness
I slightly disagree with you there because i know you know how development is chaotic and things only come together at the last second and making demos for conventions takes a lot of time and effort that could otherwise be used for the game itself. And you know this. So 2 months can make a difference in a lot of cases2 months would not make such a difference between "could show" and "could not show" at this point.
Rest assured, the Halo/Gears/Forza/Fable cycle will continue as scheduled.
:/
Its funny because every once in a while ntkrnl appears on random threads and posts as if nothing happened lol

Heh, I did see him one other time post in some thread randomly. It is pretty weird.
For a playable demo sure, but if a game has been in development for as long as Crackdown for example has and they can't even show a minute video of the game, then the development has way more problems then whether or not it is ready for E3 and two months won't make any difference in that
What other first party titles do they have in the works? Halo 5, Gears?
Forza 6, Joe Montana Game(?), Twisted Pixel's IP, Rare's IP, and Microsoft secured exclusivity and/or marketing rights of Tomb Raider and Division. They also have Killer Instinct as well.
But there has to be more when the conference is 90 minutes and Microsoft has been about showing games consistently during their conferences under Spencer. Spencer even said before that this conference will be about the best fall line-up that Xbox has ever had as well. It would be interesting if more titles yet announced were shown during E3 and only to be revealed that they were releasing in the fall as well.
Yup. Scalebound , Crackdown and Quantum Break have been cancelled, along with the new ip's from Rare and Lionhead. In this fictional world where it's only Halo/Forza and Gears, because we like to ignore all the other games that would disprove our lame arguments.
Kudo definitely makes it sound like there will be Oculus/Hololens stuff at the E3 keynote

Isn't Gamescom a PC centric event?
Sounds promising. I just hope there's not much fluff.
Ms doesn't use CG as much as Sony has in the past.Can't wait for CG announcements of games we won't play for 2+ years

They said it was their best Xbox lineup ever, and these three won't be there? Well now they have my interest...that's a tall order to fill, even with those three being shown, so now I really want to see what the deal is.
Many people seem really happy Morpheus will be a focus with Sony. I wonder if we'll get people as happy if MS does have an Oculus/AR segment at their conference?
I personally don't want a ton of VR at either conference, but I suppose many will be happy and positive when it happens. It won't hurt my feelings.
Who are we kidding, I expect a ton of "concern" for both.

If they pushed those three games to talk about VR and AR I'll be really annoyed.
Hopefully Kudo is just talking about announcements and stuff in general and not necessarily the Microsoft conference. Phil will be at the PC conference as well so maybe they'll focus on some of that stuff there instead.
Microsoft:
-Probably nothing about scalebound so I'm not watching
Kudo is not just leading AR/VR thing anymore, it's strange people think he only need to work with Hololens/Rift.
