whattt

Hey I saw your edit.

 

[udiie]

Oh god what a read that will be.

If you ever do it (which you won't) I'll frame it on my wall next to Misterxmedia's conspiracy theories.

All you do is complain about MS on this forum. The purpose of this thread was to welcome and ask questions, not show everyone why they shouldn't come here.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

OMG please no. Or yes. What a riot of a read and reaction that would be.

Please yes, I want flames, yo.

WHAT?

Good catch, before the edit. Who is this masked man?!

 

[Major Nelson]

Major Nelson, what do you think of the Xbox One's nickname, "xbone"?

I don't like it...it disrespects the teams that have put in thousands of hours (already) into the development of the product. Sure, it's cheeky but I don't care for it myself.

 

[Drkirby]

Maybe a cache issue?

Or is it?

 

[FINALBOSS]

Do you have to be negative about MS in every thread?

My first post said welcome to GAF.

And that wasn't really negative...his first "comparison" was full of horse shit too. Everyone knows that.

What are you MS' bodyguard?

Does it have a nickname internally?

No i was just curious.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Feels a little off with this marketing push starting and now this kind of appearance by random MSFT people including Nelson.

 

[Iacobellis]

I can hear J's voice now...

 

[Major Nelson]

Hey Major, what launch game(s) for the Xbox 1 are you most excited about? I'm picking up Ryse, FIFA 14 and Watchdogs myself.

I'm a Battlefield guy. That and DR3

 

[Troll]

Not as involved as I was - due to the fact the team was a lot smaller back when we launched the Xbox 360. That said, I spent a lot of time with Xbox One and write up feedback / suggestions for the dev's/PM's on a regular basis.

Usually I spent an hour or two in the evening at home on my Xbox One checking out the latest build. If I am not on Xbox 360, then I am usually on Xbox One. Or now....'Gaf.

When are you planning on retiring? I have me resume ready.

 

[Daingurse]

Voodoo Vince avatar? That takes me fucking back . . .

 

[KillGore]

Hey Major, what Xbox One game are you most excited to play after it's finished? Same question for PS4 and Wii U.

 

[nib95]

WHAT?

Hmmm...

From...

See you in the office!

To...

Good times on GAF are coming haha.

 

[chubigans]

Hiro protagonist is j allards gamertag fyi

This thread just got even more AWESOME

 

[TheSeks]

Don't know until Nov. 22...since it will be done then.

Wait, so if I'm reading between the lines right: the 720's original DRM was "baked" into the console? Is that why "Nov. 22" the "DRM switch-flip"/forced online during set-up has to happen?

What?

 

[DopeyFish]

I can hear J's voice now...

*swoon*

 

[kuroshiki]

Whoa. Xbone represents?

 

[ASTROID2]

You should get someone to make an XBox out of bones or at least look that way. It would be funny.

 

[Syphon Filter]

I doubt that is the real allard.

 

[supaflyryguy]

I don't like it...it disrespects the teams that have put in thousands of hours (already) into the development of the product. Sure, it's cheeky but I don't care for it myself.

Perhaps someone should have thought about that before they named it.

 

[RockTurtle]

whatever do you mean? I think this is a good thing to have more industry people being visible.

I appreciate the honesty.

I wish "XONE" had caught on (pronounced "Zone").

Ohhhh myyyyy goddddddddd!

 

[Parham]

Good times on GAF are coming haha.

I really want to believe this is J Allard.

 

[statham]

This thread just got even more AWESOME

wut!!!!!!!!!!

Ermagerd, they're taking over. Gaf is now Microsoft.

 

[D-Dott]

This thread keeps on giving.

How on earth is Xbone disrespectful?

 

[hawk2025]

I'm a Battlefield guy. That and DR3

Hey, that's me.

I'm actually picking up Battlefield on both PS4 and the X1 to decide which one is more likely to have my multiplayer-oriented purchases

 

[The Xtortionist]

Hey Larry. I'll buy an Xbox One if 1 vs 100 comes back. Just saying.

 

[NeededSleep]

Welcome! I think you should check out the GAF shirt store and wear one of them on your tour! >

I am not purchasing a XB1 at launch. But probably after a price drop or enough titles to tempt me. Though the first game will be Project Spark, this game looks like a ton of fun.

So, will there be other games like this coming out in the future for the XB1? Also any RPGs?

 

[GavinGT]

I really want to believe this is J Allard.

He already said he doesn't rock the hoodie/blazer.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Major, join the OT sometime. Tv show threads, movies, etc.

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Welcome Major, my Major!

He has exclusive access to the X1 version. :O

Fixed.

 

[toddhunter]

So wait, all these years J Allard was under the box?

 

[anexanhume]

Larry,

Sony has gotten notoriety for singling out Mark Cerny as the lead architect of the PS4. Why doesn't Microsoft have an equivalent? How big is the team that decides specs and thermal, die size, etc budgets?

 

[chubigans]

I've gots a question. Any idea when we might be seeing playable kiosks at stores? Before or after launch?

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Hmmm...

From...



To...

Uhhh...

 

[LiquidMetal14]

That is a bright green tone. I'm squinting.

it should have been [x]one.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

I'd be pretty butthurt if I was Major Nelson. You have a thread specifically dedicated to your arrival, and now the speculated and unverified appearance of J Allard steals all your shine. Darn.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Major Nelson how much is the day one achievement worth??? 100G? 1000G? 0G?

 

[WeakerYouth]

Thanks for taking the time to answer questions, Larry! Very cool.


Besides exclusive games, what would you say is the #1 reason to choose an Xbox One as your next console?

 

[chadskin]

Hey Larry. I'll buy an Xbox One if 1 vs 100 comes back. Just saying.

I was really sad when MS canceled that! Won The Maw and 800 MS Points back in the day. Good times.

 

[NobleGundam]

1) In a few weeks. I want to do a proper walk through w/ Albert.

2) I was thinking the same thing - I need to work on something like that. Thanks for the reminder.

Please post good tidbits about the Xbox One and not the PR statements "We are Uber confident about the XB1. We have Apps & Games!" - MS

That's cool but I wanna know what the console itself is capable of and is it worth $499. Thanks Major.

 

[Dodecagon]

Major, stay up and watch the 2am SCEJA Press Conference 2013 with us
