Here's hoping Halo 6 allows splitscreen on Scorpio.
They never intended to have splitscreen... its not a hardware limitation

Let's go!
Yo, what is this. LMAO.
Microsoft's gonna have the same issue Sony did with showing off 4K/HDR stuff on shitty streams
Eh. Would rather a reveal before E3, so the conference can focus on games. But will tune in anyway.
Let's go!

What if they use a video like they did with dx12!? The masses would loove to see a slider showing them the difference! (Even if it isnt 100% accurate)
Believe
lol. We're talking about the timing for their conference. I think it's a mistake for them to do their scorpio announce before Sony's conference, so I said that.
2013 was not that long ago, they shouldn't risk repeating any aspect of that scenario.

Xbox ScorpiOne.
Ah, gotcha. I realize that I was short sighted to assume everyone to be meeting at the same times!
I think no one is saying there won't be games. The thing is Microsoft's last two E3s were pretty weak in terms of new game announcements, and the recent cancellations and studio shut downs didn't do them any favors. So they need to announce a lot of games to get people excited about their platform again, and any time that goes into hardware talk can arguably detract from that purpose. Because ultimately games are what really matter to most people.
I would like it earlier in the evening. It usually starts at 9PM and ends later in the night and it is difficult to go to sleep with all the info and reactions.Now here's the big question, will Sony follow suit or keep Monday to themselves?
Meh
Zero fucking hype for this team managing this brand these days, I knew they would show Scorpio here, have to fill time somehow.
I would be amazed but made up if they had the megatons but I can't see it. Having said that the ones who kiss Phils arse will love whatever they show and he listens to them so carry on Phil you can do no wrong in their eyes mate.
This current team managing Xbox one brought us backwards comparability and showed huge pro consumer pushes in that direction. I'm okay with how they're handling things. I'll be super happy if they stop ignoring Japanese games and throw some money around again to get those games as well.Meh

Why?
Sure... that's definitely what you were thinking.
That seems like a very reasonable prediction.I have a feeling that half of the conference will be devoted to talking about Scorpio, and then the other half will be demoing games that have already been announced on Scorpio. So Sea of Thieves, Crackdown 3, State of Decay 2 etc. I think it's going to be very light in terms of game announcements for MS this E3. Maybe Forza 7 and Halo 6, but that's about it.
Wat??? The idea they can just decide on how 'low' they can go based what their competitor has previously just shown is silly. Things like prices are usually not decided within such little timeframe. Unless they already considered multiple prices that seems far fetched to think they can adjust how low they can go.Why does Microsoft always go first. I don't get it.
However cool Scorpio announce is, they'll have to announce price.
At which point Sony can decide how low to go with their response.
Even if they hit $399 for Scorpio, Sony can guaranteed go out the very next day with a super appealing price for the Pro.
What a passive-aggressive post.
Please tell us how you really feel.

Sony has that advantage regardless because they launched a year early. That won't nullify Scorpio if MS nails it in other areas.Ok, i'll bite but honestly I really didn't think these comments would seem so crazy to people.
I think Microsoft has to announce price for Scorpio. I think doing so before Sony's pitch makes it too easy for them to counter the momentum their pitch creates.
Price it too high, Sony touts their large portfolio of 4k games and the fact that you can buy a Pro _right now_ for less money. Price Scorpio aggressively and Sony can counter with a price drop on the Pro the very next day, that again makes the Pro seem like a better value.
Either way Sony benefits because they know what they're up against.
If Sony goes first, they don't have what they need to know if they should announce a price drop on Pro or not. So they can't. They don't know price, they don't even know final specs of the device and what the first set of games for it look like. They don't have enough information. All they can really do is show their games, there is no opportunity to respond to what Microsoft has just announced. Given the stage, and the fact that the media is covering all this extensively, I think it matters.
What games exactly? Taking the console warrior nonsense out of this, they really don't have a ton to show.
And that's fine, I'm talking about the groovy gang who kiss the man's backside whatever he does.
BC is great but it shouldn't be at the forefront of your announcements for nearly a year considering a weak E3 in terms of new games announced. Scalebound was cancelled.
I sense jealousy.

Is there a line where you can kiss his backside at E3? I probably want to watch first before I commit to any kissing, but definitely interested.
You should replace Europe with CET.
Read "Europeland".
You should watch this video on that topic. I had a couple good laughs and head shakes.
Jealous of what? I use the feature regularly.
I mean Phil. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

I see and are you speaking from personal experience or do you just tag anyone who doesn't agree with your opinion on a person as jealously?
I imagine Phil is taking the cancellation of Scalebound as a big sign of weakness. I'd imagine they feel like they still have a lot to prove. So I hope they work hard still. I'm happy they have been making moves for the better lately. I bought a PS4 at launch and an Xbox a couple years later but I feel like Sony is kind of just riding this gen out. I want more pressure on them.
Whoever thinks Microsoft wont have any new announcements are kidding themselves.
How soon until everyone just moves all their press conferences before E3 and the entire event is 2 weeks long. lol
