welp. Time to unleash Phil.Lol. It started a long time ago in the Xbox 1P thread. It seems you missed the hype ship.

Oh damn, so nothing to see here?
They packed 50 games into last year's conference which was 1 hour 40 minutes. Also the invites for this year's conference to the press say to join them for a briefing "for all types of gamers." so I think a big focus is going to be showing many different types of games and genres on different platforms (Xbox console, xCloud, PC, mobile, etc) and these will be indie games, AA, AAA, a little bit of everything basically.Not surprising since they get to host literally ALL of the third-party multiplats, plus they need to talk about next-gen and streaming.
Usually MS needs to realise when less is more, but I think they'll have a strong conference like last year.
The top five livestreams are listed below.With no new consoles announced this year, E3 2018 was all about the games. And more gamers than any other year tuned in to Twitch for all the latest breaking news and big announcements from the gaming industry... for the second year in a row, Microsoft's livestream was the highest viewed stream on Twitch. Xbox E3 briefing wasn't just the most watched live event of this year's convention… it was also the highest concurrent viewer count of any stream ever on Twitch, pulling in an impressive 1.7 million viewers... Compared to last year's E3, Microsoft's briefing saw an impressive increase of 600,000 concurrent viewers on Twitch — which doubled the 818,000 viewers they had back in 2016.
- Xbox — 1.7 million concurrent viewers
- Ubisoft — 1.6 million concurrent viewers
- PlayStation — 1.5 million concurrent viewers
- Bethesda — 964,000 concurrent viewers
- PC Gaming Show — 893,000 concurrent viewers
Xbox is all gaming now.Does the term "Exclusive" make sense when they're likely also going to be pushing Xbox Game Pass on PC, xCloud streaming on many devices (phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, etc) with all of their first party content? I'm not too sure they will use that term this year.
They should keep it. Its informative. People would keep asking if this game is coming to pc without it.Does the term "Exclusive" make sense when they're likely also going to be pushing Xbox Game Pass on PC, xCloud streaming on many devices (phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, etc) with all of their first party content?

lol the gifs are out of this world
Last year was really good though. This year they've got more 1P stuff, XCloud, Game pass, Acquisitions, Scarlet and 3rd party stuff to talk about... hopefully we also get an update from the BC team or they could save that for the next day.
Yes and that's my point. I'm not sure if it makes sense to call say... Halo Infinite an "exclusive" when it will likely be available on Xbox One, next gen Xbox, PC, phones, tablets, smart TVs, etc.
Ha yeah that was it, Cringey but hilarious at the same time.
Naah.. I'm not counting on more than 5-10 minutes on next gen. Like the teasing for One X at E3 2016. That was like five minutes.Likely roughly 90 minutes on Xbox One stuff, then the final half-hour teasing Scarlett and one or two games coming to it (Halo Infinite)?
I know they have to cater to all these different sectors now, but hopefully they find a good flow.They packed 50 games into last year's conference which was 1 hour 40 minutes.

Did you not watch their show last year? Without Sony being there, they'll have an even larger share in third-party.
I thought Microsoft's conference was leaked already? Or was that a fake?
