I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Go home Windows 8, you're drunk.
I hate how the 360's interface right now reminds me so much of Windows 8...
I hope M$ Changes that up to something fresher for this one. But I highly doubt it.... Wait... why am I hoping something good will happen for them?

Microsoft wants all of its current hardware to run on the same OS, so good luck with that.

The big announcement will be held tomorrow (5.21.13) at 10 PDT, and will be televised on Spike TV. Given it is my day off, I'll be watching it on TV. I imagine Xbox.com will also be featuring a stream or something of the sort.

Yea, it'll be streamed on Xbox.com and over Xbox LIVE. Which is good, because I'd otherwise miss it.

Looks like the Xbox LIVE stream is starting a few minutes early, maybe to do a 10 minute warm-up thingy, like they did before their E3 presentation last year.

EDIT: Or not, they just unlocked the video embed in the app. The music, though. Fuck.

Watching on Spike TV HD:

--Pre-show footage at Microsoft Campus in Redmond, WA.

--Gratuitous pre-reveal footage with many people saying broken sentences LOL. Alive!

--Don Mattrick takes the stage. Starts off with the history of Xbox and Xbox Live. Also saying that more things will be coming to the 360 at E3. Also states how entertainment has evolved with new technology outside Xbox. "Team Xbox is out to make an all-in-one device." More build-up.

--Xbox One. Footage of console look. Controller reamins mainly unchanged. Kinect Interface seemingly separate from the actual device, but included with the default package.

--Yusif Mehdi takes the stage. Xbox One can identify voice recognition and log on instantly as you say "Xbox On." Skype can be seen on the menu. Displaying new content that is trending on Xbox Live. Xbox One dismisses input switches to just saying "Xbox Watch TV" to switch to cable. Star Trek is featured. Can switch back and forth on the fly with Kinect Interface using voice alone. Similar to Windows 8, you can use motions to switch back and forth. Snap Mode is introduced to do multiple things at the same time, even with your cellphone.

--Skype, shown earlier, can now use the Kinect to video chat with multiple people.

--Snap Mode can also now enable you to watch pro games and keep an eye on your fantasy league (you know, if you're into that.)

--Xbox One Guide. Kind of self-explanatory, a Kinect-oriented TV Guide. (NOTE, this works in conjunction with your existing cable subscription, like for me, it would be Charter Communications.)

--Marc Whitten comes on stage.
----Blu-Ray drive
----Gigabytes of RAM (didn't catch the exact value)
----Three Operating Systems in the same console. (Only one of them is Windows-based; one enables the quick switching already featured)
----Kinect is now more personalized to enact voice-recognition and apparently the gestures you make yourself. More or less the beginning of biometrics recognition.
----Skype will be delivered in full 1080p HD

--The Xbox One Controller. Nothing really that new, although it appears to work with the Kinect in a similar way like the Wii motion controller can with gestures like raising the controller up.

--Xbox Smartglass.

--Xbox Live, now more powerful. For Xbox One, there will be over 300,000 servers to run Xbox Live. Cloud will play a big part in Xbox Live.

--Video Game DVR. Yes, you can now replay your greatest moments.

--Andrew Wilson from EA takes stage. Hints at partnership between Microsoft. Reveals EA Sports Ignite as a new game engine for EA Sports games. Footage with real athletes to talk about how EA Sports games now have to be smarter to make the games better. Ignite will show more realistic animation to make the players even more responsive and more realistic. 3D crowds. Exclusive content for FIFA 14 will be on Xbox One. DEMO is shown for the games on Xbox One.

--Phil Spencer (head of Microsoft Studios) takes the stage. Talks about exclusivity of publishers for Xbox One. Microsoft Studios is hard at work to use the Xbox One.

--Forza Motorsport 5. Will be available as a launch title.

--Quantum Break, made by Remedy. Features live-action in some cutscenes.

--Promises that 15 exclusive games will be releasing in the first year for the Xbox One. 8 will be new.

--Nancy Tellem, head of Xbox Entertainment Studios, takes the stage. Talks about TV on Xbox. Inferring that it will reinvent TV. Talks about Halo.

--Bonnie Ross, head of 343 Studios takes the stage. Halo the Television Series, live-action, with Steven Spielberg.

--Back to Nancy Tellem. Talks about Game Changing. Introduces an alliance with NFL to bring forward more interactivity with Xbox One.

--Back to Don Mattrick, introduces Eric Hirshberg of Activision to bring Call of Duty: Ghosts (Infinity Ward) to the Xbox One with a special world premiere of the Call of Duty title, along with behind-the-scenes footage of the studio talking about what will Call of Duty: Ghosts will bring. Dogs are now allies (about fucking time, Activision). Underwater gameplay. Will be more character-driven (which I actually approve of).

--Compare and Contrast of Modern Warfare 3 and Ghosts. Basically, it makes MW3 look hideous.

--In-engine trailer of Call of Duty: Ghosts.

--Ends with a countdown for more on Xbox One at E3.


To be honest, I want to give it a try.
