Xbox One

    I suppose they're trying to encourage people to just call it an 'Xbox' the same way that people use 'PlayStation', which is a quirk that Sony's somehow managed whereas most people use the specific name of Microsoft and Sony's consoles.

    'One' is so stupid that it'll discourage people from using that to refer to it, and people will obviously want to avoid using the full 'Xbox One' name during casual conversation because it's long and sounds awkward. So 'Xbox' it is. Marketing genius in a way.

    XBox One... lmao. Next generation of the Xbox will have 359 less xbox's than the previous one.

    Anyway, no surprises at all in here, wasn't expecting much, didn't get much.

    And now, the impossible not to make, comparisons. The PS4 controller looks a lot more interesting with the share button, the touchpad and the little speaker. XBox's one look very robust tho, they just made it feel better apparently, last Xbox pad was pretty good.

    About the name, the iPad 3 has been marketed as the New iPad. What will happen when another one gets released? The Newest iPad. Theeeeeeen....

    Sometimes the logic behind the new products' names gets me confused.

    Yeah, man there's got to be so much pressure for them to absolutely nail this E3. The fact that Sony had such a significantly stronger showing 3 months ago is nuts. No doubt that this is going to be one of the most interesting E3s in years.

    With that being said... I am extremely excited about this new generation! This is great news for us, and hey, I'd rather be excited for the potential of this next-gen than being disappointed on the stuff we still don't have the facts on.

    Also, Xbox One is not always online for singleplayer games, that's good.

    why ppl still think that xbox is a gaming console ?

    Though this is true, then the early adopters will in large part be gamers, thus E3 matters.

    "Xbox One". Looool, guess we'll get used to it eventually though, just like 360...

    No - I won't, for me it will always be stupid.

    That was awful, the name, the presentation, the whole thing. I sorta liked the xbox look though

    All the random buzz words randomly being thrown around had to be the highlight of it for me!

    I would say don't treat rumors on used games as final as of yet. If they completely blocked used games then GameStop, Microsoft's biggest US retail partner, would have an aneurysm. Maybe the thing about having to pay a fee to play used games is real, but if that just means the buyer of a used game has to pay an extra fee, that would totally alienate GameStop's audience so I don't expect this to be the final word yet. So stay tuned.

    This presentation today was for mass market, mainstream press. E3 is for the gamers.

    Stream link ?

    Just checkout gametrailers, they cut the most important pieces into individual videos. The presentation is actually pretty boring so you're better off just checking the vids out.
