Microsoft E3 2014 Discussion Thread (Press - 6/9)

Or these companies (Nintendo and MS) are throwing loads of cash at them.

I think because their games dont sell well to begin with, they probably take te guaranteed cash up front.

All in All I think that was one of the better E3s Microsoft has had that I've seen. No filler content at all. The only disappointment for myself is that I didnt get blown away by anything.

Maybe. That seems like a really bad business model for the publisher though, unless they're just throwing practically nothing at Platinum.

Witcher 3 looks sexy as hell.

I was expecting either the CD Projekt guys or Crystal D to announce exclusive content.

CDPRed guys have already said they aren't doing any exclusive content stuff for The Witcher 3.

I cant imagine they had to give much to make up for the amount of Playstation sales they would have.

I'm not really sure that that's how they look at it, or why they would look at it that way, but I think I've derailed this enough.

MS drop anything exciting? All I have seen of note so far are Halo re-releases.

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Halo: The Master Chief Collection



Having the full original mp for Halo 2 is sweet.

100 total maps covering all four games. Boom.


Price?

I definitely thought that, but it seems weird for Platinum. They're so niche and don't exactly sell gangbusters, especially in the US, so it's hard to imagine MS throwing them a ton of money.

EDIT - Bayonetta 2/Wonderful 101 I guess kind of makes sense, since that was during Nintendo's push for "we can do third party games on here!"

halo stuff is $60, they said it in the post show...

[Twigg4075]

Right?


Although I'm still curious as to how much they plan to charge. Keep in mind this is the same company that charged $40 just for the Halo 1 remake.

That oculus or oculous looks awesome.

I can't wait for the Halo Collection. Halo 2 had the best maps.

I liked Sunset Overdrive. It looked like JSR with mutants and huge guns.
