It may be the reason why Andromeda was half-cooked.

Not bad, not overly brilliant. A few standouts for me
1. New Metro.
2. Terry strawberry floating Crews

3. OG BC!!

This game won't look that good come release, there will be some downgrades.

This was my first thought too! Got a link for the adaptor?

I wouldn't be surprised.

As an existing Xbox one so owner, the only reason I have it is for 4K blurays. I have a pro and if they had a 4K player in it I wouldn't even own it. Apart from
crackdown, I didn't see anything to tempt me away from the PS4's library

A shame.

Also, what/where is my free games for watching on mixer??

Peripherals don't work backwards compatible

Steel Battelion won't make the jump

6/10 from me. Games looked generally fine, but so few new exciting ideas. Ori 2 and Crackdown 3 were the highlights.

Twitter a lot more positive than me, most people giving 7's

Anthem looks amazing. Good conference, only disappoinment was 2018 SOD2 & not much shown of Crackdown.

YouTube

Average show, ridiculously expensive console with only 2 or 3 games that interest me, which I'll get on PC.
5/10

A message came up saying a mixer pack is on the way but I have no idea how you get it other than that.

That's what happens when you close your studios and turn the remaining ones into Halo/Gears/Forza factories

I watched it.

I got bored of it.

Nothing interested me at all.

Most of games are cartoony.

I think backward compatible is a waste of space.

Meh.

I'd give it a 5. There were a few game I liked the look of, but on the whole, it was just a boring show, better than EA's though/

Anthem, LiS and Ori the highlights. I'll probably only end up playing LiS, if Anthem is proper Destiny style MMO-lite.

As an Xbox One owner with a good PC, it was pretty bad as a showcase for their console. Not a single game exclusive to their hardware. Literally the only reasons for me to hold on to the machine now are for backwards compatibility and to avoid using the Windows Store.

Left this conference more interested in the Xbox as a 4K Blu ray player than any of the games. Graphically I wasn't seeing £250-£300 worth of better in the X. It may be possible, but the games weren't showing it yet until the very end with EA.
