    I was shocked at how many people out there were bashing the show, given that I though it was just as good (and in some ways better) than the PS5 reveal.
    The PS5 reveal set the bar very low and Microsoft decided to play limbo. They didn't show the power of the X, only the diversity of their line-up which is story focused Life is Strange tier shit. I want games with gameplay, not artsy story driven cinematic experience from hack writers who failed in Hollywood and pursued gaming. Who wants an open world Halo that targets the Anthem/Destiny audience? Or the other dozen of games that come out in a few years? The SeX launches at the end of the year and has no games that show the power of the X. No Forza, last gen graphics Halo and a bunch of AA crap that shouldn't have taken up so much time of the showcase.

    Who saw that show and thought "Damn, I need a SeX?". All the games can run on the One. It was a joke. Especially after Phil said he feels confident after the PS5 reveal, the good relationship with jap. devs, his tweet about the SeX feeling like the change from 2D to 3D and his 2014 tweet with "bringing more than hype, bringing games". Don messed up the One reveal and Phil is not better. DQ11 was the highlight alongside Wonderworld and both were in the preshow. Greenberg and insiders like klobrille hyped up the event like no other and it was a massive failure.

    But it's not a massive upgrade comparatively. I don't think the term "next gen" really matters as much anymore. This reveal was the opposite of the one, where that time they mixed messages and dropped the ball with all kinds of things. This was relatively consistent, non-pitchfork raising, and talked about it's bonuses over the ps5. It wasn't a failure. They set out for this and did exactly the message they wanted.

    Very, Very, VERY well put my friend!!! I couldn't agree more with every word you had to say... A+ summary of the showcase IMO.
    A simple bad habit will mar an otherwise flawless character, as a single ink drop soils the pure white page.
