Microsoft Not Holding Anything Back This E3

4.3
Microsoft’s been talking up its E3 showing for this year for some time now. Not so long ago, we found out that as opposed to their usual 90 minute-long conferences, their E3 2018 showing will be a whopping two hours long. That either implies that it’ll be long and boring, or that it will be stuffed full of exciting, new announcements.

According to Microsoft’s GM of Marketing, Aaron Greenberg, it’s going to be the latter. Greenberg was asked by a fan on Twitter if there was any news on the E3 front, and while in his reply he said that Microsoft was still finalizing stuff about the conference’s duration, he did mention that they’d holding nothing back this year.

That definitely sounds encouraging, though personally, I’d rather they let their announcements do that talking. Hopefully there’ll be plenty of great announcements this year, with a focus on first party stuff (because boy do they need exclusives). Microsoft’s E3 press event is scheduled for June 10, just a couple weeks from now. Stay tuned to GamingBolt for constant coverage.

i dont get all the hate MS are getting, They have done EVERYTHING their playerbase has asked of them since day1.

People didnt want the console bundled with the kinect - they removed the kinect
people wanted to purchase 1 copy of a game and be able to play it on their PC and console - MS released Play Anywhere titles that do just that
people didnt want always online - they changed it and released the console without it
people wanted cross play with other platforms - MS made this happen between PC and switch!
people wanted a more powerful console - they release the one S and one X
people want first party games - they promise to announce stuff at E3.
people wanted equipment so that Disabled or handicapped gamers can still play - they release the new accessibility remote so they can

people just need to accept that MS made a good business decision and all their first party games will release on Xbox AND PC essentially doubling their target market, its a smart move!

from what i can see MS have done a great job at listening to their players, yet theyre slated by sony ponies whos Motto is "for the players" yet you still cant even change your PSN ID which has been requested since the PS3 first came out.

so before people slate MS for being that bad, they really should take a look at the competition, one listens one doesnt, Sure MS had a rocky start but i fully believe they have done great securing deals with PUBG etc and will have some killer things to announce this year at E3.

Yeah great 2 hours of them patting themselves on the back and delivering nothing new, nothing exiting and just a complete load of BS nobody but them cares about.

I lost faith in M$ a long time ago.
