I can honestly say as an old Xbox gamer that this was one of the greatest I have ever seen. At the end, when Phil Spencer was talking about the future, I truly felt that he understood exactly what we as Xbox gamers want. Play Anywhere is an amazing way to utilize Windows' versatility. The new changes to Xbox Live like the new LFG program, Arena program, Live based clans called "Clubs", and new servers will make gamers more connected than they already are. There is a very wide variety of new games coming out so everyone will have a game to play. And now, the elephant in the room, literally. The end video where they were talking about the Scorpio I was on my knees. They are announcing it now so by the time it comes out devs will already have games ready for it. 8 CPU cores, 6 terraflops. The most powerful console ever made when it launches in 2017. As a player on both PS and Xbox. I have never been more excited for the future of a console than I am right now for Xbox. Sony will have to do a shitload to overtake this briefing.

Honestly, all these new dashboard features sound cool, but it's all novelty. The LFG is probably the only part that will consistently be used by the community. I see it the rest of it the same as when they announced 'Record That', it was awesome and everyone used it... Now? Well now, I doubt anyone would truly give a shit if they removed it. As for the Scorpio... Hmm... Sounds too good too be true. I'll wait for full specs and details. That being said, I can't see this selling at any price - low or high - if you can't alter the graphics and such yourself. A console that gives you at least similar in game options to a PC will sell hard. I guess there's a few problems with implementing that, though.
