The new Xbox was underwhelming, but they didn't really say a whole a lot about it either. Hopefully, they are playing their cards close. With the exception of the light effects in Halo, I've seen Xbox One X games look better than that Halo demo..

They pretty much did what they did with the One X before that launched.

 

Overall, I enjoyed the show. There were some cool games shown off, Blair Witch and 12 Minutes caught my eye (outside of the usual games). 

 

I was hoping we'd see more on xCloud, so was a little disappointed with that.

The halo vid might have been running on a Xbox One X.

They have hands on for people to try at the show, you'll see posts about it popping up over time.

Maybe.. but they had some nice lighting effects that looked like Ray Tracing..

xCloud when hosted, is suppose to give better visuals than Xbox One X right? I thought hosted xCloud was "next-gen" tech..

Just to make it clear, the 'turn your own Xbox into an xCloud server' is free and is coming in Oct. 

 

Actual full fat xCloud is still TBC

 

I wanna know what's different with the first point when compared to the being able to stream your Xbox via the Xbox app...

Till now, the streaming you could do was only local, though I never tried it myself.  Only like for you inside your home.  The new ability will be anywhere, and to any device not just PC.  So there should be a iOS and Android app to stream to as well.  So not just local and not just PC like we've had.  

 

If you've got enough upload speed from your home, you could technically stream to your device out of state for example.   What's your upload speed btw?  Mine is too low for this to work (5-8mbps).

I tried it once, before I put in some decent WiFi gear and it was awful. I'm sure it would be much better now (or if it was wired). 

 

I get around 10-12 up so it may be enough.

I hope they're going to show us some more new games, like where's that new fable at?   The year isn't done, and E3 is just one games show so they're keeping things interesting for sure.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
