When they come back from the break, the audio is out of sync.

This is the first time where I actually welcomed talking over something, that conference was a waste of time, I'm with Vinny.

Looks like the Xboxone is not made for me. I like videogames.

@gasparnolasco: So far it looks like the PS4 will be my first Sony console. You're on thin ice MS, better wow me at E3 with something other than "5 billion transistors"

Video totally works now but in the second part of the video the audio is out of sync. (And yes, I know about the VLC fix but I don't download videos anymore I watch GB through Roku.)

Absolutely. The consoles would be smart to try and court Oculus for support.

Been watching this archived on Twitch. Just got to the part where they finally recognize that hey, Steam already does pretty much all this stuf that everybody thinks is super disgusting. So glad. Steam is easily the most overrated thing in gaming today.

every time I finish one of these videos, the audio keeps playing. I start hearing the aduio from the beginning of the video again, that is.

THIS TIME it decided for whatever reason, at 45 minutes, to randomly switch the audio back to the beginning of the video, while I was watching. had to refresh

has anyone else been having this

I really don't feel interested in any of the next-gen systems at this point. I kind of want to build a PC, but at the same time I'm not sure I want to do that either. I dunno. This press conference convinced me more though that the Xbox is no longer for me even though the 360 was clearly the winner this generation.

J Allard right at the top is probably Giant Bomb moment of the year.

Still have to laugh at people basing their purchase on one hype event from each company. The internet does indeed make you stupid. Right now I'm not impressed with either offering, but I'm not "leaning towards" not buying anything. See how things look in 3 months, then maybe you'll be able to make an informed decision.

I think my next generation console of choice is the Dreamcast.

With its "just put the fucking disc in and play" feature, I can experience dynamic social experienced experiences like the state-of-the-art Power Stone 2.

Experience.

@blazehedgehog:

But honestly, the thing that bothers me the most is Steam's very existence. I miss having games as separate executables. I don't need some stupid hub for all my games. I already had that. It was called the Start menu. Or I can just make shortcuts or a folder or something. Regardless, I don't want to launch a program just to launch the program I actually want. My PC isn't very powerful (for example, it runs TF2 just fine, but I had frame rate issues playing Hotline: Miami) so it's really annoying to have to have another program running in the background, taking up my limited system resources.

Are you really dumb enough to think Steam is having any impact whatsoever on your gaming performance?

Sorry but the 90mb or so that Steam uses (according to my task manager, Steam is only using 10mb which seems absurdly low) isn't going to be causing any FPS issues regardless of system specifications, and if you're in a situation where worrying about a minuscule amount of RAM like that is a problem, you should go out and buy some more RAM. It's not like it is expensive. It hasn't been for years now.

People like Steam because Valve are brilliant overall and rather reliable, EA are neither. Microsoft aren't exactly very good too, the disaster that was (is) Games for Windows Live proves that. (that service went down for a week recently, and nobody could play SFIV online and a few others)

I'm really disappointed in Jeff's choice of headphones.

The only major thing I took away from all of this is that Jeff wears Beats by Dre, and that he should know better than that.

Finally able to watch this and it's about as boring and uneventful as I was led to believe. All that tv crap is completely irrelevant anywhere but the US. Don Mattrick is as smug as ever.

I don't have a source, because I can't remember where I read it, but apparently they have strategies for the TV stuff in like, 41 different countries.

Regardless, I barely watch TV anyway, I just wanna play vidya games.

For some reason I do not get chat, but this was fun to watch the other day. Right now I am not really super inclined towards MS or Sony...or both.

PC gaming has never looked more tantalizing. I'm willing to dump up to 3-times the price of these consoles if only I can get a kickass PC and a Rift. The freedom PC games afford is worth it alone.

The first half was worth the second watch through of the Reveal, but the sound going out of sync in the second half just ruins it. Then even the Hyrb thing is out of sync. At that point, it might as well be a podcast talking about something you can't see; or as they would say, "doesn't play."

@whatisdelicious: He may have been awfully rude, but he's right that a 100mg footprint at most isn't even close to 3 simultaneous OSs interacting with each other. Perliminary reports put the total footprint on the One's memory at 3 gigs taken up at all times to enable all that switching.

It won't matter now, or in a year, or even two years. But eventually between that and the RAM speed Xbox is going to lag behind everyone else.
