I've watched about half the show so far (thanks for doing this on a weekday, Microsoft! Really appreciate it!) but so far it's a lot of fun. Some good stuff in there. I grabbed KH3 on the flash sale. Already had it on PS4 but wanted to play the prettier version anyway, and it was a good price for that.

Looking forward to the rest of the show.

Does anyone know how to watch it on Mixer on the console? I found it easy on a browser, but on the Mixer tab all I see is narcissists streaming themselves playing games. The mixer app warns me that the tab is the newer format. And searching in the old app for xo19 turns up nothing. I ended up just watching it in the YouTube app on the console instead.

Microsoft has become the best choice of the generation, silently. That makes me think that they'll be an even better choice next gen as long as Phil Spencer is the head of Xbox.

@BruceCM I was going to get all the Final Fantasy games on Xbox anyway so this is very welcomed. All the Kingdom Hearts games on Xbox is a big deal, too. I have played them on PS4 but the Dualshock 4 sucks, really. I'll get Kingdom Hearts III as planned on Xbox though, play that and start playing the (main) Final Fantasy games I have missed this far. FF XIV is a big deal too, now there's no Final Fantasy on PS4 not available on Xbox and the XIII trilogy is available on Xbox but not on PS4.

I'm curious about the whole show and trailers so I'll watch it this weekend like @NEStalgia. This makes your typical E3 show (Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo) quite underwhelming.

@NEStalgia Gonna watch it tomorrow. Already bookmarked it in YouTube, but seeing as it's well over an hour, I haven't found the time yet. But seeing as a lot of people are so positive about it, I simply HAVE to make the time, now that it's weekend, to see this for myself.

You mean FF XIV, @BlueOcean ... ? That & XI are the only ones in the series I don't want to play Still, great that you'll be able to play them all! Reminds me to get on with 1st FFXIII & XV, too

@BlueOcean I'd have to give it to Switch for a number of reasons but the biggest by far is the OS. I'd take boring, insanely fast OS over insanely slow OS any day.

@BruceCM Yes, XIV (I will correct that) and no, I don't think I'll play that one because it's online and time-consuming.

Yeah, I hear it's a good game, after they've worked on it a lot & all, @BlueOcean .... I'm glad it's there for anyone who wants to try it out
Shame, really; I'd buy FFIII, IV, After Years & VI for my XBox One if they were available there Those are more likely to come to Switch though, as I don't think they're available on PS4

@BruceCM
But, FF III and FF IV Remake has been released long time ago on NDS. FF III also on PSP but FF IV on PSP using HD 2D style.

The two biggest things from X019 for me were the new Microsoft Flight Simulator trailer and the Kingdom Hearts announcements. As a huge aviation fan, I can't wait to try this sim. The fact it's coming to Xbox is great, because my PC genuinly struggles to run Google Chrome sometimes.
Kingdom Hearts I'll definitely pick up, if I ever finish KH3.

Edit: I also can't wait for xCloud to be fully available. Playing Xbox games on my tablet is going to be great!

Yeah, @Anti-Matter .... I played FFIII & IV on DS originally! I have those, After Years & VI on my phone As I missed the PSP IV Complete Collection, I played that on Vita!
I'd like them on my Switch, really, to go with FFVII, VIII Remastered, IX, X/X2 & XII

@Matthew010 Xcloud is fantastic so far. Basically turns your phone into a Switch. Really enjoying it!

So is Halo Reach improved on Xbone at all? I think the original was 720p and 30fps. Is this new version identical or have they improved the resolution/framerate?

@Dezzy 4K 60fps for systems that support 4K, 1080p 60fps for systems that don't support 4K.

@Grumblevolcano

Im on Xbox One S with a 1080p computer monitor. So I should get 60fps and 1080p?

That is quite a good improvement over the 360 version then!

Not a Switch, @redd214 .... My internet is generally pretty good but it's not really reliably good enough for that It's fine for downloading, where it doesn't matter how long it takes but I'm not trying streaming games with it

@BruceCM yes a switch. I can play handheld or instantly connect to a TV same as the Switch. I think it's an accurate comparison.

BruceCM

Well, it won't play Switch games, @redd214 .... Anyway, I'm glad it's working well
