Microsoft this year was not in the best position in relation to its main competitor in the face of Sony. Xbox One is sold much more modestly than the PlayStation 4, and developers are increasingly eager to work primarily with the Japanese publisher. That's why the Redmond giant had to roll out all his heavy artillery on stage to demonstrate his readiness to fight for the title of champion of this console generation. What of all this happened - judge for yourself after reading my detailed report about an hour and a half press conference.
The conference was opened by video clip from the main Microsoft franchises. Epic music, profiles of the main characters, the scope with which the Redmond corporation approached the conference is felt. Why, and Microsoft really has enough money, which is very noticeable when it comes to acquiring exclusivity for some games or buying entire studios along with all their IP.
The first of the games of the conference was Halo 5: Guardians. The audience was shown several story insertions and the first real gameplay of the game. Let me remind you that before that we saw only multiplayer. Although a single-player campaign can be held four together with your friends. The game will go on sale on October 27, 2015.
Multiplayer cards have become four times larger. Try them all will be able to without exception E3 visitors.

Announced backward compatibility of Xbox One with Xbox 360. In order not to be unfounded, the developers of Xbox One software demonstrated the Mass Effect game launched on it. The first games of the previous generation will be available to all comers already at the end of this year. Of course, we are talking about both disk and digital releases. Games, apparently, will not have to buy a second time for the new console. It was a smart gesture from the leadership of Microsoft, and the audience welcomed him with a standing ovation.
Announced the controller Xbox Elite. Increased accuracy of control, adjustable hammers, petals for switching speeds in races, unique D-Pad, modular structure. Very professional toy for professional gamers.
We were once again shown the gameplay of Fallout 4, which includes new frames. For example, as the main character in a power suit shoots a crowd of enemies from a heavy machine gun. Owners of Xbox One will be available free fashion for the game.

And after it goes there Dragon Age Inquisition. All holders of the Xbox Live Gold subscription will be able to use the service during the week, while the E3 show is on, completely free. Also we were first shown by Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2.
The turn of the Forza Motorsport series has come. The hall has already traditionally demonstrated a brand-new roadster sports car Ford GT, which was lowered from under the ceiling of the hall on a hanging platform. More than 450 cars, a lot of tracks, advanced multiplayer, 1080p at 60 frames per second. And the game will be released on September 15.
