    Probably Xbox TV, Kinect 2.0, a few stats here or there and some renders similar to the PS4 showing.
    No CoD.



    ** Offers left nut for hint at Fallout 4 **

    We will see Call Of Duty tomorrow, as announced at the end of the Ghosts teaser trailer.

    And it is only the trailer - no demo.

    Actually imagine if this was Sony trolling given that Sony already has timed-exclusive Battlefield DLC...

    Just watched Michael Pachter's predictions on youtube and i agree with the points he made

    every console with come with Kinect and it will need to be switched on for the console to work and it will probably be always online

    I guess we'll find out tomorrow

    Durango is the codename for the developer hardware kits the next Xbox is based upon.

    Ahh, thanks! I guess stores might be using that name too for now, as they have to call it something on their systems.

    So, my predictions...

    Name - Xbox
    We won't get a price
    If they are more specific than 'holiday' it'll just be a month and no detail on regions
    They won't go into much detail about the specs, they'll tell us it has 8GB RAM and emphasise that it has EIGHT CORES
    We will see the box
    Kinect will be there but no arm flapping, instead ball tickling and focus on voice commands for everything, including turning the console on from standby, they may demo that at the start of the show after showing the box.
    Illumiroom shown but as a vision of the future of what the console could be capable of doing in years to come

    For games, COD, FIFA, BF4 and NFS trailers and Alan Wake 2 live demo.

    Always online mentioned in a roundabout way, never using the term always online, and sold as a feature.

    Obligatory celebrity appearance will be Jay Z and Daft Punk will provide the opening music.


    Now your turn!

    Are other people really excited for this? to be honest i'm not but i watch just to see what they show

    It just doesn't (for me) have the same Buzz that the PS4 conference had, I remember from the day the did the tease for PS Meeting, loads of my friends where talking about it all the time and it seemed we were all getting hyped for it and then after the meeting every was buzzing saying they were getting one etc

    With the Xbox meeting, since they announced a date, I haven't been that excited and i haven't even talked about it with friends, in fact the only people i've seen post about as pages i like such as Gametrailers, how are trying to get the hype machine going and failing

    This could work in Mircosoft's favor though, i could sit down to watch and be completely blow away, with PS4 i expected something i would like and they delivered, with Xbox i'm going in not caring so if i come out hyped then they have probably done as good a job if not better than Sony

    I'm not caring as much about this reveal as the PS4 one, but still, it's always good to see a new console. I'm just stuggling to care about the Xbox anymore, but that is just me. The reveal will probably be huge news in America though, and big news in the UK too.

    Now your turn!

    I'm thinking the celebrities will more be along the lines of Skrillex or Deadmau5 or Diplo or even someone a bit more famous like will.i.am.

    I'm predicting dub step, and maybe they'll wheel out Messi or another famous sports star. I'm thinking that there will also be some youtube 'stars' too. I'm just a bit cynical really :p

    YouTube 'star' is a good shout, MS love to seem like they know what you like! Hence overuse of celebs...

    Oh and I forgot to mention that I think they will have a second screen solution in response to Wii U game pad and the Vita.

    but your a PS fanboy, so you wouldn't be as excited for this as you were for Sony's.

    They already have Smartglass, but it's been woefully underused so far. Although it's nice that they utilise multiple existing devices, the lack of physical controls and knowing where to it the bloody thing when you are holding the controller are restrictive. Hopefully they will have something in mind.

    I'm thinking someone along the lines of epicmealtime, introduced with lots of wubwubwubwubwubwubwub dubstep!
