Xbox Reveal Event to be One Hour Long – Major Nelson

A sell within 60 minutes? We'll soon find out.

Posted By | On 21st, May. 2013

With Microsoft set to announce the next Xbox, which will compete with Sony’s next-generation PlayStation 4, one would wonder as to the amount of content that Microsoft will be showcasing.

After all, we do know that EA will be present along with FIFA and Battlefield 4, along with the gameplay reveal of Activision’s Call of Duty: Ghosts. This isn’t even counting the console itself, its new features and online services and the new Kinect.

But according to Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb on Twitter, the Xbox Reveal event will only be an hour long (which goes against previous reports on GAF that it would run for two hours).

Given how E3 is just around the corner, Microsoft might be looking to tease gamers right now while laying the full banquet out at E3 2013. Of course, tonight’s reveal could easily just be all about Kinect, social sharing and living room gaming. At least they’ll be showcasing the console though, right?

What are your thoughts? Did you expect the event to run for longer or is an hour enough?
