If it's anything like the past four E3's... games, games, games, games and games.
I kinda hope they have some Ori music again this year.

Phil Spencer: The Xbox E3 conference should be 100 minutes long

If it's anything like the past four E3's... games, games, games, games and games.
I kinda hope they have some Ori music again this year.
I mean, what? How would you know anything about the contents?
Anyway, I'm pretty damn excited this year for an MS E3, pretty much just because of Halo and Cyberpunk. Oh, and also Anthem.
Sony will definitely close on either The Last of Us 2 or Ghosts of Tsushima.
User warned: Driveby post
I can't wait for the 30 minutes of screen time for games no one gives a shit about
I love E3. Bring on lengthier conferences. Don't be afraid to say a few words about certain games or software.
LOL fanbois jealous there won't be Usher retelling the Gears of War saga via a 20 minute long interpretive dance number at the Sony conference. Stay salty.10 minutes for the return of... Usher
Hopefully this is to show us more demos and talk details, not give us trailers for 2019 releases. I don't mind them talking the nuts and bolts, makes the result more appreciated.
They better show some 2019 releases... they're just about done releasing/clearing out their entirety of announced exclusives.
You act like a lot of Sony's conferences don't have a lot of 3rd party games in them.
Some are obviously joke posts but these.. these are drive-by posts. Then again it is a MS thread so it is to be expected.
By the way, there WILL most likely be a car in the stage.
The new McLaren LT from their sports series which was just teased a few days ago. Mark my words.
I really really really hope Microsoft pulls it off....
And I say this as a Sony guy through and through. MS is looking pathetic right now. We need that competition and some 1st party exclusives. No weak 3rd party timed exclusives. People want to be proud again of the brand man.
Just look at those Nintendo kids! Child like glee on their faces hehe. Switch selling gangbusters with good content. Yeah the port begging gets a bit rough, but I'm really happy for them. I wanted to pick up an Xbox 1X one day, but I only have about 4 games (Quantum Break, Ryse, ReCore: Def Ed, and Rare Collection) on my radar. Not enough man. Its looking like a repeat of the 360. *fingers crossed*
Pretty much the same thing like last year. All the 2 hours meant was a block they saved. You could probably only save in half hour increments.
Yep, actually 3 minutes shorter than last year if it's accurate, but with all these hot takes in this thread, you'd think something unexpected is going on here.
Fair enough. I wouldn't mind a 70/30 mix because I'm impatient and wouldn't mind a handful of games shown to be out by the holidays. But if anything, at least show us (even alpha) gameplay instead of cinematic trailers for them all
Xbox conferences are so archaic. They seem to be the last company to revise their showcase format, if they ever do.
Hopefully that's the case, I know Crackdown 3 is delayed, but they still better show some gameplay too. If not at their presser, than hopefully on Inside Xbox the following day.
They did the same thing last year and showed games. Good lord some of these posts in here.
I really want to see if Rare has anything new or if other developers are working on Rare IPs. I have wanted a sequel to Conker's Bad Fur Day for years but I think Battletoads or Banjo-Kazooie is more plausible at this point.
That was already announced. I mean new games to replace the loss of crackdown in their release schedule.
Nothing is going on. That's just how I've felt about their conferences the past several years. They're long and drawn out.
Add another to the list, people really have no shame.
Anyways I'm really looking forward to what Xbox has up its sleeves
Not sure you will see anything to replace it for 2018. They are expected to be announcing 2019 and even some 2020 games at E3.
This E3 will have much larger first party studios as well a series larger first party games focus, sources saying Microsoft doubled their amount of first party studios in the past few months (more than 4 new studios to announce at E3) This will more be showing you the future of Xbox rather than just 2018 games.
They said they wouldn't do this anymore but they are doing it this year to show people that they are committed to first party. They are expected to address the first party situation in detail and talk about how they are fixing it.
In terms of first party/Microsoft Studios, insiders are saying it's the best E3 show Microsoft has had in years and a lot of games will be announced. Just don't expect them in 2018.
Sounds good to me, their last conferences have all been games games games like Sony's.
See, here's the thing, what you consider good and what others consider good are completely different things.
I couldn't care less for Forza, but I wouldn't consider the amount of time they put into it padding.

Some people think it's weird to want to see less games at a conference devoted to games.
Sure, making a more condensed show could result in less games being shown, but that is not what I was suggesting.
Wasn't there rumours of 3 gears games being made. I would have assumed at least one of them was 2018.
One of these days, ResetEra will be able to have an XB1 thread without stupid and pathetic console wars potshots.
There is no meat or credibility to that three Gears games rumor. We only know of two Gears games being in development.
An XCOM-like spinoff from Splash Damage and Gears of War 5 from The Coalition.
Spin-off expected to be released in Spring 2019 and Gears 5 expected to be released in Spring 2020 or Fall 2020.
What we do know from insiders is that Microsoft wants to release at least one first party game in every quarter of the year to make people subscribe to Game Pass year-round. Forza Horizon 4 in the Fall and Ori and the Will of the Wisps in Winter would fit that.
