Can't wait to see Halo Wars 2, Forza Horizon 3, Crackdown 3, Gears 4, a huge blowout on Sea of Thieves and Recore, a little bit more of Cuphead as well as maybe something with Titanfall 2.

1 ticket for the train please! We're 2 weeks away!

 

[BKSmash]

I need to go on that hype train.

This is the year a new Banjo game will be announced, I can feel it!

Spoiler

Now let the festivities begin!

Hype Train!

One ticket for the train, cant wait btw. Hopefully we see some more crackdown and sea of thieves! Maybe a recore release date but I feel like that may be 2017 now

 

[Loris146]

Only interested in FH 3 and Scalebound.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

I really hope they don't push Scalebound to Gamescom again, but they probably will.

Cuphead release date will do though.

 

[Strootman]

Sadly, I don't expect to see Scalebound at E3. I expect them to push it as the main title at Gamescom like they did with Quantam Break last year since they moved it to a 2017 game.

God no.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Haha.. Nice. Hopefully they let the thread stand!

Boarding the hype train! Choo Choo!

Can't wait for E3 week.

 

[mejin]

The right time to have some announcements, I just remember Halo Wars 2 and that was last year.

 

[shinobi602]

Sadly, I don't expect to see Scalebound at E3.

It'll be there.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

It'll be there.

FUCK YES! Bless this messenger of good news!

 

[Plinko]

New Banjo Kazooie or bust. That and Sea of Thieves will make or break the show for me, probably.

Looking forward to Forza Horizon 3.

 

[Bsigg12]

It'll be there.

Well that's a relief!

 

[Strootman]

It'll be there.

What else do you know? Just a tease pretty please.

 

[bidguy]

It'll be there.

you wouldnt know anything about new consoles by chance ?

 

[lohankain]

Best days of the year ! Boarding the Hype Train too

 

[Loris146]

It'll be there.

Good news.

 

[etta]

Ooh ooh ooh get me on that train!
So hyped!
Edit: Post 117!!! Chief will be there!

 

[piccio_ssl]

It'll be there.

Oh thank god

 

[pitchfork]

I'll take one ticket for the hype train if I may, please Sir

Managed to get the day off work this year (my first E3 since becoming a GAF member too!)

Gears 4 currently topping my most anticipated list

 

[Tesser]

So then, predictions for order of the conference and time allotted? I'm thinking it'll go something like:

Gears 4 (in-depth single-player, big 'hype/sad song MK II' trailer)
Phil 'half-buttoned blazer' Spencer speech MGS4-style: "Xbox has changed..."
Xbox-Windows 10 section & backwards compatibility expanded
ID@Xbox/Indie Showcase (Cuphead, Below & Inside [finally] get release dates)
Forza (car porn a plenty)
Fallout 4 mods/DLC chat (regardless of whether it's already been announced at Bethesda's conference)
Crackdown 3 (campaign, multiplayer, beta announced)
Re-Core (new trailer, tiny bit of gameplay)
Sea of Thieves (in-depth gameplay, beta announced)
Scalebound (trailer, no gameplay, no date aside from the ominous 2017 stapled on)
Xbox SlimOne unveiling...cryptic/ambiguous speech on codename Scorpio that could mean anything
Halo Wars 2 (gameplay, multiplayer sneak-peak, beta)
New/Revived IP (CGI trailer only)
Phil Spencer finally unbuttons his blazer; more ambiguous talk on the future of Xbox
-fin-

There's probably some AAA third party stuff in there somewhere that I'm forgetting.

 

[Warxard]

Alright. Alright. Recore and Scalebound is good enough.

But...is Phantom Dust dead Shinobi ;~;

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Btw Halo Wars 2 will be playable at E3... and another Halo thing will be announced there. Whatever that is.

 

[Obscuritas]

Love me some updates on Scalebound.

 

[Lazaro]

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

The Xbox conference is typically an hour right?

 

[piccio_ssl]

The Xbox conference is typically an hour right?

90 minutes

 

[Zeta Oni]

It'll be there.

Would you mind if I use this information in the thread I made collecting all the Scalebound news? I like to keep it updated and previous to this post, I was only hoping it was gonna be at E3.

 

[pitchfork]

The Xbox conference is typically an hour right?

90 mins I believe this year

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

90 minutes

Hmm. May have to catch highlights. Any good YouTube channels for abridged versions?

 

[Obscuritas]

.

Best one so far.

 

[FordGTGuy]

It'll be there.

Shinobi already in here dropping hype bombs.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Hmm. May have to catch highlights. Any good YouTube channels for abridged versions?

Cool Ghosts and VideoGamerTV on Youtube are both good.

It'll be there.

Yass!

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Gold.

 

[Kibbles]

I'm hoping for more Halo besides Halo Wars 2, Halo Wars is completely uninteresting to me.

 

[blue_phazon]

Btw Halo Wars 2 will be playable at E3... and another Halo thing will be announced there. Whatever that is.

I'm betting on more continued support for Halo 5. Especially with Frankie confirming that June isn't necessarily the last month of dlc

 

[DriftingSpirit]

I'm hoping for more Halo besides Halo Wars 2, Halo Wars is completely uninteresting to me.

I don't think Halo 6 will be a thing until next year.

Edit - Ah, Halo 5 support is on the table too.

 

[bidguy]

I don't think Halo 6 will be a thing until next year.

Edit - Ah, Halo 5 support is on the table too.

didnt they announce 4 and 5 2 years before release at e3 ?

 

[tareqsalah1]

Not a xbox fan, dont own a xbox but ill watch like every year.

Pleeeeeeease no more (forza-gears-halo)
Show us new games, not just cgi trailers.

Give me a reason to buy the xbox.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Halo Wars 2, Scalebound, Crackdown, Sea of Thieves...

[FordGTGuy]

Is the scorpion on the hype train a bit much?

 

[RoKKeR]

It'll be there.

Aw yes.

 

[El_Chino]

I want in on the hype train.

 

[T.O.P]

Is the scorpion on the hype train a bit much?

Nah it's great lol

 

[MLCodest]

Also one ticket to the train please!

 

[gamz]

I want in on the hype train.

No. Can we get a Scorpion please?

 

[MaulerX]

Hype train? Count me in. This ones gonna be one hell of a ride!

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Hype! Can't wait to see ReCore and Crackdown!

 

[jbug617]

343 confirmed Halo Wars 2 is playable at E3

 

[Glendemonium]

If they announce Steam on One, Sunset Overdrive 2 and floor me with Crackdown 3 it will make me repurchase a ONE... but with the new version coming next year I should wait or play these on PC anyway.

 

[Gurrry]

Where the hell did this year go? How is it E3 time already??!?!?!
