What could the second game be? especially to look better than a 4k locked 60 fps racer. If they did see this second game (I'm guessing it's one we already know of) do you think we might also see it alongside Forza 7, if not footage but described by digital foundry.

Well, that's reassuring to hear. The last thing I had read up on about them was about shifting to multiplayer.
Ori and the will of the wisps.

From what we have all gathered, that the information being provided hopefully later this week is primarily/majority going to be about hardware. I would suggest we keep this in mind as the last few pages have been people arguing about software...and of course software is very important, the upcoming info is about hardware. I think the E3 threads will be where we should focus on talking about software....I think we need to try to stay focused on this thread being about hardware.
Regardless of what is revealed as far as hardware, I don't think bringing up software after this hardware reveal would be productive for the thread that is about hardware. This should be a hardware thread and if people are bringing up software variety, SP Narrative games etc. when the focus should be on the hardware specs that we are tentatively going to hear about it is just going to derail the thread even further.

It would be something like this, only badly writen:
Onq was right all along. Scorpio is only a 3tf machine and devkits are overheating on top of that. The latest sdk also is so bad it's running games worse than xbone, truthfact.
I tried asking, they are probably not going to tell me, but it's worth the shot

You don't bank on just that. It's suppose to be one of many games that you greenlight, but you don't ditch Quantum Break. I repeat. You do not ditch Quantum Break. I will literally go ape shit if I don't get to see how that story continues after the way that game ends. They've got a serious winner on their hands.
It's got to be a first party game. I say it was crackdown 3. Probably the best bet to knock the socks off people.

Probably Crackdown.
could be Mordor.
Yeah, expailly if they announce that the campaign missions mode has the same level of destruction as the cloud based mode when played on Scorpio

Wonder if Ori will be all grown up this time around...
*From the EDGE making of story on Ori published a couple months back. It's a pretty interesting article for anyone interested.

With all of their financial problems, I can't believe they haven't sold it. MS could buy what remains of Crytek with ease. I really want Ryse 2 lol.

JESUS THIS GETS ME STILL. I WANT A DAMN SEQUEL!
Really? Crackdown still has to have that defining art style, that art style doesn't make me think amazing graphics. Don't get me wrong 4k texture, super high IQ crackdown especially with it being open world with all the destruction would look super impressive but not better than a scorpio Forza build.
My mother always made me wear padded gloves for this reason

I bet Sea of Thieves. It already had a beautiful aesthetic and art style. I bet it could be a looker with 4k assets.

Part of me, even though I know it's not going to happen, still hopes P7 from Remedy has a chance of being a sequel to Quantum Break. Remedy did only rule out P7 as not being Alan Wake 2 but wouldn't say the same for any of the other IPs they worked on. One might hope P7 is early enough that it could get picked up as Quantum 2 if the stars align.
Dare to dream.

Microsoft has a major game it hasn't announced yet, so maybe it could be one of those.
I pray that's what's going on, and they're being secretive about it, maybe not wanting to announce what they're working on too early.

Me to loved the first game. I would settle for Alan wake 2 as a consolation prize. Frustrating MS has so many ip I love but not 1 being worked on.

It's most likely Crackdown 3.

OMG, it seems Scorpio will launch on Brazil! (the S never did officially so no one was sure Scorpio would)

Don't forget about the broken OS. It's like we're back in 2013!

Oh, I forgot to say, the people from Xbox Brazil also confirmed something on Thursday, and they will talk about it on their inside Xbox channel on Friday.

That was Pete I'm pretty sure.
Great news another source confirming Thursday can't wait. Hope we find out if full Vega and how much custom tech in the GPU.

Isn't Eurogamer based out of London? Should we expect something on Thursday London time?
Digital Foundry usually uploads to YouTube early morning.

That will be ~afternoon in my time zone, if they upload it at morning, that will be nice.

Or Scalebound reboot...
Just as alikely as any other dreamware being thrown around in here I know.
Maybe not old Crackdown. New crackdown could look much better graphically

It's amazing how much attention scalebound gets now. The threads use to be graveyards before it was canceled.

Sooner than I expected, but intriguing. Hardware is all that's necessary atm, given that its release is still a ways out and E3 is the typical software showcase.
Oddly enough, I'm curious how it welk it will function as a UHD player. The S seems like the best out there so far, so hopefully it improves upon that foundation.

I have a feeling crackdown will steal the show at E3. The huge scale and destruction on the Scorpio at native 4k just screams mind blowing.

Yeah, they could add Dolby Vision Support in addition to HDR to it as well, which would be another differential thing about it. I know the current theme is the excitement or depending on who you are the "there is no software", for me it is all about hardware for now and then software at E3.
Things I want to know confirmed/talked about:
Total amount of RAM and what type/speed
Total bandwidth
GPU Total TF Count and what this new GPU can do as far as special functions
CPU Type, Speed etc.
Inputs (HDMI - How many)
Dolby Vision Support along with HDR support
Speed of UHD Drive
HDD Size or Type (SSHD hopefully)
I don't expect price, release date or final form factor from this reveal. I just want a detailed deep dive into the hardware, we are talking pages and pages of information/data to munch over.
Things/people become more famous after they die.

I believe a slate of new games are going to utiize dolby vision since it no longer requires specific hardware and can be added to devices via firmware/software.
I think i read it on gaf or the avs forum.
I would love to hear that support for the superior hdr format.
