[daTRUballin]

New Conker or Banjo please.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Hopefully good stuff they have, but for some reason I feel it's gonna be just okay...hopefully I'm wrong.

 

[User 479360]

Same as it always is. Well, apart from being maybe 30 minutes later.

 

[daTRUballin]

I think this is the first year I can say I'd be content if Microsoft didn't show Banjo.

Take a guess why.

Yooka Laylee?

I doubt it's coming out this year anyway. Is it?

 

[That1BlackGuy]

Hype!

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Hype!

Forgot about this. Do want.

 

[ViciousDS]

vacation booking time!!! E3 party at my place....again!

 

[Volotaire]

Same as it always is. Well, apart from being maybe 30 minutes later.

Hate to be pedantic, but they have started at 9:30 for the past few years.

 

[witness]

So excited! Love their 1st party lineup every year, and I'm most hyped for Crackdown.

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

In for

Crackdown
Scalebound
Gears of War 4
Halo Wars 2
ReCore
Forza Horizon 3
Cuphead
Ashen
Sunset Overdrive 2
Ryse: Knights of England
Phantom Dust
Alan Wake 2
Age of Empires IV
Blue Dragon 2

 

[Neoxon]

Time to book off that monday and the following day. Can't be stuck at work when Nintendo reveals their new console.

They may reveal the NX device(s) before E3.

On-topic, I'll probably tune in just to see all of the Big 3.

 

[op_ivy]

honestly, not super hyped for e3 this year. of the expected titles, sea of theives, halo wars, horizon 3, deus ex, none of them really jump out at me for massive unadulterated hype. i mean i'll buy em more than likely, just not chomping at the bit for info/details/media. a new xbox console would be exciting, but i don't think thats this year.

 

[Trago]

Really hope they got someone else to develop Phantom Dust. Also, hoping for a new AAA Mistwalker JRPG. Do it Phil.

 

[RPGamer92]

Can't believe it's almost been a year since last E3. Time sure does fly.

 

[JehutyRunner]

For any Irish - or Swedish, for that matter - football loving posse who are aiming to watch this, be warned: this clashes with the Sweden-Ireland game at Euro 2016. First half will be half an hour in by the time MS kicks off and will clash with the remainder of the first half and the entire second half.

You've been warned.

Spoiler

Immediately realised there'd be a clash once the draw was made - first thought was 'FUCK!' >_<

 

[10k]

Greatest E3 in Xbox history 2.0

Recore
Halo Wars 2
Gears of War 4
Crackdown
Scalebound
Forza Horizon 3
Cuphead
New IP for sure

Hype!

 

[User 479360]

Hate to be pedantic, but they have started at 9:30 for the past few years.

Ah, okay. I couldn't remember if it was 9 or 9:30. 9 sounded right.

I went to theirs two years ago, but missed last year's.

 

[Blablurn]

I can taste the hype

 

[Courage]

There better be release dates for Recore and Cuphead.

 

[dragoncdf]

will it still be on spike this year?

 

[Sponge]

Yooka Laylee?

I doubt it's coming out this year anyway. Is it?

So far it hasn't been but wouldn't be surprised if it was.

 

[etta]

Give me Horizon 3.

The real Doffen would have put Crackdown above any other game, where have you taken him and what have you done to him?!?

 

[thekonamicode]

Poised to become the latest press conference in the Xbox family to date!

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Hell ya!

One ticket for they hypetrain!

 

[LordBaztion]

So, Titanfall 2 won't be unveiled at MS conference

 

[jbug617]

So, Titanfall 2 won't be unveiled at MS conference

No. In the email EA sent me it said it would be unveiled at EA Play on Sunday.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Usual time! That's good.

I hope Sony sticks to their Monday 6pm PST slot too.

 

[Grazzt]

Exam week as usual. Welp.

 

[Turkoop]

It's a bummer that EA won't have a classic E3 briefing, so who is going to take them place ? I mean between MS & Ubi will more than 4 hours..

 

[paragonpro]

Here we go. Will put my yearly request in for bano 3, prepared to be dissapointed by its non existence

 

[sixteen-bit]

I hope they show Phantom Dust

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

:looks at avatar:

take two should.

just this year

2 hours conference on just red dead 3 and maybe some GTAV stuff.

 

[BKG]

So, Titanfall 2 won't be unveiled at MS conference

Makes sense it would be at EA's conference. I'd bet a ton of money we will see a demo at mircrosofts as well

 

[Volotaire]

I don't think anyone will because PC Gaming has taken the 12:00 PT timeslot (an hour earlier than the usual EA timeslot of past years). Although this 'conference' is less important, I don't think anyone will attempt to overlap their times with other conferences on Day 0.

 

[Cranster]

I'm expecting a new Halo announcement either related to ongoing Halo 5 support after the summer or Halo 6 for 2018. Halo 3's 10th anniversary is next year aswell so who knows if they will announce an anniversary update for it either this E3 or next years E3.

 

[SlipperyMoose]

Aww yeah I'm ready. So closet yet so far. We have all the titles announced at previous conferences and I want to see them but I wonder if we will continue to see Microsoft continue to churn our new AAA IP.

 

[shinobi602]

Maybe we will finally see *snip* and new game announcements.

New game announcements? Lies.

 

[cyber_ninja]

Pizza and beer for me

Chicken wings and craft beer for me.

 

[Turkoop]

Damn, didn't even think of this.

I'll have to watch both at the same time because I don't miss Euro games.

 

[Salty Hippo]

I had very high expectations for their conference last year and it was a huge disappointment. It was THE time to come out guns blazing and at least try to turn things around, and all we saw was focus on tired old franchises, a CG trailer and an online-only game nobody asked from Rare. Sony's conference made it look even worse later that day.

This year I expect nothing at all in terms of new game announcements other than Horizon 3. I can't even make a list of predictions because I feel Spencer has completely given up on trying to compete with the PS4. They could fund another third-party exclusive like Sunset or ReCore, but why would they? At this point do games like that even matter for their business?

I don't know, I could be wrong but I just feel like Microsoft has no momentum or even motives to pursue risky projects right now. Hopefully games like Sea of Thieves, ReCore and Scalebound have a good showing.

Would be satisfied with:
- Banjo 3 announcement
- Jet Force Gemini announcement

I feel sorry for you already my friend.

 

[Banderdash]

I hope their conference expands to absorb EAs old timeslot too.

Well, there's the possibility of a new Battletoads being made, so that could possibly be shown at E3. If any Rare IP is going to be revived anytime soon, I would think it'd be that game based on all the hints and usage of the IP lately.

Then again, I thought for sure that they were going to announce Battletoads last year, and it didn't happen.

I'm" hoping for Halo Wars 2 footage or a gameplay trailer.

 

[jbug617]

New game announcements? Lies.

but the invitation says they are going to show the future. lol

 

[Bgamer90]

Already have Monday and Tuesday off during E3 week. Can not wait.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Awesome. Looking forward to new footage of Scalebound (mothafuggin Dragons!) and Crackdown 3. Also hoping Recore doesn't disappoint.

 

[CalamityPixel]

I hope they show Phantom Dust

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if they actually have something from Phantom Dust to show.

It's be a good surprise to regain trust and I'm sure they're working on something..

 

[Steverulez]

With Scalebound a 2017 game... I wonder if it will end up skipping E3 for Gamescom like Quantum Break did - which was an early/Spring 2016 title, and Scalebound did the same thing last year itself to mirror QB again. Crackdown 3 should be good to see with the multiplayer launching in the summer though

I guess it depends what else they have
