Microsoft E3 2014 predictions

aed0db675bf5e563ed37efe2346d3e74.png

They should have asked if that includes big budget AAA games or just XBLA games (not that I mind XBLA games).
 
As I posted from the recent E3 predictions thread:

Xbox:

Conker's BadLToads Fur Day
Brute Force 2 Featuring Vince Vaughn
Halo 5
Gears 5
Forza Horizon 2
Banjo's Ghostly Ghoulies

In all seriousness though I really do want another game from a Rare series. Banjo is definitely up there but Conker would be best. Luckily they now seem to have no problem allowing other developers to work on Rare series.

Phil said in that interview a few months ago that the old IPs were his blind spot previously. The focus on the old IPs will be great.

I really don't think Sony can compete with great Rare IPs. I think Banjo is very likely.

Yeah, I think it might be a mix. The best news out of all of this is we'll be getting juicy new gaming info throughout the month of May..so there will be a big build, can't wait.
 
I expect a few new IPs.

Quoted for new page. Also lowle.

If they manage to show off a new Conker I will happy as hell. I think i'm gonna go in with the expectations of just a Halo, Gears, and Forza E3 so I can't be anything but satisfied when it's over.

If Quantum Break and Sunset Overdrive are both supposed to be launching this fall I expect them to be there. Minecraft has got to show up at either Xbox's or PS's conference. They announced that saved worlds on 360 would transfer to the Bone. Maybe they'll make a big intro out of it like they did last year.
 
I did't get that feeling! Not saying all them are going to be first-party, but I could see one them being first-party

Some new studios we are working with seems to imply that it's not studios owned by them.

Or maybe he's just hiding that leaf in the forest. Who knows till E3.
 
I wish Microsoft would update more games halo anniversary style. Give the first banjo game a fresh coat of paint using the xb1 hardware and the n&b engine, place it on the xbl marketplace for $20-$30, and advertise it on the dashboard. I think it would do pretty well.
 
Halo 2 Anniversary with the original(ish) multiplayer; Halo 5 moves to 2015.

Crackdown 3 announced.

Some more Gears, Fable, Forza.

More on Halo TV, expansion of NFL promo stuff from last year.

If there's a price cut this year I don't see it coming at E3, but rather in the fall/holidays.

I like seeing this happen beause new people have easier access to games they might have missed while fans can replay and support a game they love.
 
Do Activision doing their own thing again this year? If not, I expect Kelvin Spacey on stage for introducing house of COD.
 
Here is what I expect, or want, to be announced:
Xbox originals: OG Xbox games for digital download @ 1.99 to 4.99 a pop for Xbox One
Live Gold drops paywall for apps that require subscription and for Free-to-Play games
Halo2 Anniversary, with original MP intact.
QB game play
Sunset Overdrive live demo
Titanfall sales, player and DLC info also, that they locked up the sequel as Xbox One exclusive
COD: Advance Warfare demo
Teases for Gears of War Reboot, Halo 5, Crackdown 3, KI second season and Gears of War/Halo Box sets
ID@Xbox sizzle reel
Rare’s new projects, viva piñata & Battletoads
Spencer will also announce partnerships with studios to bring back Prefect Dark, Crimson Skies and Mech Assault
At least 2 new IPs, that will leak a day or so before they are announced
Games for the Japan launch to be shown prior to E3 to get the hype machine started
Kinect games will be shown on the floor but not at the presentation
 
State Of Decay (Class 4 Trailer)
Halo (2 or 5)
Sunset Overdrive (Gameplay)
Horizon 2 Trailer
Steel Battalion
Perfect Dark
Jet Force Gemini

Alan wake xbox one port
 
Horizon 2 Gameplay
Advanced Warfare gameplay
H2A gameplay untouched
Quantum Break early 2015
Halo 5 for fall 2015
Gears teaser, 2016 date
Overdrive gameplay
White Xbox One
$50 pricecut
Out of left field exclusive to appeal to a niche fanbase
Rededication to bringing the games, an almost apology
Last gasp for Kinect games.


This is my baseline expectation. And honestly, its not enough to move the needle back in their direction IMO. Hoping to be surprised.

Can't see them doing Halo, PD, and Jet Force at the same time. That is way too many futuristic scifi shooters to make all at once.
 
I was thinking they might announce a white SDK with a larger hard drive and drop the price of the current SDK down to 450.

I'd really like them to sell those white controllers, they are really good looking.
 
Opening trailer. Probably of a big 3rd party game.

360 housekeeping. One or two new games and a lower price tag.

Leads into XB1 with new price tag, Games with Gold and no more App paywalling crap.

Lionhead / Fable.

Rare game of the core variety!

3rd party showcase / sizzle real.

Big Kinect game. Probably casual affair like Dance Central.

Killer Instinct Season 2.

Indie talk / showcase. Minecraft XB1 showing.

Teh cloud.

Project Fortaleza.

Quantum Break.

Forza Horizon 2.

State Of Decay 2.

Project Nagano.

Halo 2 Anniversary.

Close with a megaton of some sort.
 
I'm betting on them doing a musical number to open up the conference, with all the major Xbox staff taking a verse before joining in on the chorus "We're sorry!" with highlights like the employees throwing darts at Mattrick's face on a dartboard, Major Nelson flicking a switch with an apologetic expression, and a parade through a huge gate with "RESOLUTION" written on it. Maybe this is a bit of an outside bet though.

I'm hoping for an old Rare franchise, what about Blast Corps as downloadable game?

343 will unveil a larger plan than we are currently aware of. Who knows, Halo 2, 5, and some sort of Halo Wars RTS or even MOBA?

I reckon either Sony or MS will have got their hands on No Man's Sky.

Gameplay of Sunset Boulevard is a must and might be a highlight.

Nothing else to add, this thread is already full of great predictions, can't wait. Just hope they rehearse enough and get the execution right on the day, no pressure peeps!

They are still quite different but yeah maybe it's too much. That being said if MS decided to make a new Jet Force Gemini what studio could be a good fit? I'd say Insomniac (though they are focused on SO right now) or maybe Platinum Games.

Either way hype levels are rising with the latest tweets from Phil, hopefully we'll have a great show this year from everyone...it's been a long time since we had a truly great E3.
 
Maybe, but the innovation they are teasing about the multiplayer might be really cool. The color scheme alone makes the game look fresh, we'll see I guess.

I still want my musical though.

Sorry bro, I'm messin' with ya. Sunset Boulevard sounds boring. But Sunset Overdrive sounds incredible ;)

Oh lol, I didn't even realize I wrote that, I must have musicals on the brain. They should totally use the main song though:

Sunset Overdrive, twisting Overdrive
Secretive and rich, a little scary
Sunset Overdrive, tempting Overdrive
Waiting there to swallow the unwary

If that doesn't happen I'm going to cry.
 
A New Crackdown - already know this is being worked on
Halo Quad HD (All 360 halo games remastered in hd with beta access to new halo)
A new PGR
Forza Horizon 2
Quantum Break and sunset overdrive game play
Couple of Rare/Kinnect shovelware games
New Gears of War

And some sort of Titanfall announcement which will cause a meltdown if the word "exclusive" or "two" is mentioned
 
I might be in the minority but I would love a new Links game.

I could see them reviving at least one of these ip's,
Mechassault, Crimson Skies, Blinx, Conker, Perfect Dark, Phantom Dust, Project Gotham.

Tenchu or a Japanese wrestling game would go over well for Japanese gamers.

Voodoo Vince seems like a possible candidate. It's Phil Spencer's favourite Xbox game, and is apparently one of Major Nelson's too. They have to get the guy that made the awesome OST back though.
 
I'm hoping they show off Cortana for the Xbox One. Would be pretty cool if they decided to go all cylinders on that to have it on every one of their platforms this year.

But also Halo, and Quantum Break.

Would be sweet if they, instead of dedicating a part of the show to Cortana, instead use Cortana to present the game. Like, "Alright Cortana, lets have that next trailer."


CALLLLLLEDDD ITTTTTT.
 
The Flash's super interesting predictions:

Quantum Break gameplay (finally!)
Killer Instinct Season 2 Reveal Trailer
Something Rare IP related
A Japanese exclusive
Sunset Overdrive gameplay
Something with indies
New 1st party and 3rd party titles
Halo 2 Anniversary
Halo TV
Price cut
Minecraft for XB1
GWG for XB1
 
Anyone think that they will announce/show World of Tanks Xbox One edition? With all the work they have been doing with the 360 version, I would think they would continue the love and make a Xbox One version.

I also think something Titanfall related will be shown or talked about. Respawn was really flapping their mouths about optimizations and specifically increased resolution/performance prior to launch of the game and a bit right after and then just silence.
 
Media apps dropped from pay wall
Games with gold for X1
An ever expanding collection of og xbox games 5 dollars or less to buy/ free to play with gold
Some kind of answer for gaikai
Quantum break game play
sunset overdrive game play
H2A
Halo 5 tease
fable legends trailer
Deal with crytek to make a Perfect dark sequel

Speaking of Crytek, anyone think that a tease of the next Ryse game will be shown/mentioned? I know there was the rumor of something called Ryse: Knights of England or something close to that.
 
The only entertainment I would want talked about is them to expand on the NFL deal and offer NFL Redzone but that seems like it could be talked about farther down the road,

I would like Halo news H2A (hopefully) or I would settle for H5 news as long as it returns to the roots of the series.

Whatever undead labs is working on also.. I really liked state of decay for what it was but the potential with multiplayer could be massive.

Other than that as long as they at least try some new IP's im cool with it, I like the 3rd party stuff have as exclusive but at some point they need their own IP's that are not shooters.

Also on a side note Fallout 4 better be announced at E3 or I may be forced to take extreme measures.

Thought about that after I posted I'd rather them do PD though haha

Yea. I was thinking about that earlier. I liked ryse. It'd probably be a 2015 release but it'd be super pretty
 
I just want to hear Keith Davids voice as Thel 'Vadam (The Arbiter) on a black screen, then fade into a trailer of Halo 5 on Sanghelios.
 
So what are people's plans for keeping in contact if/when GAF goes down? Bsigg12 and I discussed looking into Skype or setting up a chat. I for one would hate to miss out on your guys' reactions when this thing goes live.
 
State Of Decay (Class 4 Trailer)
Halo (2 or 5)
Sunset Overdrive (Gameplay)
Horizon 2 Trailer
Steel Battalion
Perfect Dark
Jet Force Gemini

Alan wake xbox one port

This would be a day one purchase, especially if it included all the DLC and American Nightmare.

I wouldnt expect Ryse to be there personally.

I do expect to see a short teaser for Undead Labs next project though
 
Not only do they need to bring back Links, I could stand for a new Top Spin as well

Me too!

Voodoo Vince seems like a possible candidate. It's Phil Spencer's favourite Xbox game, and is apparently one of Major Nelson's too. They have to get the guy that made the awesome OST back though.

I vaguely remember that game but more platformers and less shooters is always welcomed imo.


That has dualshock buttons on it, lol.
