hopefully microsoft doesn't show shadow of war, its been shown to much imo

Of course they will. It along with assassins creed are their big 3rd party marketing deals for this holiday. You don't pay that money then not show it o the biggest stage

they should have requested the game not to be shown until e3, the game has hit an marketing fatigue imo

 

[Primethius]

Agree with you..I remember when he said Xbox didn't sell in Eu because Europe hated americans(???)

Who the fuck is buying the surfaces and the ipads and the iphones?? Who buys the music, floods the cinemas, watches the tv series...what a fucking moron

Jez certainly knows stuff but he's also fairly prominently an Xbox fan(boy). So I find it best to always seperate the insider details from the fan stuff in that regard, however sparse the former might be.

Well, yeah, covering Xbox is his job. LOL!

 

[Okami Haundo]

Wow, apparently I'm really late to the party and missed that 4Chan "leak". Was an interesting read but that's about all I consider 4Chan posts like that. Not willing to take any of that even remotely seriously until I see the live event.

 

[Primethius]

Okay...? One does not require the other.

 

[gamz]

Okay...? One does not require the other.

you can like something and still be critical. Again, it's his job.

 

[Xumbrega]

Just 3 more days..

Just. Three!

You know a game that is often underrated that Microsoft should reboot?

I loved this game

 

[Primethius]

Right. And the implication of my post, especially in the context of who I was quoting and what that poster was saying, is that I don't find that to be the case. Hence, the usage of the word fan(boy). The lines blur even more so when you're used as a leak source for NPD numbers in favorable months.

 

[sibarraz]

With all the Mixer hype, I'd watch it on Mixer cause you know Microsoft is going to make sure that stream is incredible. And that will be at 4K.

My tv does't support mixer as far as I know

If my notebook that runs at 1080 cold be used to open mixer and connect to my tv could the stream run at 4k?

jez criticizes their lack of 1P ip all the time on podcasts;obviously he has biases for them but he isn't some brainless fanboy.

 

[chaosmaster(1)]

If MS has Project Dylan and it's the first time it's shown they are really gonna push it hard. Besides Shadow of War which I feel has been shown too much I'm pretty excited to see both AC and Project Dylan because we haven't seen anything of substance from either.

 

[Theorry]

Whats with the Jez hating suddenly? He has been pretty on point with leaks. All we need.

I didn't say he was.

Yessssssss

To each their own. I only watched the initial announcement trailer, so have seen very little of it, so I'm definitely cool with seeing how it looks on the Scorpio especially.

 

[Xumbrega]

So what's the consensus about the 3P games we should expect at Microsoft conference?

Shadow of War
Assassin's Creed: Origins
Project Dylan
Splinter Cell (?)
Something from Bethesda, Starlight or Wolfenstein?

Seems about right?

 

[gamz]

I didn't say he was.

You implied in your posts that he is. If you are going to excuse people of it at least back it up. Otherwise it's drivel.

Um.

I didn't call him a brainless fanboy nor was that implied in my post.

 

[thiscoldblack]

I didn't know about this! Sunday at 5pm EDT is perfect.

 

[Zukkoyaki]

So what's the consensus about the 3P games we should expect at Microsoft conference?

Shadow and Assassin's Creed I think are 100% locks

My guess is that there will be a couple of others like Battlegrounds, Borderlands III or Project Dylan.

 

[Xumbrega]

Oh yeah, Battlegrounds and Borderlands III should make an appearance too..

Also, there has to be one big japanese game, maybe Monster Hunter, if the rumors are right.

I remember Schrier saying something about Dylan not being at E3 a while ago IIRC. But then now he says to expect it there. I guess maybe the post-Andromeda reception was a factor in showing the game off? Not really sure tbh.

I think they might be doing this because Destiny 2 is coming and they want to let people know it exists and assuming it's at the MS stage they see an opportunity for it to get a big push from MS. It may just be a trailer than a demo.

 

[Rocketz]

I'm expect AC to kick off the show

 

[sibarraz]

Is there a leak of the conference? couldn't find it in this thread

 

[jmartoine]

Either that or Crackdown 3.

 

[Okami Haundo]

If those Monster Hunter rumors are true I will be one happy camper! Loved the heck out of those games up until "Tri" and then it just started feeling too overwhelming. It'd also be fantastic to play on Xbox. Please be true, please be true!

I'm expect AC to kick off the show

Really? I'm thinking they'll talk Scorpio first thing just to get that out of the way. Follow that up with nothing but games that are all shown on Scorpio.

 

[Lee]

A sketchy and unreliable outline from 4chan was posted a ways back but no, no leak as of yet.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

They could just show the AC demo as a cold open and say, "You just saw that in 4K running on Scorpio hardware." or something like that. Good segway into the hardware.

Definitely this. There'll be the usual 'Teaser trailer, setting atmosphere' at the beginning of the show, then Spencer will come out, then they'll introduce Scorpio. Then games games games.

 

[Okami Haundo]

That's very true! An open like that would kick my hype into goddamn overdrive. Assassin's Creed is one of my favorite games!

 

[Primethius]

Here's something of interest from the Sony E3 thread:
https://twitter.com/RedMakuzawa/status/872821861624692736

Amazon Italy lists two unknown PS4 Square Enix titles. Reveal coming soon?

But, to quote another poster from that thread as well:

So typing Titolo SQX into the amazon search brings back this:

Titolo SQX PC - 1 - PC
Titolo SQX XBOX1 -1 - Xbox One

Titolo SQX PS4 - 2 - PlayStation 4
Titolo SQX PC - 2 - PC
Titolo SQX XBOX1 -2 - Xbox One

Titolo SQX PS4 - 3 - PlayStation 4
Titolo SQX XBOX1 -3 - Xbox One
Titolo SQX PC - 3 - PC

So either an error or a PC/XB1 Square Enix game to be revealed at the conference or Coliseum.

This was my thought.

 

[creamhackered]

new teaser https://twitter.com/Xbox/status/872830623018176516

 

[MilkyJoe]

I'm under the impression that it has been shared by the hardcore fanbase over twitter. Also some articles mention it

But pretty insignificant numbers in the long run


Anyway

Video today, Lion.

Where's that list?

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Free games and DLC?

 

[gamz]

Any new teaser today?

 

[Rocketz]

They've done giveaways before on the Xbox E3 streams IIRC

 

[tiredheadcrab]

They do giveaways during pro matches for gears and halo.

 

[Okami Haundo]

new teaser https://twitter.com/Xbox/status/872830623018176516

Oh dang! There were quite a few cuts to random footage in that one. Seems likely that they'll have more clues hidden! I'd say I'll start looking but I can't devote that much time to this whilst at work.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Very cool

Possibly, AceyBongos appears to be teasing that too:

Square Enix game XB1/PC only?

interesting..

 

[Okami Haundo]

I just saw this! Pretty darn cool that they pulled that off. Hoping it means something worthwhile to devs. I'm thinking that'll be really important for Scorpio in the long term for sure. Especially if PS5 comes out within Scorpio's lifespan.

[hanspampel]

80% increase in available RAM size for games over XBox One
not bad


(or was Xbox One 5.5Gb for games?)

 

[shandy706]

Very cool

Sweet, new thread...I'll make one if it hasn't already been done. That's pretty cool.

Edit** NM, already done.

 

[vivekTO]

Very cool

I think it will help Them to achieve Native 4k with 4k textures and hopefully higher framerates, Destiny 2 should be able to acheive 4k/60 fps now.
