Giant Bomb @ E3 2017: <>

Also Tomb Raider.

What third-party dev studio would Microsoft have locked down to make an exclusive? Y'know, like Scalebound but without all the failure.
 
I think we'll see a Forza. That Digital Foundry article pushed it so it must be something Microsoft want to push, even if it's just a patch

also it's been, what, a couple of weeks since the last Forza? It's probably time for another

A good hearts and minds move would be to pump money into Darksiders 3. The game had a shaky reveal but with MS internal support they could go in for the save.
 
From Software? That would be a real statement from MS.

If they don't have something genuinely new that gets shown somewhere there better be some Bloodborne 2 shit showing up at Sony.

Unless they go back to the drawing board and make it a 4-player co-op game with Zelda dungeons, it's never gonna be the real Darksiders sequel I need.
 
Asura's Wrath spiritual successor would be maybe the most exciting Japanese thing I can think of, but a QTE game will not fly in 20167.

You expect a strong japanese games presence in the Microsoft presser?

I mean, why even watch if that's all you want to see.

It's not that he's expecting that, it's just that that will be inherently interesting if it happens.

They've released one every year since the xb1 came out. I think forza is a given.
 
I am one of those guys that simply can't watch most cringe-worthy stuff because the embarrassment gets transferred to me and I feel fucking terrible. Like a minor anxiety attack.

It's also the reason why I hate practical jokes where the 'humor' is how people react to weird stuff. I am hyper cringe sensitive.

I watched the need for speed botch like 4x already. It gives me energy and hope.
 
steel batallion mother fuckers

I bought an OG Xbox from the Blockbuster I worked at in 2006 for $5 with the express intent of playing only Steel Battalion on it.

That Xbox is still wrapped; I have yet to find Steel Battalion anywhere for a reasonable price.

I wonder if it's worth anything.

Edit: Hey I found a pretty sweet deal just now!
 
There are scripts for the E3 stuff? I thought they just went out on stage and wing it.

When I go out there I will probably improvise the whole ting.
HA. No.

They most definitely have to rehearse this stuff beforehand, with a teleprompter to help guide them. That's not to say some people don't improvise once in a while. But you can also tell who is capable of improvising naturally, and who... umm... isn't.
 
I didn't much enjoy the EA press conference content from the crew but I think that speaks more about the former than the later.

Anyone would struggle to entertain when watching 15-20 minutes of Battlefront 2 multiplayer and various annualised sport updates.

I'm much more hopeful about Microsoft today.
 
I could live with this.. as I am sure it would be completely different than Surge. Imagine the world would be much more interesting.

Not that Surge is bad.

The third area of the Surge is bad. I haven't picked it up since I got partway through there.
 
Does The Surge have any worldbuilding? That's what all these Souls clones just can't do apparently.

Better than any other Souls clone, but not nearly on par with From themselves. Long story short: Zuckerberg, transhumanism, and power armour.

Unless a sci-fi one is gonna go all end of the universe and go truly out there and weird (& be called "Entropy"), it's never gonna be as good as From's layered-reality gothic fantasy shit.

The fuck is CrossFire?
