Wonder what joys and excitement today brings.

Forget about that, instead look at this...

I know, I'm also excited to see the games.

I'm just saying, Microsoft reserve the right to change the policies any time they want, so this is just the beginning if we accept it, which we probably will do. :(

Don't you mean next gen Halo TV show? :p

There are plenty other threads where you can go make playful comments like your quote...E3 is all about the games and I know they will bring a lot of good games.
 
Alright guys, which game do you think Microsoft will save for the showstopper at the end?

Guess right and win some MSP, probably not a lot but it makes things fun. Give reasons for your answer.

I think it's unguessable this year. But if I had to guess, I would say Black Tusk's game.
 
The majority of these threads that have been popping up over the past few days/weeks/months are laugh-out loud funny, but also at the same time very depressing. I'm on the verge of asking for a permaban, I don't want to be considered a part of this community anymore (not just GAF, but "core gamers" in general). A man chooses and all that crap... I'm really becoming too old for this shit.

I'm actually afraid to post anything to do with Xbox One right now for fear of banning. It's like a bloodbath out there in the other threads.

Well I'm sure we will get various opinion pieces from many gaming websites telling us microsoft has taken all our rights away. The aftermath of all of this is just insane. Oh and xbox kills puppies and kittens while you sleep.
 
I think you are disproving your own point.
People don't like outages.
Now Xbox can have outages.
People start picturing Xbox outages.
Reaction is massive.
I never even thought of that. What happens when XBL is under maintenance, something screws up and it's out for longer than people thought? Or if it's under maintenance for 12 hours, but during that 12 hours is the only time console owner X has the ability to use the internet for whatever reason?

Ugh you sound very defensive. If you read my comment I said I was excited to see new games too. The halo TV show is a real thing, it was hilarious when they revealed it.

I'll keep posting here, thank you.

True, though there's always Halo, Rare's revival or maybe a third party shocka, Mirror's Edge 2 or Fallout 4 timed exclusive for example. Maybe even Insomaniac's exclusive.

I think Microsoft will have big surprises planned and the more they feel threatened the more they will be willing to sink money into exclusivity.

XBL down for 12 hours? That doesn't happen now, let alone with the stupid amount of servers planned.
 
More than a dozen new game announcements huh, more than I expected. Wonder if they mean First Party or Third Party games are included. I would assume that's including third party games.

Also, I see Rare opening up the conference with a platformer.
 
12+ at the conference, 1 either side, some at gamescom and TGS. They have a crap tonne to show!

Don't forget 360 announcements. That's actually something I'm pretty hyped for, hoping they've got some real treats lined up for the 360 and it's not something like League of Legends or something else that's equally boring.

Mirror's Edge 2.

Nah, seriously? I'm not sure, a new Battletoads would be pretty epic all things considered. Not as epic as say, a NEW JET FORCE GEMINI, you bastards, but erm, yeah, I've made my peace with not seeing a sequel any time.

Dyno might be right, could be Black Tusk's new game or perhaps an Avalanche exclusive, if they are indeed working on one.

Well, I kind of want to retire my 360 should I get a X1, so I don't mind too much. I want it to hit 100 mill, it deserves that milestone. (and lol could help with that)
 
This thread lacks a poster like gopherD who hints at amazing things to come. Are MS employees restricted to hint or are they just not as excited about their work? Have Stinkles made any comments in this thread?

What a stupid thing to say, yes I'm sure all MS employees working on games are downright miserable and wish they were at Sony.

Yes I suppose there will be big titles for the end of the year on 360. Every year before E3 everybody is complaining that MS has released his best titles for the current year, and then they unveil a few big titles coming in the following months, like Forza Horizon last year.
There was still a chance that this year they would focus on X1 instead, but the rumors in general seem to point that they'll support the 360 for some time still.
 
For those of you not venturing outside this thread. I'm seeing a hell of a lot of threads getting locked instantly.

Mods must be busy today.

I can only imagine what the aftermath of the MS conference is going to be in regards to threads.
 
No leaks is for the best, should make for maximum impact in three days.

That said, crazybuttocks has hinted he will leak something before the presser.
 
Guys Is this the first E3 where Microsoft presents games for two platforms (X1 and 360)? I don't remember e3 2005 that well, but I believe it was entirely X360 right

hopefully better because it will be all about the games.

I hope so, or i'm sticking with the pc and wiiu.

Don:"Will still support japanese,here is the prove"
And they show Lost Odyssey 2

I don't expect them to spend long on 360. Maybe just announce the $99 mini, a montage of games coming soon and that's it. They announced Fable Anniversary this week so it wouldn't take up time.

Spike says there will be 12+ Xbox One games announced at the keynote and it's only 90 minutes so not much time.

Do you mean the last thing they show, or the last actual game footage shown? My guess is the end the show with a Halo logo with a 5 in the background and the Chief saying something cryptic to Cortana. I have no idea what the last actual game footage they will show will be though.



I cant believe they are going to show 12 new games, this is going to be so amazing. I really cant wait to see what nextgen Crackdown looks like.

Sounds like it could be just "game" for 360, possibly TitanFall.

They are dropping a few titles for it in the before and particularly the after-show though.
 
It was a loaded question, you implied that they were either forbidden from talking or they didn't want to because their games weren't good.

Let me rephrase it then. Why aren't there any insiders like gopherD who are willing to join the community to try to hype their machine from MS? It doesn't take much to get us excited. Just a few posts here and there to get us speculating would be appreciated.

I would shit myself.

It's coming. Believe.

Tears if they do, I'm a big Cortana fan.

As they should be. Its E3 mang!!1!!!!1!!
 
No way Halo 5 is going to show up. Way too soon for the game, and they are still trying to fix matchmaking for Halo 4. They should wait til 2015 to launch Halo 5, in the meantime give us Halo Wars 2.

Unless I am mistaken I believe they have done a teaser at E3 the year before release for all the Halo games and then a huge blowout at E3 during the release year. I gotta imagine Halo 5 is their big fall 2014 game, so they will tease it this year in some way and ending the show with it makes sense to me. I dont think MS has anything bigger to get fans excited for the XB1 in terms of exclusives. Maybe Fallout 4 if the rumor is true, but I am not sure how big Fallout really is.

I guess that makes sense. Its just Halo 4 left a bad taste in a lot of fans' mouths, so I'm hoping they take their time with it and wait til the time is right to reveal it. They better hope they have something more than Halo to excite fans, new IPs should help with that.

I hope not.

If there's something MS needs to avoid doing this E3 is relying or hinting at Halo 5.

Save that for next year when I imagine we'll be the first time we'll see anything solid from that game.

I want something no one expects.

He did? Ahahaha. Who is this guy hooked into to know so much on both sides.

Really to know anything about yield stuff would have to come directly from someone very high within MS or the supply chain, but since most all his rumors are based on game side stuff he would have to know someone inside.
