I would like to see 5 new good looking titles from Microsoft at this show but I'm going to temper my expectations

SpaceRanger2027d ago

Temper them drastically, they leaked the lineup and it’s 3rd party stuff from E3 or updates on stuff they launched this year. No new project updates. Just talk on a new studio buyout.

sammarshall1022027d ago

Yeah I saw that, a part of me is still hoping it isn't true lol

Switch4One2026d ago

We are ignoring the Ninja Theory project that was leaked to be at XO18? I mean if we are going off of leaks it seems pretty odd to leave that out. And Battletoads first look.

indysurfn2026d ago

I thought the first thing the article would say is xbox 4 will NOT be there. But no mention of it! Hurray! That means Sony does not need to rush to make sure xbox does not have a lead next gen. PLEASE dont show xb4

Can't believe next xbox will be there fourth major console release (x1x was a big upgrade to x1).

Skull5212026d ago

I’d like to hear some next gen news or teasers. I got a feeling next Xbox is going to practically be a PC, with the increasing PC like architecture and Windows integration in Xbox One it’s only logical to assume the next Xbox will give you both the console experience as well as full PC game compatibility. Since Steam is not doing great, it could be a good move to bring the service to the next gen Xbox.

i assume its going to be more details of up coming games which is all we need. I assume we might get some more info on the xcloud

monkey6022026d ago

It's beyond stupid to write an article about an upcoming event and not tell us the date it takes place. This is terrible writting at its finest.

DiRtY2026d ago

I don't expect much.

PUBG Update.
Sea of Thieves Update.
Crackdown gameplay.
Maybe Obsidian Games joining them.
Metro Exodus
Ori And the Will of the Whisps Gameplay.

PhantomS422026d ago

I wouldn't be shocked to see something about Scarlet. You don't come out of the blue and announce something like this without a massive reveal up your sleeve. Sony did their first PSX in 2014 for a celebration of PlayStation and the twentieth anniversary of PlayStation. I doubt full details too but maybe an official name and a general "holiday 2019" release window with more details at E3. This probably ending the show again after they spend the show going over what is essentially the swan songs of Xbox One: Gears 5, Crackdown, Ori.

mark_parch2026d ago

This seems more like what we actually see rather than over the top predictions by others like gears of war 4 gameplay, fable 4, new ip and banjo threeie.

Not sure why the article states no release date for ashen, as far as I was aware it's still scheduled for this year.

I will be extremely happy if we get age of empires and gears tactics on xbox, ashen release date for December, battletoads gameplay, at least a tease of what ninja theory are working on and the announcement of one or more studios.

mark_parch2026d ago

@skycaptain5

That's really disappointing I was super hyped about playing ashen this year. December seemed perfect for gamepass as well with horizon 4 releasing last month and crackdown 3 in feb, dec deemed perfect for ashen. but if it's not ready then I would prefer they wait

Halo Infinite’s Survive the Undead mode is a COD Zombies love letter

Halo Infinite’s brand-new Survive the Undead mode is a masterwork of Forge creativity, and Call of Duty Zombies fans need to play it.

Desperate Xbox players turn to Halo Forge for their Helldivers 2 fix

PS5-exclusive Helldivers 2 is so popular that Xbox players want a taste of democracy, and now Halo Forge will be the battleground for a Helldivers 2 remake.

XiNatsuDragnel92d ago

That's wild but hey if forge satisfies than that's good

GamerRN91d ago

Also.... Desperate Xbox players? I mean Helldivers2 looks ok, but I wouldn't call it anything to get desperate over..

God of War and the other exclusive are more worth desperation. I don't think I'm gonna even try Helldivers2, in still trying to beat Forbidden West, and I still of Ghosts, Ragnarok and TLOU2 to play

Old McGroin91d ago

Helldivers 2 is a phenomenally good game. You should definitely check it out if you get the chance. Looks like the devs have the server capacity issue pretty much sewn up now so it's a good time to jump in.

WolfSeed91d ago

You clearly haven't tried it. It's pure crack.

MrNinosan91d ago

I thought exactly like you, until I tried Helldivers 2... and then I was hooked.
The only thing that will stop me from playing it going forward is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth next week.

1Victor91d ago

@gamer: “Also.... Desperate Xbox players? I mean Helldivers2 looks ok”

Lest be honest for a minute even Phil want it on Xbox and if it wasn’t desperation the forge player wouldn’t be trying to copy it 🤷🏿

Barlos91d ago

Nobody is desperate over a game. Its pure clickbait.

TwoPicklesGood91d ago

I enjoy Helldivers 2 but it isn’t phenomenal or anything, its just a good game. Sure us ps5 players don’t have many multiplayer games so maybe that skews perspective. What we should be worrying about Is all the bugs and issues that STILL plague the game. It shouldn’t have been released in this state.

Helldivers 2 graphically makes halo on series x look 2 gen behind.

Rdeal90d ago

Are you saying Helldivers 2 graphics are better than Halo's? if so you need glasses , graphics has to be the worst part of Helldivers 2, I have seen better on the PS4

Hypertension14090d ago (Edited 90d ago )

@Rdeal

It's not the best looking game around
but the graphics definitely look better than halo infinite. The destruction on display while also maintaining a steady performance is also very impressive.

I've also seen better on PS4, but I say the same for almost every Xbox Series X game this generation.

Kiryu199291d ago

Why desperate Xbox fans? Why are we so split as a gaming community? So gamers wanting to play awesome games are not labeled desperate?

DarXyde90d ago

I don't think it's really unusual.

LittleBigPlanet allowed for that.

Just get a PS5 and be done with it. Four Xbox exclusives are making their way over with more to follow down the road.

343_Guilty_Spark91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

When is Halo Infinite coming?

Hellblade 2 coming?

Jin_Sakai91d ago

Soon enough.

Phil Spencer: “The biggest games will be more than just one platform“

VincentVanBro91d ago

Neither of those are worth an entire console so who cares?

DazaMc91d ago

Anytime now, who knows.

MrNinosan91d ago

Probably within a year, but don't worry. They will still be available on the box of your choice, except if Switch is your choice.

Or just play it on your PC...

InUrFoxHole90d ago

Why get either console? All are coming to pc anyway

Shane Kim90d ago

If it wasn't for the initial cost, then I would never get a console.

InUrFoxHole90d ago

Honestly pc is great but I love the convenience of a console

OptimusDK90d ago

You couldn’t help yourself right Jin

Jin_Sakai90d ago

I just couldn’t help but tell the reality of the situation.

goldwyncq90d ago

Or just get a PC because all Xbox and PS games are coming to it sooner or later. Nintendo's the only company practicing true exclusivity nowadays.

Tedakin90d ago

Sony's present said first party games will be on pc and other platforms too. So what? And before you say he just meant "pc and playstation" that was debunked. Day 1 pc is definitely coming from Sony, ending your precious exclusives.

Neonridr92d ago

I remember the good old days of Halo 3 and the Forge. Some wild game games came from it.

RaidenBlack92d ago

Just let Coalition develop or at least assist in developing the next Halo ... 343 alone is not enough

Jin_Sakai91d ago

They already assisted with development.

“Gears of War studio The Coalition helped out with Halo Infinite”

https://www.vg247.com/gears...

RaidenBlack91d ago

Then lead the next Halo development with 343 assisting instead ... as well as leverage some of the other new acquired studios if possible

neomahi90d ago

That would be smart, but makes too much sense. BUT, The Coalition is pretty much dead, without Rod Ferguson, there's nothing there. That was the point of that team was that he was heading it up but even Rod Ferguson turned down being the boss and head of his own studio making Microsoft money to go to Blizzard, and isn't it ironic, look where's he's at now. Cliff Blezinski offered to go back to work on Gears and Xbox (one of their biggest IPs) shut him down and told him no. Gears put Xbox on the map, and they told him no. Sony wouldn't tell David Jaffe no if he asked to return to God of War or Twisted Metal, Jaffe is just to lazy, but Xbox shut down Blezinski, completely shocked me.

So, you're right, kinda, but that blood isn't there anymore, the soul of that team is gone so I don't think you'd get the quality you think that you would

Jin_Sakai90d ago

“Then lead the next Halo development with 343 assisting instead ... as well as leverage some of the other new acquired studios if possible“

Certain Affinity would be good but who knows what’s happening there. And I’d suggest keeping CoD studios away from the franchise unless you want Halo of Duty.

Halo Infinite forge is a million times better. maps don't even look like forge made but look like actual dev created maps now

Neonridr91d ago

oh I bet, I just have fond memories of all the different things people came up with. I can only imagine what it's like now.

PhillyDonJawn91d ago

Hell yeah I remember the forge map toilet 😂 good times. Poo and paper everywhere

Blad3runner0092d ago

Don't get this mentality. Nothing is stopping these people from buying a PS5

I don't get fanboyism and refusing to purchase a competitors console.

purple10192d ago

I didn't used to get it, when is was Sega vs Nintendo, but now companies charging for online play, I dont wan to pay 2 separate subs, so you make a choice. also if you were to say invest in extra controllers for mates or whatever, I suppose it all adds up

anast91d ago

So, PS5 is the choice, right?

PhillyDonJawn91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

You're thinking too much into it. Forge creators make anything and everything. This is nothing new. Call of duty and other games have been made in halo forge as well. I was just playing Nuketown and hot potato 2 weeks ago lol (hot potato fun asf btw)

PaleMoonDeath91d ago

Not everyone can afford it mate, some have kids, families etc to support. Very close minded statement, adults don't necessarily care which machine, but money's tight nowadays, bring them Helldivers so we can get the damn Halo & Gears armour on PS5 lol

EvertonFC91d ago

I wanna see helgeist, scorpions, crimera, flying sting rays even some knack enemies etc

PaleMoonDeath91d ago

@Everton, DUDE! KILLZONE 2 HELGHAST SKINS! COULD YOU IMAGINE

Charlieboy33391d ago

They hate Playstation to the point of insanity....yet want a Playstation game on Xbox so bad. These people don't even make sense in their OWN minds...

91d ago
EvertonFC90d ago (Edited 90d ago )

Agreed fella, same can be said for the playstation lot too though lol. We would all be over a gears collection, halo collection, Forza and ori

DivineHand12591d ago

I hope all the persons who agreed with you have an Xbox. Being a multi-console owner is the best thing for a gamer. When Palworld came out I could boot up the Xbox and play it there. I also just started playing Helldivers 2 yesterday and I am having a great time with it.

The gunplay is good so persons who are on the fence for this reason, don't be. The gunplay in this can go up against Halo, Destiny, The Division 2 etc. The gameplay loop is also good with a reasonable progression system. It doesn't have any RPG mechanics so don't expect to see numbers popping up when you shoot an enemy. Progression in this game allows you to unlock cosmetics, weapons and air drops from orbit to aid you on your mission.

HA! All the while Xbox games are popping up in PS stores. To be honest, on day exclusivity will probably be gone and each will just provide a streaming service bundle, but why not have fun while we can.

crazyCoconuts91d ago

And to get you to pick one streaming service over another they would have....

anast91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

You do know how to ask direct questions, right? This is a serious question.

They would have different app features, different UI's, timed exclusivity, and different video game series (live action and animation). Also the streaming services would be tied to mobile phones of choice (Sony vs MS; maybe even Nintendo will get in on this, phone thing.) which have their own reasons for purchasing.

Of course this is in the distant future. They don't call me the Oracle for no reason.

crazyCoconuts91d ago

Exclusives... The answer was exclusives.
But, you being the Oracle you already knew that, didn't you?

anast91d ago

"one day exclusivity will probably be gone"

Yes. I am the Oracle. When this happens you can say I am right.
