Some would look at those realities and realize that it's probably a sign that completing the game just wasn't feasible. The most recent presentations had been rough in the game design sense. To borrow a phrase I came across the other day, game development isn't just a progress bar you move by adding money.

Yes the reboot does support high definition, you are correct as well.

All these Halo 6 questions. Is Halo relevant again?
But i expect a Halo 6 announcement tho. CGI trailer. Next year more and release.
I'll be pretty disappointed if we see a load of CGI from MS at E3, they should put Scorpio to work and show off every game running on that hardware.
Help me find my eyes, they rolled out of my head.

It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
"Each particle of sand would have taken a whole Pro to render. We are running this on Scorpio in REAL TIME, bitches."
A bad one.
Uncompressed sand.
Its the only way i cope with the thought of the IP being ripped from its grave to become a Hearthstone clone

Isn't it just as foolish assume they'll announce absolutely nothing for 2017 release at E3? If anything, it's more foolish - as their most recent E3 appearance suggests a shorter period between announcement and release for mid-tier titles like Dead Rising 4.
I'm not going to pretend Microsoft has a dozen AAA mind blowing titles sitting in the chamber, but you also can't assume the opposite. It's fair to expect a repeat of their most recent performance - which would suggest this upcoming holiday has 1-2 surprises yet to be made public.

Last E3 was poor in my opinion, when you consider the announcements of new games they did make it was a pretty small amount to say the least and what did concern me more than that was Phil Spencer pre hyping the conference as one as important as the launch of the Xbox 360. If that's the standard he sees then I don't have much confidence in the fella.
I'm talking Campaign, ofc.
A Halo 6 is going to be the third entry in the Halo 4 saga and I doubt they've learnt their lesson.

I think the lack of Scalebound has made me realise I'm not as big of a MS fanboy as I thought.
I loved Crackdown 1 but I'm weary about the 3rd.
Hahaha!

E3 will be SCORPIO SCORPIO SCORPIO here is my hopes
1) Complete introduction to scorpio, specs and capabilities and announcing that all Microsoft First party games past/present will be Scorpio enabled on Day 1
2) Halo 5 Campaign DLC which will either revolve around Blue Teams history together or a lead up to Halo 6. The DLC will take full advantage of Scorpios capabilities as will all of Halo 5.
3) Major push of Sea of Thieves because it deserves it and i really believe is flying under too many radars as people already have it labeled as "The new no mans sky"
4) Crackdown 3 Shown off using Scorpio
5) State of Decay 2 Shown off using Scorpio
6) Return of Battletoads, because we all know its coming
7) Return of Banjo or Conker using actual gameplay
8) As for this spot Microsoft needs to end the event with something that is going to blow the crowd and gaming public away. I dont even know what they could do maybe a Perfect Dark return as well using Scorpio?

Thanks Shil Pencer
Yet again -- if the standard is Dead Rising 4... Nope, not going to get preemptively excited with the proverbial egg still in the ass of the chicken.

State of Decay 2 - Cancelation delayed until 2018
Cuphead - Delayed until 2018
Below - Delayed until 2018
Ashen -2017 Release
Phantom Dust HD - Canceled
Fable Fortune Canceled
Voodoo Vince - Phil Spencer loves and made it so it comes out in 2017

Shitty slate of games from ms this year. No faith in crackdown 3. Wouldn't be surprised if it got delayed.

What they meant for Azure enhanced graphics and physics was just a hardware upgrade enhancement.
Kinda weird they are going to showcase it like it was Crysis
Just to be clear, that poster isn't reporting something official. It's an educated guess.
Also, the Azure stuff (which we saw in a gameplay demonstration a while back) was about physics and destruction, not the visuals. If they do show Crackdown 3 on Scorpio, it wouldn't stop if from being better IQ w/ the networked physics system.
Fingers crossed, I really liked Crackdown 1
and 2
Halo Wars 2 just went gold and releases next month.
Crackdown has already been delayed. Won't happen again or it'll be cancelled.
State of Decay 2 will be a 2017 release
Cuphead and Below are both coming this year. Both have been delayed and expanded on.
Phantom Dust HD will be an E3 release.
Fable Fortune isn't or wasn't a Microsoft project.
Voodoo Vince isn't a Microsoft project either, it's an ID@Xbox game.

Nah it's great GiF but joke's starting to become stale.
Just like every other mainline Halo.

Euh ok?
- Halo 5 released October 27, 2015.
- No Halo FPS released in October 27, 2016.
- No Halo FPS will release in 2017.
- That means we will probably get a FPS Halo in October-Nov, 2018.
Thats 3 years.

No? See you next year then I guess.
Are you ready for Microsoft Banjo?

yeah that guy is blowing is load by saying it's the highest profiled cancellation, outside of gaming forums no one really knew what it was, I consider high profiled to be a game anticipated by everyone ... silent hill is a good example like you said.
I really hope State of Decay 2 gets the AAA treatment.
If they could just add one unannounced AAA game this year I would be satisfied
what you mean "back" ?

Game quality has nothing to do with this (though IMO, DR4 is fine for what it is). Just proving that Microsoft is more likely to announce 2017 releases at E3 than they are nor to.

Cool. Those games are boring.
Sea of Thieves, Halo Wars 2 and Crackdown 3 are already not those games. So I don't take this to mean there'll be more games.
Phantom Dust still exists?

Poncho Chief was only in the teaser. I want them to bring back the Poncho Chief character model for H6.
I meant it's not interesting because it's always been that cycle.

Yeah, Phantom Dust HD should release this year.
It was a copy/paste of the first game and replaced the cool agents with master Chiefs.
