I'm not gonna spoil anything but the numbers I'm hearing are two hours and about thirty games, and at least a handful of those games are games we haven't heard of before. So it's like.. okay, that's a good place to start. If all those games hit really hard, I can easily give the conference an 8 and if they nail the execution, we'll get to that 9 out of 10

Alternate Title: "Featuring 30 Games - A handful that will never release"

 

[SEGAvangelist]

It'll be the only major E3-ish show, so I think it kind of has to be decent. Geoff already let us know his won't be any good.

 

[xHunter]

Hope they show Kojimas game.

 

[Banjo64]

I’ve seen this before but I’ll reserve judgement. The last time I recall them touting a number like this the games were either a huge disappointment (Forza and Redfall) or were only 70 rated games for Game Pass.

 

[twilo99]

Xbox no games tho and publishers don’t want to make games for it

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

He wont spoil anything but certain employees in the backend sure will

 

[saintjules]

There are 3 other 3rd party games among the list that have codenames. Might be in the 'never heard before' category. My guy doesn't know what they are, but I'm sure Grubb does.

Also mentioned we'll see gameplay to MGS Snake Eater here.

Everything Xbox just has this Weekend at Bernie’s quality to it these days, you know?

 

[IDKFA]

Looking forward to this one.

Really excited to see the new Doom game and hopefully confirmation of that Fallout 3 remaster.

2 hours? Jeez, most boring conference ever incoming (hope to be wrong)

Who has hurt you so much, James? You used to be less salty just a year ago.

 

[Bring Back Scalebound]

Pleeeeeeeeeeeease

 

[Kurotri]

So if they don't hit hard (looking at their track record..uhh.) and they fail the execution it's a 7 at best? My expectations are tempered.

New term this year i think:

"Console launch exclusive"*

*Also coming to Playstation after x months

 

[feynoob]

Just give me all COD games on gamepass. That is all I am asking MS.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Starfield did indeed look excellent and GOTY worthy until reality hit when the game launched

Smoke and mirrors.

Will have a hefty dose of skepticism on whatever gets hyped based on last year

 

[Kenneth Haight]

No need for this slide after every reveal now

 

[ReBurn]

I like the thought of 30 games. I double Microsoft's ability to deliver 30 games.

 

[fudgybrownie]

If the release window is not within 6 months don't bother showing them.

 

[Gudji]

1 hour of dragon age inquis... dreadwolf, 30 minutes of perfect dark, 15 minutes of Hellblade 2 DLC and another 15 minutes of CoD. The rest is for the world premiere guy.

 

[intbal]

Don't care.
Gimme more BC or shut up.

 

[clarky]

Why? it looked like shit and rightfully got canned.

Yep, that Insider Gaming article pretty much says the same. Even though there have been multiple 'investigations' on the matter, nothing really has been done to stop it.

Expecting stuff to start leaking from this showcase before the weekend.

Whatever the case, though, these investigations have seemingly done nothing to stop it from happening again.

How YouTube's New Gaming Leak Culture Actually Works

A new report has claimed that one person was responsible for leaking Nintendo announcements in 2018, but that is just the beginning.

I don't think it's all 30 first party projects. There's gonna be lots of third party games and some already released ones that are announced for game pass which probably count in that 30. (expecting Infinite Wealth to be one of them)

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Why is Grubb not going to spoil things when that’s literally all he tries to do ?

15 mins of Hellblade 2 dlc would double the length of the game though..........

Ill see myself out.

awesome and all but give me some fucking games. don't show me whats 2+ years out

I figured as much. I'm mostly whining about the hit and miss timing of first party releases. I want to see that day 1 on Gamepass counter go up.

Dont these things usually consist of only stuff thats day one gamepass?

 

[Markio128]

I haven’t got two hours in me to be honest, but I’ll look forward to catching up with some of the more interesting reveals after the show.

 

[FeralEcho]

You can say what you want about Xbox but at least in one instance they're doing right by gaming fans.They are keeping the E3 spirit somewhat alive...unlike Playstation and Geoff's summer of garbage show.

 

[adamsapple]

Not for all third party stuff, I remember they did a chunk of "all games we show now are on game pass day 1" a few years back, wonder if they'll do something similar

Phil Spencer: "Hi, welcome to two hours of Everwild concept videos we decided not to use"

 

[Caio]

I hope to see Kojima's Game, STATE OF DECAY 3, Fable and new interesting games. Am I asking for too much ? I'm hyped.

Follow up on this.

He's saying that another Dragon Age thing, besides Dreadwolf, will be there.

Interesting.

scratch that, people are saying this is just going to be the new title for Dreadwolf and how that isn't the games final shipping name.

I think there will be five games that we haven't heard of before and that's across all the verticals (meaning across Xbox-Bethesda-Activision). What those are? I don't know. I think we'll see some familiar faces on stage.. some... popular voice actors I'll say. You'll at least see their names. Dragon Age, I was teasing this one. I joke Dragon Age Dreadwolf won't be there and will be there. Dragon Age: Dreadwolf probably WON'T be there, Dragon Age WILL be there. If that makes sense.

Pre-Alpha:

"Pre-Alpha is a standard term to denote a number of interim milestones between prototyping and alpha, each of which includes new functionality and/or game content. Pre-alphas often mandate incremented improvements on a number of parallel areas in a project, but rarely expect any one of those areas to be complete. The exact content of each pre-alpha is often an ongoing discussion between producers on the team and those at the publisher.

Pre-alphas are usually followed by alpha, beta, release candidate and gold master milestones."
