Let's get this topic up. What will they show?
TV or no TV? Slim console, XB1 upgrade or both?Will Conker reveal himself after last year's incident?
-
If
, the slim is most likely coming at 299USD and the name Xbox One S. That seems likely considering the following screenshot, which supposedly leaked yesterday:
Personally, I am hoping to see Scorpio revealed and shown as bundle with Oculus coming later this year or in 2017. In terms of games, a new Red Dead would be massive!!!
BTW @Hoken, you beat me to this thread by mere minutes ;) I was just about to post the Microsoft E3 thread and then I saw this thread pop up. Had the whole post written and everything :)

-The Xbox Slim announcement will foolishly be the last thing they announce as an "Oh, and one more thing" moment despite everyone already knowing about it.
-
I think Halo Wars 2 will make an appearance. Just recently Halo's YouTube channel has uploaded story recaps of original Halo Wars. One video in particular ended with a cliffhanger of sorts. Maybe the next Halo Wars will continue from that. I don't want to spoil anything of the story.
-
@SirMathays Halo Wars 2 open beta starts today actually. It will appear.
-
I don't even like Microsoft and all I'm hoping is that they give me hype again after yesterday.
-
@ObbyDent I don't have an Xbox and won't get one this year, but since they're pushing PC into it more and more it's a bigger and bigger deal to me.
-
@Hoken That's exactly why I think an Oculus partnership is coming up soon ;) If it's more or less a powerful PC, you might as well have VR that way

Xbox One S confirmed. Decent specs.
Is it wrong that I instantly thought the console design itself looked like the Wii for a split second?
-
@Smartzke Interesting to see that Xbox 360 used to be white and went to black. Xbox One used to be black and is going white. Looks sleeker. I might just get one :)
-
So far, not impressed. It's the usual Microsoft flowchart and political level spin doctoring.
And now they've basically convinced me there's no reason to own the console at all cause you can just play everything on PC.
EDIT- FFXV first look on it's non-native console when PS4 has had two demos.
Division DLC, yeah....you can have that first, people aren't rushing out the door for division content anymore.
BF1, same trailer, you get to play it 5 days ahead of early enlister edition buyers (Yeah way to screw over people who spent $80) and nothing else exclusive. Plus you need XBL AND EA Access.
XBL LFG- Don't most games have matchmaking already?
Indie game montage- games that are mostly already on steam, and are also going to PSN.
-
Will get that Xbox for that price probably, very reasonable.
-
@Hoken @ZyloWolfBane Yeah, I think Microsoft is realising that it's all about the entry price. If you want an easy entry into the gaming world, you shell out 299 USD. If you want a gaming PC, you will probably shell out at least twice that much.
With crossplay, this might become an advantage for Microsoft. Might ;)

NOOOOOOOOOO. Why did they mention FIFA??? Just why??

What's funnier is they make it a selling point for the XBL Arena, didn't EA themselves announce a new platform THEY were doing specifically for tournaments and events?
-
@ZyloWolfBane They might integrate somehow :)
BTW, what does everyone think of the 79.99+ USD custom controllers?
-
@marcel Cringe, that's what I think. They couldn't scam enough people into buying elites so they did this instead. Just gimme the plain black with textured grips and a decent price.
