>Phil Spencer opens with Project Scorpio, giving an in-depth look at what it can do and how it differs from the Xbox One. Additionally, the price will be shown early in the show, likely being at least $500.
>Montage clip showing existing games that will get the Scorpio treatment.
>Gameplay footage of Crackdown 3 to start the show off. This game will likely be Microsoft's flagship game for 2017.
>Bethesda will show off Fallout 4 running on Scorpio, with a surprise of a timed exclusive Fallout 4 VR/Mixed Reality version.
>Microsoft will talk about VR and/or Mixed Reality on Project Scorpio and Windows 10 for 10-20 minutes. Will probably show some new 3rd party VR headsets with a teaser montage showing off VR games.
>Trailers for multiplat games, such as Assassin's Creed, whatever yearly Tom Clancy shooter game Ubisoft usually shows off, the typical EA sports games and other titles, etc.
>Mike Ybarra will spend 10 minutes going over the new UI changes and features in the next software update for Redstone 2.
>10+ minutes dedicated to Minecraft.
>Indie game montage which will be kicked off by Cuphead.
>Rare will grace the stage with Sea of Thieves with a release date likely coming out next year with a public and private beta later this year.
>Yearly Forza.
>State of Decay 2.
>343 will come on the stage, do some shitty PR tirade of how "successful" and "proud" they are of Halo 5 and Haah Waw 2. They will likely show off an update for Halo 5 which will probably be the final update OR a new DLC for Halo Wars 2.
>Show ends off with a new, unannounced AAA IP.

>>377222485
People have every right to underestimate Microsoft, but I believe that they'll pleasantly surprise people this year. The last two years were duds, but I'm willing to give them another chance, because god knows the PC gaming show will fall flat on its face.

If not, there's always Sony.

Game journalists always side with NeoGAF, and NeoFags will always gladfully choke on Sony's dick, so by default Sony will win.

>>377222893
I want to pet that rabbit!

>>377222893
But this shit's retarded.

Gamespot does a PC spec comparison for PS4pro and Scorpio, makes a slightly more powerful ps4 pro and talks it up like it's all good, then makes a slightly less powerful scorpio and says it's shit despite scorpio being more powerful than the pro. They even priced Windows 10 into the scorpio one and not the PS4pro version.

I get general people getting involved in console war bullshit but the fact that game journalists do it is kind of retarded.

>>377222893
>boogeyman posting

E3 is a month away. Sony hasn't won anything. Last year the conscience probably was in Sony's favor given how good the presentation was. They could flop this year.

>>377221971
>What the fuck are they even going to show this year?
I don't know fuckface, how about you wait for the conference? There's no way for us to know until someone leaks it 2 days before E3

>Cup head again
>Sea of thieves again possibly a beta or something
>Crackdown again possibly a beta
>Phantom Dust free to play reannounced
>State of decay 2
>3rd party shit no one cares about

Did i miss something? I remember reading some interview where MS claimed to ditch vr for now or am i mistaken?

Can't say about these three. But i honestly wouldn't care after the shit that was yookas laylee

I definetly don't care about this

Care even less about this
>Perfect Dark revival
Could be interesting. Id have to see the execution.
>Sunset Overdrive 2
Will not happen. Quote me on this.
>Halo 6
They already said they weren't going to show anything Halo 6 this year.

>>377223932
in other words you are right for some of these. Can't say for sure about the first three can we?

If that's true it's fucking suicide for Microsoft. Everyone is just going to buy a Playstation or a Switch.

I don't care how much 343 will say how much they "learned from fan feedback", mark my words that the game will be shit.

Halo is a dead franchise and 343 killed it and then kept beating its rotting carcass. The story is in such a shitty position that the only way to fix it is to start all over. Also, Halo 5's multiplayer isn't even in the top 15 most played games on Xbox Live, whereas Halo 3 kept the number 1 most played Xbox game until Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 came out. Even then, it was still in the top 5 years after its release until Halo Reach came out.

>>377224443
Phil Spencer said on Podcast Unlocked that the Xbox One S is the flagship, and the Scorpio is for the minority hardcore gamers.

>>377224443
It is going to be 499 maximum. A ton of people are saying it will be like 699 etc. which is fucking retarded.

>>377224231

Sonyfags have been moving the goalposts steadily for whatever platform they shitpost about

XB1? lol lower resolution no one cares
Scorpio? Nogames. No one cares about resolution. PS4 has exclusives
PC? Exclusives are all Indie shovelware and early access. Multiplats don't count.
Switch? Nintendo kiddy rehash shit. lol no 3rd party support. Multiplats count now.

Same old shit every year.

>Scorpio runs W-10 native.

How could Sony compete?

>>377225257
Where's the games? As impressive as that sounds, Microsoft isn't getting a dime from me until they put out more exclusives.

>>377225257
PS5 is coming out in 2018 who cares.

>>377225559
But will it run Windows 10? Microsoft would never allow that.

>>377224917
>which is fucking retarded.
Are you too young to have witnessed all the consoles that claimed to be infinitely more powerful than others in the market and cost insanely high prices?

>Sony commits financial sudoku again by killing the only product keeping the rest of their tech and media operations alive to push out a new model under pressure of competition.

>>377223932
Was reading amidst growing confusion until I read the last line, well done

>>377225790
M8 who gives a shit about windows 10 on a console? My shitty fucking Chinese tablet runs windows 10. People who want a PC will buy a PC and not some shitty locked down Scorpio. I want fucking games god dammit!

>>377225790
why not. they'd have to pay microsoft for licensing. and it would be one step closer for games beings exclusively developed on Windows 10. Scorpio scaring a PS5 out of Sony is literally Microsoft's wet dream if they get developers to jump on W10/DX12 developing.

>>377222485
Other than the VR part, I can one hundred percent agree with this.

Microsoft has given it's console division the shaft. It's sad, really.

>>377225912
I have seen the specs. It is only approx 50% better GPU power slightly better CPU and 50% more ram than the PS4Pro which came out 1 year before the scorpio launch window.

There is 0% chance that PS4Pro could launch at 399 and the scorpio would launch much more expensive a full year after when the upgrade is that low.

>>377221971
>$599
Drop it down by $100

When did it start? Who the fuck thought Halo 5 plot was acceptable?

They must've literally spent more on writing of Hunt the Truth -PR campaign.

>>377221971
OP, is this your first E3? You know that event exists so they can reveal games no one knows about, right?

Spencer already confirmed they have several AAA """"exclusives"""" that they're going to show. Probably bought some studios to develop for them.

>>377227349
>>377227916
the leaked scorpio price from the spanish website is $400, assuming that this is legit. a price based on a similar PC build would put the price at $500 based on math and the PS4pro price.
A smart move from Microsoft would be $400, they'd take a small hit on the sales but overall they'd still make plenty of cash.

Another price I've heard is $450

>>377228293
The extra GDDR5 ram is actually pretty expensive not to mention the GPU is clocked at insanely high speeds so the cooling system they have built needs some production finesse that is quite costly.
I don't think it will be $399 but i mean shit. It could be.
I hope we aren't looking at another RROD situation. I fear for the look of the console however.

>>377228648
DigitalFoundry seemed impressed with the look and Microsoft has always been on the side of caution with heat since the RROD. you could even say that the xbox one s was a practice run for the internal power supply.

>>377221971
How probably will be that they show KI Season 4?

I kind of wouldn't mind that.

>>377225559
>Sony
>Killing the PS4 so soon and starting a new no games cycle
lol

>>377228092
I wish Microsoft would actually get their ARG writers to work on Halo. ILB, IRIS, and HTT were all so much better than the in-game stories they built up to.

do consolefriends really think games will be playable at 4k for $500 or less?

>>377222485

Probably close. EA doesn't show it's sports games there anymore though. I'd imagine they will have a demo of Cyberpunk 2077 though.

Also Cuphead will be available two weeks after the show and the "Available after the show" game will likely be PUBG in Early Access (Bluehole said they already have console dev kits and had a version running on both consoles)

>>377228118

One dev announced a partnership (Studio GoBo. Mostly former Blackrock games devs who did Split/Second and some of Disney Infinty) so there might be more independent studios making games for them that haven't been announced. Places like Zoe Mode, Ready At Dawn and Harmonix could be good bets. Maybe Obsidian? Could see some weird partnerships like how they worked with Sega to get Creative Assembly on Halo Wars 2. I could see them working a deal with Nexon for Big Huge Games to make Rise Of Nations 2 (Though that would be a PC only title).

>>377229503
so what they're supposed to be Microsoft's bitch in the mean time. absorutery not.

>>377230219
They were for most the entirety of last gen, what makes it any different now?

>>377230219
And you think Sony can undercut them this time?

>>377223932
Yup and this is why Microsoft's conference and Nintendo's Spotlight will suck, they're not bringing their A games.

>>377230605
PS5 comes out with PSnow so you can pay to play PS4 games. it's less than the price of a cup of coffee a month, what are you poor?
>>377230528
PS3 was second fiddle for most of the gen but at the end they were on top and carried it over to PS4. Kings reign supreme and never give up their throne without a fight.

>>377228293
>$450
Chances are I know it won't be $400 but I do hope it's this price.

Honestly I'm really excited for Crackdown 3. If it pans out it could be a really neat game. I haven't been able to scratch the destructible environment itch since Red Faction: Guerrilla.

Also they are probably going to show PUBG's early access since it'll be on the Xbox One first. Given it's popularity on PC they'll surely capitalize on getting it first on console.

Other than that...no clue. Multiplats and VR.

>>377232289

At E3 Microsoft will announce Lost Odyssey 2, Ninja Gaiden 4, Tales of Vesperia remastered, and a new Jet Set Radio game/JSRF remastered all exclusive to Scorpio.

>>377234830
*also on pc

>>377235508
*on Windows 10
which you probably don't have because muh spyware.

>>377235754
i also dont have an xbox because its shit

>>377221971
They will show the Scorpio and a shitload of amazing looking trailers for exclusive games.

Then they cancel all the games before the next E3 and show new trailers for other games. Scorpio then becomes a console that only shows trailers for games that don't exist.

>>377229057
Meh they proved a heavily optimized game like Forza ran great at 4k and nothing else. I am more interested in the games with something actually going on.

>>377223261
>I get general people getting involved in console war bullshit but the fact that game journalists do it is kind of retarded.
Game journos are being PAID to take sides. The common man who shills for free is the retarded one.

Ori and the Will of the Wisp and State of Decay 2 alone will be GOTY material. Everything else is a plus.

>>377235842
so you won't be playing any Microsoft exclusives but you'll still say they're not exclusive.

>>377236534
well i was talking about how DigitalFoundry said they saw the final look and said we'd be happy about how small it was.

The 150 version will come with the Kinect functionality of the one.

They're going to create their, qw set top box

>>377230219
Hahaha, what? Sony didn't give a fuck the Xbox was more powerful than the PS2 while counting all the millions of units sold and all its developers jumping ship to it.

They won't care about Scorpio being more powerful than the PS4 while their thing has inexplicably sold 60 million units as of now.
