News on Halo, "New, Announced, Unannounced and Unexpected" Xbox One Games Coming at E3 -Phil Spencer

Microsoft Games Studio head honcho Phil Spencer shared today a few more information on what you can expect from Microsoft at E3.

[lonewolfjedi]

hopefully ms wont strong arm multiplat devs to only show games on xbox this year's e3

[Nero1314]

I'm no fanboy but that's all sony did last e3 :

Edit: well they both did but Sony did more

[SoapShoes]

Uh Sony had their fair share of exclusives too spread out through different events. They both did but don't act like Sony didn't bring anything to the table, that's just ridiculous.

[Rimeskeem]

Sony has a lot and i mean probably over a dozen games in the making to show at E3

[Prime157]

Wait, you mean you didn't like the call of duty, call of duty, call of duty, tv, tv ,tv, dog, call of duty, tv, sports, sports, sports, call of duty, .type of e3 last year?

(small print halo 5, quantum break, black tusk-that-isn't-original-i p and more as in both did similar things) e3 they had last year?

Seriously, fanboys, they showed the same amount of exclusives... only one showed the genetic third parties...

[UltimateMaster]

@SoapShoes.
He said different events.
They showed a lot of Vita exclusive at Gamescom.
A lot of the exclusives on PS4 was showcased at the PS4 reveal. The Order 1886 @E3. Uncharted 4 @PS4 launch.
So yeah, define "Multiple Events" people who disagree.

[Gozer]

"Strong arm", wtf are you talking about? Are you jealous or something? I bet the games being shown on Xbox has more to do with the fact that E3 is an American presentation and the Xbox is an American console, other than any kind of conspiracy theory you are asserting. Would be like me complaining that sony shows more games at TGS than MS.

@SoapShoes
No hes trolling MS.

[SoapShoes]

He just wants them to have a good E3, why do you have to put down people that want Microsoft to do well?

[Prime157]

Soap, they both showed a lot of first and third party exclusives, he was trolling and you bought in.

[Psygnosis333]

and Deep Down
Edit: wrong reply,sorry

[OpieWinston]

I'm sorry, did you watch Sonys E3 conference?
Destiny
Arkham Origins
Elder Scrolls Online
KH3
Etc...

At Microsofts E3 we saw MGSV. WHAT A STRONG ARM!

[SoapShoes]

They both did it. Nothing wrong with it so I don't see his point. lol

[GamingNerd013]

I know right people act like sony e3 wasn't good I mean hello besides the PS4 being 400$ wich alone pretty much made sony win E3 their were KH3,FFXV, for the fist time distany gameplay , then showing exclusives content only on PS4 and PS3 like AC4 Arkham origins watch dogs distany and much more in way sony e3 was more exciting and better with what they showed then MS.

[-Foxtrot]

I think a lot of people are forgetting Sony's PS4 reveal conference had games aswell...Microsoft's reveal didn't.

[avengers1978]

Since you brought up MGS V, it is going to be better on PS4

[TheRedButterfly]

@Foxtrot

*Dualshock 4 reveal

[CYCLEGAMER]

@SoapShoes AND @Foxtrot

You guys are delusional, Sony showed The Order Infamous, knack, and the rest was multiplates, social features, policy talk vita and ps3 stuff.

The xbox one showed NOTHING BUT GAMES, KI, DR3 Ryse, Forza, Halo, Quantum break, Fable, Sunset Overdrive, PvZ, D4, Kinect sports, Project Spark, Titanfall, etc... and maybe 2 multiplates, Metal gear and COD. Please watch it again if you forgot. MS KILLED Sony in the games department last year and Sony KILLED MS with it policies and price. THATS EXACTLY HOW E3 2013 WENT DOWN.

[dasbeer88]

That's what MS said last year, and the year before, and the year before before. What new and unannounced and unexpected crap are going to be announced in this E3 event?

[theWB27]

"What new and unannounced and unexpected crap are going to be announced in this E3 event?"

Games that either weren't in development or weren't ready to be shown last E3 and the year before, and the year before before...maybe?

[AngelicIceDiamond]

@dasbeer Its amazing how many people here at N4G really didn't pay attention to MS E3 last year.

Where do you think Ryse, Deadrising 3, Forza 5, Titanfall Plants VS Zombies, Killer Instinct came from?

Do I really need to link the full show to so you can watch?

[Biggest]

I know that Ryse and Deadrising came from the 360 a year or two earlier, but I suppose that since they switched them to Xbone we could pretend that they were new, unannounced games. Forza 5, Forza 6, Forza 7, etc. . . We know they are coming. Not much of a reveal is necessary.

[Abriael]

You do understand that often the "strong arming" goes both ways, and publishers actually offer to both MS and Sony in order to get exposure?

[UnHoly_One]

I want Phantom Dust!!!!!

And MECHASSAULT!!!

[True_Samurai]

Darn you sir you brought back my childhood memories :-'( mechassault, phantom dust, conker, damn I had a good childhood *fights back tears*

[UnHoly_One]

And you just made me feel old, because I was 26 playing that game. lol

[lifeisgamesok]

We pretty much know for sure Quantum Break, Halo, Sunset Overdrive, Fable Legends will be shown

Phantom Dust, Crackdown 3, Mechassault, and Lost Odyssey 2 would be so hard to beat

[UnHoly_One]

Yeah it's a good time to have an Xbox. :)

[shinrock]

OMMFG!!!!!!! I would pas out!

[Alan_Shore]

Both will show plentiful new ips and multiplats I hope.

[avengers1978]

My guess for MS at E3
Halo 5 though I doubt we will see gameplay
Sunset overdrive with game play
Quantum break with game play
Fable in some form
TitanFall even though it will have been out for awhile
Talk about features, the cloud, media features, games with gold coming to XB1
The new COD

They may take the approach of this being a "second" launch of the system, a place were they can say what the new policies are, cause they did reverse some of the less popular policies. If possible they may want to bring back that game sharing feature they had, from people I know that was one of the most exciting things from the XB1.

They might show a kinect centric game.

[n4rc]

One Dev was just saying ms has a bunch of cool new features in the pipeline but can't disclose what they are, obviously..

I'm guessing halo and sunset overdrive along with quantum break as well.. Plus a few teasers of unannounced games and the future updates to xbox one..

I didn't see the negative reaction some claim was obvious..ms' e3 made me go out and preorder my x1 the next day.. So I'm hoping for more of the same..

Sad that a couple games I want aren't happening anytime soon, if at all.. Borderlands and BioShock.. Maybe a new batman would be nice

[3-4-5]

Somebody show the Dev's at 343 a copy of Halo 2 multiplayer so they can ACTUALLY MAKE SOME GOOD MAPS FOR A CHANGE.

95% of the maps in Halo 2, are better than any Halo map that came after it.

The other 5% reside within Halo 3 & Reach.

Halo 4 was trash. ( maps)

* Also, shipping with 9 maps Wasn't acceptable LAST Gen. Don't make the same mistake again 343. Otherwise you will have proven you don't care.

[Kemistri]

I'm not entirely sure where you guys are getting this impression from but the reason why the majority of the games were demoed on the PS4 was simply because Sony was able to get their dev kits out earlier and faster to more studios. These same studios had a chance to start working with their xb1 dev kits a few months after from my understanding.

So the unfortunate nature was that Microsoft took longer to get their kits out and also there were driver issues, sdk updates, etc. It was a fast moving target.

This was already widely talked about during last years original game reveals.

[TyBREAKR]

Did anyone notice masterchief had a poncho on?

[Tmitmp4]

June is just too far away, I have a feeling XB1 will have an amazing showcase.

[SockeyBoy]

Same here. I feel Sony has really pushed with their exclusives in the last couple of years, I think MS will start doing the same. Phil Spencer said that MS has never had so many games in development than now. Bring on E3 2014.

[Bonkerz]

MS has passed my expectations in the "games" department by miles. Coming from a 360 i did not expect them to come so strong with this type of lineup. I must say they are doing an incredible job, and i cannot wait for E3.

[SoapShoes]

Yeah considering the 360 has been a deflating balloon since 2010 and completely dead in games last year and this year, they have upped their ante. Hopefully they get off of this "media" focus and deliver on the games.

[Bonkerz]

Are you serious? Since the launch of X1 it has been constant game announcements in fact i havent even heard much about the media stuff. It is a GAMING console it just happens to be able to do a ton of other stuff. MS is doing an incredible job with the X1, i could not be happier.

[BX81]

@soapshoes. Where have you been bro? Ms has been talking about games mostly.

[Prime157]

http://i.imgur.com/zl10SZ0....

The image above means that ms is holding back!

[Geekman]

That's good. Lower the price to $350 and get me some Gears of War, and I might buy an Xbox One.

[OpieWinston]

There is no "might buy an Xbox One"
Microsoft is probably going to lower the price a bit but not to $350.
They'll do exactly what Sony did last generation...Continue to pump out strong First party and third party games in order to keep people buying consoles and software.

The under dog status has shifted and Gears wont hit for another 2-3 years.

[Geekman]

When you have 6 Wii U games to buy and 5 PS4 games to buy, yes, there is a "Might Buy an Xbox One."

[Prime157]

Wait, you think the 360 was the underdog system? I think it was crazy strong...

[beerzombie]

With Titanfall and Evolve coming Its going to be a good year to play on X1."Dedicated servers" I think once the word gets out on how smooth it is to play online on X1 people will come.

[AutoCad]

nice , hopefully they announce they are working on ryse 2.

[TheOmniGamer]

And hopefully Platnium Games is working on Ryse 2 XD

@OpieWinston
It was a joke mate XD

[OpieWinston]

No No No No...Hopefully Platinum Games is working on THEIR OWN franchise...I want Crytek working on Ryse 2.

Ryse was an awesome game with a great story and killer ending.

They've been hiring quite a few people with Hack & Slash experience since Ryse was released... So they're more than capable of making Ryse games.

Platinum Games has a very talented team but I think they would cripple Ryse.

[christocolus]

I agree with opiewinston. Platinum games should give us a new ip while crytek works on the ryse sequel,they've got tod pappy now(former director at ssm) and if ms can hire enough ex-ssm devs, then together with crytek they should be able to get a proper sequel to ryse out.

E3 is going to be amazing. Ms seems to have so much in store and the part about "unexpected announcements" makes me really curious..... damn you phil. Stop teasing us like this.

[Automatic79]

@autocad I agree Ryse was a great game can't wait to see more.

[BX81]

I like ryse as well but I would like to see a hold on sequels for a bit and more new ips announced.

[TheOmniGamer]

No Halo news not until June... Damn, so far away. Really looking forward to E3 2014, seems like Playstation and Microsoft will have some megatons to announce, may just be the best E3.

[NukaCola]

Should be all true nexgen showings and new suprises as well. Personally still holding faith in Fallout 4 announcement.

[TrueJerseyDevil]

let's hope we get a Halo 2 anniversary announcement before June

Finger's Crossed*

[Bolts-N-Rays1109]

E3 is going to be awesome this year. June is so far from now.. Thankfully, I'll have Titanfall to help pass the time. :)

[joefrost00]

So E3 last year wasnt steller
God how I love dualshockers lol

[MorePowerOfGreen]

Thanks man. I posted that on reddit before he edited the article like that. I deleted it. I was wondering why redditors were ignoring my article, then reposted the raw tweets with the news lol

There is always some spin,pessimism or a dig when reporting positive XB1 news. The article should have remained in the context of games offerings.

[HomerDog]

I was submitting an article here about how sony is closing 2/3 of their stores in the US and they keep denying the article. Every time theres a negative sony article it gets brought down but everyday you get articles bashing xbox non stop from maria and heavy. The moderators here are such fanboys no wonder n4g is infested by them.

[n4rc]

I've had guys insulting and swearing at me so I laugh and point out the contradictory bs and add in a "moron"

Boom.. Comment blocked, banned from commenting with the msg of "report them to mods rather then call them morons"

Yet their comment remained and never get any action taken against them.. Lol

That's happened 2-3 times now.. Different strokes for different folks I guess lol

[lemoncake]

I am glad that microsoft is the underdog, they will have to dig deep into their massive pockets which will be great for us gamers.

[nastynapkin]

Microsoft go big or go home

[Convas]

I can't wait, MS seems like they know what they need to do to get back on the right track.

E3 2013 was a good start, looks like they'll be building on that foundation @ E3 2014.

[JCOLE13195]

This years E3 is gonna be absolutely amazing. I can't wait to see what both Microsoft and Sony bring to the table.

[colonel179]

I'm interested in the "unexpected" part. Hopefully is not a cheap shot.

[Ashunderfire86]

The unexpected part, is going to be reboots of old original Xbox games for X1 I bet. I would love to see a new Brute Force game, Blood Wake, and many others make a return. If Microsoft makes Perfect Dark 2, then I will Xbox One right away. That's the one game that will make me buy an Xbox One real quick lol!

[KEEPNITREAL]

@ Ashunderfire86
I like how you think ! Brute force and Black are 2 of my favorite games of all time. Remember these games Delta force,Gex,Medievil,Killswitch, Turok,Dino crisis and Parasite eve !!! This is the reason I buy all consoles , to play games. Been gaming since the ATARI 2600.

[BillJr106]

DayZ would be great. I would love to try that game... excited about what MS has coming, also, New Gears Of War!

[TheRedButterfly]

"Halo news will be coming at E3. 343i has a great plan in place, will be cool to share with everyone."

Let's hope that 343i's "great" dev. schedule puts Halo 2 Anniversary on November 2014, and put Halo 5{?} to November 2015. That way I've got plenty of time to love both Bungie's and 343's babies! :D

FPSs of 2014: Titanfall in a week [or so], Evolve in August, Destiny in September, Halo in November… GONNA BE GREAT!

The rest of 2014: Thief now, Dark Souls II in a week [or so], LEGO The Hobbit in April, Mario Kart in May, and a bunch of release dates in between now and then even more at E3!! Can't wait!

[LAWSON72]

I tell you what MS you make a mindblowing Banjo Threeie (awesome platformer that us nostalgic fans will love and IMO if it does not effect SP add in a N&B multiplayer because it was awesome to play online) and a proper Halo 2 anniversary edition I may buy a Xbone.

Though I really dont want that stupid Kinect that just makes the price unappealing, but if games I want come out and I have the cash I may not be able to wait long for a better price.

[Max-Zorin]

I would love for them to bring back Blinx the time sweeper, a proper Fusion Frenzy, Project Gotham, etc.

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

This guy thinks Sony and Nintendo are just going to sit there twiddling their fingers at E3.

[namEuser]

Def brute force, "MS VR tech or whatever their working on" tao feng fist of the lotus, crimson skys, and some new ip's...

[worldwidegaming]

WOW! That's in June right? So you wait for an announcement for a game that will be released most likely in November?
If master chief don't save them by January there will be nothing left to save...
Trailers can not save you this time Microsoft!

[PS3and4_HAS_GAMES]

lol you took the words right out my mouth.

[beerzombie]

You sure he didn't put something in your mouth

[PS3and4_HAS_GAMES]

microsoft better hurry up and release halo because ps4 is kicking @$$!!!!!!!!!!!! not that halo will make much of a difference but i know you xbox fans are dying for some positive news already lol.

[malokevi]

Have*

[christocolus]

Lol.. you hurt or something? Why dont you go find a ps article to entertain yourself instead of being so much of a naive fanboy around here.

[PS3and4_HAS_GAMES]

I own a ps4, you know the console thats basically blowing the xboxone out the water. So why on earth am I hurt????? Lol

[christocolus]

Wow..im so happy for you but my question still remains. Are you hurt? Is this article about sony or the ps4? Nope..its about halo and unannounced xbx one games something that obviously doesnt concern you and Since your so proud of your choice why reduce yourself to trolling others? Grow up dude and if you have nothing meaningful or mature to contribute to these articles then pls kindly sthu. Its fanboys like you that make sonyfans look so bad out there..

[Gunstar75]

please give us Halo Wars 2 !!!!!

[Mexxan]

If they mention the damn Cloud once, they can eat the peanuts outa my.....

[hamburgerhill]

It's hard for me to get excited for xbox1 at e3 after so many let downs (no games) in the past. This time however I have a feeling good things are coming. I've never really cared much for Sony and grew out of Nintendo long ago leaving me with one option. If MS can really focus on games again I just might start to love gaming again.

[curtis92]

"New, Announced, Unannounced and Unexpected"

Sums up MS in one line. Just throwing PR words out there in random order hoping something sticks.

[Petebloodyonion]

WOW MS will show the Halo2 remake
Honestly what's the fuzz?
Show me Quantum Break, show me project Spark, Show me some great Kinect's ideas.
Give me a reason for why I would want to pay 100$ more compare to a ps4.

And it's not by showing me remakes or games that can easily be made on a 360 or PS3!

[s1lentone]

How about displaying all xb1 games on the xb1 and not the pc then say it's on xb1. Be honest no more PR wordsmith. Make me feel like I didn't waste my money on the xb1. Its all I ask. Thank you.

[killzone619]

the return of halo 2's multiplayer on xbox one will be awesome
