Microsoft E3 2016 Preview: Xbox One Scorpio, First Party Exclusives, UI Updates and More

Microsoft enters this year's E3 as the underdog but what surprises await us?

[Gman32]

Yeah i wanna know when is that backround music feature coming

[darthv72]

odd too as it was a part of the original and 360. I love having my own background music for when I play certain games, especially racers.

[Gman32]

Yup i got alot of cds and mp3 songs i would love to listen to in the backround

[sammarshall102]

If background music is later added to Forza Horizon 2/3, and Forza 6 It would be great

[Crimzon]

I'd have thought that this feature would be default on both the XB1 and PS4 thanks to the operating systems not being limited to tiny pools of memory any more, but they were seemingly first on the chopping block for cut features from both manufacturers. It's been really disappointing because like others have said, it's really nice to listen to your own music when relaxing with a game. Obviously it's not suitable in all situations such as games with a heavy emphasis on story and dialog, but racing games in particular are great for the feature. Hopefully it makes a comeback sometime soon.

Coming for Preview in June and will release most likely late July or early August. Going to be part of the huge Anniversary update.

My best friend's ex-wife makes $95/hr on the laptop. She has been unemployed for six months but last month her income with big fat bonus was over $14k just working on the laptop for a few hours. Read more on this site.... www.earnmore9.com

A cassette player will fix your music problems /jk

* Background music was one of the best parts of the Or xbox & 360.

If a game has a crappy OST, then I can listen to my own music.

* Fifa always had solid OST's so I never had to use it for that, but with PES ( only 10-15 songs) you need some newer music.

* NHL & NBA games usually have crappy OST's as well so having my own music to listen to helps a bit.

I've just resorted to listening to music on my iphone/itunes and turning the volume on the TV down for certain sports games during franchise mode.

* I love video game music though, so for the most part I want to listen to the in game music but having the option to listen to whatever is really fun....especially with games like Skate 2&3.

Ugh, clicked on the article and surprise! Ads everywhere! Never visit Gamingbolt again.

[Satyre28]

Seriously absolutely ridiculous. Auto opened up an ad that downloaded flashplayer which was actually a virus... These sites should be ashamed of themselves, made my antivirus go nuts.

[REDGUM]

Thanks for the heads up!

[magiciandude]

Oh quit whingeing dude. You can install an ad-block plugin in your browser and visit the site without them.

[Kingthrash360]

You miss the point....
$#@& gamingbolt...flame bait trash making articles solely for clicks and ad rev.

[Nitrowolf2]

Not everyone uses ad blocker solely on the basis that they feel it's not right

I use a blocker is because I'm tired of websites like gamingbolt hammering them out in front of my computer screen, sure it's the answer but it really does say something about the website

[hay]

@Kingthrash360: That's why you need to use the advert block. Blacklist them fuckers and make them count their cents when revenue wont meet with the views.

[Gamist2dot0]

Other sites managed their ads well without hindering the visitors experience. Our time is valuable so to download a software and install just to visit sites like this is absurd. "Aint nobody got time for that."

[gangsta_red]

Magician is right, install Adblock for chrome and you will never have to worry about that again.

[Universal 08]

Adblocker is your friend :)

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

Preview?, does gamingbolt have a crystal ball ?

[ShadowKnight]

I believe so lol

[Deadpooled]

Yep Rashid Sayed and his minions shit these rumours out of their backside and separate them to make the article multiple pages for dem clicks, ready for the reader to eat the shit "2 girls one cup" style.

[rigo8582]

I'm a hardware guy so I get excited for E3 when the potential for new hardware is revealed or announced. Would love to see some thing about Scorpio announced. I'm going into it expecting the Slim as the only hardware announcement. Hopefully I'm wrong.

[Lenrulesdaworld]

you correct sir, they will speak on the scorpio later in the year

[DLConspiracy]

I think if they were to reveal too much on Scorpio they would allow their competitors an advantage. Hell going first at E3 gives their competition an advantage. At this point from a business stand point they need to hang back. Let Sony speak and be sure they have a good plan with prices and everything. Which is probably why they will wait.

[Artemidorus]

It's Trollingbolt so not to be taken seriously until a credible website says the same.

[opinionated]

Is it a leak or a preview? I want to savor the flavor.

[Gol3m]

One thing mentioned that I can't support is an xbox controller redesign. Just leave it alone and bundle the elite controller with it

[mrkbizzle]

They just need to bring it and have one of those drop the mic moments at the end...

[NextGenCeo]

Yeah I watch that movie before. Actually i`m watching every year this movie. No happy end, every single time Cloud power or secret sauce or dx12... Now is the Scorpio KING! :D

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Alan Wake 2 please! :3

[No Way]

I'm not worried about the hardware upgrades.. I won't be upgrading anytime soon. I do, however, wanna see some news on Halo Wars 2, Scalebound, Sea of Thieves, and Recore. Hopefully some new, close to release games, that we don't know about.

[Antnee534]

I wanna see what Scorpio is going to be, the ui is trash and always will be trash since they haven't fixed it up to this point. Games that we know of I want to know more about scalebound, sea of theifs, and crack down 3. I can't wait to see any other games they have in place.

On the other hand I'm still more excited for Sony and their conference.

[EddieDWilliams]

My best friend's step-aunt makes $87 hourly on the computer using his Facebook Account. She has been out of work for nine months but last month her paycheck was $12968 just working on the computer for a few hours.

[GrubsterBeater]

Your best friend's "step-aunt" uses HIS Facebook Account to make $87 an hour?

I think your step-aunt might be a male prostitute, dude...

[Orionsangel]

Between new upgraded consoles and VR. I'm already bored of the E3 press conferences. I don't care about either. I just want announcements for new games I can play on the consoles I already bought and play them my good ol' gamepad and HDTV.

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

"In fact, despite arguably more releases in 2016,"

What?

Xbox One has only ONE exclusive this year... ONE...

Just ONE. Not more than one, just ONE.
