What's Coming From Microsoft At E3?

E3 2008 is less than a week away, and come Monday morning the internets will be buzzing with the latest news from Xbox 360 producer Microsoft. While we know they'll be plugging their biggest titles - Gears of War 2, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Fable II, and Viva Pinata - what big announcements could we see from the latest of the big 3?

Do you really Queefy!? Who would have guessed.

Already finished watching MGS4 for the 8th time? Already earned all whooping 13 achievement ripoffs on your POS3?

nevermind, that was off-topic even if Queefy deserves it

Microsoft will wow everyone at e-3 and with the now lower price point it will outsell the ps3 5 to 1. Wait and see.

I see the xbox 360 being the console of choice for everyone around the world very soon. A 200 dollar xbox 360 is upon us and when you can get 90% of all games on the system and in most cases they look, play and run better, it's a no brainier.

Wait and see. Xbox 360 is going to cripple the ps3 this Christmas.

rhood0226516d ago

except the 360 has always been lower in price than the Ps3 and has yet to "cripple it." In fact, the PS3 still outsold it in Europe with a similar pricing structure. Even the so-called "Perfect Storm" of 07 didn't cripple it. So, you're assumptions have no base to them.

As many have pointed out in the past, its about GAMES. Unless MS reveals new IPs or major timed-exclusives or exclusives, I don't see them gaining any significant sells outside of the U.S.

Aclay6516d ago

The 360 is already cheaper than the PS3 now, so why isn't the 360 outselling the PS3 right now? If the 360 isn't outselling the PS3 now, I don't think it ever will, I mean, the cheapest 360 is just $30 more expensive than a Wii. Anyone that can afford to buy a Wii can afford to drop $30 bucks more for a 360 Arcade. The 360 Arcade is already at a mass market price in my opinion at $279 because it's as close to $249 as can be.

I guess the only thing Microsoft can do is count on the U.S. market because that's really the only market they can count on at this point, but with the U.S. economy the way it is, I think that Microsoft shouldn't be relying on the U.S. market so much.

...Yeaaaaah.
They better make sure their display console doesn't RROD like the one back in January!

sleepyk6515d ago

Oh wait, does Microsoft already have 360s cheaper and yet, The PS3 stills outsell it. In Europe, after the price cut and cheaper than the PS3 and Wii and still be outsold.

One price cut isn't gonna change the Xbox 360 at E3.

WTF. Are parents teaching their 6 yr olds how to use the internet now these days?? Seriously, that would scare the sh*t out of me. I mean, just imagine 20x more 6 yr olds like QueefyB posting everywhere. *shivers*

Get a life... you god dang dirty 6 yr old

slugg6516d ago

Is a savy company- they've seen the Wii widening its lead and the PS3 finally catching up. They will have good stuff to announce, whatever it may be. Big games are coming-- Gears 2, Fable 2, Banjo, etc., so I look for more future-related announcements (next year) or hardware/software that isn't a game announcements (perhaps being able to surf the web on your 360? New Live interface?) and some Halo- related info that hasn't been seen yet. And, of course, the price drop and 60GB hard drive which is all but official already...

Gears of War 2 Remake was in development “10 years ago” but was scrapped by Xbox

Ayi Sanchez: "Old work. I did this 10 years ago now as part of a material test for a remaster of Gears of War 2 that never happened."

RaidenBlack426d ago

lolz,
hope we're still getting Gears 2 & 3 for PC, as per rumors

Cacabunga426d ago

Xbox always taking the right decisions

XiNatsuDragnel426d ago

Wow... just wow Microsoft sigh at it again 😑

Lightning77426d ago

Weird, in mean they had no studios to make anything really new so there's a part of me thats kinda glad they scrapped it. If they released this back then it would of gotten ridiculed for remakes and remastering stuff. Now they have new and interesting games so the collection is harmless.

CrimsonWing69426d ago

Geez, Xbox, something like that I would’ve bought Day 1. Great business decisions over there.

lucasnooker426d ago

10 years ago it wasn’t such a big deal. The games were only a few years old by that point

CrimsonWing69426d ago

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition came out in 2015 (essentially 10 years ago), having a follow-up to that on the then next-gen console would’ve absolutely been welcomed, in my book.

LoveSpuds426d ago

I can only assume the the Gears of War Remaster flopped so they decided to scrap the other remakes?

Seems short sighted to me as I really enjoyed the 1st remaster. Regardless, I'll snap up some remakes to play on my PS5.
