Every E3 there's the pre-show windup, riddled with gossip and hyperbole, and every year that windup gets longer.
Which ones make sense (or don't)? Which are just pranks? Viral rumors? Intentional misdirecting from public relations agents designed to lead tens of thousands of prying eyes astray?
Like everyone else, we can only promise half-guesses in our list below, but then what's the point of E3 without a monkey-barrel's worth of surprises?
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
a 199$ PS3 would be crazy, If 300 had a huge sale spike 200 would explode those charts
If that is going to happen i can't help but feel like it will be missing some features
I think the $199 rumor is true because they have a ton of exclusives announced before E3 to create a lot of buzz, and lowering the price would be the nail in the coffin for people on the fence about the PS3. I think that Playstation will announce a Premium PSN and will reduce the loss they might have from a price lowering, even though PS3 is making profit for Sony right now. I also think that having a PS3 at $199 would make it the cheapest 3D Blu ray player and Sony will promote the hell out of it for those making the switch to 3D. There is a 3D PS3 commercial floating around on YouTube, check it out.
I think a trailer for Uncharted 3 will be shown at E3.
I think Starhawk will be shown and dated for release before Christmas.
I think Jaffe is full of shit and Twisted Metal will be announced.
The $199 PS3 was already de-bunked.
They are already losing close to a billion each year. No way can they take another major loss on hardware sales. The rest of the stuff everyone already knows about. Nintendo confirmed their is a DS successor and We know MS is Re-Branding the Xbox 360 with Natal. So a slim is a natural thing.
Monster hunter ps3. Fullscreen out on psp and ability to use ds3 with a 3000. then I wake up. Im hoping to see 2 worlds 2 in action. Back when i had the ole rrod box I loved the game. Even if it was a tachinical mess
