Ohhh, my! I totally forgot about Hellblade! It should be at #1 or #2 for me!

I wouldnt be so sure. SGF is going to be a BIG event where users from every platform will be watching. I'd use that the same way Xbox did with Series X and Hellblade 2 reveal.
It might be a Starfield Teaser painting at the showcase.
Oh wow, both the DLC and the sequel will be at the showcase?
Gameplay!
0. Unannounced Morrowind or Oblivion remake (I can dream)
1. Elder Scrolls 6
2. Starfield
3. Fallout 5 (I know, I'm cheating here since it's not announced).
4. Fable
5. Perfect Dark
1. Elder Scrolls 6
2. Starfield
3. Fallout 5 (I know, I'm cheating here since it's not announced).
4. Fable
5. Perfect Dark
Yep, a very good call. Makes a ton of sense.
Great energy in here, love to see it. Show will be here before we know it
Morrowind is glorious, playing it on my Mac rn. Hope they revisit it on console, I just want widescreen support!
Naming a Top 5 is VERY difficult for me. Goes to show just how many highly anticipated titles they have coming which align with my tastes. But here goes….
1. Starfield
2. Avowed
3. Hellblade 2
4. Fable
5. Everwild
Pains me to exclude Forza Motorsport, Outer Worlds 2, Indiana Jones, Perfect Dark…and I'm only leaving out Elder Scrolls 6 because it's so far away. If it were closer, it would be near the top.
I'm hoping after this Showcase that inXile's and Compulsion's projects are no linger in the "unannounced" category. If they show up, one or both of these could easily move into the top 5 of my most anticipated list. InXile's game in particular sounds right up may alley.
I know it is not a good example but BF2042 did it last year.
Showed a teaser before the full trailer.
Microsoft might do that to get people hyped for twelve june
Well that's a different situation. This and Ninja Gaiden are his most recent played games, but they were also recently added to Game Pass. He tends to play a lot of games as they release on the service. Banjo is a complete outlier. It was released back in 2008 and he decides to play and unlock his first ever achievement for it just days away from the showcase. That's a tease if ever there's been one.
This sounds really, really good and has gotten me much more excited for it than before. Thanks for sharing!
I mean, they all three could be hints...
lfg
Banjo 3 is an FF7R-caliber announcement, refuse to get my hopes up on that one for fear of being let down
It probably is. Ark 1 is on gamepass for a very long time and ark2 is xbox timed exclusive. Its a game that fit the gamepass model.
I hope it have script support like ark 1. I want the easy 1000G 🤣🤣
They could, yes. But I'm just pointing out the key differences between them. It's just such a random game to play after all these years and at this time of all times. It's no coincidence.
Basically, the rumors/leaks from Jez C., which have been recapped a few pages back.
I'm not interested in big, empty OWs à la Ubi, or in boring repetitive quests (of which Wild Hunt is guilty, too). Meaningful, branching narrative, even for the side-quests (see the Bloody Baron story arch in Wild Hunt), deep lore and interaction with the NPCs, etc., something that makes the world alive and interesting.
Reading the rumors' recap, it didn't feel like the "scope" similarities with TOW were limited to the size of the maps. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my impression.
That game was one of the things I didn't want to see in the show, lol
My list includes games that will likely never be announced, but here it is:
1. Lost Odyssey 2 (or a prequel)
2. Quantum Break 2
3. inXile rumored steampunk RPG
4. PoP
5. Rumored The Coalition new IP
I'm expecting to launch in Game Preview, and I'm not sure in those appear in Game Pass or not.
1. Lost Odyssey 2
2. Blue Dragon 2
3. Killer Instinct sequel
4. New Ninja Gaiden
5. The Xbox Publishing Dragon RPG
Right now we have 2 games that are in game preview and gamepass, ANVIL and Second Extinction
If you count grounded, theres 3, and i think there are more that i forgot.
This is basically Obsidian's entire thing. The only arguable exception has been tOW, and this is pretty obviously a more ambitious production than that. If that's what you're looking for I can't imagine you really have to worry.
1. Forza Motorsport (I think Turn 10 is gonna get looker of the show.)
2. Starfield ( Top tier genre, best setting)
3. Avowed ( Hoping for a really deep and reactive combat system)
4. Fable ( It's really tied with starfield for most anticipated environments)
5. Outer Worlds 2 ( I enjoyed 1 and the writing. Obsidian really has a chance to join the small list of studios i really anticipate anything from.)

Also The Anacrusis, Besiege, Craftopia, and Little Witch in the Woods.
Yeah, I need to play little witch in the woods for the 1000G
Exactly, TOW is an exception, but when I see that Avowed is compared to TOW, well, I legit "worry".

So whenever I say Arcanum I actually mean an Arcanum spiritual successor, because I figured the rights were unclear and of course they didn't belong to InXile. But I just looked it up and it would appear they belong to... Wait for it...
Activision :D
Eh this doesn't seem worth the heartache. I think even reliable insiders are awful at knowing and then conveying production details like this and always use extremely unhelpful generalizations and comparisons. Like how does Jez have any idea about reactivity density or whatever wrt Outer Worlds?
Ok I'll bite

Do y'all think the event will be shorter or longer than 90 minutes? I'm siding on longer, so much gameplay to show.
L
Yeah, I think it will be around 90-100min. This year have way more games than last year (I hope) and last year was a ~85min show
EDIT: the summer game fest event schedule say its 2 hours show for the xbox showcase, wonder if its right.

At 18:25 Geoff mentions there'll be third party Xbox exclusive content at his show.
Xbox having a 90+ minute show and still having games announced at other shows

Honestly, shorter. 85-90 mins sounds ideal to me. SoP showed us how much ground you can cover in 30 mins. Now unlike Sony, MS is gonna have a huge 1st party presence. Between 1P and 3P, the show should reach 60 mins quite comfortably. Then you consider that at least a few of these titles are gonna get extended looks, which I think an additional 30 mins is plenty of time to account for.
Basically if I'm putting the show together, I'm cutting fat and killing my darlings until I get a snappy presentation with zero drag. Constant momentum! The further you go past 90, the harder it is to hold the audience's interest. If people are checking their watches or drifting off (*cough* The Game Awards *cough*) then you're doing it wrong
Yeah so you have nothing to worried about. you just describe an Obsidian game
thought you talked about the scale of the map etc... things like that. (they build tools to make expansive worlds)
