Xbox E3 2019 Briefing

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

I'm ready... Got my Doritos and Mount Mahh DEW next to me! Gimme that Halo INFINITE gameplay and release date and a few extra surprises and I'll be happy for the rest of my Sunday.

 

[CyberPanda]

Here we go. I better wear my depends.

 

[Musky_Cheese]

I got my Mountain Dew flavored Doritos

Yes they were a thing

 

[Aintitcool]

Xbox game cloud is not coming to the switch your tripping balls bro. Nintendo would never allow a service that lets users in on their 50 euro fixed game prices on things. Nintendo is far to backwords for that.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

This is going to be Microsoft's most important E3 conference yet.

I honestly can't wait to see this

 

[CyberPanda]

 

[zcaa0g]

I'm hoping backwards compatibilty also has some updates. They have been on a break for about a month now.

 

[Silent Viper]

Nice. Only Press conference that matters

This is definitely my most anticipated conference this year. Looking forward to it!

 

[CyberPanda]

Last year's Halo Infinite reveal trailer literally gave me goosebumps I can't imagine how amazing it's gonna look on Xbox NXT with the new Slipspace engine.

They worked on the engine for 5 years, and yea it's gonna look pretty.

 

[DeepEnigma]

In for that Halo Infinite joint!

And most definitely that Miyazaki / GRR Martin mashup!

 

[Pallas]

Aw man I wish Sunday would hurry up already. Can’t wait to see what they are delivering and I really hope we get to see more of Halo Infinity, Fable reboot and some Nextgen info.

 

[Mista]

Xbox game cloud is not coming to the switch your tripping balls bro.

Ummm what?

 

[Cranberrys]

I'm pretty sure MS is gonna rock the house this year.

 

[JimiNutz]

I'm ready for an amazing Halo Infinite showing, a release date for Xbox 2020, Battletoads and Banjo 3.

Please deliver.

 

[Nikana]

You shouldn't expect hololens 2.

I just want an Ori release date

 

[Mr Hyde]

Most anticipated conference on E3. I can already hear the salt shakers rumble in the distant horizon, from literally everyone of both sides.

 

[D.Final]

I'm expecting the big One announcement

Elder Ring.
Cinematic and gameplay trailer

Hype

 

[RobDaMerciless]

Can’t wait

 

[Husky]

• Halo Infinite
• Splinter Cell 7 announcement
• Deus Ex 3 or Sleeping Dogs 2 Announcement

Phil Spencer Pre-E3 Podcast with Major Nelson

Summary by user Rychu from resetera

• Phil Spencer won’t be on stage as much this year because it’s about the games and letting the games talk for themselves
• More games than they’ve ever had on their stage in Microsoft’s E3 history at the briefing
• Phil Spencer thought that Stadia presentation was great, says people need to stop thinking of game companies as “needs to win and take down the other”, they’re competitors but they root for each other
• Phil Spencer says we are seeing a shift in the games industry, notes that E3 is different this year because Netflix, Amazon and Google are all at E3 this year. He also says he thinks E3 is more focused on consumers and fans instead of press or retail in the digital era.
• Microsoft thinks E3 is important to see the fan reactions to all of the announcements, no plans to stop doing E3.
• xCloud is confirmed in the show and is releasing this year, will get feedback from customers to make it better. Microsoft thinks it’s the future. Phil says it’s very important that people understand that xCloud’s mission isn’t to replace PC, console or phone. It’s about choice to play games whatever way you want to play.
• 14 first-party games is a minimum and isn’t the maximum of first-party games you will see, however he tweeted that there would be 14 because he didn’t want people to start saying things like “how many studios do they have and how many partnerships do they have and how many of those games are new, what counts as a first party game”, etc. He says “let’s just say we have a lot of first party studio representation at E3 this year and a lot of games to show.”
• Microsoft doesn’t know how long the show will be, they still have two more rehearsals left and they’re trying to get the show down to 90 minutes which is their “sweet spot”, but it might run longer. Phil Spencer says that they know gamers don’t want to see him or anyone else talking for long periods of time and that will help a lot in bringing down the runtime of their show tomorrow.

So what is the Capcom Development Division 1 game that Jun Takeuchi teased back in December 2018 on a Famitsu interview?
Is it going to be Dino Crisis 4?
RE3 Remake?
Perhaps an Onimusha reboot (since Takeuchi's directorial debut was Onimusha 1 on PS2)?
Maybe Capcom might unveil that game in the MS Conference.
I am so excited to find out what that game actually is, since it will surprise fans (as Takeuchi promised)

Jun Takeuchi is the head of Capcom Development Division 1 (where RE7, RE2Remake and DMC5 were made)
http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/company/officer02.html

Jun Takeuchi

Jun Takeuchi (竹内 潤, Takeuchi Jun?) is a Japanese video game director and producer. He served as the producer for Onimusha 3 and Lost Planet and chief producer for Resident Evil 5. Takeuchi has also worked on other Capcom games such as Street Fighter II for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System...

Capcom Dev Division 1 actually teased Dino Crisis back in Dec 2017 on their official twitter account.
They said that they might bring it back, if there was considerable demand for the Dino Crisis series.
