There's going to be quite a bit here, so I'm going to try and keep everything short and sweet, to try and save time.
Halo 5: Guardians
The conference started off with a game play trailer. First thing I should mention is that this game looks great. The effects are just beautiful. I also noticed, for me at least, new enemy types. The trailer also seems to imply that either the Spartans or Master Chief are working with the Covenant.
In the game, you'll play with 2 groups of Spartans, either as Lock and his group, or the Chief and his group. I personally cannot wait to play this game. I also should note, that the multiplayer supports 24 people now, and they showed a map off as well. This is one game definitely on my radar.
Recore
This one is from Keiji Inafune. The concept seems to revolve around cores, which you use for your ai companions, and which you take from your enemies. Not sure if the ones you take are used to make new companion cores, or if there's just the one. We know there is a dog companion, and what appeared to be an ape companion as well. Hopefully we'll hear more on this game later.
Fallout 4
Pretty much the same from Bethesda's conference, but there was new news as well. Mods can be shared from PC to XBOX One. I would imagine it can go both ways, but it wasn't said, so it might not. Game still looks amazing.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2
I liked the original one of this one, so it's good to see it get a sequel. The plants looked completely upgraded, almost futuristic in a sense. This game should be great, and I imagine there will be more on this game during EA's conference.
Forza 6
The first thing I noticed is just how good this game looks. The developer on stage said that it is the biggest, most technically advanced, and best looking game they've ever built.
Personally, Forza just isn't my kind of game. I'm sure there's going to be more than enough for the players who do enjoy games like these. The reveal trailer also added that the game will have 24 car multiplayer, which I think will be great for people who enjoy these games.
Dark Souls 3
Nothing was said about this game, just a trailer. Most notable thing about it was what I'm almost positive is a boss that has the size of one of the colossi from Shadow of the Colossus. The graphics are great, which almost all of the games revealed so far have great graphics
.
Tom Clancy's The Division
This game is an action rpg set in the Tom Clancy universe. It looks like a shooter to me more than anything, but there wasn't much to go on, other than the XBOX One has an exclusive beta trial. Hopefully, Ubisoft will reveal more in their conference.
Rainbow Six Siege
I actually read about this one a little while back, and this one should be pretty interesting. Choosing whether to attack or defend your objective and the various ways to do so, seems like an interesting twist, rather than the modes you see in most shooters that are essentially Team Deathmatch with an alternate way to win.
Something else to note, they're giving away Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and 2 with Siege for free. So essentially, you're getting 3 games for the price of one.
Gigantic
This game is 5v5 team action game, where heroes battle alongside a guardian in a fight for supremacy. The graphics are cartoony, but still look pretty good, kind of in a Windwaker way. I hadn't heard anything on this game, but it looks like it's worth a shot. I'll give it a try.
They only showed some quick videos of some indie games next, leading into some bigger indie games shown afterwards. I'll list all the ones shown in the video, the most part I've not seen or heard of any of them except for a few.
Cuphead
Rise & Shine
The Mean Green
The Flame in the Flood
Phantasmal: City of Darkness
The Solus Project
Westardo: Double Barreled
Sword Coast Legends
Outworld: The Adventurer Life Sim
Goat Simulator: Mmore Goatz Edition
Game 4
Below
ARK Survival Evolved
Recruits
Super Hot
Tacoma
There wasn't anything other than a video showing a part of this game, and really, there wasn't much to go on. The video doesn't show a whole lot, and there isn't anything at the site, other than the original video that was shown at E3. I haven't seen anything else on this game anywhere else either yet. If I find out anything else about this game, I'll make a post about it. Until then, there's really nothing I can say about it.
Ashen
This game looks like a co-op fantasy type game. It seems that there will be places where you will definitely need someone else to help you advance. Teamwork seems to be a key foundation of this game, and if done right, could be good. I don't like the faceless characters, and quite frankly think they're creepy, so maybe they'll do something about that. Otherwise, this looks like it could be an ok game.
Beyond Eyes
This game is about a girl named Rae, a 10 year old girl who lost her sight when she was a toddler to a fireworks accident that left her traumatized, fearing loud noises and public places. She prefers to spend time in her special garden, where she enjoys the smells and everything is nice. She has also befriended a stray cat she's named Nani. Rae gets the courage to leave the garden when Nani disappears. Even though everything's frightening and unfamiliar, Rae learns to overcome her fears and finds beauty and possible new friends outside her golden cage.
Cuphead
This game looks like an old Mickey Mouse cartoon, which is actually pretty freaking cool. From what I've read about the game, the concept is that the main characters, Cuphead and Mugman, gambled with the devil and lost, and now have to do his bidding. Everything about this game just looks amazing. I really want to play this game, and can't wait for it to come out.
Ion
The reveal trailer for this game didn't really show much of anything, and so far, I've not been able to find anything else out about this game. If I come across anything on this game, I'll post about it later, but for now, there's just not much to go on.
Rise of the Tomb Raider
There was a video shown of this game. So far it looks pretty good. I'm not sure what part of the game was shown but for what was shown, it looks really good so far. As for the gameplay, it looks a lot like the first one, which I started playing a little while ago, and have to say is pretty good too. If it's anything like the first, then it should be worth getting.
Rare Replay
This is essentially just a collection of Rare games, all together in one package. It should be pretty good, seeing that Rare has some of the best games ever made. The unfortunate part is that there won't be any Donkey King games in this.
Sea of Thieves
This looks to be an open world pirate multiplayer game, almost like an MMO. There was some interesting things at play here, such as making a player walk the plank, and the exploration. This game looks really good, and is up there on my list of games to play.
Fable Legends
The video of this game looks exactly like what you'd expect a Fable game to look like, which isn't exactly a bad thing. The game itself is supposed to be a 4 player co-op game, almost like the 4 on 1 type of game like Evolve, the last time I read about it. I'm a pretty big fan of the Fable series, so it should be interesting to see if this game can continue this series success.
Microsoft Hololens
This thing looks really freaking nice. If this does what was shown at E3, this thing will be amazing. There's not really anything else to say about it. You should watch it in action.
Gears of War 4
The video of this game looks pretty good. Everything about it has a Gears of War look to it, maybe a little darker. I know that was one thing being said is that it looked really dark. Personally, it looked pretty good to me. I didn't get to play the last one, but the rest of the series, I've played, and it's all been good, so here's to hoping that this one will be good as well.
And that does it for this years E3 for Microsoft. I'm gonna try to have Sony and Nintendo's E3 conferences posted up later this week, while also posting what my favorites of this years E3. Thanks for reading.
