Poll How diverse will the games be at MSes E3 conference? (31 votes)

With the recent studio acquisitions and Phil's gamer-focus, I expect a wide array of AAA first party games from many genres. 48%
With MSes focus with XBox Live and online gaming, I expect mostly multiplayer games and games as service to take the forefront. 29%
I expect MS to revive a focus on singleplayer type of games to put a book-end on the cycle of criticism they have received for focusing on multiplayer games throughout Gen8. 0%
You put your right foot in, you take your right foot out, you put your right foot in and you shake it all about... 23%

14 exclusive games is a whole lot of headroom for twists and surprises. E3 weekend be upon us, and since Microsoft has the center stage this year, what do you guys expect? What would you like to see?

I think it will be quite diverse if the last few conferences are anything to go by... Xbox doesn't really focus on a specific genre like Sony does.

I just hope we see at least a few SP-focused games. Like Ori 2.

They need some big budget AAA SP games. If Bleeding Edge is a sign of what to expect then their show will be a laugher.

Most of these acquisitions were made in recent years, meaning that the games were likely worked on beforehand. To that effect, I expect a fairly diverse lineup, due to them being under entirely different directions at the time. Going forward, I couldn't tell you.

I'm expecting most games to be multiplayer, GaaS type games with a few single player gems mixed in. Lets not forget that MS has been building GaaS for years now and that's not going to flip all of a sudden. I also expect a good portion of the conference to be hardware related.

Also going with an even bolder prediction. There will be a new Xbox on the market by the end of this year.

I'm expecting, A couple MP's, A couple single players and a few both (HALO/Gears),

Maybe some new hardware too. Also news about xbox on switch and GP on PC (hopefully switch too)

That really wouldn't surprising at all.

I don't know. I'm personally expecting a focus on GaaS titles. Deep down, I know MS would rather have something like Fortnite over making robust SP experiences and have them burning out financially like QB or SO. I'm sure they would like to have more games like Minecraft, except building them from the ground up and having them be profitable instead of paying billions to own them when they're already established.

I picked the Hokey Pokey because it was an option.. on that note, I'm hoping for the first option, but don't expect it.

I expect men wearing pink and women wearing blue, and more lesbian action.

MS doesn't do SP, hence the shitty sales numbers. They do MP, pew pew and vroom vroom games that appease American gamers, they should probably discontinue Xbox outside of the states.

Multiplayer shit. Microsoft will never nail first party gaming.

Mind you, I'm hoping they will prove me wrong, thoroughly.

They're going to try to repeat the 360 days when they launched a year ahead of PS3. Which a cheap device. Then when Sony launches their $499-599 box it'll be PS3 all over again.

UK loves racing games though. They seem to really like Forza Horizon as well.

They should build a rig and protest outside playground games to release it on PC.

Why do all the games need to be AAA games? All I see from AAA games is too much emphasis on storytelling and too lite on the gameplay.

Because Microsoft's one big glaring weakness is a complete lack of AAA SP games. If they had one God of War or Spider-Man caliber game it would help them more than 100 Ori's could.

@WitIsWisdom: well, the whole point was what is the expectation. That said, it looks like the majority of voters are choosing diverse range of AAA.

That is not bold.

There is already a "new" Bone on the market. SAD edition.

Half an hour til show time. Half of System Wars believes they will have a diverse lineup of AAA games, 1/3 believe they will continue to focus on MP and service games. The rest took the blah route.

I guess we will find out soon.
