How long untill we get info?

It's gonna be good!

Also, it's Gamescom, not Gamescon. Fix that.

Won't be able to watch it, but I'll check the vids later then.

I really can't believe that people get excited for these "remastered" collections of games that they just bought and played a couple of years ago.

@hood_honky: European time.

It's fixed!

@charizard1605: yep, Aug 4th 3pm UK time....

Can't hardly wait, it's like MS having two E3's this year, gonna be some great stuff to see and hear more about. :)

Updated post

This is MS chance to gain some ground in EU. I think they going to do it up big in gamescom. I can't wait.

All I really want to see and get info about is Crackdown. The other games are just fluff for me unless they can wow me. Looking forward to some co-op crazyness from Crackdown.

I want that W10 interface on the X1....please announce

Nobody posted a thread because MS's gamescom is tomorrow not today. (U.S. time)

Also why would Gears Ultimate be in the announcements listif it's already announced and releases this month?

it hasnt hit the preview program yet and it usually comes there a month before it releases officially. I think its not coming until later in the fall like October or something. But it would be cool if they announced you can download it today like they did with BC. Might happen considering windows 10 dropped last week would be nice!

Oh yeah TC you can add Frontier is announcing the CQC for Elite: Dangerous on XBox One as well. Close Quarter Combat mode which is basically like an arena commander mode for E:D.

Initially it was actually coming to Xbox One first before PC as part of the deal with bringing the game to Xbox but they changed it up and are releasing it for both at the same time.

That's what I am hoping for since I am a preview member...it would be pretty sweet.

UK time pretty please? :3

3pm August 4

@charizard1605: Merci, mon ami! :D

Hopefully there's more new game announcements rather than rehashing things from E3

And obviously I care more about any announcements of games coming to PC

what time does it start EST?

it's 7 AM PDT, so then 10 am eastern

Yay! It's finally stickied! @TigerSuperman Yeah well, it's better early than later, also they did announced that pack recently today.

@FireEmblem_Man: You'll know Tiger's dead right?

Yeah right.... How did he died?

@FireEmblem_Man: Banned.

Oh, okay

IGNFirst this month is Scalebound. Theres an extended gameplay demo tomorrow after the conference, really curious to see what the game is about

Okay, I'll admit it. I am very curious to see how they use the cloud for Crackdown. Looking forward to seeing what's been cooking.

Really want to see what Scalebound and Crackdown are as well as hopefully get a release date for Quantum Break

Only looking forward to Recore, hopefully they announce a PC version.

Meh. I'd rather see QB and hoping for a PC version announcement.

This is going to be good. Finally going to see some gameplay from Scalebound. I hope they show the physics of Crackdown. It would be cool if you could destroy a whole building in the game.

I'd like to see the new os.

Damn I'm hyped for this, I didn't play Crackdown on 360 but I've heard the first one is excellent, second one not so much though

Looking forward to it! Bottom line is there are a lot of good looking games that will make an appearance. More than anything, I want to see actual gameplay of games like Scalebound, and I hope the new IP/game they will announce is interesting. One thing is for sure, MS wants the attention of Xbox fans tomorrow, they have been hyping this show for a while....so I hope we are not disappointed! I wouldn't mind an announcement of Forza Horizon 3 either!

I was pleased today when the rumored goodies for early preview members dropped(Shadow Complex and Gears of War 1 are now playable on XOne). I hope we see more of Sea of Thieves and Quantum Break. Only thing that sucks is I have to be at work tomorrow....

they should announce more cars and car football for forza 6

I am counting down until 10 am. Gonna be fun Love that all Gears are going BC. I own first 3 digitally and may get Judgement. No need to buy the remaster though.

Fu** that!!! I don't want them to mention the cloud one time in terms of this game, the console, windows 10, Office, nothing. It would ruin my relationship with you. I love your hatred and mouth foaming for all things anti MS/Xbox. You are pure entertainment dude. I want that thread within 30 seconds of the end of their briefing ripping MS for no cloud, QB is weak sauce, Scalebound is meh, Crackdown had nothing regarding the cloud, Recore is trash, Sea of Thieves is MMO multiplat that doesn't count and real gamers don't have fun with those, 900p, X1 getting dropped by far east devs. Don't do this to us, dude...........what we have is worth it.

I don't tend to rip on games quite like that. I might make fun of how similar games are to PS4 games that Lems went on to no end dissing, but I think that gaming is largely subjective. Now, I did make fun of Halo 5 looking pretty asstastic at E3, but I don't stand there banging the gong about it. It's still being optimized and polished and that's generally when the graphics improve before going gold.

HOWEVER, if MS dances around the subject of Cloud after that demo they showed last year and finally getting a chance to show the game that's using their new whizzbang tech, then yeah I will be on that. Where there's smoke, there tends to be mirrors when it comes to XBox and that's why it is not enjoying anywhere near the success the 360 did. Sad thing is, it's really you guys that should be on it. You know what made the PS4 a great console out the gate? It was Sony fans going to Playstation forums and talking about the stuff that just didn't work with the PS3 and talking about how monumentally bad Kutaragi's soundbites were for not only the system but making the fans look bad, as well.

I don't really see that coming from the Lems this gen. Ya'll just hang on every soundbite and NPD quip like a puppet from its strings. And yes, I do call ya'll out on it. For every little thing that gets a pass or stamp of approval, Shewgenja will be here to deliver the lols for people living outside of the Box. Don't mistake my preference this generation for the PS4 as rabid fanboyism. Sony merely learned their lessons and delivered a machine that suits my tastes. I'd talk about the WiiU way more if I could, but the truth is Nintendo did not position that console well and the XBone's immediate price drops really forced Nintendo into a situation where they can't afford to compete in this kind of hostile market. Who knows? If Phil Spencer is half the Messiah of Vidya Gamez that you guys say he is, I'll be all about the XBox Two.

Stay up for the P5 on Xbox One announcement.

Well what forums do you post on besides this one? Did you post on the xbox forum here during the 2013 reveal and E3 Bombaruski? Because we were pretty vocal about it sucking ballbag. I have long posted at the Xbox.com forums and those people were on life support. All of this has been a godsend to me because a trailing and badly perceived MS is rocking with gamer friendly, fan friendly shit right now.

Dude when have I ever mentioned NPD? Find it and show it to me.

Nah, I don't buy it dude. You are a fanboy at least as much as I am or anybody else. You get wood at the mere mention of the xbox division being sold off. You've made enough threads about it.

My body is ready for more Forza 6 info.

Excite me with Scalebound, that's what I'm waiting for.

In for the lolz.
