Expectations are set low for me, the 360 is on it's last year so I don't think there's much left to do with it. If that one rumor of a smaller, media centric/arcade only version for some low price comes true that'd be cool.

Even if the Xbox 3 comes out end of next year, we still have the rest of 2012, and all of 2013 to get through. I imagine they have SOME games that are coming out in that time frame.

Well ya, but I don't think anything to get people going other than Halo 4 and whatever Crytek does. But who knows? Maybe there's something hidden in there. Still I'm pretty sure next years E3 should be the big one with news of the next Xbox coming out.

yeah, i think GP is right. MS and Sony suffer from lazyitis. keep your expectations low this E3, there won't be much to talk about. i wouldn't be surprised if half of it will be about Windows Phone somehow.

Windows Phone stuff would be more interesting to me than more casual kinect stuff like last year. I'm down for some more 360 and WP integration/cross-platform play. Some think MS could talk about Windows 8 a bit as well, but I dunno.

Wasn't there a rumour kicking about that Windows Phone 8 would be announced at E3?

EDIT: Ah, I just read that WP8 is expected to be announced at the developer conference in June.

Actually the rumour was for Windows 8 RP going out at E3 cuz MS has said first week of June etc. They might tease some WP8 game stuff at E3 but we'll have to wait for the big demos at their developer conference.

Still, I think it's telling, WP8 dev conference after Win8 RP (and probably near final Win8 SDK) goes out, which probably means rumors of WinRT being the next dev platform on the phone are looking more and more true. Not that I had any doubt though, we all know SL and XNA are on the way out.

yeah i guess Win Phone 8 stuff would be nice, better hardware, so finally some decent games. i mean i love my WP7 device, but it is rather low spec compared to Android. and we don't have any FPS titles available.

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
