Misc

Work in progress
Times and links will be added as they become available.

I think they showed enough Fable Legends already, I don't expect to see it at their press even again.  Tomb Raider is a given though, and probably the others on that list.  Much more interested in what surprises they have, they've been hinting at quite a lot of exclusives this time around.

Not showing a game the year it launches? Only if they've gone completely mad and want to give away easy press.

After playing Fable Legends this weekend, I would say don't bother dedicating much if any time to this F2P game. It looks great, plays fine, but it aint nothing to write home about. It's a rinse and repeat game sadly.

You don't have to give it any real time on stage, everyone knows about it, they've shown it off this year, at least twice, maybe 3 times, to date.  I think fans get the idea already, besides if you have other new things to show off that'd be better time spent.  Toss it up on some video with a list of other things and be done with it.

Gears of War 4 is certain enough to make it to the list? I know MS has re-secured the rights and a "project is being worked on" but could that not be a HD remake?

I just don't want to get my hopes up :(

I thought they they were doing both (an HD remake of the first three and a separate fourth).

I didn't know anything was official, I'm happy with a remake of one-three and then a fourth game

 

There was that whole story about leaked videos of a HD remake for the first game on XB1 and then people getting banned for breaking the NDA.   But that wasn't done by Black Tusk, it was reported through some other studio was handling it, like how they did the Halo HD, it wasn't done through 343i, other studios did HD updates to Halo 1 and 2.

 

I think they're going to do the same thing to Gears they did with Halo, a HD remake for 1-3 and then a new 4th game coming after that.

 

As much as I'm a fan of Gears though, I'd like new titles to, new IP or bringing back other/older IP we haven't seen in years.  Hell, I'd be down for a new Perfect Dark game, I'm a fan of stealth based games, it'd be perfect for some stealthy first person fun.

I know what you mean yeah, I suspect this will end up like Halo MCC. Bought it, played a bit but nowhere near as much as I expected.

With Sony moving to E3 and PSX (Playstation Experience in December), it's a decent move for MS to bulk up Gamescom. It's very close to E3 this year, the reason Sony peddled that they won't be attending. If MS blow their load at E3, it's a long wait till GDC with PSX right in the middle to keep the focus on Sony.

I do remember seeing a Tweet from EA Access saying there's something special during E3 for EA Access users so would expect a new game, Titanfall would be another good addition. ##

 

Can't access the link at work but why does adding Titanfall go against the T&Cs?

No idea, they never gave a reason why it was excluded. Probably because it was supposed to be their flagship seller last year and they didn't want to cannibalize sales.

live blogs are starting up around the web.

 

Here's a direct link to MS's video stream.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
