Xbox & Bethesda E3 2021 Games Showcase on June 13 at 10:00am PT , 6:00pm BST.

 

 

Xbox Twitch Link.

Xbox Youtube.

Xbox.com link.

Windows Central Gaming is going to have a co-stream going on here.

 

With this quickly approaching I figured it was time to make an official thread for the show.  Feel free to post what you expect to see, hope to see, rumors, and thoughts on what they actually show come Sunday.

30 games shown, 27 coming to game pass day 1.  Number of exclusives and timed exclusives were shown.

 

I think the show was a solid 8/10.  It was just one game after the other game.  And I feel like they're still holding back on news.

MS put on a solid show. The best part for me was definitely the imminent release of Flight Simulator. 

 

Looking forward to trying out FH5 and some of the indie titles like A Plague Tale and Requiem. 

 

What did people think of the new Halo footage?

The Halo footage has got me interested in the multiplayer.

 

I think that portion of the game been free to play will do a lot to keep the multiplayer relevant over the years, in addition I believe free to play titles now don’t require a subscription to play online, which will be great to randomly have games with friends who no longer subscribe to Xbox Live.

 

Age of Empires IV looks great also, sadly buying a GPU at a reasonable price is proving next to impossible, so I don’t think I’ll be playing that anytime soon unless it comes to xCloud.


I’ll be interested to try Flight Simulator on xCloud to see how that performs, possibly one of the first xCloud games to run on the newer Series X hardware? Going back to the GPU problem above I’ve not been able to play this yet either.

I don't think you can make fun of the new Halo footage.  The MP looked great so why wouldn't the SP side look just as good or even better?   It's been the case till now that devs cut down a little on the MP side to make sure you get steady frame rate and no connection issues, so I think the MP looked solid visually which tells me the campaign is going to look great.

 

The show also had some nice little gems that will be hitting game pass that I'm looking forward to playing.  Like the Ascent for sure.  Replaced looked great.    They had a little bit of everything in there for everyone IMO.

 

Rest of 2021 looks solid to me.

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
