The Slim, which is code-named Edmonton, will have a 2TB hard drive and be significantly smaller (40%) than the original Xbox One. It’ll also support 4K video. We believe it’ll be out in the next couple of months, perhaps in August.
Dishonoured 2 and Skyrim remaster, must buys for me.

We'll definitely be supporting Titanfall 2 post-launch, and I can confirm all maps and modes we deliver post-launch will be free. We'll be talking more about post-launch plans closer to release so stay tuned for more info.
I don't know looking at that Battlefield one doesn't get me all fired up to run out and get it, it just feels like all the other battlefields with new skins. The planes fly way to smoothly, its more of the running around shooting stuff individual game play stuff.
To me WW1 would be hard to capture because of the type of war it was.
If you forced hundreds of in game players into trenches where the only way that they could have success was to basically have them all rush over the trench walls at the same time to be cut down by bullets then that might give you the feel of terror. If you could pick an engineering class who's only job was to dig underneath enemy trenches to plant mines.
Or to have gas attacks that force you to put on a heavy low visibility gas mask then you would be getting somewhere.
Even the plane fights just looked too much like the WW2 version of battlefield. You should be constantly fighting stalls and engine failures.
I don't think I'd buy this because it feels like the same old same old.

I imagine the lack of team play comes down to people simply screwing around / wanting to try things out at E3. Lots of people like conquest but I hope they have a rush type game mode.
If you notice, every class seems to be carrying gas masks so I expect there will be times when you will need to equip them.
I think it already looks superior to BF3/4 since you won't be met with lock-on warning sirens upon entering a vehicle.
You would probably be more interested in a game like Verdun.
I love the Battlefield formula enough to pre-order it with the knowledge that it will be good. I assumed there'd be a certain amount of sensationalization of WW1 in video game form, but many of the details will still be accurate and it's fantastic that they're even taking a look at the conflict. It would have been even easier to move 10 years forward or backward in time and just do another quasi re-skin in modern times.
Pretty disappointed with the Mass Effect trailer. I get that they could be trying to keep info to a minimum to have a greater impact closer to launch, but it's worrisome to me that they've revealed so little so far.
Still lots to take in from that short trailer though...namely, they're going straight for brand recognition by making another Normandy SR2/3 looking ship, and another Citadel looking station (neither appear to be the same, so I suppose they didn't just turn the Citadel on and drive out). I guess there was no time for advancements before leaving the Milky Way and going to Andromeda?
I pretty much skipped BF4 except right at launch, and BF1 looks closer to BF1942 (especially the planes) so I'm totally ok with it and am a little excited.

I certainly give Microsoft credit for putting forth a legitimate effort to bring their games to PC. Gears 4 coming to Windows 10 and it's cross-buy/cross-play for co-op. Forza 3 Horizon also announced for Win 10.
