Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft’s E3 presser to include Capcom, EA, Harmonix, Square, THQ, and Ubisoft reveals

Exclusive are going to become a rare commodity moving forward, so timed exclusives and exclusive DLC will more than likely be the name of the game. That being said:

Capcom will probably be Steel Battalion for the Kenetic
Square Enix will probably be Hitman or some other Eidos effort
THQ will probably be Metro maybe with timed exclusive attached to it, since THQ needs money "now" and Microsoft may supply it for some sort of exclusivity timed or content wise.
EA judging from the last two years will probably be sports titles with Kenetic support because it done so well to this point for EA. (There is some sarcasm in that comment)
Ubisoft has a few things in the work for Wii-U and it will probably be link to those games. (with Kenetic support)
Harmonix will probally be Dance Central 3

This is what I think too.

I'm going to go out on a limb and call Square's announcement will be FF Versus 13 on 360. The game has been in development hell for ages and to cover those costs Square is going to want more money than half the market can provide on just PS3.


Nope. It's Tomb Raider.


Nope, Even if FF V 13 doesn't go multiplatform at E3 it will eventualy go multiplatform. The engine is multiplatform and Square knows half the market is on Xbox 360. FF13 was the test. FF13-2 was the proof. FF V 13 will go multiplatform as well as all future FF games. The industry has changed and there is no longer a single platform that a 3rd party publisher can solely survive on.

Yeah the test to see that no one cares for Final Fantasy on the 360.
For example > Tales of got a huge boost cause Xillia was PS3 Exclusive and so would Final Fantasy.

FF13 - 4,90 PS3   compared to 1,87 on the 360....That was cause people still had hopes for Final Fantasy and didn't expect that the 360 would influence the PS3 Version so much.
FF13-2 -  1,90 Million PS3  compared to 450 000 on the 360 WORLDWIDE.
Cause people are angry at SquareEnix for favoring the 360 the whole Gen - Their HUGE Fanbase is on the PS3 and in Japan.
Look at Tales - It is now more loved than Final Fantasy cause Bamco has seen where the fanbase is.

And what was the proof?The PS3 Version outsells the 360 version by a huge mile even if Microsoft is buying up Deals and SquareEnix Bosses?
The only proof we have is that the REAL Fanbase starts to hate SquareEnix and starts to favor other J-RPGs.

Half the market doesn't mean anything if only 1% of half the market is interested.Cause those few % would buy a PS3 for that game.
And Versus 13 could sell 4 Million alone in Japan if its a PS3 Exclusive - Quote me on that if it stays an exclusive.
Japan has high hopes in Versus 13 and of course Nomura cause he LOVES the PS3 and hates the 360.This affects sales a lot in Japan and a little bit in Europe too.

It will be some Eidos game or a W-RPG attempt from SquareEnix that will be Multiplat anyway.



If any of these are not timed exclusives or multiplats we have a win. Otherwise not so much.



I predict
Capcom Resident Evil 6
EA a sports game with Kinect controls
Harmonix Rhythm game with Kinect controls
Square I'm gonna gamble and say Final Fantasy related shenanigans
THQ Tony Hawks HD

please no fifa kinect or so from ea sports. i mean, i like kinect and it's great for games like dance central or kinect sports or even steel battalion but games like fifa are just perfect with controller and nothing else. only way i see it could be better is on wii u where you can do substitutions, tacticts and so on on the tablet screen without the need to go in the menu. sure i wouldn't have to play it with kinect but then it's only the announcement of the next fifa/madden which is nothing i need at e3^^



^do you think EA will make Fifa 13 Kinect required
always optional,and should be about voice control only
or maybe+something like write your face to your pro

I'm thinking Madden or Tiger Woods (or don't they already have it?)
