Following talk that Microsoft is to announce two new major games in its E3 press conference, videogaming247 has learnt from trusted sources that the announcements are to be “interesting, partly spectacular and a bit desperate.”

The insider added: “Let’s put it this way: they’re worried the current line-up can’t carry Q4 for the entire Xbox brand in the core market. You’ll laugh when you see what they’re planning.”

Can't wait for Master Chief Kart! 

How can this be? 360 owners have spent endless hours telling us why their games for the rest of the year will OWN the PS3 line up!

But then again....Microsoft....desperate....hmmmm

Master Chief and Banjo at the Olympic Games with X-mote. Definitely.

Remake of GoldenEye!! Exclusive for the 360!! ZOMG!!

X-Play , X-Fit , X-Sports + Wii Mote.

'Desperate' could mean just about anything ...

I wouldn't be surprised if this was hinting at Microsoft copying Nintendogs, Animal Crossing, Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Brain Training, or Mario Party though.

Good thing the Wii was just a fad, and an entirely different market, and nothing to do with XBOX and it wasn't safe ...........

Let see how MSFT prepares for standing against Nintendo great E3 lineup........ (haven't heard anything yet)

maybe it's Battle Arena Toshinden 5!

well, let's look at what they have in E3 last year.

Halo 3
they showed off Halo War
they showed off BioShock
they showed off Mass Effect.


that was a HUGE E3 for them. they just don't have that type of of AAA games this time around

If microsoft does anything they will be labeled as desperate.
