I’m going to watch just to see the new Stalker 2 trailer.

OK I lied - I am also going to watch to see how bad Fable and Indy are. I like a dumpster fire. It excites me.

Looking forward to DOOM. Love DOOM and was always bummed that it may have been exclusive. But considering Xbox hardware is over… glad it’s coming.

I expect this to be an Activision and Bethesda third party show.

I’m sure MS will also announce vaporware 5 years away.

Exactly, every Xbox show in the last decade has sucked, this will be no different. It will just look relatively decent since SGF and SOP were so abysmal.
Looking back all Xbox events have been garbage because ultimately most of their games end up flopping and disappointing. There is no Xbox equivalent of the great PlayStation events of the past.

They can announce a new Gears or Halo and pretend it's going to be different this time but the only difference is likely to be the game eventually releasing on PlayStation.

Yep, Xbox games at these shows either don't release for 4+ more years or end up as mediocre duds like Redfall, Starfield, Halo Infinite, Forza Motorsport, etc.

Usually both, not only do they take a long time to release but they also disappoint. over-promising and under-delivering has been Xbox mantra since Phil Spencer has been in charge.
