10 Most Anticipated Games Of E3 2017

Jack of Blades has managed to remain one of my all-time favourite antagonists in a video game. Partly down to his badass personality, but mostly for that iconic mask. Jack of Blades doesn't make an appearance in the sequel and threequel, and I think if the new game was to be set after the events of the first game, then having some way of summoning him back to Albion would be a good way to bring back an iconic evil charac


While the previous 3 games have been loosely open-world with linear paths and sections, the fact that we've seen Playground Games offer a vast open-world with Forza Horizon 4 points to us getting something massive for Fable. Additionally, with the focus on SSD power these days , it's likely we'll see a seamless world that's relatively free of loading scre


There are, however, a few third-party titles that Microsoft has included as part of their press conferences in past years, that should be front and center once again — chiefly among them Modern Warfare 3 . With the map exclusivity deal between Microsoft and Call of Duty comes an assumption that Microsoft will be the company to show off the first demo of the g


Like Death Stranding , Halo 6 was another game we were told wouldn't be at E3. However, with Microsoft debuting the Xbox One X at the show, there was still the possibility that the company was just trying to lead fans astray to later surprise them at E3 with a reveal of Master Chief's next Adventure games tips running on the new system. Sadly for Halo fans, Microsoft kept its word and Halo 6 wasn't revealed at E3, but the timing is right for the game to make a big splash at next year's s


When E3 2017 begins, there should be no shortage of heavy hitters on display from Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and more. While there are sure to be a number of exciting games at the event, though, the 10 following games in particular all stand a chance at stealing the s


On the hardware and software side of things, rumors have been suggesting that Microsoft might finally unveil Project Opara. According to early details, Opara would be Microsoft’s answer to something like Hulu Plus or iTunes, offering subscription-based television shows for Xbox Live, Windows PCs, and Windows Phones. Since this particular conference will be in direct competition with Steve Jobs’ keynote at WWDC , it would make sense that something a little Apple-esque might be shown


Regardless of how the story and setting would go, I think Jack of Blades would be able to harness some form of evil powers to return once again and cause havoc in the world. Whether the player takes on the role of a new hero or even having some ties to the hero from the first game could obviously result in good old Jacko wanting to seek revenge before looking to unleash h


Having a voice helps make the conversations feel more natural, and if we had a way to choose how our characters voice sounded like Dragon Age did, it'd help add that flair to the customisation of your hero. Or perhaps it'll just do what Cyberpunk 2077 does and makes you feel as if you're experiencing a character's journey rather than your


Another game to watch for during Sony's press conference is the God of War soft reboot. While it doesn't abandon the events that came before it, the new God of War is taking Kratos in a much different direction, giving him a wider range of emotions and adding his son to the mix. The game is also trading Greek mythology for Norse mythology, which should allow for fresh enemy types and new weapons for players to mas


And then there was Skyrim . While we don’t know if for sure Elder Scrolls: Skyrim will make an appearance during a press conference, one would assume that given Bethesda’s previous success with launching Oblivion on the Xbox 360 console first, that Skyrim would be touted as more connected with Micros

Gameplay itself is a nice blend of action elements with those traditional to an RPG. On the offense, a melee weapon, long range weapon and magical will powers are always available, each assigned to a different face button. For defense, numerous gear combinations are available to ensure you’ll always be protected in the heat of battle. Plus you can block and roll. Enemies tend to rush you and offer quite a challenge for those unfamiliar with the proper strategies. Grinding isn’t a common occurrence, but going into battle well stocked with items is always necessary. While it’s not the deepest system, it’s still arguably the best one in the Fable series and remains enjoyable today.

There’s something odd about an HD port built for a console which itself has games that are being ported to a superior console. Let’s reflect on Fable Anniversary for a second: it’s a 2014 Xbox 360 remake of an Xbox game from 2004. We’re in an age where people are demanding for spectacular looking games like Grand Theft Auto V and The Last of Us to be ported to Xbox One and PS4, and this is an Xbox 360 port of an original Xbox game. As such, judging it is fairly hard to do after spending countless hours over the past few months scrutinizing next-gen ports like Tomb Raider, Madden 25 and Call of Duty: Ghosts, when Fable Anniversary would be a resounding success if it matched the 360 quality of any of them. Still, while a remake of Fable might have been better suited for release before Fable II or as a three-pack with its sequels on Xbox One before Fable IV (please?), the sheer fact that Lionhead and Microsoft care to do it at all is great fan service for players who have had to deal with an antiquated game — classic as it may be.
