So Halo 6 and Elder Scrolls 6 gave a glimpse of their knickers but nothing from Fable 4.
I think a new Doom is on the way too.

Morning all,
Very quiet morning. Everyone tire themselves out with E3 excitement?
I've read highlights of Microsoft's e3- don't care for any of their main halo/GoW/Forza exclusives so I'd be disappointed if it were me. A lot of promise for the future though.
Bethesda: they've gone beyond themselves. Announcing a new elder Scrolls on a console that hasn't been announced yet? So 2022 probably at the earliest?
I did appreciate the sketch of "Skyrim for Alexa"

Mornin'
Division 2 looked sweet eh? Hopefully see more of that tonight in the Ubi briefing. A new Splinter Cell and Skull & Bones too i'm guessing.
I took my Sector 9 out for a roll yesterday. First time this year and it was magical. Up and down a couple of miles of canal towpath, headphones in, sun shining. It was beautiful, man. Skateboarding is still the tits.

Morning all.
Re: Bethesda. They announced Skyrim almost three years before it was released, so nothing new here. It'll be released when it's released.
Cracked on with Max last night, clearing some minefields. That's a few more areas cleared of Scrotus' influence. Now to visit Pink Eye.

Morning!
Microsoft continue to show they're listening. Good presentation. Lots of games. Just hope they pull them all off. Highlights for me were Cyberpunk (of course), Division 2 (aside from the cringy group playing*) and Dying Light 2. As soon as I saw that UV light turn on in the trailer I had a small internal cheer. Although most of the better looking games are cross platform, it was still a good move by MS to get the premiers.
The rest of my weekend consisted of attending a wedding, good, watching the Fury fight, shite, and playing lots of WoW, good. 4*s all told.
*Why do devs insist on these types of trailers? No one speaks like they do when playing. No one. Ever. It's embarrassing.

watching the Fury fight, shite, Fury has always been terrible to watch, he has this awkward southpaw style and he tends to wrap around opponents like an octopus. I think he has an outside chance of beating AJ though if he takes it seriously (and I am not convinced he is taking it seriously yet). Also, was it is his dad that shouted "stop fuckin' about"?

You're right, in that he's never been very exciting to watch, but he absolutely needed to prove himself, and didn't. Pretty much just put himself out to pasture. He's just given Joshua/ Wilder all the ammunition they need to dodge him for a long time. It'll be a tough ask to start climbing that ladder again for him. Shame really, as having him at his best would make for an exciting time in the division. Now all we have to look forward to is a couple of AJ/ Wilder fights, possibly a trilogy if Wilder gets a couple of those bombs on target. Although, I am tempted by the Whyte/ Parker fight. Not at PPV prices, but certainly worth a trip to the pub to watch.

morning all,
DOS2 frustration, hit the wall a bit at level 15 where enemies are a tad OP but it's tricky finding missions to level up which don't involve game breaking fights. So I loaded up the Divide et Impera mod for Rome 2.
Have taken Sicily and reminded of the drawbacks in having settlements lost to small naval attacks, irritating at best.
Filmblog Watched Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon. Cracking stuff, it's a black humour mockumentary about a killer setting up for a kill in the style of your slasher films. Picks the genre to bits so plenty of in-jokes, definitely worth a watch if you're a slasher move fan and even if you aren't.

Also I agree it's likely to be on the PS5 and whatever ridiculous name MS conjure up for the Xbox One successor with the current consoles unable to run it. I'm hoping it's all nine regions, VR compatible and strictly a single player experience.

I don't think this fight will have any impact on fury getting to fight Joshua/wilder the former hasn't backed down from anyone yet and fury always has the "I'm the real champion" card and the fight would generate too much money to be ignored. I think fury would beat Joshua too, he reminds me of Mayweather.

I assumed it was just voiceover from the main command or whatever. It was pretty tragic.

What is this, Chatterboxing?
I caught up with Bethesda's show earlier this morning. Is Andrew WK now forever associated with Rage 2? That song was good for all kinds of stuff.
Well, I said I wanted loads of games, and I already got more than I can keep in my head. I loved how Microsoft and Bethesda both highlighted how shitty EA's offering was, as if that wasn't expected.

I think fury would beat Joshua too, he reminds me of Mayweather. I think Fury at his best would probably be favourite over Joshua, but then again Joshua is improving at a good rate, so, by the time it's organised, it could be a very different story. Thinking realistically about a Fury fight and we're 2-3 years off imo. A couple of mandatory defences (Joshua has always said he doesn't want to lose a belt by any means), 2-3 fights with Wilder, depending on results, and we're already in 2020. In any case, I won't be shelling out for a Fury fight any time soon.

Manuel Charr has a mandatory coming up, I expect Fury will fight the winner of that and win the WBA belt (AJ has the WBA "Super" belt) that way. Then expect months, if not years of Fury causing mischief in tweets and interviews about whoever has the other belts and generally making daft demands for money. Whether Fury goes on to win any of the other main belts is really up to how seriously he takes it all (I have my doubts).

And you thought that Cricket was bad.
Since Shenguin complained about being stuck in Hell on Earth I picture playing Doom 2 with him as Doomguy. Shenguin rage!
