Rumor: Microsoft’s E3 ’07 line-up leaked
It’s been making its rounds on the web, and it’s interesting alright. Forum-goer Xeoset on the Wii60 forums posted Microsoft‘s E3 ’07 lineup which supposedly came from an E3 Floor Manager. (And yes, we’ve heard the “Oooh, someone’s gonna get fired” reactions, but we’ll be staying away from that.)
So what’s on the list? We tell you, not all of them make sense, so let’s try and decipher what they must mean:
- Microsoft start first at 6.30pm GMT+0:00. (Fact)
- New Crimson Skies game to be announced.
- Bungie working on new title/series not related to anything in the Halo/Marathon Universe.
- Epic Games to show some form of Gears of War 2 Trailer.
- Microsoft have bought the Star Wars Battlefront 3 rights. Trailer/Demo to be shown.
- Rare to show off Banjo Kazooie 3 (Banjo-Theerie).
- Rare to announce 2 new games.
- Rare to announce Kameo 2.
- Lionhead Studios show more of Fable 2.
- Microsoft to fund a new game based on Jason Bourne. It’ll be based on the books and not the film with Matt Damon.
- Team Ninja to show off Ninja Gaiden 2. Labeled 360 Exclusive.
- Apparently there’s news of a MGS Game for the 360. May or may not be the 4th Installment.
- Dead Rising 2 to be shown. May not be ready.
Did we read that right? Metal Gear Solid for the Xbox 360 which may or may not be MGS 4? Big news indeed, IF it’s true. And a Ninja Gaiden iteration exclusively for Microsoft’s console? Well, Microsoft might as well make its E3 appearance as grand as possible if what Gamecock says about this year’s E3 being the last ever comes true.
But what of this “leaked line-up”, if it’s going to be another rumored list like that of Nintendo‘s? Nothing really, just the opportunity to say that “Yeah, we’ve heard about that” if some of these become true. Or maybe this is just another one of those “hyping the Microsoft presentation” so you’ll be interested in what it has for the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) this year. You never know. Let’s wait and see if this supposed Microsoft E3 line-up holds water.
E3 will be held on July 11 to July 13 at Santa Monica, California.
