On Sony's original PlayStation, there were no better platformers than the Crash Bandicoot trilogy. All three games gave everything one desires from the genre: star wars outlaws challenge, beautiful art, and rewarding secrets. The next generation wasn't as kind to the mascot, and he was nearly silent on the PS3 and Xbox
Now that Piranha Plant and Joker from Persona 5 are out for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , fans of Nintendo's ambitious crossover fighting game are waiting to see the next character to join the DLC lineup. There have been various "leaks" about who that character might be, with the most popular theory being that Erdrick from Dragon Quest will be joining the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster next. Whoever the next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character is, it seems likely that Nintendo will reveal their identity at E3 2019, especially since the game is already confirmed for the s
One of the big selling points for the Xbox Game Pass service is the fact that it has all of Microsoft's first-party games, and this includes the entire Gears of War franchise. Every Gears of War game offers local co-op for the campaign, and Gears of War 2 onward also features Horde Mode as well. Players can play through the entire Gears of War saga from the beginning on Xbox Game Pass, all the way up to the most recent main series game, Gears 5 . The games have all aged well for the most part, offering players intense, action-packed campaigns that are a blast to play through in local co
Players took the role of Banjo with his bird friend Kazooie. Together, you venture out to stop the evil plans of Gruntilda, an evil witch who only wants to benefit herself. Jigsaw pieces and musical notes are needed to progress to new zones, encouraging exploration and interacting with the game's charming characters. The latest entry in the series was a vehicle-building title rather than a platformer, resulting in many fans disliking the departure.
Bethesda will once again be at E3 2019, but it's hard to say exactly what it will present at the show. At the time of this writing, the only confirmed Bethesda game for E3 2019 is Doom: Eternal , but it also seems likely that Wolfenstein: Young Blood and Quake Champions will be featured as well. However, that lineup seems a little light to justify an entire E3 press conference, and so we expect Bethesda has some surprises up its sleeve. We know that The Elder Scrolls 6 won't be at E3 , but maybe Bethesda's flagship franchise will be represented in another manner, like with the announcement of a Morrowind or Oblivion remas
Lionhead Studio's Fable was the Xbox's flagship RPG franchise. While infamous for Peter Molyneux's grand unfulfilled technological promises, it still managed to please legions of Microsoft fans for years throughout the company's first two consoles. Sadly, the company closed in 2016 , leaving an upcoming title in the series canceled. The franchise's future is currently up in the air, though Phil Spencer has hinted at a possible comeback several times in recent years. Whatever happens, it probably won't involve Molyn
If the rumors are to be believed, Fable 4 is exactly the kind of game that the Xbox One should've had in droves; an expansive and innovational RPG that takes the ideas behind the original trilogy and uses them to create a truly next-gen experience. Better yet, it's also proof that Xbox wants to create long-lasting and investable franchises that, much like PlayStation has done with God of War , can alter and evolve with the ti
Due to the success of Rainbow Six Siege , it seemed unlikely that the franchise would return to PvE, but that's exactly what's happening next year. But instead of delivering a typical tactical shooter Rainbow Six experience, Ubisoft is going in a completely different direction with Rainbow Six Quarantine . Combining the horror genre with the Rainbow Six franchise should make for an interesting mix, to say the least, and we're anxious to see Rainbow Six Quarantine in act
This prediction seems a little less likely now that we know Anthem won't be part of the EA Play 2019 lineup , but the game is still going to be at E3 2019 in some capacity. With Anthem 's playerbase shrinking and the remaining community often upset with the game, it seems like making it free-to-play could give it a shot in the arm to keep it alive for at least a little while lon
With the E3 2019 festivities starting on June 8 with EA Play, we decided to put together our predictions for what we will see at the show. Some of these predictions seem to have a good chance of happening, while others are a bit more out there. Come E3, it will be interesting to see which predictions are proved true, and which ones didn't quite pan
In an effort to create more Xbox console-exclusives, Microsoft has been on a spending spree of acquiring studios. Last year's E3 saw Microsoft announce the acquisition of a number of studios, and we expect that trend to continue at E3 2019, especially with the news that Sony is also buying studios to bolster the PS5 first-party lineup. As for which studios Microsoft may announce it's acquired at E3 2019, that's less clear. The leaker that leaked the Microsoft E3 2019 press conference suggested that IO Interactive, Asobo, and Relic Entertainment are all potentially going to join Xbox Game Studios, but we'll have to wait for E3 to be s
