We had a large debate last year about the separation of author and creation, but when the game is specifically based on his abhorrent views that argument collapses. In my opinion.

You're forgetting Inside Xbox @ E3 at 23:00, where there's set to be even more reveals.

Didn't they only just start work on it about a year ago?
If so I wouldn't be surprised if it's next gen as I don't think 2 or 3 years is long enough for a decent reboot of such a large franchise.

There was a thread about it on resetera last week. I’m pretty sure it’s still in development, just taking a while. I wanted to see it too because it looks quality. I imagine the controversy is why MS didn’t want it in their conference though.

I think the guy appeared at the PC Gaming Show last year so outside shot it might appear there.

I don't believe so, Ironhide, although I did notice one as being pretty visible when one guy was playing a game.

Microsoft impresses with its tenacity and honesty at E3

Xbox refuses to play next-gen poker.

It was a great show, moving at a brisk clip, unburdened with cringeworthy banter, peppered with noteworthy announcements and premieres, and positively stuffed with games: 50 of the things, a lot of them looking rather good. Just as significantly, it felt addressed to Xbox gamers directly, rather than pundits, analysts and stakeholders.

But perhaps more importantly, Microsoft's E3 2018 media briefing was straight-talking - almost shockingly so for an E3 presser. It didn't pretend that Xbox doesn't have a weakness in exclusive games, and it had a long-term solution to propose. It talked about the future and it addressed the elephant in the room - the distant but quite clearly audible rumblings of an approaching new console generation - with candour and confidence, and without seeking to pull the wool of the eyes of the console-buying audience, or to use the information, or lack of it, as a strategic chip in the battle with its rival, PlayStation.
