Microsoft Sends Out E3 confrence Passes to Press, Portal is mentioned on it. - Games

[URL]http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2011/05/microsoft-e3-badge-hints-at-halo-star-wars-portal-reveals.ars[/URL] [quote] Microsoft has sent badges to members of the press allowing entry into their E3 press event, and boy, are they laden with expectation. We know that Nintendo and Sony both have new hardware to show off, but Microsoft is much more of an open question. What will be shown? Does the company have anything that will get players excited? The envelope came with a badge, and stickers you can use to fill in a few slots on the badge. The phrases, character names, and images come from a few large properties, including [I]Star Wars[/I], [I]Halo[/I], [I]Tomb Raider[/I], and [I]Portal[/I]. Take a look, and let's get to speculating! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FwNUE.jpg[/IMG] So what do we see? Lightsabers, Lancers, an energy sword, and the names Luke Skywalker and GLaDOS. We know there's a [I]Star Wars[/I] Kinect game on the way, and there's an image of the Kinect hardware right there. The rest of the images and names aren't quite as cut-and-dried. Will we finally see the HD-enabled remake of the original [I]Halo[/I]? Exclusive [I]Portal 2[/I] content? There's an image of a guitar; will there be a new rhythm game?[/quote] Glados Mentioned on a E3 Pass? Something tells me DLC reveal.

Probably the Portal 2 DLC

Portal 3.

Doesn't really sound like much to me.

[QUOTE=t h e;30019075]Doesn't really sound like much to me.[/QUOTE] Doesn't really make sense to put a game character from a game that is already out on a E3 Envelope

[QUOTE=zeldar;30019050]Portal 3.[/QUOTE] Portal 2 episode 3 the half life continuum

Portal 2: Episode 1

Not EP3.

I'll try to take pictures and post them here.

Master Chief too? To the Halo thread.

Maybe they'll do the whole PC/console connectivity with the 360 now that PSN is screwed to hell.

[QUOTE=Joyful Mystery;30019456]Maybe they'll do the whole PC/console connectivity with the 360 now that PSN is screwed to hell.[/QUOTE] you do realize that will never happen and that PSN is back up and running

Steamworks for xbox 360 probably. Think about it, what else could it be? I find it unlikely they would showcase a DLC on microsoft's conference. They'd rather do it on sony's or EA's.

Keep in mind, that batman and Lara croft are also there. Which, as I understand, are both cross platform. So, I doubt it really means anything, MS are probably just capitalizing on a new popular game.

Can't wait for the DLC. After beating both parts of Portal 2. There is nothing else but playing custom chambers. Which gets boring after a while.

Hell I want a DLC with Old aperture chambers [sp]they can also add the unused carol voiceclips[/sp]

They just want to asslick valve.

Not interested, rather see any new info on the 3DS, or the NGP instead of more Kinect games, Halo, Portal Kinect(maybe), more Kinect games, and almost no non-Kinect games.

So we're getting something Portal-y at E3, most likely the new DLC, with Advanced Chambers, Challenges, and maybe some other stuff.

[QUOTE=ironman17;30021396]So we're getting something Portal-y at E3, most likely the new DLC, with Advanced Chambers, Challenges, and maybe some other stuff.[/QUOTE] Knowing MS, it will cost 10 dollars/800MS points while the PS3 and PC get it for free.

Late, they've said it was free for all.

[QUOTE=ForcedDj;30021448]Knowing MS, it will cost 10 dollars/800MS points while the PS3 and PC get it for free.[/QUOTE] I think the first update on xbox is free the rest cost $$

Ah Halo stuff? Let's see the Halo CE remake!

[QUOTE=ForcedDj;30021448]Knowing MS, it will cost 10 dollars/800MS points while the PS3 and PC get it for free.[/QUOTE] If you have an XBL game your first update is free, the rest costs cash. That means they're gonna make it good.

Hold the phone... ...something might be revealed... at an [b]XBOX[/b] booth/conference?

[QUOTE=brandonsh;30025514]Hold the phone... ...something might be revealed... at an [b]XBOX[/b] booth/conference?[/QUOTE] I hope not, but didn't they announce Portal 2 at Sony's keynote or something? Hell, I don't remember. I'm old.

[QUOTE=naikrovek;30026301]I hope not, but didn't they announce Portal 2 at Sony's keynote or something? Hell, I don't remember. I'm old.[/QUOTE] No, Portal 2 was announced in Game Informer months prior.

[QUOTE=Randdalf;30026452]No, Portal 2 was announced in Game Informer months prior.[/QUOTE] Thank you.

[QUOTE=naikrovek;30026301]I hope not, but didn't they announce Portal 2 at Sony's keynote or something? Hell, I don't remember. I'm old.[/QUOTE] That was steam on PS3.

Left 4 Dead 3 Only its L4D2 with all of L4D1 added and its called L4D3 because its for PS3.
