I should know better, but I'm still holding my breath for something, anything, for Flight Simulator.
PC gaming is big in Germany, so i wouldn't be surprised if they show something. of course that's assuming they have anything to show. don't think we got much of an indication on how far along it is in development at E3.
Remember, this upcoming Flight Simulator is coming to Xbox One as well, so it wouldn't just be PC gaming related. I'd really like to see how close to the PC version they'll be able to keep it.

Honestly, given the collapse of the flight simulator genre as a whole, and the pillars that came out of the ashes that crash....we're probably going to see a release model comparable to Eagle Dynamics' DCS in terms of much tighter content control than back in FSX. So, putting aside controller and display support, the game might be very similar between Xbox and PC (which'll be necessary because no one in hell do they not make that cross-platform multiplayer compatible). DLC modules (which were a thing back in FSX, and co-exist with modding today), scaling graphics across platforms (including older PCs), etc.
Wow, The Surge 2--the Souls-esque sequel that...no one asked for? :?
The Surge was actually pretty good. a clear step up from Lords of the Fallen and The Surge 2 looks to be a similar improvement. i'm definitely looking forward to it.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands 2: Tom Clanicer Ghostier Reconiest Wildlands
I'd much, much rather that than The Division 3: With A Ghost Recon-y Skin On It that it appeared to be before. Or is it still? I wasn't able to watch.
I loved Wildlands (unexpectedly, I must admit, but it became my 2017 GOTY), and bounced super hard off The Division, so I have been strongly in "wait and see" mode for this one. You keep your Division out of my Wildlands, Ubisoft.

It's not Souls-esque though. Really diminishes the game to describe it as such. That perception kind of hurt it (and a lot of other games).
I honestly thought it was (and so does Undead Scottsman by the looks of it?)
It's "souls-like" in the sense that any 3d shooter with guns and keys is a "doom-like" or something. If you die you drop your stuff, if you die again you don't get it back, it's likely that you'll die a lot. There's no multi/invasions in Surge (at all). Progression is driven by the slicing and stuff, and is generally very methodical. There's only a few bosses.
But the "Souls-like" label really needs to go away, imo.

I honestly don't particularly like the actual Dark Souls franchise (never played Bloodborne), but the term seems extremely pervasive.

I thought Wildlands was inferior to The Division honestly.
The AI was kind of clownshoes in Wildlands, vehicle physics (and control) felt like amateur work compared to GTA and the DLC was basically a chore.
Getting 100% achievements in that cured me of any further interest in the franchise, not sure I’d play Breakpoint even for free.

Yeah, it's not going away. but it hurts more than it helps as a descriptor, imo.

From what I played, Wildlands was indeed superior to The Division, typical TC cringy-ness aside.
Just don't force me to play with other human players if I don't want to, and when I shoot someone, don't have numbers flying off them until they fall over. I want to be able to headshot dudes from half a mile out with a silenced sniper rifle as long as I am tall, and then sneak up on their mates when they're looking the other way.
Which reminds me, where the hell is my new Splinter Cell.

It certainly wasn't perfect. I ignored the DLC after seeing a lot of bad about it, and the vehicle control was awful. (Actually I liked the original helicopter control, glad they put that back in, much hilarity could ensue from that.)

Whoa this is nice! I play PUBG with my brother but now I won't event have to activate my dusty PS4 to do it!
I downloaded the game preview when they showed it off a while ago, but never loaded it up. I did like the look of it

edit: also need to go back and play The Surge... Elex too.
What is that? I can't see it clearly!
People are thirsty for scifi-Souls.

Looks like it. "That's right, pathetic peasants confined to the ground! Fight! Fight and die for my amusement as I fly over you!"

I'm not watching along, what does this mean?

Emile and Kat are in Gears of War 5's horde mode as heroes.
Some Halo Reach characters are coming to Gears 5.
A very safe, very acceptable type of crossover. The Terminator is getting into Gears 5 multiplayer after all.
Not the characters I'd have expected them to use
She did die in a manner that would make her the lost Carmine sister.
I'm the same with the characters from Reach in general.
