What can we expect? This year, Microsoft is said to be pushing more of its own exclusive line-up than third-party games. But that's not to say it'll be lacking - in fact, the showcase is said to be so packed that 90 minutes isn't enough.
We can easily expect strong first looks at Halo 5: Guardians, Forza Motorsport 6, Fable Legends and Rise of the Tomb Raider, which are launching later this year and are all perfect to show off on an E3 stage.
