  5. Will Xbox announce a first-party/second-party (through Global Publishing) Japanese-developed game? Yes with Kojima (likely at Game Awards)
  6. What will Xbox bring to The Game Awards? (Pick up to 3, 1 point for each, any category) Kojima announcement, Fable trailer, Banjo (give me bonus points if this is in conjunction with Nintendo)
  7. What announced titles will re-emerge this year (Pick up to 5, 1 point for each) Not sure what qualifies here but how about Fable, Forza Motorsport, Project Mara, The Last Night, Skate 4 (Perfect Dark and Indiana Jones are probably still a year off from the next big reveal)
  8. What will be the highest-rated Xbox Game Studios/Bethesda-published game? Forza Motorsport
  9. What will be the theme of Forza Horizon 5’s first expansion? James Bond
  10. Will XO return? Yes
  11. Will Todd Howard’s E3 presentation on Starfield be over or under 20 minutes long? Under but with multiple follow-up sessions. In fact, I can imagine a lengthy gameplay deep dive immediately following the E3 presentation similar to Nintendo Treehouse.
  12. Will Starfield be delayed? No but it may ship incomplete with expansions coming at a later date.
  13. Which Xbox/Bethesda Studios will announce new games? (Pick 5, 1 point for each correct answer. No Global Publishing). Compulsion, The Coalition, ID Software, Roundhouse, Double Fine

  15. Will Xbox acquire any studios in 2022? Yes

  18. Will Hellblade 2 release in 2022? No
  19. Will the Xbox release of Deathloop have a subtitle on the end? (i.e. Director’s Cut, Deathinitive Edition, etc.) Sure
  20. Will Xbox announce a new game with a Disney IP (Star Wars, Lucasfilm, etc.)? Not with a XGS or Bethesda studio at the charge at least.

Round 2: Bold Questions (Worth 5 points each minimum)
