Microsoft
First comes Microsoft who will take the stage first on the 4th of June in their now traditional opening spot. With the recent news that more people are spending time using apps than playing games I fully expect that Microsoft will spend a significant amount of time trumpeting the exact figures and along with this announcing some new content partners for streaming video as well as a revamped music rental or purchasing system. Kinect will also play a large part perhaps with an improved dashboard interface with improved voice recognition. Not that games will be under represented I fully expect to hear the latest on Fable the Journey and I believe that Halo 4 will take the closing spot of the presentation also Harmonix have been rumoured to have a presence at the Microsoft show perhaps using Rock Band Blitz to announce the next Xbox Live Arcade Promotion.
