| E3 2014: ‘Halo: The Master Chief Collection’ Announced |
 |

As expected, Halo was in action at E3 2014 during the Microsoft press conference. But while you might have been expecting the next game in the series, Halo 5: Guardians, it was instead the announcement of a new collection called Halo: The Master Chief Collection that took the spotlight. The collection will include the original game, Halo: Combat Evolved. It will include Halo 2, which is getting the 10-year anniversary HD makeover treatment. It will include Halo 3 and Halo 4. It will include all multiplayer maps and levels, and everything will be unlocked from the start if you wish to jump right to a certain chapter from the get-go. And it will include a live-action series produced by Ridley Scott titled Halo: Nightfall. All on one disc; all running at 1080p and 60 fps; and all for the single-game price of $59.99. A pretty incredible deal if you’re a Halo junkie. You can see a video for the Master Chief Collection below, which also acts as something of a teaser for Halo 5: Guardians.

In the video you can check out below, Mass Effect 4 is discussed first with a few teeny tiny mini-teases of the game. It’s only “conceptual prototype” footage, but enough to be excited about.

| E3 2014: ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’ Gameplay Peek
One of the hopes of this year’s E3 convention was that some of the Star Wars video games being developed by the subsidiaries of Electronic Arts, namely Star Wars: Battlefront, would be shown off in greater depth than that very brief teaser we saw last year. Sadly, this was not to be. But while we didn’t get the previews we wanted, Battlefront was teased again in a much different way. EA opened their press conference with a behind-the-scenes video showing off what’s going into making the game, including visiting the real-world shooting locations of the original Star Wars movies, and some very brief peeks at what the game itself is looking like. It’s not much, but it’s well worth seeing if you’re a Star Wars fan anticipating Battlefront. You can watch the video below.
